  1. I thought of that. It’s been a few hours and it still shows in the Ajax search. Well, there’s a bit more to it. It was a new account that I noticed had posted a compulsory intro post (in an area where posting promotes you to another group). I noticed that this particular member had posted several times in that subforum, something normally not possible. He didn’t get promoted automatically and the posts were not associated to his account. (In his content list nor had increased his post count). Very odd, never seen that before, I haven’t upgraded either so I don’t think it’s a new bug. I tend to believe it was a glitch at the moment of signing up. I logged in as this member and tried posting, again the post wouldn’t show as his (in his content list I mean). I thought the easiest would be deleting the account and create it again for him. I deleted the posts, then I deleted the account but it gave me an error message. (I wish I had kept copy). So, I decided deleting it from the database (yes, I know, big mistake from me. I’m on the road overseas and not really thinking all that well about these things) So, the account is gone but there must be somewhere where the username and email still count as existing.
  2. Hello, I'm having trouble with achieving a complete deletion of a member. The member is deleted (gone from the core_members database table), however it still shows in the ajax panel of the ACP when searching for it (but when you click it tells you it can't be found). But if I want to create a new member with the same username and email address, it tells me that they are already in use. Where in the database can I clean these left-overs? (I still have written down the member number in case it helps).
  3. Nobody on my site believes this is like this by design and keep reporting it. I know that there's an option of pasting as a link instead, but many don't realise this. So, yes, an option somewhere to disable this would be great.
  4. You can log in as the member in question from the ACP, go to his notification settings, and at the bottom of the page, select: "Stop all email notifications". I wish this option also existed in the ACP, so logging in as the member wasn't necessary.
  5. @Adriano Faria Happy new year. If I select posts to increment, does it respect individual forums where I have selected not to increment post count?
  6. Thanks, no, I haven't tried that. However, having a look at that setting it says: And this is something that it shows in the email messages people get. So, it wouldn't help as much as something that displays on the site. I suspect the string in question is: warning_expires Expires %s So, now I changed it to Invoice Expires %s, and I'll see how that goes. Cheers.
  7. Hello, as depicted in the screenshot the "Expires: Date" to be found in paid invoices, can be a bit problematic, as people who have paid an invoice, get that and believe that they've just paid for only a few days until the invoice expires, instead of being clear they've paid for a whole new period of the ad, etc. I looked under Languages, Translation, and Commerce has several "Expires". My intention was to change "Expires" to "Invoice Expires" to make it clearer, or not even have that there, because the person has already paid for a new period anyway. Can someone tell me what specific string I'm supposed to edit for that? Thanks.
  8. Thanks for checking; I've just sent you a PM.
  9. Hi @DawPi, the latest Version 1.0.3.1 doesn't seem to work for me on IPS 4.6.9 It keeps telling me I don't have permissions to see any profiles I try to visit, no matter what user group, and I'm supposed to see all of them.
  10. @beats23Have you migrated your database to a new server? or restored a backup from a Mysql dump? I've been through that before and I lost my emojis due to those doing the server migration for me being careless. They generated a manual backup of the database, and unfortunately Mysql dump default is UTF8 and not utf8mb4, which is what's needed for Emojis to work. If you haven't done anything, and this happened maybe the server connection collation has been changed somehow. In that case you may be able to revert it to utf8mb4 in the general settings of your database. Failing that maybe you have a backup that the server automatically generated when this setting was correct. But even in that case it depends on how much new content has been added since, so it may be a tough choice between old emojis and latest content. In my case I only realised about the broken emojis 3 months later, so I basically didn't have a choice. Regardless, you want that set above to utf8mb4_unicode_ci for new emojis. It could be some other reason behind the problem, but what you say sounds very familiar to me.
  11. I don't know how much it differs from the way I have things set up, but basically, for a while, not sure if by defect or by design, members were able to buy different subscription packages at the same time (of course nobody did that as the only difference in my packages is the amount of time between them, so no point having two subscriptions running simultaneously). However, this had the advantage that, if they wanted to buy a different subscription, once the previous expired, they could, so they could switch from 1 month to 3 months, or 6 months or 1 year, and any way around too. Even for the same duration, if one subscription renewal had expired, they just got a new one. However, after some upgrade, I can't recall if from 4.4 to 4.5 (though I think that was for me, despite IPS saying the above functionality was never the case for the 4 series, but as I said for me it was, whether it was intended or not, and it suited me fine). But, after that upgrade, I noticed what you say, which apparently, it's the way it should work by design now. That does not suit me, so I asked @DawPi to create a plugin for me to revert things as they were before. So, you may want to discuss it with him, if you are open to using a third party plugin.
