Jim M got a reaction from IT_Worxx in Validation Link Incorrect
You would do this in SendGrid. If you need assistance with their platform, please contact SendGrid.

Likely that is coming from SendGrid. However, if additionally, you have any modified email templates in ACP -> Customization -> Emails. You will want to revert those as well to save yourself any headache.

Jim M got a reaction from Miss_B in Can't do reactions: I get a warning I don't have permission
Going into the System Log there would give us more info if it's even related.
Agreed. Very good step.

Jim M got a reaction from David N. in A user edited their post, can I revert the edit?
Hard to say how large that size would be as it would be highly variable to the variations of edits being logged. If you find value in that and people aren't editing the whole entirety of War & Peace into their post replies, I would guess that the average size is negligible.

This is due to your attachment storage is at 99%. You would need to delete things in Account -> My Attachments: https://invisioncommunity.com/attachments/

Jim M reacted to Charles in From Human-Centric to AI-Driven: The Future of Forums in the Age of Artificial Intelligence.
I agree with all that.
I do think that AI has a place to learn and help humans discover good content. Like AI might notice people searching for a specific term and then auto-feature that content or make other assumptions to “magically” get you to great insights by people.
Another thing I think AI could be great at is curation. I don’t mean summaries. I think we’re all already sick of AI generated summaries. But imagine instead a topic with 100 replied. When the topic was new, those 100 replies were a great conversation discussing a solution. Now you read that topic 6 months later and you just want to get to the point. Sure, AI could generate a vague summary but what I would find more interesting is if it picked out the core most important human posts where I could get the point of the discussion while also reading the nuance of interactions that got people to said point. To me, that is an exciting use of AI.

Jim M reacted to KT Walrus in From Human-Centric to AI-Driven: The Future of Forums in the Age of Artificial Intelligence.
I hate that so many search results these days point to AI generated content. The pages on the internet should all be human generated unless the domain uses the .ai TLD.
Please don’t be tempted to integrate AI content into Invision Community.
As a user, I want to read human generated content on the web. If I want an approximate answer, I will use an AI agent.
Nothing would be worse than visiting a forum and later finding out that it is simply a bunch of AI agents discussing amongst themselves. What a waste of time reading content like this.

Jim M reacted to Charles in From Human-Centric to AI-Driven: The Future of Forums in the Age of Artificial Intelligence.
I cannot disagree more.
What we are seeing is a renewed interest from search engines and such in human generated content. Some of our largest clients are putting a lot more resources into fostering their communities as they see people tilting toward wanting to trust that they are interacting with other people rather than bots. This is not just my opinion: it’s backed up by metrics and money spent.
You can get AI generated content literally anywhere which means it adds no value to a community experience. A platform like Invision Community creates a places where humans can share their knowledge, opinion, and experiences.
There is a place for AI in what we do and you will see us adding more AI features soon. But we will focus on AI helping humans discover the best human content for you to enjoy.

Process was flawless as per usual. 🥳

Jim M got a reaction from NoobForumAdmin in Attachment downloads not working
You're on our cloud so I have transferred this to a ticket for you.

Jim M got a reaction from David N. in Can't find a user in the ACP when searching for display name?
How are you searching this? The three characters may not be enough (generally, MySQL search requires 3 or more characters) or you may be exceeding the amount of results due to too generic of a term.

Jim M got a reaction from Verto in how to increase the session expiration time, in the Admin CP?
Can look in init.php for all constants. ACP_SESSION_TIMEOUT is in seconds to consider the session valid for. Generally, I do not recommend extending this unless you are in a local or secured development/testing environment.

Jim M got a reaction from Verto in migrate the forum to a self-host, no see mys posts
If it continues to happen, watching your server logs to see if something is happening while these are writing may be important. Whether that's a server restart, high resource process, etc... anything that could interrupt or slow down your server writing.

Oh, clearing my browser cache fixed the issue.

Jim M got a reaction from zenzoidman in Analytics button in topic view gives theme error even in default theme
Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! I can confirm this should be further reviewed and I have logged an internal bug report for our development team to investigate and address as necessary, in a future maintenance release.

Jim M got a reaction from ANONYMOUSKOREAN in Pre-sale question about Invision 5.
The real-time features are only available on our Cloud as they interact with our services there and are not just PHP/Javascript.
We do have polling to be as close to real time as that limited technology will allow. This will let users know that they have notifications or a new post on the topic has been made but not things like "Someone is typing" or instant appearing of replied posts while viewing.
We do not recommend directly modifying our code. It likely is possible to make a custom application to do so but this would be outside our scope of support.

Jim M got a reaction from Marc in Spam bots attack...
Glad to hear that its behind you 🙂 . Hope you continue to do better.
Wouldn't go too crazy over it. Think you just need to avoid math questions, things outside of your niche which may be easy like "Who is the President of the USA?", what color is the sky, etc... I would also say that including questions related to your niche which may not be easily Googled or ChatGPT'd but also your audience would instantly know are good things.
The goal is a happy balance of stopping (most) spammers and not frustrating your users. Some spammers are going to get in regardless of what you do as these are human spammers too so having a strategy maybe of putting a user's first post into a moderation queue may also be a good thing.

Jim M got a reaction from savannahjan50 in Problems after migration
You can check the PHP version in ACP -> Support. That will tell you directly what our software is using in case you may have multiple configurations.
Your hosting provider would need to provide these settings for you or tell you the best way to send mail on their server. Host name is generally the server you are connecting to. If you provide these fields to your hosting provider, they should be able to tell you the corresponding values.

The theme being an unmodified theme? Just wanted to verify

Jim M reacted to Day_ in Beta 9 is now on the table!
Not sure what's more sad here, the fact someone was working on Christmas Day, or you've even had to defend yourself here.
Whilst I know not everyone celebrates Christmas, for Western countries it's been fairly common period of time off with family, too much food and alcohol.
I'd like to think most customers like myself have not expected to see any Beta or final release over Christmas!
Crack on now though, it's over with, get us our final release yeah? Chop chop!
