The claim of the CDN is a load of bull****. If you needed to secure a site/speed up a site/etc. for a CDN/with a CDN there is CloudFlare and other CDNs that don't limit customers in this way. There was ZERO reason for this change other than Invision wanting to collect customer data and check for unlicensed websites in a "more efficient" way. Any other claims are false. This is NOT customer friendly in ANY WAY. The claim of "because it is CSS means you should be able to make changes no matter what" is false. Eventually you won't be able to overwrite something and then you are screwed. I don't care what IPS says. I am never recommending IPS to anyone ever again and I am never using it anymore. They don't care about customers anymore. They are just here for the bottom line screw everything else.

Custom CSS can only go so far. Eventually I will get to a point where I cannot change something because it reads the standard CSS instead of the custom and then even with !important it won't work and I'll be stuck.

This is very disappointing. I was trying to use this service to replace Shopify as Shopify is expensive so I was using the CSS files + editing the HTML files HEAVILY to hack together a theme that looks like a similar company's website. Now, I can't do that. I feel as if I wasted my money as I would never have purchased if I even knew this was in the pipeline 6 months ago. Definitely not renewing. This is too expensive to not be able to mess with the files.

I am trying to make my navigation look like this website: https://www.aquariumcoop.com/ Now that IP removed the ability to edit CSS files I'm pissed as I feel like I've wasted my money. Anyway, can I still make navigation that has images like this: Also, when you scroll down can I hide the navigation to the left of the logo like this:

That worked. Thank you!

I was finally able to get IPB installed on my domain now I'm running into this issue when trying to create a new theme: OutOfRangeException: (0) #0 /var/www/fastuser/data/www/riverandreef.store/init.php(927) : eval()'d code(69): IPS\Patterns\_ActiveRecord::load(NULL) #1 /var/www/fastuser/data/www/riverandreef.store/system/Node/Controller.php(495): IPS\ipskitaddons_hook_IPS_Theme->form(Object(IPS\Helpers\Form)) #2 /var/www/fastuser/data/www/riverandreef.store/system/Node/Controller.php(394): IPS\Node\_Controller->_addEditForm(Object(IPS\Theme)) #3 /var/www/fastuser/data/www/riverandreef.store/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(107): IPS\Node\_Controller->form() #4 /var/www/fastuser/data/www/riverandreef.store/system/Node/Controller.php(69): IPS\Dispatcher\_Controller->execute() #5 /var/www/fastuser/data/www/riverandreef.store/applications/core/modules/admin/customization/themes.php(59): IPS\Node\_Controller->execute() #6 /var/www/fastuser/data/www/riverandreef.store/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(153): IPS\core\modules\admin\customization\_themes->execute() #7 /var/www/fastuser/data/www/riverandreef.store/admin/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run() #8 {main} I'm not sure what this means.

I'm trying to do a fresh install of IPB4 and I keep getting a "CANNOT_WRITE" error. I don't understand. All directories are 777 already.

Bumping this cause it is still an issue I need resolved and I can’t think of what is causing it.

Sorry I totally forgot to check this all week. Downloaded a backup of the files and DB. Re-uploaded the files. Created a new DB and restored it. Changed DNS on domain. Configured the conf_global.php I can't get to the ACP or anything so as far as what I can do I've done all of those steps.

Yes & both 755

I was moving the forum from one VPS to another.

My db details are correct and I verified everything else looks fine. I don't understand why I am getting this permission denied error. I'm getting this when I visit https://riverandreef.store

Alright, I will look into this in the future. I was able to do it as I found out PHPMyAdmin allows you to import multiple files at a time. When I realized that it made the process 1000x simpler but I'll check those if I have to do this again.

The below error is what I get when I try to import the entire DB. I'm having to import each table separately because the limit in the php.ini file I need is insanely high and I don't feel comfortable changing it. At least that was the only solution I could find in my google searches for this error in the past. Is there a quicker way to do this? PHPMyAdmin says there are 6 pages worth of tables (with the default setting). That is insane.

I just set up a new user, didn't help. So, I set up a brand new DB AND user. Still didn't help. Files are 644 at this point, directories are 755. New DB and user. I even tried without importing my old DB stuff. Main page still shows 500. Just double checked DNS and everything is good. ONLY thing that resolved it was deleting the website entirely, re-downloading the software and then re-installing and then restoring the files and then the databases. Not sure how that is resolved but glad it is finally fixed.

