  1. 1. Download the language with your custom strings

    2. Download the Marketplace version.

    3. Install Marketplace version as upload from XML

    4. Update the last with your custom XML.

    5. Set the last as default and delete all other languages

    This would merge both languages into one. You have to repeat the steps above every time the Marketplace version gets update.

  2. Final follow-up with the solution. This was not CleanTalk. The reason why the title or content was not filled via task while doing RSS import was the permissions set on the title and content field in the Pages database. The fields should have full permissions for adding content:

    Could contain: Text, Mobile Phone, Electronics, Phone, Cell Phone, Page, Calendar

    In my initial setup, only the administrator was able to add content to the field. The result was - an empty title and content while importing via RSS feed imports. These fields must be writable by anyone.

    By the way, permission to create a record in the database is not considered. I do not allow someone to create records in the database except for the admin. This does not matter. But the single fields must be writable by everyone.

    Closed for now 😅

    I visited the Invision forums and did a search for "upgrade failed" and found a ton of posts from others experiencing similar issues... The common answer from Invision devs is that ....

    This is exactly why support is now moved to the forum. 😉 

    If the support still would be ticket only, you would not do a quick search for "upgrade failed" but spend your time describing your issue in detail in the ticket. Or you would search but would not find anything usable.

    The common answers from devs in the forum are something that helps you instantly without waiting for the common answer in the support ticket first, then saying, no, it does not work for me and then going back and forth with support.

    In the past, they would even log into my community and troubleshoot and apply fixes.

    They still do it. Just submit your issue in this forum, be sure that login credentials for your forum in the IPS client area are up to date and they will log in to troubleshoot.

  4. Attempt to create a manual payment method on localhost and IN_DEV ends with

    Whoops\Exception\ErrorException: Undefined array key "m_validationfile" (2)
    #0 xxxx\applications\nexus\sources\Gateway\Gateway.php(213): Whoops\Run->handleError(2, 'Undefined array...', 'xxx...', 213)

     

  5. The form in the filter block is always formatted as ipsForm_vertical, even if using the block in the main content. This should be at least ipsForm_horizontal.

    Better to display it the same way the search does, where the fields are displayed as columns to save place for long filter forms:

    Could contain: Text, Page, Word, Menu, Number, Symbol

    Yes, I am aware the last one is a suggestion. 😄 I could not stop, please concentrate on the first line.

  6. Yes. Login into the selected project using the login credentials in the Client Area.

    The database Tutorials reference AI writers. Tutorials are imported via RSS. No cross-linking for the recently imported records in AI writers. I use a customized database template, but you can switch to the default display template, to see there is no cross-linking also in default. Please switch the template back after you have tested it.

  7. I have Database #1 where cross-linking from a database relationship field in Database #2 is enabled. The items in Database #2 are imported via RSS. While configuring RSS I have set a database-relationship field properly. Result: the items are imported, and the database relationship field is filled as desired. But there is no cross-linking for the imported items. I have to open and resave them to get the cross-linking shown.

    How to reproduce:

    1. Create a Database #1
    2. Create a Database #2
    3. Add a custom database relationship field to Database #2 referencing Database #1
    4. Enable cross-linking for the field
    5. Import records via RSS (AdminCP -> RSS Import) into Database #2, set the database relationship field to some record in Database #2 while configuring RSS import
    6. Issue: See the records in Database #1 after RSS import, there is no cross-linking
    7. Open a record in Database #2 and save it without changing it. The cross-linking appears.

     

  8. I am trying to bypass the permission issue for reciprocal items. I have created a new field to pull and display reciprocal items on my own. The Display Custom Format:

    {$record->_title} <!-- This works and return the title of the actual record -->
    {$record->database()->database_id} <!-- This does not output anything -->
    {{$reciprocalFields = $record->getReciprocalItems();}}
    Linking items: {$reciprocalFields} <!-- Empty as well, although there are two databases linking to this one -->

    It seems, I can have attributes of the record in Display Custom Format, but cannot have a value returned via the method. Right?

    Question: how do I get the reciprocal fields into the Display Custom Format of the custom field?

    the people consume the content and then return to Twitter to comment on it rather than register and comment directly at the source.

    Why should they register for comment if they comment without registering on Twitter? I would not. What are the advantages of being registered on your source? Except for being able to comment? Getting new stuff? You offer it on Twitter, so no reason. Being able to comment, they can do it straight away on Twitter without registering. 

    So, what is their benefit? What can they do on your source that they cannot on social media? Please, do not see it as accuse, this is a real question, WHY should they? What is the added value for them to be registered with your source?

    This may seem like nitpicking and IPS may be more focussed on business clients,

    This is not IPS that focused. These are forums today. They are mostly built around products. Hobbies have mostly moved to social media. That's not IPS fault. That's just where the journey goes. Young people do not bother to learn something about servers, FTP, installing (paid!) platforms, maintenance, and so on. They just register on Insta, Twitter, Facebook, and TikTok and have the most things for free, starting at the moment where they have registered. 

    Businesses are interested in forums to get their communities to support and advertise their products. Businesses have understood that they have little control over their "communities" on social media. So they move back. But hobbyist not.

    Pages are extremely useful. 🙂 This is the reason I stick with Invision Community for years.

    I'd like members to have a simple page to go to with a date picker and a field to track miles. 

    Create a database with date and number field. Allow users to add data to the database. This is pretty out of the box.

    Maybe a couple of other fields as some people track hours at the gym, or walking / running miles.

    Add as many fields as you like.

    Then there is a page to view the total for a year, and maybe the top 10 members in each category?

    This is the only thing that must be done via PHP block with some PHP and SQL.
