😆 Yes, that is how I see it. And ofc to be fair there were and are always a bunch of good features worth checking out. I assume there will be more to come in the next month 😉

Hi there, I can only speak for myself, but to me and I've read that from the IC staff, as well, we don't have to migrate soon. Especially for bigger boards it is a major migration with planning, development, testing and migration... so we usually do an intensive migration for major IC upgrades, i.e. 3>4 e.g. And I am pretty sure your community will profit from a fresh, modernized and up-to-date platform. As said: You have time. We are going to migrate definetely, but not before end of the year - or maybe somewhere in 2026. I see your points, but they are not so different as the question: Why should I buy a new car ;-)

Good to see how it evolved the last ...looking at my profile... gosh: 23+ years Great work! 🤩

This is uncommon as this sounds like your member use weak passwords and those accounts got compromised - at least you should consider this possibility imo. Good luck

Thanks guys, appreciated

Hi mates, I am observing from the sytem log that we are experiencing attacks on single attachment URLs. As it seems someone is hammering the attachment engine/URLs with random IDs: The URLs itself look like this: https://www.mcseboard.de/index.php?app=core&module=system&controller=ajax&do=attachmentInfo&attachIDs[14365]=true Now what is bugging me is: Why are they hammering those attachment URLs and why do they do that as a guest user. Case A: As guest an error is being thrown ("Sorry, there is a problem. Something went wrong. Please try again. Error code: EX0") in the frontend - thus the system log entry. Case B: If a logged in user tries to reach such an URL the output of the a.m. one is: Not that isn't really exciting as a result or desirable output. So I am wondering: why is this type of attachment URL being hammered? is there a known vulnerability or was there one in the past? what is the use of that URL, i.e. for what reason is the output presented to logged in users? and last not least: How to address it? Can those request be denied altogether? Or should I even bother as a valid error is presented to a guest user? I ignored such pointless requests showing in the system log, but there are plenty of it. Thanks, Thomas

Thank you, gotcha 🙂

Hi mates, just a moderate bump to my feedback or request: Please consider it to be included in one of the next releases. It is more of a gap or improvement than a new feature imo. Thank you, Thomas

Thank you, we're going to think about it 👍

That's a bummer, as it affects the automated mass emails to our +70K users and the very different use case of a human generated newsletter. So thanks. I wasn't blind, there is just no way 😞

That would affect all emails outgoing, not just bulk mails...

Hi mates, I am pretty sure I am blind here, but how to remove the default salutation when using the Bulk Email feature? Thanks, Thomas

Hi, an update from my side - got to know this Add-On to hide a spammer's profile with possibly stuffed "about me" or other spammy profile info: Block Banned Member Profiles - Applications - IC Essentials (ic-essentials.com) Works well and does what it should, I like and recommend it. BR

Thank you guys, checked as you suggested and yes: It was there. And verified via support ticket, as well - so we are good. 🙂 Thanks again, appreciated. Thomas

Hi, no issues identified. Apart of the a.m. error message all sections are clear without issues... BR
