    Once you review a license, you can reset the URL yourself if you have not changed it in the last 6 months.  If you've changed/set it in the last 6 months, a member of the staff will need to help you.  

    So you should just need to login to the Client Area, find the expired purchase, and click "Renew Now".  Once it's renewed and active, click "Manage This Purchase" and then "Change Licensed URL".  

    bam yes GIF

    🙂 

    Yea thats how I normally do it (if I don't have it already setup for automatic renewals) but when it expires you can no longer renew it and instead you get something like this:

    Could contain: Text, Word, File, Page

    So I clicked on Contact us to renew which basically does a contact form which I sent off but got the response

    Quote

     

    Hello,

    Please renew the license and let us know once you do.  We can then review and reset the URL.

     

    I can't renew since I don't have the option.  Once I have the option I'll be happy to.  So I'm stuck but hopefully not forever.

  2. Could I pretty please get help renewing a license that expired?

    IPS Community Suite ( https://eventguyz.net/ )

    License ending in: **********-*****-******-7003270994

    I have several licenses with you starting from 2010 and I don't want to start all over with $850 so is there a way to renew the above license for the going rate of $150 (or less if you wanna cut me a 12yr loyalty discount and change URL to hosangit.com)

    Thank You

    Dennis

  3. I think I got closer with the Live Meta Tag Editor but still at a loss

    If you keep scrolling down on the bar on the right you will see the below options and my comments and questions if anyone might have an answer I appreciate it.

  4. When I was with Wordpress I didn't even have to try to get a great Web Search Presence since there are many SEO WP friendly plugins but of course the rest of it is slow and clunky and expensive.

    With Invision Community (which I love and have several sites built on) I have almost zero web search presence.  Now I'm not genius or expert web developer but it's a hobby, not a business (kinda) and I'm always learning.

    I like to try and solve issues myself (yea I'm that guy that doesn't like to ask for help) but scouring the internet for anything to do with SEO and Invision Community I only find one article really and thats the Help Guide for SEO on Invision Community that doesn't help me at all.

    Now I know Invision Community works very well and has SEO since the company's site pops up all over Google (which is AWESOME!) but in my attempt to figure this out myself I'm even more confused.  Below I'm posting a picture or two to help explain my confusion since I'm not sure how else to explain it.

     

    This is a working example using Invision Community Blog Post

    InvisionCommunity_SEO_example.png.23a58b14086f51fe67b3837cdc12242c.png

     

    This is real world use of my site which I would love to have at least the above results happening

    InvisionCommunity_SEO_example_EventGuyZ.png.d5129d15490eb41bce3ac47b2512fb10.png

     

    Again, it could be something I'm not doing correctly or something is misconfigured which is why I'm posting this in the HELP section.  Not complaining, just want to know how to get SEO to work correctly.

    I have clicked on: ACP -> System ->Site Promotion -> Search Engine Optimization

    • Friendly URLs (all three are turned on and yes the .htaccess has been uploaded)
    • Sitemap (Use recommended settings? enabled)
    • Meta Tags:
      • I've clicked Rebuild Sitemap
      • Clicked Add Meta Tags but I'll be honest, not sure what to do so I followed the hint which is use Live Meta Tag Editor
      • I clicked on Launch Live Meta Tag Editor and it just brings me to the homepage of my site but I have no idea what the expectation is... maybe this is my issue.  Examples would be awesome if anyone has any.
    • Crawl Management: Invision Community optimized

     

    Currently running: Invision Community v4.6.12.1

    Any help, direction to get some google presence without paying these companies a bunch of money for something that I feel should be simple would be MUCH appreciated.

    Thank You in Advance

    This was an issue caused by a 3rd party app. Probably Quizzes or another app/plugin which modified and broke the club nodes mapping.

     

     

     

    I have fixed this for you:)

    Thank You.  I do appreciate it and I see I am back in business.  Surprised that disabling the 3rd Party apps didn't correct the issue.

  6. Thanks for your help..  I can't even have the user try that since I was "trying" to figure it out on my own and I broke it.

