    I assume you're talking about on this site and not on your own site? A staff member can confirm, but I think post counts and achievements were recounted recently. If so, this is most likely what caused the change.
  2. Randy Calvert
    Or do you really need Elasticsearch? Try turning it off awhile and see if it fixes the problem.

    100 percent this. I’m still trying to fully wrap my head around the actual value it can bring. I’m sure it’s there… just have to find it. I was thinking as a way of looking at trends or reviewing registrations, or running a FAQ, etc. Not replying to posts. And absolutely agree on the spammers! Typically bumping an old 2 year old post with a half wit reply, and then hours/days later, replying again (often quoting themselves) with links.

    This also goes to show as much as Google loves to preach speed and performance… it’s somewhat of a do as I say and not as I do. Between their ad code and analytics code… Google has a long way to go to clean up their own house. 🙂

    It most likely means you have a 3rd party resource or theme that is not compatible with PHP8. Go to ACP and click on "Support" in the upper right hand corner. There will be an option to disable resources there. Did that solve your problem? If so, one of your customizations is the problem. Turn them on one by one till you find your culprit.

    If you wanted to change the default, you could have clicked on the pencil icon for the new language pack. On the screen that appears, the last option will be to change the default language. Regardless, I'm glad you came to a resolution!
  7. Randy Calvert
    Is that locked language pack set as the default? Try setting a different language as default and try again.
  8. Randy Calvert
    Look in the marketplace. It’s not in core.
  9. Randy Calvert
    No. There is not a “is visible” trigger. I don’t think you can trigger a zap based on future dated content being posted. You can suggest this in the feedback forum.

    Have you asked your host to provide the cron logs to see what is going on? Also when making the change did you do as the error message says and dismiss it for a day? That message won’t just go away when it fixes. It only runs every so often. So unless you dismissed it and it came back after your change it may already be fixed. Also all support starts on these forums. If something requires advanced troubleshooting, staff will convert it to an email ticket for you. This is so others can learn about issues and find more fixes self service. It also lets other members chime in with their own experiences and help resolve things.

    OK. If it’s on an FTP server…. That FTP server is not automatically accessible to WWW. That means there is no way for a browser potentially to access that file. Browsers no longer support things like ftp://www.domain.com/somefile.jpg In addition to the above, FTP is not secure and can be be read by 3rd parties in transmission. If you really want to do something like this, instead of using FTP, mount the other server’s storage space via NFS and treat it like a local folder in IPB storage methods. That NFS mount might be something like /mount/share/somefile.jpg

    ACP > System > Smart Community > Features Then click on Settings under the Live Topics space. Set the groups that can host and moderate live topics. Once that is done, hosts can find the option in the ModCP.

    When you upload a file to AWS, it's using HTTP(S) to post the image via an API. That is a one-time transfer from your server to AWS servers. Once it is there, anytime the file is called, it's delivered directly from AWS via the bucket URL. Meaning AWS is the one delivering the image instead of your server. If you were to implement FTP, while it would not be difficult to upload the file... downloading it would be much more difficult. Modern browsers no longer allow the FTP protocol in the browser. (For example with Chrome, it was removed in version 59.) This means IPS would have to each time it was requested, login to the FTP server and download it... then deliver it to the user. That would dramatically increase the work on the server, slow down the delivery of the site (because it has to be downloaded and then sent to the user), and increase bandwidth on both the web and FTP servers.
  14. Randy Calvert
    I’m sorry to hear that. Hopefully you can find something similar then. 😞
  15. Randy Calvert
    And just to confirm, this still happens when all third party plugins and applications are disabled?
  16. Randy Calvert
    Does this happen if he tries a different browser? Does this happen if you login as him from the ACP?

    2015 was when the initial release of IPB 4.0 was made. That's even assuming you were running an updated version at the time. It's technically possible, but would take SIGNIFICANT effort. I don't know personally if it would be worth it.
  18. Randy Calvert
    One of them is your problem. So you might try turning them on one by one till you find your problem. Once you do… you can hopefully work with the author to fix it.
  19. Randy Calvert
    Disable all your third party resources (plugins and applications). If that does not work, pull your server’s error logs (not inside of IPB… the server error logs themselves).
  20. Randy Calvert
    A tar file is like a ZIP file. You need to decompress it. The IPB software has no concept of generating or restoring a backup. You do that with your hosting provider. Once the files and databases are there, you can edit IPBs config file (conf_global.php) to point it to any new URL or database login details.
  21. Randy Calvert
    I would suggest setting up some rewrites outside of IPB on that domain and see if it works there. I'm betting you're going to find they don't work. It's most likely going to be an issue inside of your Apache httpd.conf for the site. If I was a betting man, I would put my money there.
  22. Randy Calvert
    Even though it's on the same physical server, the Apache configs and directives might be different. It's a server issue to to get rewrites working. So you (or your hosting provider) would need to troubleshoot why it's not working. IPS cannot do this for you.
  23. Randy Calvert
    You might want to check if the new server is allowing mod_rewrite. If not, it won't follow htaccess.
  24. Randy Calvert
    Did you make sure the new host meets all the system requirements? In looking at your new site, htaccess is not working. http://www.astrosurf.com/forum/3-astronomie-générale/ http://www.astrosurf.us/index.php?app=forums&module=forums&controller=forums&id=3
  25. Randy Calvert
    Did you upload an updated .htaccess file? Most FTP programs miss that file since it’s only an extension. You can download it from the ACP by searching “htaccess”.
