Why has this been changed? I am missing the detailled information in the hovercard.

They not even convert the characters in a meaningful way, they actually erase the distinct meaning of these characters.

I have to agree.

Those replacements can even totally change a meaning and while the link could be "easier to remember" but for wrong reasons. Let me use the following extreme example from Polish language:

"łaska" vs "laska"

They are actually two different words and each of them have multiple meanings and none of them cross each other.
- The first one could be: "would you be so kind...", "grace", "pity", etc.
- The second one could be: "walking stick" but in a slang also a "hot girl" or "blowjob" 😆. Imagine the word placed in an unfortunate combination and you'll get a link sounding like a p*rn.

Jokes aside, such problem could be in different languages too so you can't guarantee what actually you render as a "message" in the link...

How do I turn this off? I already have a third party application that deals with account deactivation and deletion - which suits my needs far better

For now the only option is a free plugin:

I don't want to create a new topic, but I want to move posts from topic A to topic B. Is that possible?

The permission for creating a new topic covers moving posts as well. Look from this perspective: moving some posts to an existing topic does create a "new topic" in the meaning that you add more data to the existing topic.

So as pointed out make sure to enable permissions for your group in the destination forum:

Yes, I saw that but I am not upgrading as I don't like many of the changes past 4.7.2.

Like I said, you don't need to upgrade to get around the issue. Just remember to close the IPS message (every time it is re-appearing) and reload the page. That's all.

Exactly. Regardless of the bug you can still access the stuff if you close the message and reloaded the page ... until the next "important" message.

You said that you are on 4.7.2. The fix is in 4.7.8.

I think that was the issue:

You potentially either closed an IPS message on top and reloaded the page or upgraded from 4.7.2 to the later version. The fix supposes to be in 4.7.8.

In case of third party themes it is no longer possible since IPS 4.5. The limitation is related to an inaccessible ACP panel in case of outdated or badly designed themes.

Now, the only option available is to swap between the light <> dark default ACP theme.

Luuik's solution without security patches and whatnot, is a very temporary fix IMO - although a working one.

Oh yes. I know what exactly you are up to. As I said: "for now" = just wanted to provide a temporary "solution" until the whole page will be secured in other way. Could not provide any other way since I did not test the spiders at all.

Hi,

I know that you intend to create a "simple page" with "no database" but wouldn't for now be sufficient that you just disable most features on the site? For example:

ACP > System > Applications > under System disable most modules (probably you need to keep only "System")
ACP > System > Login & Registration > disable all Methods, disable new registrations
ACP > Community > Forums > Permissions from the dropdown menu for each forum > for all groups deselect everything except "See forum" + "Read topics".

Have not checked what can be more disabled.

Thanks. The warning is gone in my account here.

This is about all the space a user has available for all their files among all apps (forum posts, downloads, calendar entries...)? Then why are 2 infos being given like I posted above under 1.?

The reason that it shows both is because they are 2 different items in permissions. There are server side settings that will affect the max-file-size as well but:

The top one is the remaining storage they have (lets say the 30 megs that you posted there) the second one is the maximum size they can upload per attachment (2 megs). So if you set the first to the larger number and the second to the smaller number it will look correct.

This is intended for sites with limited storage space or similar as well as sites that wish to provide extra storage space for subscribers etc.

@tpasa

Is this happening in topics having a lot of images?

I understand, however the issue there was a bug in firefox itself.

I am not sure about that that's why just in case I linked the topic. The thing is that I am a Firefox user (that means that I use only Firefox to access my forum unless I am forced to check something Chromium related) and I have never encoutered the issue as reported in that linked topic. Latest Firefox then and now.

For the record, the same problem but on Firefox has been reported in this topic:

To put it simply, you need to change your email address to a different one because your current one is inactive/disabled/unavailable.

It leads me to the e-mail settings (changing the working e-mail).

My e-mail (custom domain) is 100% working. I even got an IPS notification using the very e-mail that I just logged from a "new device". That's why I do not understand why it is detected and why I should change it here...

Hi,

Today I got the following:

It leads me to the e-mail settings (changing the working e-mail). Why I get the notification?

@Nathan Explosion

Yes, it looks like that.

But is this a bug that in case of a hidden topic ticking a single post in the topic offers in the black bar options to "Hide/Unhide" (and the only working one is to ... Hide ... again)?

Can't edit my post above. I want to add that:

I am an Unrestricted Administrator (access to moderate all forums). The option in the dropdown menu seems to be missing if the whole topic has been hidden. The option in the dropdown seems present if the topic is not hidden but only a specific post in the topic.

@rhocar

If you do not see the option in the dropdown menu you still could see it in the bottom bar appearing after ticking a specific post:

To me it sounds like a caching issue. Do you have any caching system activated?

Now support starts here on the Invision forum as a form of a topic (like your topic here). Then if necessary (eg. a sensitive data needs to be provided) a Staff member can move your request to a ticket communicated via e-mail.

You are checking a wrong place (global forums settings). I refer to the forums listing:

ACP > Community > Forums > select Edit next to a specific forum > Forum Settings > Users can see topics posted by other users?

Each forum is configured separately:

Note that Categories do not have the option and you need to expand them and check normal (Sub)forums.