    I was looking at the quiz categories and clicked on "Convert to Club Feature" for the quiz category F5.

    convert2clubFeature.thumb.png.f803bb5feb9bf9ae69ed3fb6f8aa90ec.png

    Ever since then, that club is now inaccessible.  So when I try and click on the club Tech, I get this

    OutOfRangeException:  (0)
    #0 /eventguyz.net/system/Application/Application.php(236): IPS\Patterns\_ActiveRecord::load('IPS', 'app_directory', NULL)
    #1 /eventguyz.net/system/Member/Club/Club.php(1350): IPS\_Application::load('IPS')
    #2 /eventguyz.net/system/Member/Club/Club.php(1893): IPS\Member\_Club->nodes()

    #8 /eventguyz.net/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run()
    #9 {main}

     

    BACKTRACE from the system logs is:

    #0 /eventguyz.net/init.php(1015): IPS\_Log::log('OutOfRangeExcep...', 'uncaught_except...')
    #1 [internal function]: IPS\IPS::exceptionHandler(Object(OutOfRangeException))
    #2 {main}

    I cleared cache and I increased memory in PHP from 128M to 512M just in case.  I disabled all 3rd party plugins, including quizzes and nothing brings back the club.  Other clubs are working fine.

    Could I get some idea on how to fix what I broke by clicking the convert to club feature?

    Thank You

  7. Not sure if it helps but the BACKTRACE from the system logs is:

    #0 /eventguyz.net/init.php(1015): IPS\_Log::log('OutOfRangeExcep...', 'uncaught_except...')
    #1 [internal function]: IPS\IPS::exceptionHandler(Object(OutOfRangeException))
    #2 {main}

    I don't know what this means.

    I cleared System Cache..  no difference at all

    You can click on this to get to the club (which is closed)

    https://eventguyz.net/clubs/14-tech/

    I tried to change the club to open for easier troubleshooting and when I went to the club in ACP and tried to change to Open I get a similar error

    OutOfRangeException:  (0)

    #7 /eventguyz.net/admin/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run()
    #8 {main}

    Any help is appreciated since I'm at a loss at what to do next.

  8. All 3rd Party applications are disabled and yet I'm getting this error when trying to enter my club labeled Tech.  Any help is appreciated. I am running the latest version of IPS and increased memory from 128M to 512M in case it was a memory issue.  I'm not sure what else I should look at.  No customization on the theme that I'm aware of.

  9. So sorry, I must be an idiot..  could you give me a little help with this as well.  It's my first quiz and I looked in categories, quiz settings in ACP and just not seeing what I'm missing.

    Edit you categories and find

    Appreciate it..  can't believe I never looked at the categories.  TONS of settings you can utilize I didn't even know.  AWESOME!

  11. Is there doco somewhere that I can follow so I reduce the stupid questions I'm about to post?

    How do I increase the number of questions allowed in a quiz?  Currently it appears I'm limited to 5 and thats just too small? (20 would be ideal max for us but not mandatory that you have to have 20 questions)

    I would really like the ability to assign categories from the ACP in the Quizzes menu.

    I just replied:

    You can have more than one quiz feature per Club.

    Thanks again Adriano, must of replied the same time you did.  Looks like you spent some serious time on this app.  Thank you!  I have had multiple applications you have created and one thing in common they all have..  they just work.

    I've been wanting to add the quiz system to my site for awhile now but since my site has so many different categories I would love to be able to keep the site clean by adding quizzes to certain clubs.

    Example: I have a DJ club so I would like to have quizzes on how to hook up the equipment, what to do in certain situations, etc.. then on another club I have technology club that would focus on knowledge of the different products.

    If I have only the one page of all quizzes, it might be unappealing and confusing.  Also with the clubs I could do the paid clubs so the clubs I have quizzes its part of the bonus of paying to join the club.

    Anyhow, was curious if you had any thoughts about adding quizzes to clubs?

    I just went ahead and purchased it and was happy to discover you can add quizzes to clubs.  It doesn't really mention that it does support that on the product page so for anyone who is curious, it does work on clubs.

    Really impressed with the app so far.  I have a lot to do before I can give a solid accurate review but initially this looks promising.