Fixed those links. Oopsies. Thanks for making me aware. 🙂

So you are saying https://dudethatserin.com does not work? Also, https://techblogger.space does not work? I need to update that as those are the only 2 WP sites I have now. Alright, I do not have one. I tried 755 yesterday for everything that didn't help. I will try changing the files to 644 and see if that does the trick. Definitely has full access.

As I said earlier, this is an unmanaged VPS. Meaning I am the hosting provider. I do everything. I triple checked conf_global.php and even reset the pw to my database and tried that in conf_global.php, that did not help. I'm not using Redis. I cannot find my constants.php file but maybe I'm looking in the wrong place... where is it located?

No errors there. I checked /var/log/apache2 There are error logs and all they say is this: [Wed May 11 00:08:01.999028 2022] [mpm_prefork:notice] [pid 369] AH00163: Apache/2.4.29 (Ubuntu) mod_fcgid/2.3.9 mpm-itk/2.4.7-04 configured -- resuming normal operations [Wed May 11 00:08:01.999063 2022] [core:notice] [pid 369] AH00094: Command line: '/usr/sbin/apache2' [Wed May 11 01:22:49.787628 2022] [mpm_prefork:notice] [pid 369] AH00171: Graceful restart requested, doing restart [Wed May 11 01:22:49.957210 2022] [mpm_prefork:notice] [pid 369] AH00163: Apache/2.4.29 (Ubuntu) mod_fcgid/2.3.9 mpm-itk/2.4.7-04 configured -- resuming normal operations [Wed May 11 01:22:49.957237 2022] [core:notice] [pid 369] AH00094: Command line: '/usr/sbin/apache2' Those don't seem to have anything to do with IPB as the site has been down consistently since 4/29. Everything is already set to 777, just double checked.

Alright, I will try to do 777 on everything and hopefully that works. I am on unmanaged hosting so I do everything myself and like I said, same setup on my other sites and they work just fine.

Reset the pw for the db user and triple checked the username and pw are correct in the conf_global.php file and that still didn't help. My WP websites work just fine with their DBs so it isn't my hosting setup or anything like that. I'm not sure what is causing this "Permission Denied" error. I get it on the main page now, too. Just did this and that didn't help. This is the only backend error and it doesn't make sense... [Sun May 08 15:21:10.316137 2022] [php7:error] [pid 10388] [client 147.182.248.182:53686] script '/var/www/fastuser/data/www/riverandreef.store/wp-login.php' not found or unable to stat, referer: http://riverandreef.store/wp-login.php Doesn't make sense because that file doesn't exist... That is my entire riverandreef.store/ directory. Test has some PHP files in it but nothing relating to wordpress... Checked index.php and that is the standard IPB index.php... I have zero clue where this is coming from. There are no other errors, no frontend errors or anything.

I'm getting a 500 error when I visit my site. I just switched hosts, the DB has been uploaded and the new DB details were added to the conf_global.php I googled a bit and it said to check in uploads/logs directory but there is nothing there. No clue why this is happening.

They replied in another thread in this section just saying this isn’t possible. I think it needs to be added though. Makes no sense why you can see contact us if you can’t fill it out as a guest.

This keeps happening and I don't know why. Themes do not get created unless I import them from the marketplace. I just want to create a copy of the default IPS theme. Code: OutOfRangeException: (0) #0 /home/codinghelp/riverandreef.store/init.php(913) : eval()'d code(69): IPS\Patterns\_ActiveRecord::load(NULL) #1 /home/codinghelp/riverandreef.store/system/Node/Controller.php(495): IPS\ipskitaddons_hook_IPS_Theme->form(Object(IPS\Helpers\Form)) #2 /home/codinghelp/riverandreef.store/system/Node/Controller.php(394): IPS\Node\_Controller->_addEditForm(Object(IPS\Theme)) #3 /home/codinghelp/riverandreef.store/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(90): IPS\Node\_Controller->form() #4 /home/codinghelp/riverandreef.store/system/Node/Controller.php(69): IPS\Dispatcher\_Controller->execute() #5 /home/codinghelp/riverandreef.store/applications/core/modules/admin/customization/themes.php(59): IPS\Node\_Controller->execute() #6 /home/codinghelp/riverandreef.store/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(153): IPS\core\modules\admin\customization\_themes->execute() #7 /home/codinghelp/riverandreef.store/admin/index.php(13): IPS\_Dispatcher->run() #8 {main}

It looks like it works out of the box as I tested it out with a product on my site and it works fine. Just wanted to let you know.
