  1. Either don’t set a custom landing page or make the landing page publicly accessible. You don’t have to make the full site accessible… but remember a manifest file can be read by guests, so it needs somewhere to go. 😉
  2. This is not currently possible. I use AWS S3 storage for the gallery. It’s costs are super low for storage and helps me not worry about it.
  3. Set pages as the default app per the steps above. That will make the forums not be the default with you type in your domain. Once that’s done, you can tell Pages which individual page to serve.
  4. If you have a sensitive issue, just post a topic and ask for a staff member to open a ticket for you. By the way… a slow query log is not sensitive info. There is nothing there is going to compromise your server. (The MySQL user may be shown but MySQL should not be accessible outside of localhost or implicit trusted remote hosts AND it does not display a password. So there is compensating security controls that prevent exploitation. It’s like someone knowing your name is “John” and thinking you have enough info to compromise his identity with only that detail.)
  5. What do you want to be shown by default? If it’s a pages app, do as @My Sharona mentioned and click the star for the pages app to make it the default application for your domain. Then go into the pages app and set whatever page you want to be the default to show.
  6. Glad it was squared away for you. DNS cache times can suck at times. 🙂
  7. They are not tables used by active IPB default install. Try renaming them to something else like OLD2 for a week. If nothing is broke by then, delete it. If something breaks, restore the original name and you can figure out what is using it (such as a plugin or application).
  8. It’s working for me. I see: Minecraft 1.8 utility mod [INVITE ONLY] Steal the victory with the Lucid minecraft 1.8 utility mod! Its possible your ISP has the old DNS entry cached.
  9. It can’t be set in Commerce as a group to be promoted to. It would cause a problem if it tries to move someone into a group that’s does not exist any longer.
  10. https://support.google.com/googleplay/android-developer/answer/10840893?hl=en#zippy=%2Cdeveloper-account-for-personal-use%2Cdeveloper-account-for-organization-or-business
  11. Current US economic restrictions make this super difficult if not impossible.
  12. Caching static files such as images, style sheets, etc is fairly straightforward. The problem with trying to cache the base pages themselves is that you have to build an Akamai property manager condition that reads the cookie value of being logged in or not. If the user is not logged in, allow content to be cached. If you’re using friendly URLs, this gets harder though. You can’t just match to say .php files since those are not used when using furls. You would need to build match conditions for paths such as /topic/ or text content type. In addition, remember to keep the cache time low… 1-5 min max for those page matches.
  13. IPS official position is that one minute is what it’s standard is. From “real world” experience, it’s fine. You won’t get an OFFICIAL blessing that any other value is fine. You just have to do it and see.
  14. Is your htaccess file properly setup and correct for this host?
  15. It’s fine. Certain activities may take longer to complete such as mass deleting content which is done in batches via tasks. But it won’t “break” your site. Or if you flag someone as a spammer, it would not actually remove that user and clean up their mess (if any) until the next cron run.
  16. There is no options to reset only the activity stream.
  17. There typically is not comments by staff on feature requests statuses. Simply watch the release notes to see if it was added. Asking for “updates” generally does not help. If this did super important to you, it’s most likely better to engage a 3rd party resource developer to implement on a custom basis for your community.
  18. It looks like it may have been published early by mistake and later hidden. Because you watch that area, you got the notice between the time it was accidentally published and when it was later hidden.
  19. CSS would be the best way to control alignment. 🙂
  20. You would need to customize your theme to do this.
  21. Basically download the IPB source files from the client area, upload them to your site and then run the upgrader again.
  22. A ONE-TIME cost with no renewals? It should be considered a bargain IMO. Many other plugins have a 5-6 renewal fee every 6 months. So after a year, you’ve bought the plugin once. After a few years, you’ve bought it many times over. I would not try and argue price too much given it’s a one time cost with updates and support provided. (But that’s just my humble opinion.)
  23. What I ended up doing was white listing all of AWS’s EC2 IP ranges (https://docs.aws.amazon.com/general/latest/gr/aws-ip-ranges.html). Its not unique to IPS, however it does reduce the potential attack surface by eliminating any non-AWS source.
  24. Is there a way to exclude certain member groups from group promotions when using a subscription? I had a subscriber that I later made a moderator. He wants to continue contributing to the site financially, but each time his subscription renews, it switches him back into the group setup for subscribers. Is there a way to set moderators from being promoted when they have an active subscription? I figured if worse comes to worse, I can create a new subscription that does not have promotion enabled, but I'd prefer to not create multiple ones if I can avoid it. Thanks!
