  1. I do not get any email notifications from this site, neither support tickets. The email address is valid and in use daily. I do get notifications from accounts@invisionpower.com but not from noreply@invisionpower.com or support@invisionpower.com Can you please check, if email in my account is somehow blacklisted in your system? Thank you!
  2. I know it's not your headache, but I can't use many email providers for one of my projects. Due to political restrictions. Even though I have a completely non-political project, I have been rejected by most email providers so far. Amazon is the only one that accepts us at the moment. Again, it's not your problem, but some of us don't always have a choice 😉. It's enough for me to know that this works somehow. Thank you!
  3. If IPS sends out more than the limit, Amazon SES has…. My question was how IPS can be set to respect the limits above. As I can see from the answers here, there are no settings and BULK_MAILS_PER_CYCLE does nothing. Theoretically, bulk mails via Amazon SES (SMTP) should not work. But in practice it does. This is all I want to know. Thanks.
  4. Means? I cannot use IPS bulk mail with Amazon SES right now. Right?
  5. Just to clarify. Can I somehow respect the limitations above with default IPS settings? Or not?
  6. @Marc Stridgen can you please confirm it? The default Amazon SES limitations are: Do you mean, there is no way to send out IPS bulk mail with Amazon SES?
  7. Adriano has a paid app for it.
  8. Search engines look for the Title and Description first, not URL. There are meta tags that are important. As for now all your categories have the same title and no description. You have to go to System -> Site Promotion -> Search Engine Optimization and then provide for each URL the title and description that includes the car model. Example: I would not mess with URL structure. The URL is almost unimportant if your page title and description are set properly. 😉 Tip: if you use the category description field in forum, it will be automatically mapped into a meta description tag.
  9. Do not use it anymore. The official functionality is exact the same. Unfortunately, you are going to lose the connection between the categories created with “Databases in Clubs 1.1.3” and clubs. I believe, this would require manual SQL to re-connect them. 😞
  10. @Daniel F indeed, my fault. It works only if you do not save. If you save the article and then start to edit, you will lose all the changes if you do not save them (pressing Save button). So, yes, the editor keeps the new unsaved content. But there is no warning if you're editing. You can add tons of content to the already saved article. Then “accidentally” click somewhere else, all the changes and edits are lost.
  11. I have created a database. I have set permissions so that Members are allowed to create records within the database. I have added a new club feature based on this database. Who can add a new record to the feature? Club owner and club leader only. Club moderators and club members are not allowed to add records. I have already asked it. But just to be sure: does it work as desired? Is there any way the members of the club can add records? Thanks.
  12. After a fresh install, I cannot find any Pages templates. Reproducible on localhost and test url. By the way: I am going to explore the new Pages in club feature. Where would you like to have bugs reports? Here, in technical problems or somewhere else?
  13. Since the upgrade to 4.7 we have lost the ability to see anonymous users in Recently browsing list. Before upgrade (4.5), we could see them in the list marked with crossed eye like this: After the upgrade, we cannot see anonymous logged users at all. I am logged in as administrator (anonymous login required). My moderators are logged as anonymous if they like. The most of them like. 😉 Now, I can see myself on the list without crossed eye and non-anonymous users. My moderators cannot see me. I cannot see my moderators. We have used this feature to see if there is a moderator online in the “critical” topics that are going to escalate. Has the feature been removed? Or are there any settings that I miss?
  14. I would assume it, too. It should be reproducible. Just remove all rules that deal with reactions, start rebuilding and find a task for Reaction in the background tasks. Not a deal for small communities. But an issue for large communities. I had to stop my rebuilding after almost 2 weeks due to the “rebuilding” of reactions (almost 10 GB table). It really goes through the entire reactions, even if there are no rules that require reactions.
  15. I have a community with over 30,000,000 posts. I have created achievement rules that deal: with posts timeline (registered since and logged in for X days) member's followers (not content!) Then I start rebuilding the achievement. Estimation: it will take some weeks to rebuild. What I do not understand is: why IPS tries to recount reactions, followed items and nodes and other things, if I do not have any rule based on it? E.g., the reaction table is huge (~10GB). I do not have any rule based on reaction. The rebuilding of “nothing” is strange. Those are tasks that rebuild something I have not defined: While VotePoll and JoinClub are “recalculated” pretty quickly, I estimate a very long term for rebuilding Reaction and FollowContentItem. Is it a bug? Can I stop the tasks that do not really calculate anything?
  16. If you connect Pages with a forum for comments, the topics will always have a link back to the record. Please consider making the link optional. There are several issues with this link: It is not editable: you cannot edit topics created automatically from records. It does not respect the template change: you can edit the template, but the changes are not considered while rebuilding. It does not respect permissions: if a user does not have a view permission for the record, the link is broken. E.g., database only for staff, topics for all. It sometime has ambigious wording, like view full person, view full movie, view full book. I know that I can change the language. But it is difficult to find a global one for all databases. It is not translatable: once saved in the post, it always uses the default language. No control for individual forums with other languages. It is redundant: I can create a field in the database and use Topic format to get a full control over the link. This way I can decide, whether to show or not, wording in individual database, exact position in the topic, formatting. This is also respected while rebuilding. Just a small choice field, yes/not would be sufficient. Or at least add a CSS class in the template so that the link can be suppressed with display:none. 😉 Thank you!
  17. I send email through Amazon SES via SMTP settings in IPS. All my emails (about 1,200 a day) are delivered without issues. But sometimes (3 to 4 times a day), I see these errors in email error logs: All the topics listed here have 70 followers or more. I have never seen this error on topics with quite a few followers. What can be a reason for this error? IPS issue? Server issue with SMTP? Amazon SES issue? I have consulted @stoo2000 and he has been looking into this over the last few days. His theory is: Invision Community holds connections to the SMTP server open throughout the whole time of the execution of background tasks. So it might be sending an email in the first loop and then not send another email for a while, performing other background tasks. Then it tries to send another email and fails due to timeout. This is just a theory. He hasn't seen this come up before. Note: I do not have any other errors with emails. They are all delivered. About 99% of registrations are confirmed. My bounce rate is very healthy. This is the only issue I have and only on topics with large number of followers. Does someone have an idea, what the reason for the error can be?
  18. We have the same experience. The most members use blogs as a kind of personal forum to ask questions. When they get enough answers, they remove the entry or hide it. Those who have commented are insulted. We would not like to remove the permissions to delete, edit or moderate own blogs. But the most users abuse these features. We have tried to put rules on the entry submission screen, this does not help. We have tried to explain, what blogging is, it did not help as well. At the end of the day, we will close our blogs after 15 years. We have over 10,000 “blog” entries. The most of them are just questions, 1–2 lines. I think, there is no IPS's “fault”. We have just a wrong target audience.
  19. Awesome! 🙏 Then this is a kind of bug or handling error. I will post it in technical issues.
  20. There used to be spam defense log in All Recent Account Activity area of the user in ACP: After update to the latest IPS version, this log is not shown anymore. Spam Defense is enabled. All spam defense logs are shown under /admin/?app=core&module=moderation&controller=spam&do=serviceLogs though.
  21. This was solved with the latest patch. You can apply it from your AdminCP.
  22. Currently, your entire subdomain is protected by login/password. The API can only reach URLs that are public.
