    Someone should correct me if I'm wrong,

    Looks like you're wrong.

    There is no ordering on the select query that creates the block listing - it's at the mercy of the order in which the widgets were added to the core_widgets table, which would be the order in which applications/plugins were installed (System likely first, then order of installation of other apps)

    How did you contact Reddit to unblock your IP? 

    I followed the instructions in the blurb they provide as a response to the request - and that is in this post, with links (obviously, you'll need to provide your server's IP instead):

     

  3. Just to add for anyone reading the above -

    if you go to http://www.reddit.com/oembed?format=json&url=https://www.reddit.com/r/reactjs/comments/14s3r1j/adding_the_new_threadsnet_social_share_button_to/?rdt=53260&scheme=https (this is the URL produced by Invision to connect to Reddit to get the oembed code) it will redirect to the https equivalent:

    https://www.reddit.com/oembed?format=json&url=https://www.reddit.com/r/reactjs/comments/14s3r1j/adding_the_new_threadsnet_social_share_button_to/?rdt=53260&scheme=https

    ...and produce the expected response.

    I am not indicating here that it's going to fix things for those currently blocked (you will need to contact Reddit to get your server IP unblocked) nor am I indicating here that the change by Invision will stop people being blocked going forward - I am only indicating that in my case above, we have not seen any further blocks since making the change after the second unblock being done.

     

  4. Just as a bit of information to add to the mix here...

    A few weeks ago I assisted someone on a problem with Reddit embeds on their own site (non-Invision) which had the same problem - Reddit unblocked their IP address, but a few days later it was blocked again. Contacted Reddit again, they unblocked it but advised us to review the embed code being used. It was then that I spotted that the URL being used for the oembed endpoint was http://www.reddit.com/oembed - updated it to https://, and we've not seen any further blocks.

    The endpoint for reddit in \IPS\Text\Parser is http://www.reddit.com/oembed

    I would like to protect from guests the Personal Information and contact parts of user's profile

    Before diving in to that custom app idea...might be an idea to show, in a screenshot, what you are referring to for hiding.

    Why?

    Because profile fields, which might be what you are referring to by "Personal information" can already be hidden from view:
