Happy hump day, team! Apologies for no hump day post from me last week - I was on the streets of LA freedom fighting for Britney. 💪😅 However, this post isn't about me 😏 this is about us officially releasing 4.6.7 into the wild! It's available to you now!
Just to refresh your memory, you and members of your community will now have the ability to subscribe to custom Activity Streams and receive emails with all the latest activity. There's also new Closed Club functionality and Stock Replies. 
Ya boy penned a post about it last month. Feel free to give it another check - it includes more details on the aforementioned:
 
 
Btw, one of my favorite parts of the new custom Activity Streams is the decay feature. 😎 
Please be sure to have full working backups before updating. The upgrade should go smoothly, but just in case it's always great to have them.

Ups! Many Thanks @opentype 😊
I did not find it.
I hope IPS considers it a option for the forum.

It’s how these crawlers work. They aren’t operating in real time and rendering the previews might take a while after linking the content for the first time. 
One can use the Twitter Card Validator and the Facebook Sharing Debugger to investigate potential problems. (And even with those, it might need several attempts to retrieve the actual data.)

Strange, seems to be working now, you can close this topic. Thanks @Ehren 🙂

It took a moment to render for me, but it's working on my end:
 

Microsoft just hasn't updated its Emoji font yet. You can use Twitter emoji to show all the images.

Indeed it looks to be an OS issue, rather than one our end unfortunately. I can see it on my windows 10 machine, but it does seem whatever the issue is, they have resolved it on windows 11. Not much help at the moment I know, but at least you know they will resolve it eventually

I use Cloudflare's WAF and created a rule to block traffic from Russia and China as a good amount of the junk traffic we received from there.  (We don't have any real legitimate traffic from there.)
It might be worth considering blocking those areas higher up in the stack either in .htaccess, in your firewall, etc.  
By the way...  if you use .htaccess, you won't be able to just list a country, but there are some good resources that will let you pick a country and it will give you the IP ranges and generate the .htaccess code for you to block the IPs used in those countries.

Are these prices real? I just switched over from Xenforo because I thought their prices were high 😲

Happy Hump Day, fam! 
I'm bringing this very special Hump Day post from our headquarters in Lynchburg, Virginia.
@Ryan Ashbrook, @Matt Finger, @Marshall Slemp and myself flew in from all over the U.S. to join forces with @Charles, @Olivia Clark and @Rikki to A.) meet in person and B.) dream up some exciting new projects!
Spoiler alert: we have some pretty exciting things in the works! Olivia is helping us channel our creative energies into effective workflows. Seeee?
 

Speaking of projects, have you had a chance to check out our website refresh? I'd love to point you in the right direction 😏  namely our Innovate section. It's beautiful 🥲 . Curious, what are your thoughts?

Alright folks, that does it for now. If you have any comments, questions or concerns, drop us a line in the comments. We're here for you!! 

I would also like to see the Marketplace link return to the native menu. While the ACP is required to install resources, I still use the website version to keep up to date with new release and search for products. I used to check it all the time and used it much more often than opening Our Picks for example, which have a spot in the menu. 

I'll be honest, the other day reading this thread I was really worried about the prices changes, lack of support, and wondering if I had made the right move from moving from Xenforo. But now that people have voiced their opinions and frustrations (myself included), it looks like things may be going on in the background with their support that we don't know about, and @Matt made some good changes already. I think we are going to be alight guys, now get in here for a group hug. ❤️
 

Come here 🥲
