For the Geolocation settings, is there a way of filtering all countries EXCEPT the specified one (i.e., a whitelist instead of a blacklist)? My forum's users are all based in one country, so it would make sense for me to validate all users outside of this country.
Also, does the work for users who register via SSO (e.g. Google Login)?

Yes

Ah, understood. They are like markers where the code stopped before outputting that error page.  Good the know thanks.

I've been working on a script that runs through a pre-identified list of members, and flags them as spammers. I'm delighted to say that after spending way too many hours on this (seriously, it probably would have been quicker to delete them manually!) I have something that works.
I have now cleaned up my forum. I've deleted 387,162 spam posts, banned ~700 spammers, and reduced my database size by 3.2 Gb. Best of all, this was all done using IPS functions, so it shouldn't cause any nasty database discrepancies. I'm feeling quite pleased with myself about all this. 😄
I'll post instructions and my script here, and hopefully it helps someone else in the future.

Yes, switch php back to v7 and see if site works again which it should.
You may have some customisation that is incompatible with php v8.
Try disabling all applications and plugins, switch to default theme and language then tryphp v8 again.

Commerce Feedback: Voiced but Unheard
Commerce is in need of some dire improvements considering it is a life-support system for many communities.
Recurring recommendations have been made for years but left unheard. While we understand that Commerce and especially payment method integration requires a lot of development, I think we can all agree on its necessity and the importance of a good customer experience.

Support for MySQL transactions in v5?
Database operations that insert/update rows in multiple tables should be grouped into a single transaction. This improves data replication and avoids data inconsistency from accumulating over time. This mainly affects content creation/modification.
Support for spatial data types and queries in v5?
I'd like to see full support for spatial indexes and queries on at least lat/long points.
Support for date and time types in v5?
I'd like to see full support for YEAR, DATE, TIME, DATETIME, and TIMESTAMP including fractional seconds for times stored in the database, e.g., TIMESTAMP(6) and TIME(6). 
Also support many of the remaining data types as you can including binary and json data types.
I feel like the database layer has been neglected over the years in favor of the UX and hope that v5 will address this side of the SDK.

What's New in Version 1.3.0
Add new moderator permission and setting to convert a topic (and its posts) to an event (with comments). New setting to allow the topic author to convert their topics into events. New setting to delete the topic after converting it to an event.

That's also a great idea for an enhancement.  Add a waiting/reserve list. 

Adriano, or anyone else for that matter that uses events regularly, have you seen any way to create a new pot for RSVP at all? I'm trying to find a way to capture 'Reserve' slots. Essentially so if you have a limit and someone drops out, you know if someone in reserve can fill in for you.
Ideally it sits alongside max limit if you have one! So many times people want to say they could be around but when it reaches its quota no one else can even click Going or Maybe. Appreciate any thoughts if it can fit in the enhancements in some way.

ACP > Members > Members > Customer tab
In my example, clothing has been bought along with a membership subscription but clothing is not Active.  Purchases without a subscription would be better listed under a different tab (eg Other).

We have in the past entered new members with apostrophes but now it restricted.  Is there a setting to allow apostrophes?
This has been tested on a local install of v4.7.10 with no add-ons.

 
Ahh, I should have searched first. There is a solution 🙂 
 

No, it would continuously run until its completed as it would start again immediately after the first. 
If you are sending more than your mail provider can handle, the only answer is to use a different mail provider that can handle what you are sending

Yes, it would be every minute

I've tested this on a local install of v4.7.10 with no add-ons to eliminate any issues with my live site.  Is this a bug?
 
To repeat the error, create a new profile field with the type set as Member, save the option.

 
Now try editing a members profile to select a member in the new field.  It does not automatically list the existing members like it does when sending a private message.

 
This is how I expected the field to act, like it does for a private message.

 
 

It has nothing to do with English, check out what & or < or > translates as 🙂 

DIY but make sure you take a DB backup first 😉

When there are more the 25 groups how you select them gets harder! 
The window is reduced from 6 to 4 groups at a time and it means there is more scrolling up/down to find the ones needed.  List them all, don't restrict the view.
But the most disappointing aspect is that the ease of the checkbox method is changed to something that is more difficult, the user needs to hold the Ctrl key down to select more than one which is very much prone to the user accidently removing any other secondary groups the member may have as they cant see what is currently selected.
Please change this to something more user friendly.

Works like a charm.
As a further test, reverting RSVP back to unlimited afterwards and the Maybe members reappear 👍
