Be careful with that. 
If you do that, you don't get the "active" css class assigned  that formats the menu differently when the menu is active. I've submitted a ticket but @Marc Stridgen refused to validate that as something that needed to be corrected. He says that is a "feature" and there's nothing wrong with that. Which i, with all respect, disagree.
The only remedy in the face of the refusal of IPS to solve this is to develop a javascript snippet to insert icons for each particular menu.

Is there anything so wrong with ckeditor? Is it because of it that people don't participate in discussions? 
What's the best editor for me? Any editor that gets the job done,

Try to understand what the error message is trying to tell you: the string "attachment_file_missing - /home/halu/public_html/Yabbse/attachments/32318_t1_ashx_attach1idRgAAAADmmEv9PKKvQ4oBqRQNZomPBwDC2fzi22fpGYTZtymL8wbDrEAADR2fin7AABdHAnbM02eT5ABpTWls3feAAAEk4LJAAAJattid0EADy2fJG2FKMNRrXCQhwtWxz3attcnt15feb5c740bb9f0b99780181b69294c07" is too long to be inserted into the column log_message.
This is because... it is too long, really. I mean the column "log_message" data type is probably configured to accept smaller strings, so you have two choices: trim the string to fit the maximum allowed data type length, or modify the data type to accept longer strings. I would personally prefer the second option to avoid losing any particular useful log info.
Execute this SQL query:
Describe convert_logs And see what is the output. Probably the type of the log_message field is Varchar(somenumber). If it is, execute this query:
Alter Table convert_logs Modify column log_message LONGTEXT And run the conversion again.
 
From another perspective in what concerns to the conversion process: mind what the log is also saying: there is an attachment that was not found. If you end up having many logs like this, your newly converted forum will have "void" attachments. If it is just a couple of these logs, you should be fine.

CKEditor 5 was made from scratch, and from what i've seen, it works really well. I don't see the point in moving to a different editor.
What we need is Invision to finally decide to migrate to the new version, but because it was made from scratch, t's not a simple upgrade, but rather its a migration and it will give them a lot of work.

The problem with "ad serving software" is that they are easily defeated by adblockers because you have to inject their .js in the code.

@Sonya* , yes but the IPS advertisement system has some advantages:
it can "escape" adblockers because it is virtually a normal content block that is placed, so unless you use "standard ad formats" it will gets through adblockers performance It is integrated in IPS so users can buy directly at the site The only problem that i see with it is that the ad buyers can't track the performance (clicks or visualizations) of the ads they bought... of course you can use a tracking system and have them to check it outside IPS, but that is a extra hassle that users are not willing to have.
Duration period is an option, yes, but the user doesn't know if their ads are being seen and how many times they were seen. It is difficult to sell that for any potential buyer.

I have used it for some years. I have stopped because their code had responsiveness issues. Another issue was the slow performance at large projects. Self hosted was not enough. Cloud was too expensive. We have changed to Ad Manager. 
The earnings for banner advertisements slowed down though. Paid walls, subscriptions, affiliates, writing and featuring content - this is where we are now 🙃

The ad system could use some work.
I wish I could allow users to pay first and then go setup the artwork and then publish it on their own time and that's when the meter starts. 
Also wish advertisers could change their artwork (with approval) at will - I have to be involved in the process. 
Plus see better stats. 
 
 

Generally, I would not recommend using IPS advertisement system to sell impressions. Use duration period (number of days) instead. IPS counts impression like page views. If the ad is placed below the fold and the user never scrolls to see it, IPS would count it nevertheless. Advertisers dislike to pay for ads that were not even displayed. 
If an advertiser has own tracking code, you can use HTML/JS code for the ad to place it, so that he can see in his tracking system the stats.

In important rule of (cyber) security is: don't expose more than what is strictly needed.
I would deny the access to that file.
What's the point of letting anyone to know what is the version you use? To know if a certain exploit can be used or that a vulnerability is present? You certainly don't want to provide rogue actors that valuable information.
 

When you put )|raw, it gets literally what it is stored at the SQL database with no parsing. The "listing" template parses it, so that's why you get the link and the thumb.
 Therefore, i would look into the SQL database to check what it has inside. If it is an array, you cannot directly have the url.jpg, as it has more than one item.
I have never used such a field so i am not particulary familiar on how it is stored at the SQL database

Currently have an app pending on marketplace that lets you use svg logo as one of the features 

Any news about this feature?

This is a prevalent issue since 4.0 was launched. IPS needs to fix this.

@TBL_Alex
Please post your support request in this topic, not via PM - I am asking you to do this as you have requested a refund, and I would like you to explain publicly what the issue is with the application on IPS 4.5
For the record:
The application is designed to work on IPS 4.5 I am not aware of any current issues with the version released over the weekend. If you are going to request a refund, then please be courteous and offer me the chance to support what ever it is that doesn't work for you.

Alright, 
Thanks for your answer. 

So i will take the decision to change the CMS for an other one. 

It's sad cause in my opinion they will loose lot of people and communities.

If you’re interested in display all non Editor fields in a tab, I can send a message. The Editor ones will keep having its own tab. You would still need the organizer plugin to see the order you want.

I'll submit it a ticket.
I use it myself for my apps and clients for their custom work, so i don't see why i wouldn't. 

2 Months passed. Is it really IPS staff taking this long to approve it?

When will this be updated to 4.5? 

Hey team! @Jordan Invision here. Slipping into my other account on Sunday funday to see what your thoughts are on this idea I've been thinking about. 
For many years, I've been interested in removing ads from my forum, but I think the standard subscription model for my community wouldn't go over well. I don't have any concrete proof, just a hunch. 
Now, if my members could actually earn money via Stripe for posting engaging content within our rules, that would be epic.

Recently, I've been writing articles on Medium. Their business model (to me) is brilliant. Everyone wins: Medium, the publisher and the readers. 
They explain in detail what it is (if interested check this out).
In a nutshell it's this:
A subscription model at $5 per month for unlimited reading
  Guests can view a few content items per month without an account/subscription
  Publishers can earn revenue on the content items they post
  Publishers earn revenue by subscribers reading their post
  The amount the publisher earns is based off of how many articles that reader read on Medium that month For example, someone pays the $5 and only reads 2 articles on Medium in total that month, you get a larger chunk of their $5 Or, someone could read 50 articles on Medium that month (including one of yours) and you receive a smaller chunk of their $5 --- 
I think the concept might sound a little confusing at first glance, but it's relatively simple. 
Essentially, the publisher is rewarded with money for posting engaging content. The community benefits by having people post content they want to engage with. The community is also incentivized to post engaging content as well because they could earn some of their subscription back and possibly make a profit. And the community owner of course takes a cut. Because the community is generating revenue, ads are no longer needed. 
This would need to track what content items users visited, then allocate an amount to that user based on their usage over a 30-day period. 
To me, this could be a game-changing application baked into Invision Community. I am writing this to see if anyone finds this kind of business model appealing, or think it's a waste of time, or...? Perhaps there are some huge drawbacks/downsides to this for a community. I'd love to hear your thoughts!
