SeNioR-

I'm getting problems with a PDF, that always seems default at my end, to downloading it.  We used to be able to embed a document in a post.

If you’re using the IPS cloud, you already have a CDN. If you’re self-hosted, there are several simple CDNs that basically “just work”.  Some like Cloudflare are even completely free. 

It's in the next beta.

CAPTCHA is already in use on the Contact Us page. This would include hCaptcha.

By any chance would this be able to extend to the Contact Us page as well?

Very well, thanks

Well, been with IPB about 20 years... maybe 19 years and months, still believe this is the best board script out there... 🙂
 

Couldn't have done it without you. I'd have more hair though. 😎🥰

Awesome. I'm upset with myself I don't have any screenshots of my first forums running IPB. The software used to be free back then! 😮 

My journey started 26.XII.2005. Loong time ago. It was a love at first sight. 😉

I started out in '96 with a cgi script every post / reply was a file on the server. Then switched to UBBTreads that uses sql and php. Then there was an upset in that community and several devs left and started FusionBB was on there till it floundered in '09 and I found my way home here. 

The short version is that I built another platform called Ikonboard, got overwhelmed, sold it to someone who made promises and then broke those promises. This someone had also bought something Charles built. Charles and I decided it was time to move on so started "IBForums/Invision Power Services" together. From that time, I think only Rikki was involved in Ikonboard although most of the team have been with is for 10-15+ years.

Congrats 🥰 Was such a joy to be part of the team for 8 of those years.

I noticed the homepage title now contains the word "creators". Are we going to see new tools or features targeted to towards content creators?

We have a few other surprises to celebrate our twentieth anniversary. We can't wait to share them! @Matt
Can't wait to see those! Congrats to you and your team for being successful. 

Ipb has come a long way since you guys founded it 20 years ago. It has become the undisputed leader in the forum software world. Congratulation on 20th anniversary, and I wish you guys many more years of success. 

I was an early adopter back in 2002 when the software was free and in direct competition with phpBB, though I have to say that there was no real competition as Invision Board was streets ahead and a far easier to manage piece of software.  It was the year of Pop Idol and the final was being fought between Will Young and Gareth Gates - Will Young won it and a community sprung up which I joined singing (no pun intended) the praises of Will Young.  It was on phpBB and whether it was the software or the server the site kept going down, much to the frustration of its members, so I offered an alternative using Invision Board.  I can't remember what I called the site, but everyone referred to it as Will's summer house and everyone used to flock to it when the other went down.  It was a fun time and it lit the fire beneath me that keeps me coming back and opening up sites - though none of them garner much interest these days because of DSM (that's dumb social media), but I could care less because I get as much fun out of engineering sites as I do seeing those few who join and use them.
My favourite site is one I dropped a little while ago and I am now feeling the pangs of regret infiltrating my mind to the extent where I may just bring it back and if no one uses it I don't really care, because I will get fun out of breathing life back into it and using it myself lol.
This software has come a long way since those heady days when opening a site saw hundreds of people joining up in a matter of days, the software has evolved greatly whilst the audience capacity has devolved, but there's a trend that often sees things go around in a circle and what once fell from grace becomes fashionable again and I can see this happening with forums when DSM is reigned in and the companies responsible for them are brought to task; that's starting to happen now, so who knows, we may see forum audiences flocking back to us in the near future (he says whilst not holding his breath lol).
Congratulations to the team for their persistence and endurance and bringing us to this momentous milestone 🙂

@Matt it goes even further back for me as I still count the original Ikonboard days!  It was the failed experiment that lead to the one that actually worked!
In terms of memories… there are too many for me to pick just one:
@Charles picking me up from the airport near Appomattox explaining how Virginia was not a state but a commonwealth.  The panicked support tickets to reboot a server and @Lindy saving the day and talking me off the ledge when IPS still sold dedicated servers.  Meeting you and learning about the migration from Perl to PHP.  Working through the upgrade from IPB3 to IPB4 thinking the conversion would NEVER finish… and then when finally turning the board back online and members saying “oh wow!”  

I have been here since Invision Power Board v1.1 way back around 2002. It is great to see @Matt and company develop and grow over all these years from a small start up to a titan of the forum community, many congratulations!
Glad I decided on choosing the correct option of IPB vs vBulletin all those years ago. Never looked back and been a happy customer ever since.
If there is only one criticism it is the recent change in support, barring that blemish here's to another 20 years of success... 👍
Ted.

Congrats IPS! My first order was in 2004...where do the years go?

Boy how I miss these:

Now I feel old. Fantastic.
Hello from 2004 as well:

 
99'999 Posts! Around 2004.

And some time later:

 
 
This long-term customer base is proof of the great work you do! Thank you so much!
 

One of our sites from 2007, ah the memories!

It's still going strong today, celebrating over 20 years and still with Invision. Moved to them in 2007, before that was PHPBB.

The updates this year were pretty sweet, but... This article is a bit misleading. The growth in community engagement here was due to shipping support over to the forums and from when the community came together to push back on the IPS team for radical changes with no warning or solid explanation.
So technically engagements are up from new features, but not in a good way 😛 Either way, I love it here. Just wanted to point that out ❤️

The community I manage has mainly been a discussion forum. But since there are these days so many options to just discuss (Social Media etc.), I gradually changed it into a Support Community. 
While the community is still in a "change-process" and I still need to adapt a few things to make it more look like a Support Forum, I think it was a change in the right direction. 
The feature and function I love most: "Topic solved. Go to the solution...". 🙂