  15. In order to troubleshoot the issue, I re-installed Links Directory and I believe the error now gets handed off to stratagem

    OutOfRangeException:  (0)
    #0 /eventguyz.net/system/Application/Application.php(236): IPS\Patterns\_ActiveRecord::load('stratagem', 'app_directory', NULL)

    #8 /eventguyz.net/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run()
    #9 {main}

    I had some issues uninstalling and reinstalling stratagem but after a few tries and disabling any other third party I was eventually able to reinstall stratagem and re-enable the other 3rd party applications and now its working.

    Issue has been resolved

  16. I'm currently getting this error when I try and access a club

    OutOfRangeException:  (0)

    #8 /home/eventguyz/eventguyz.net/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run()
    #9 {main}

    I tried to uninstall and was going to reinstall since I see a reference to stratagem, the uninstall appeared to go fine (didn't see any errors) and then when I tried to re-install via Marketplace, it fails.

  17. Some of my clubs are giving me this error when I try and enter the club

    OutOfRangeException:  (0)
    #0 /eventguyz.net/system/Application/Application.php(236): IPS\Patterns\_ActiveRecord::load('links', 'app_directory', NULL)
    #1 /eventguyz.net/system/Member/Club/Club.php(1350): IPS\_Application::load('links')
    #2 /eventguyz.net/system/Member/Club/Club.php(1893): IPS\Member\_Club->nodes()
    #3 /eventguyz.net/system/Member/Club/Club.php(2033): IPS\Member\_Club->tabs()
    #4 /eventguyz.net/applications/core/modules/front/clubs/view.php(130): IPS\Member\_Club->firstTab()

    #8 /eventguyz.net/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run()
    #9 {main}

    I verified no third party plugin are enabled, cleared cache, no difference.

    Any direction/help would be appreciated.

  18. ideally if a user pays for a membership/subscription we would like to pick:

    what pages they can access

    what blogs they can see

    what groups they become a member of (which could include blog, gallery, downlods)

    currently i haven’t figured out how to do this so my assumption is you can’t currently.

    with wordpress some big money makers and very popular membership plugins offer this ability

    paid membership pro

    memberpress

    woo commerce membership

    would be nice to be able to do the same thing with Invision Community ecoSystem

    This is a feature since the first version of this app:

    TNJVFlM.png

    But the sorting isn't available in Clubs. I can add in a future version.

    This is personal. Mess to me is to have a new record or new comments in the 10th page instead of the first.; they will become unnoticed if the user doesn't user Activity Streams regularly.

    I appreciate the feedback.  I can see your point but it probably depends on how people use Links.  For the clubs I'm using it more like Bookmarks so they know what they are looking for versus a community where everyone is submitting a bunch of links where you would want to latest at the top.

    So I suppose its personal preference for how I'm using Links in the clubs to have it a-z and use Activity for the latest links or even a Custom Block that shows latest links/comments/reviews in the club for those links.  That would be cool.  Then you get the best of both worlds. 🙂

  20. Good Morning Adriano..  curious if the new version (when it gets approved and posted) will it have the ability to have a default sort for the links?  I have links in my clubs (which is very cool thank you) and I would like to default to Alphabetical order versus newest link first but it currently doesn't appear possible.  So when someone clicks on links they get a jumbled mess instead of a clean a-z view.

    Just curious and if its not coming, hopefully a suggestion for a future version would make my life way easier.

  21. Hey Adriano..  I know you are super busy updating all your excellent apps (which I believe I have many of them).  Do you know when this error is expected to be fixed when clicking on Tools and Refresh Thumbnails.

    Running PHP 7.4, latest version of LD 5.6.0.1 and IPB is at 4.6.5.1

    Daniel talk about 2 weeks.

    What version will the app be at that should include the 4.6 fix?  I'm currently running 2.0.1 and get the SQL error.  I check for updates in marketplace a couple times a week.

    Yesss...must have! 😄

    Also add a Task & Milestone for club, something like a simple project management.

    Where we can add club members to a task, mark it as complete, etc...😄😄

     

    I use Stratagem for Project Management and its pretty darn strong for an app.  Been very happy with it and they are always developing/improving it.
