I recently upgraded my forum to the latest stable version, and now I can't seem to edit my globalTemplate file (for both new and old themes). When I try to edit I get an error message that says that "this theme file could not be saved".
I can change my custom.css file without any problems.
Is there a new setting or something that I've missed? 🤔

Alright, thanks!
I'm doing a manual upgrade, but now I get this error message:
Specified key was too long; max key length is 1000 bytes ALTER TABLE `core_attachments_map` ADD KEY `map_lookup` (`location_key`(250),`id1`,`id2`)
What does this mean?
Okay, so it seems my core_attachments_map table was in MyISAM. I converted it to InnoDB (see code below) and the upgrade process could continue.
ALTER TABLE `core_attachments_map` ENGINE = InnoDB
Edit: And my upgrade is now complete! 🥳

I am trying to upgrade from v4.5.4.2 to v4.7.12, but two issues are stopping me.
I'm currently running PHP version 7.4.30 and when I try to upgrade to PHP 8.1 to be able to perform the upgrade, my community and ACP eventually stops working.
Also, once I run on PHP 8.1 (or 8.0) I get "database problems" that I can't seem to fix. My ACP says I need to run these queries:
UPDATE `core_output_cache` SET `cache_expire`=0 WHERE `cache_expire` IS NULL; ALTER TABLE `core_output_cache` DROP INDEX `cache_expire`, CHANGE COLUMN `cache_expire` `cache_expire` INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 COMMENT 'Unix timestamp of when the cache expires', ADD KEY `cache_expire` (`cache_expire`); UPDATE `blog_entry_categories` SET `entry_category_blog_id`=0 WHERE `entry_category_blog_id` IS NULL; ALTER TABLE `blog_entry_categories` CHANGE COLUMN `entry_category_blog_id` `entry_category_blog_id` INT NOT NULL DEFAULT 0 ;
But it doesn't help if I try to fix them automatically or run them manually. I still get a "database problems" message when I try to upgrade.
What should I do? I am using the automatic installation process in my ACP. Should I upgrade from v4.5.4.2 to v4.7.12 manually instead?

You would need to upgrade the installation to the latest release but otherwise, yes.
Alright, and is there a guide available somewhere?

Use the Converter to migrate one site to the other - see https://invisioncommunity.com/services/migrate/, scroll down to the 'Platforms' section and choose "Invision Community....." to see what can be migrated.
I'd like to merge an older 4.5 installation into a newer IPB forum, is that possible using the converter? And if so, is there a guide somewhere (I've tried searching but…)?

When I try to change my licensed URL, I get this error message:
QuoteSorry, there is a problem
There seems to still be an installation of Invision Community at the URL on file. Before you can change the URL, you must first remove the existing installation.
I've set up so that my old domain name re-directs to my new domain, could that be causing this?

But I respect your point that you are not interested in helping others
Huh! It does kinda sound like you're saying to your customers that they are too selfish to help in the support forums. I'm sure you didn't intend to do that. But maybe not the best response IMHO.

I haven't had the time yet to properly calculate what the new price increase means for my communities and weigh the different pros and cons of both the new changes and existing features and so on. But it isn't looking good. I'll probably start looking for alternatives which is sad because IPS is a splendid community software. But it's getting harder and harder to justify its cost.

Will this app be updated for 4.6?

Is there a way to mass prune all accounts which have been marked as spammers? Because they aren't in a specific user group. 🤔

I know this is an old topic, but @Degica, have you been able to get DreamObjects to work with your IPS community?
-
I want to be able to sort by using most liked content in a Pages database. Is that possible? 🤔

Use build in option instead
Thank you, that worked great! 👍

I've been trying this plugin and it does pretty much what I want. But it doesn't work for status updates that are displayed after you click the load more activity button. And it doesn't seem to work that great with images. Oh well, it's a start. 😞
-
Is there a way to cut off and only show a small part of the content of status messages in the activity stream that has long texts or large images? Preferable it has a read more link that when clicked will display the full content of the status message? Like in the picture below:

Hashtags are often mistyped further diluting the usefulness. Using your example, on twitter I've seen:
#blacklivematter
#blacklivesmatters
#blm
#blackouttuesdayThey are not mistyped (and #blackouttuesday is different from the rest), Twitter users are using different hashtags to keep the topic trending as Twitter doesn't allow one hashtag to trend for long.

What do we want?! Hashtags!

Something for this matter has been developed. For those of you who are interested to test it you can PM me (you will benefit of a discount for helping with the testing 🙂)
Here are some screenshots of what we have so far...
Please do let us know when it's available for purchase!

Where is the group promotion tool found?
You can find it in the Members section in your ACP.
-
Interesting idea, but I don't think you can do this automatically. You could however set up a group called "founding members" and then use the group promotion tool to automatically move every user that publish one post on your site to this new group and then just remove that group promotion rule once your site reaches 1k members.
Or perhaps there's a mod for it in the marketplace?

You can select domains that you want search engines to follow in your ACP. Just search for "nofollow" in your ACP or go to Settings > Posting > Links

Yes, I changed it from Clubs to Communities on my forum. You can change the language files so it display something else in your ACP.

A couple of questions:
- Is this plugin compatible with 4.4? If not, when is the ETA on that?
- This plugin seems to work great with youtube, but what about others like Dailymotion, Vimeo, etc?
- Does the reputation system work with this plugin? All I can see is that users can rate (star system) each video but I don't see any Likes.

That fixed it, thanks! But weird, that haven't been a problem before I upgraded.
