    I say the same thing each day I participate here! I’m always learning from the staff and power users here! The wealth of knowledge here is unbelievable.

    I like both rainbows AND unicorns!

    I believe nothing shows in that case.

    Sounds like you need to work with your hosting provider to get your PHP8 install fixed! You are missing some critical things that will absolutely break your site if missing. 🙂 Once it’s fixed and it shows as all green on PHP8, try your site on it then and you can move onto testing/fixing third party resources. Step one is to get the base software running with the required system modules.
  5. Randy Calvert
    Ok. 4.7.3 technically supported PHP8.1 (it was added in 4.7.0). Have you disabled all third party resources/applications and switched to a default theme? The next most likely thing that a 3rd party resource has an issue in PHP8 that does not exist in PHP7. By the way… only run that compatibility checker when on PHP8. That way if PHP8 is missing a module you will know! (We already know your PHP7 is fine.)
  6. Randy Calvert
    Is the version of IPB you’re running now compatible with PHP8? If not, you’ll need to do a manual upgrade. Disable all 3rd party applications & plugins. Switch to a default non-customized IPS theme. Switch your server to PHP 8. Use the compatibility checker script to confirm you have all of the required PHP modules installed in your PHP8. Manually upload the files of the new version from your client area to your server. Visit yourdomain.com/admin/upgrade and follow the prompts to do the upgrade. Check if any 3rd party modifications require an update (there's a button to manually check in the applications page). After you apply the updates you can safely re-enable those modifications. Go to your Support Page in ACP and fix any remaining issues listed on the page. If you still have disabled applications and/or plugins after the above steps, re-enable them 1 by 1 to make sure they are compatible with PHP 8.

    Your files are most likely under public_html. For many hosts, your www.domain.com is /home/username/public_html/

    Because the default mobile theme does not have a text box to enter a search keyword/phrase. It’s simply a link to the search page.

    It sounds like they don’t have the PHP handler setup in the Apache config properly. But there could be a dozen things causing this and without knowing the specifics of how Apache and PHP are setup it’s hard to give good advice. Also… something stupid to check… https://www.cloudbooklet.com/how-to-install-or-upgrade-php-8-1-on-ubuntu-20-04/?amp=1 sudo a2dismod php7.4 sudo a2enmod php8.1 That would obviously need fixed for your versions. Follow that by an Apache restart

    https://invisioncommunity.com/contact-us/ Choose Accounts and Billing. They can remove Gallery from your license which then would reduce the amount needed for renewal.

    There are numerous APIs related to Commerce. For example: https://invisioncommunity.com/developers/rest-api?endpoint=nexus/purchases/GETindex In terms of integrating with third parties, the easiest way to look at this in general is through using something like Zapier which has the ability to perform actions upon certain triggers occurring. You would be best served talking with a 3rd party resource developer to figure out specifics of what you’re looking to do and if the other store front has enough functionality programically to be leveraged within the IPB framework as it looks like you want to simply use the third party’s store system instead of IPBs commerce system.

    Nope… I’m not an IPS person. But I did say at a Holiday Inn Express last night! 😄

    This is because you are not using SSL. You need to work with your host to enable SSL for your site. Once it’s enabled, you can change your board path to use it. See the following guide:

    What is the membership number going to be used for? You could just use the subscriptions feature that promotes someone from a normal member group to your VIP or Premium group. At that point, they don’t have to remember a user ID that is different than their paid membership number. They get all the benefits/features based on being in that group (and optionally being moved out of it) if the subscription expires.

    It provides outbound email, but it is not a mail hosting service. Inbound email would have to be processed by API or POP3.

    Tickets don't show up in the client area. It is communication via email. So check your inbox (or spam folder) to find the correspondence. 🙂
  17. Randy Calvert
    It's like he has a crystal ball! 😄
  18. Randy Calvert
    If you create (or add to) your constants.php file, you can enable the ability to use beta builds. <?php define( 'USE_DEVELOPMENT_BUILDS', TRUE ); This would then make the ACP updater update you to beta builds.

    Would it be possible to add the ability to mark content read within Gallery? If a bunch of images are added, there is no way to mark those as read within the activity stream to more easily track new content. It requires marking the full site as read.

    Support has been migrated to these forums. IPS staff participate and provide support here. If there is something advanced, the team has the ability to move the request to a ticket. Basically things start here. If it can't be finished here, the staff will move it to a ticket for you. 🙂

    Marc... I *think* he may be referring to:
  22. Randy Calvert
    You could ALWAYS change the logo and it has always pointed to the application’s root path. So if you have IPB in domain.com/forum, the logo would always take you to /forum when you clicked on the logo. It has never been possible to pick for the logo to be mapped to a custom URL.
  23. Randy Calvert
    There is no reason it could not be done in Pages. You would not be able to just copy/paste the exact code (table names would be different, etc) but pages or even custom applications could absolutely handle this. It would have most likely been easier to do from Pages to start with as it would have handled providing a system to enter data only for approved people automatically.
  24. Randy Calvert
    Yes. It’s not a normal background task.
  25. Randy Calvert
    By the way… even if you don’t move to IPS cloud… I would recommend consolidating everything into the IPB framework. It’s so much easier having a single source of truth for even the basic functions like user management, permissions, and being able to control everything from a single pane of glass.
