Thanks to Support for dealing with this issue. As a bit of a digital dunce I can’t help but wonder exactly what happened? Anyhow, everything seems to be back to normal on my Board. I’m sure the Support team understands Board owners/admins and moderators frustration when they go down. These Discussion Forums/Suites etc are very important to the owners and as much if not more so to the Members. Mine was launched in 2002. And I still have charter Members who have been active for 22 years. Many freak out when they can’t get on Board.

They don't need to do anything, we made some changes to address the issue.

Yikes. Thought same thing. Those Members experiencing the blank screen/redirected URL have no way of reading how to fix this. I can’t see trying to email 100’s if not 1000’s of Members…

Is someone from Support going to chime in here with what’s going on?
I understand it’s the weekend but my Board and apparently others are down with a blank screen and a redirected URL to some Admin/Install URL.

Not happy to see people are having Boards go down on Firefox now as well as Safari etc. I’m staying away from my MacBook laptop….my device access are dropping like flies…that laptop might be my last line of defense…😳

Same for me on mine, and I'm getting messages from site users to say the same. It's weird, I can access on my macbook via safari and chrome, but on my iphone it's not having it at all, the page stays blank. This is the case as of postiing this post.

* I searched for a resolution to this and only found one Topic that was never followed up on or resolved. My apologies if I missed something, 
Since my daughter got an iPhone 15 all the photos she texts me will only upload and post as black on my Board.  (I typically save those photos to my iPhone 7 photo gallery and access them from there.) They upload but appear as black boxes as the thumbnail and when posted. It’s only her iPhone. Photos taken with her iPad and her husbands IPhone 14 upload and post fine.
I had her email me photos from her iPhone to my business email and my gmail account. When saved to my iPhone gallery from business email they still uploaded as black. When saved to gallery from gmail they uploaded and posted fine although at a lower file size.
Anyhow…I’ve attached a photo here from her iPhone that uploads as black on my Board but uploads fine on this community Board. Now I am truly bamboozled. Is there a setting in her iPhone that can be changed or a setting I can set in my Board software to resolve this?


 
 
 
 

Hi,
 
But we still have orange announcement on the top of the forum ))

There it is, that little bugger…I was looking for a “top left box”.
Thanks for prompt response. 

Thank you. I had the exact same question.

This is because the recipient email is not accepting the messages being sent from our server.
This has been in place for a while. See the blog on this from back in April last year
 
You can if the same issue occurs. For example, if their server is then rejecting it. They need to ensure the email address is valid, and that its not being blocked in any way. Adding to whitelist for example, so its not marked as spam.

The project is well underway. Not firm ETA, but it's coming to v4, so you won't need to wait for v5.

How’s this going? I’m suddenly getting hit with spam registrations as well. 

Thank you. I was able to log in to AdminCP and finish the Upgrade. I’ll look around and see if all is well.

Question: My Board is 20 years old. After the last major IPB Update, the last 15 years of my Boards Topics were automatically Archived, which rendered them Locked and Unsearchable. This left just 5 years worth of live Topics that could be found in a Search. I understand the need to streamline in order to save data and space but this automatic Archive was egregious.
If I was to go into my AdminCP and change that 5 years to say 10 years or even 15 years would the Topics within that time frame that are Archived be Unarchived and then Searchable?

If yes, how long would it take? (I only have..gulp..7mbps speed)
Should I take my Board Offline during this process? I ask because unarchiving a single Topic seems to tax the software and takes time. I don’t want to crash my Board.
Should I do the Unarchiving in small 1 or 2 year batches?

Question: I’ve had occasion in the past to delete Memberships for a variety of reasons. Generally I chose to keep the Members Content with the author to appear as “Guest”. Always worked and the Member showed up as Guest on all past Content. I recently deleted a Membership for let’s call him “Jim Jim”. I chose Options shown below. *But instead of “Guest” on all his past Topics and a Posts it shows “Guest Jim Jim” as author. Is this a glitch? Can I somehow remove the Members name?
What should happen to the member's content after the member is deleted?
Delete
Hide
Leave (I chose this)
Attribution
Continue to attribute to Jim Jim
Anonymize attribution (I chose this)
This will show content attributed to Guest and remove any stored IP addresses. Recommended when local privacy laws such as GDPR apply.
 
 
 

If you are using stock, then auto upgrade will be very stable. There was one issue that has already been patched in the upgrader, and most 3rd party issues have actually been related to updating to PHP 8 after upgrade, rather than anything else in any case. Of course you will want to ensure there is an updated version of your  theme available if needed.