  12. I don't think there are many traces of it on this site, but it was called "(M30) Auto PM on X posts" and it was made by Michael.J (Devfuse). No idea why he discontinued it when IPB 3 became IPS 4. So, it wasn't exactly thought for group changes exclusively, but as I've always used post count for changes of primary groups, it did the job for me anyway.
  13. Ah okay, but what I had in mind was these messages happening automatically with the promotions. Basically the way one old application for IPB 3 used to work. You could select a different message depending on the new user group the member is automatically moved to, and the system would trigger the message letting he or she know. In any case, I've just bought it, because I can give it some use the way it works right now anyway. Cheers!
  14. But can the message be different depending on the user group the person is moved to? (Sorry, I only ask because I can only go by the screenshots here, and somehow I got the impression that the message is the same regardless of user group).
  15. This looks useful. Just a suggestion for future releases; it would be great if upon the notification it was possible to detail what the change involves (depending on the newly acquired user group). For example: "Your group has been changed to Advanced Members, as such you'll be able to upload bigger files, access the VIP area of our forum, etc, etc".
  16. Some time ago, I made the suggestion for this app to have an option to automatically change the user group of those with duplicate accounts. Right now, it either sends PMs or bans members (which is too harsh IMHO). However, the problem with just sending PMs is that on a big site then you have to go chasing the conversations, many members just ignore them, etc. However, if it was possible to automatically move duplicate members to a group with limited capabilities, they would be contacting us almost immediately. So, please consider this, as on big sites that charge subscriptions for access to all or some areas, it would help a great deal. Cheers.
  17. Same here, and for me it's the same using the unmodified default theme. (Admin/Mod permissions)
  18. I wonder if this is a bug. I upgraded to 4.6.6 and kept my ranks system. But the Reputation Levels, that I've edited for the first time ever in order to add a few more levels, don't display the Title now in the Admin CP (except when you open them to edit). See the first 3 ones from the top I didn't touch and they keep the description/title, the ones below them, either edited or new ones, don't show it. However if you open any of them to edit, the Title is there. (By the way, if you add a badge there does it show anywhere?... if I kept the original reputation system in place instead of the new rewards one?) Anyway, the Titles/Descriptions missing there, still show when one hovers over the reputation in someone's profile. So, the problem is only there in the Admin CP.
  19. I'm using a plugin that was made for some IPS previous version, but it has survived the upgrades up until 4.5 at least, which is what I'm using now. All it does is to hide the sidebars on Pages, and you can select which ones you wish to hide. Unfortunately it doesn't look like it's available any longer. The name (and it looks it has always been missing some language string) is hidesidebarsrecords But I can't remember who made it. It was on the Marketplace once upon a time. @Fosters has one app or plugin that allows you to show sidebars on some pages and not others. I assume it may do the same trick. (Maybe mine is an earlier version of the one below but I'm not sure at all) As I said, you'll need to check with the author whether this one does the same as my plugin.
  20. Yes but not for the limit; IPS does it out of the box from 4.5 onwards. The limit seems to be around 150 characters without counting spaces. That's the only thing, I doubt you can adjust the limit, as for the rest it works pretty much in the same manner.
  21. I've just realised that adverts on my site are not expiring as supposed to happen according to the package's settings. For example, this package is set up this way: However, when you look at the Commerce part of it, this is what it looks like for any ads: This problem started recently with my upgrade to IPS 4.5 and the latest Classified version. It was working fine on 4.4. No expiry date, no renewal price.
  22. @Gauravk @DawPi made a plugin for me exactly for this. Maybe you could talk to him. PS, I don't think it's a bug, but strangely, intended behaviour from what I've read on these forums. Anyway, Dawpi's plugin fixes that. Cheers.
  23. Hi, is there a way by default to avoid this (see below) when pasting a Twitter address? And instead simply have it like this https://twitter.com/invisionps without having to click "Paste as link instead" at the bottom of the text editor? (Most people on my forum don't realise that option exists and get angry when they see someone's timeline embedded instead of a simple link).
