Our server have been marking these emails as spam and are now getting blocked due to the large number sent. Many of our members receive this email every time they sign into their account, regardless if they seem to sign in from a new device or not. This poor guy here is inundated with these emails: To make matters worse, there is no opt out from this feature for our members. It is all or nothing. To constantly ask our members just to ignore these emails when they get them, is no longer an option for us and we now turned off this feature in ACP settings. We would like to use this feature, but under its current limitations and faults, it is of no use to us. This feature has become an annoyance to our members and marking our IP as a spammer.

Sent you a PM.

My members are getting this error when they have a member/s on ignore within the topic. This topic has around 115 pages with over 2700 posts.

I'm not sure if this has been reported or not, so forgive me if this is the case already. I seemed to have come across an issue with the Helpers\Form\Members class. Example: $form->add( new \IPS\Helpers\Form\Member( 'member_id', \IPS\Member::load( $member->member_id ), TRUE, [], NULL, NULL, NULL, 'member_id' ) ); Any form using this form element ill lose its value/s after you refresh the page the form is on. All other elements display correctly after a page refresh. Can anyone else confirm?

Okay, I should have looked into this more before I came here to post and I feel rather silly (more than usual 😆) for not picking this up sooner. With the Poll block being cached for 1 minute (Due to the cache settings), when they vote, the do not see the changes happening straight away. So they think their vote has not taken place. Some also think because they can click on the 'Show Vote Options' and vote, that their previous vote hasn't happened either. Question, when are we going to get a more modular approach to caching items and blocks on the suite? Would really like to have more control on which blocks I would like to cache or not, and the cache ttl on each block as well. The same for applications like Pages, where I would just love to set cache lifetime on the articles and only update the cache when it is updated. Please please pretty please! 😁

That's pretty much it. I am going to test for caching issues here. Will get back to you and let you know if I find something.

As far as I can tell. My members are voting in the topic, but when they view the block, they still have the option to vote via there. When they return to the topic with the Poll, they say that they are able to vote again, as in they have never voted previously. I have had to remove the option for them to vote via the block for the time being.

Come across an issue with the Polls Block. The Poll block still allows you to vote in a poll even though you have voted in that poll via the topic. Yes caching is on, but I have never had this issue before.

Yeah, if the option to edited these fields for the title and content really should be removed or should work as that would remove a lot of ambiguity when editing these settings.

I have just checked and this doesn't work for Title fields. My suggestion would be to edit the templates and add your prefix and suffix to the Title there?

Thanks for the info. There was only 700+ emails being sent out in total, shame you couldn't put a time on each cycle 😉 I have already been looking into SendGrind, but it's not really worth it as we only do bulk emails once every blue moon. Thanks.

I have set the constant BULK_MAILS_PER_CYCLE to 100, however bulk emails are still being sent out at 400 a time. \define( 'BULK_MAILS_PER_CYCLE', 100 ); Thus my emails are getting temporarily deferred due to unexpected volume. Is this correct or am I missing something here? 🙂

What IOS are their IPads running on? If they are not on IOS 14, then they need to upgrade IOS or their hardware. Edit: I see you are using IOS 14.8. Have you tried clearing your cache for your browser or trying using another browser rather than the default installed one. Try installing Chrome and see if you get the same issues.

There is a pulldown menu where you can select the forum to pull posts from. I will have a look at adding tags in a future version.

From what I have seen. You can still log into your ACP, but because your CSS styles are not included it will make the page hard to read. You should still be able to navigate around to be able to get to the Clear cache functions in ACP.

You mean when you create a Page block? Yes there are some instances where you can cache a block, and these are normally with 'custom' page block, and will be found on the content tab underneath the editor window. Like this:

I just thought I would give you an update on our situation. After speaking with our forum and staff members, they made it clear they didn't want to move to another forum software and some even offered to pay our fees (which was amazing tbh). After the news about restoring the 6 monthly payments, this makes it easier for us payment wise and we will be sticking around for a little while longer. As for the support, I may have been a bit hasty at first! So thank you for listening to us regarding the yearly payments, that does help. 🙂

You will find block cache settings in the AdminCP, System/Settings/Advanced Configuration under the 'Server Environment' tab and then look for Performance. You will see 'Cache sidebar, header and footer blocks' settings. However, you cannot turn block settings off, but you can bring it down to 1 minute.

Ahhh so that explains the confusion here, thank you for the clarification Charles. 👍

I'm not on the cloud servers and I did receive the email mentioned. Maybe ended up in your spam folder?

Yes, you can create as many different version of the block. With this, you can select which forums you want to display topics/posts from and customise it further. I personally have never had issues with this plugin showing up in the manager, if this happens to you, please let me know and I will look into this issue.

This is free and will do what you want.

Won't break anything. Running them manually will speed up the process, however, you won't be able to change settings within the Admincp while this is working away.

The plans changed this week and an email sent out to inform everyone, maybe check your spam folder?

Did you try and run them manually?
