anyone else getting issues with private messages? all my DMs are showing this error: [[Template core/front/global/comment is throwing an error. This theme may be out of date. Run the support tool in the AdminCP to restore the default theme.]] Not sure when is started but I know for a fact it was working fine a few betas ago (when the notifications bug was fixed).

I get that, this makes total sense (considering your high prices for the cloud hosting), but your business started as a software, and some customers rely on that software. I have my own server (by the way, costs less than your cheapest plan..) and I use it to host my Wordpress website. This website also includes the IPS forums, with tight connections between them (custom automatic SSO, articles->topic and comments->messages syncing, etc) - I technically can't and won't switch to cloud hosting just for the forums - it simply won't integrate well with my entire website that I have around the forums. I believe you should offer your cloud hosting to the customers that are interested in that, and you can even have some cloud-only features if that it technically only possible to make these features under your own cloud platform. But what I don't understand is why you are limiting and blocking features, that as far as I understand, CAN technically run on the self-hosted software, and it's limited just because you decided it should be a higher-tier only feature - and that tier is unavailable at all for self-hosted customers, for no real reason other them trying to lure them into the cloud hosting option. Limit features - that's fine. Create higher tiers - that's fine. But let us actually choose these tiers, even if we choose to self-host the software on our own servers, for whatever (technical or not) reason.

but it is, because these features are not available for self hosted customers no matter what, not even if they are willing to pay for these extra packages...

All this talk about "packages" is really weird, considering we were just got forced to give up on our cheaper classic license (in order to install V5) and move to the new type of license - with the promise that this new license type includes all the packages (all in one) - with a technical reason that did make some sense - but now, this new "full license" is still "not enough"? now we need the "special package" (only available for cloud customers) in order to get all the features? The cloud plans are EXTREMELY expensive, considering I can get a dedicated server, strong enough for all these features and more, at less than 10% cost of these cloud plans... I totally get why you would want to attract customers to the (very expensive) cloud plans, but limiting some software features (for customers that are paying full price for the SOFTWARE) and making them availabing only for people who are also paying for your storage service - is not cool.

👍 👍

No fix for the followed topics notifications? very disappointing. This is a major feature and a major bug, IMO. Can you imagine Facebook without notifications on new replies to your replies? I don't know how the fact that this basic|major feature is not working can be ignored...

I just hope beta 5 will fix the major (at least for my community) notifications bug... Otherwise we'll have to wait another 2-3 days for beta 6 that should be release this Thursday 🫠🫠😇

Every time I glance at this forum index and come across titles like "v5" or "IPS 5," for a moment, I mistake them for posts about beta 5. 😞

i assume he means to change the menu items..

anyone?

I'm using the new feed view (not to be confused with the older "fuild" view), where each section (forum) shows recent topics from that section. Some forums shows 5 topics, while others shows less - sometimes even just 2 topics. It doesn't seem to be related to the last update of the topics, as the 5-topics forums shows topics that are older than the ones found on the 2-topics forums. What is the logic of this? is this limited by last update? date created? something else? Is there a way to control this?

I got this for these 2 system tasks: digest, profilesync errors: Error: Call to undefined method IPS\forums\Topic::averageRating() (0) #0 /home/hwzone/public_html/community/system/Email/Email.php(1030): IPS\Theme\email_html_forums_digests__item(Object(IPS\forums\Topic), Object(IPS\Email\Outgoing\SendGrid)) TypeError: IPS\Http\Url::external(): Argument #1 ($url) must be of type string, null given, called in /home/hwzone/public_html/community/system/Login/Handler/OAuth2/Facebook.php on line 321 (0) Are these two, yet again, related to some old files I should simply delete and get rid of?

I noticed that in both posts and users signatures, existing images that are attached to the post doesn't show up (there is an empty space) - and only shows up once you click on that empty space to open the image in the popup modal. This happens on the default theme with no modifications as well. Newly attached images works just fine. also, if i simply edit a post and re-add the attached photo to the post itself, it works just fine. Any idea? maybe some background conversions tasks didn't run?

I ran it, got to the "Done" message with no errors, but still no themeeditor language keys.. Moreover, I also tried to clear cache again and then noticed that my renamed _5 file just got renamed back to _2, so the "All caches have been cleared" was also empty again.. Looks like something is forcing the file to be root_js_lang_2.js (it will even rename it back to _2 if I manually change it to _5) but then trys to load the file root_js_lang_5.js...
