iirc; we had to build custom functionality for this; the caches will not be automatically rebuilt, but are necessary.

I had a similar issue on a beta/unstable Chromium build, the fix was, of course, using a stable Chrome version.

IPS won't do this because their cloud system doesn't work like this. However, we actually locally maintain our own Docker "master image" which has all of our custom apps and tweaks to IPS - as well as custom written ability to automatically upgrade (e.g. automatic database and IPS formatted application upgrades) as well as automatically install for testing branches etc. It doesn't actually require any changes to IPS' core code (at least for v4 😆), so you can definitely hire a developer or work on doing the same in-house if you want a serviceable Docker image. IPS give us the software, it's up to us how we chose to install/deploy/configure it.

There are definitely customizations that were possible before that won't be possible in IPS 5 for third parties. Whilst I'm sure IPS will make their event listener and extension system quite extensive, there are definitely cases where it will not cover. Compare that to being able to edit any class and any template dynamically via hooking, the level of power for third party developers is definitely not as strong. However, I'm looking forward to seeing the capabilities of the new system.

Using pagination on the leaderboard 'Past Leaders' tab doesn't work. You can reproduce on this community: https://invisioncommunity.com/pastleaders/ Try going to next page, or pick a page.

We're trying to plan whether to continue to use IPS or migrate to our own platform, so would love to have a look to evaluate.

The alpha testing group probably mostly consists of those who are at least experts or well-versed in using web technology and quick learners. @13.'s suggestion is probably more aligned with how I see normal users using it.

Google doesn't need to render the code. 2FA/TOTP QR code generation does not require data being sent to Google. There is not a need for IPS to be sending these codes to Google for rendering, it could be done locally. Google Authenticator is one app for 2FA/TOTP codes, but you can use other apps. Even Google Authenticator itself does not transmit/backup TOTP codes to Google unless you activate its optional backup function.

Is 2FA data really being sent to Google for rendering? 😕

To replicate on any IPS community: Create File Moderator subgroup, add it to Moderators, give every File/Downloads permission (including hide/unhide). Post a file where approval is required. Note that the file appears in the approval queue for a user in that moderator group. Post an update to said file, where approval is required. Note that the file is not shown in the approval queue for this moderator group, nor can they actually approve the file. I've fixed this on my community so I don't need this to be fixed upstream - but this is a heads up for a bug in Invision Community.

Moderators with all Downloads permissions granted do not see pending versions in the approval queue. Is there a permission I'm not seeing for pending files versions?

We're experiencing an issue with moderators with only file permissions granted being unable to see pending versions in the approval queue. I looked into this and there's a check in ./applications/downloads/extensions/core/ContentRouter/Files.php:49 where PendingVersion is only inserted where \IPS\downloads\File::modPermission( 'unhide', $member ) is true. However, since no container is provided, this will only return true if the user has global content unhide permission.

That's a complete bizarre modification DigitalOcean have made to MySQL. There are definitely use cases for not using a primary ID in some tables. As @Marc Stridgen mentions it's not even needed for replication. We also use replication on our self-hosted infra without this need. Be aware that if you make any schema change, IPS will attempt to undo it every upgrade.

The conversion page mentions new terms, could you link to them on that page or here? I can't seem to find them.

Also seen this - it's rare enough we never reported, but certainly seems to happen.
