the credentials I have are from August, I will ask if they have changed the password since then. I posted in the notes section of the popup window, the whole txt with all credentials in case there is something I missed or entered wrong ? if they are still wrong then there is a new password maybe and i will asap get it and report here

hello, i just did that. i dont have different login credentials for admin htaccess, maybe its the same login as the others...

Hello! I have a server administrator, who is not an expert in IPS - and i manage the 2 forums i own, now running on 4.3 and 4.4. on a 7.4 php server . When the 8php is changed, I want to upgrade. I cannot afford the time and effort and dont have the knowledge (I also have to care for my mother (parkinson) my daughter and day to day issues) so I am requesting - asking how much money would someone need to help out with the process of upgrading (will need to be able to access the server). the plugins we have, are available for the newest version (except for the enhanced advertising app that will be made) there is no modification only a theme, also not greatly edited. The theme, is something I can handle ( do do some copy pasting etc) I dont want to burden my server administrator in learning this process because he has other jobs to attend to, and the deal we have is not about upgrading this software etc. Myself i dont touch server issues, i only have been dealing with my forums past 17 yrs but not with all that upgrading, and the previous ones were done automaticalyl, I read that this one should i deally be done in a different way manually, because of the version of 4.4. -4.3. Do you have any ideas? how much would someone need to be paid to do this? [Also - if someone is interested can provide maybe with something as an exchange. like German, Greek lessons, tips about traveling to Greece, Drawing (am originally an artist...) psychology and kids (subject of my website) for the extra hours of work]

can you please explain what you mean by the "full upgrader"? where is that, how is an admin using it I am educating myself because my forums are neglected too unfortunately... I only know how to automatically upgrade. the one is 4.4.2 (smaller one) and the other is 4.3.6 (larger one)

thank you, every answer counts. the php is the same for both, there havent been done any changes or different modifications the two forums are exactly the same with same plugins etc/ same usage. My serveradmin will not do changes without telling me, but its noted! can I ask here - its it possible that an embed code for instagram can do such damage, maybe if this was the problem, there can be a sollution found there? I have since deleted the advertising /instagram embed, to make sure. I will note here, that I had experienced a forum crash , when I set it up the first time , but it was temporary, i ran the tool at the support , i disabled all 3rd party, and enabled them and it was that embed code from instagram that created that. But now, this, has done real damage. Maybe you all have thoughts on that? Just in case the solution is simpler. ?

thank you so much for your answers and your time... will forward them to my serveradmin, he reads this topic now. @Jim M I dont know about the folder names at all. remember I have 2 different licences of invision on the same server and only the one is not working properly. the other one is doing just fine. parents.org.gr parentscafe.gr so the reason cannot be on the server side, no? this is what we had to conclude to yesterday, are all the above comments irrelevant to that? . I am deeply horrified that google will cause trouble and ofcourse the users not being able to follow the links since they all just lead to the home page of the forum! Its a 250.000 unique users per month non profit website for medical purposes too, so I am really saddened, hope it can be solved fast. @Marc Stridgen hello, is there just not a way to restore this by reuploading the software ? how can the other site be working well, (parentscafe.gr) if its a server side issue? if today will not be solved i think i will tell my serveradmin to reset the whole server to the thursday back up, when everything was still working fine ? shrug...!

and google traffic is not taking the user to the correct link when friendly urls is disabled so this means i need to fix this asap...

No changes had been made at server level... I hope you can help me with at least providing me the closest upgrade to the version 4.3.6 than Is currently installed, so that the software can be restored ? What else needs to be done to have the friendly urls etc all working ? to recap. when friendly urls settings are enabled forum breaks. when they are disabled, forum works. what needs to be restored?

htaccess has been checked etc. - when disabling all thirdparty apps and - when disabling seo friendly urls the problem disappears the forum works good. - what will happen to my seo traffic if i disable them to keep the website working? - I need to put back the on the advertising/enable the plugins... -we have an expired ssl does that matter in any way? -------------- when enabling the friendly urls the forum is not working, and its not server related according to the server admin ! when googling results, it is not taking you to the correct link. so this is not good

My server the same one, has another forum, domain parentscafe.gr that has the version 4.4.2 and this one is working just fine. Is ist possible that i have access to upgrade to 4.4.2? it looks like the software has been corrupted somehow (?) The only change i did today, was to change the embed code of an instagram post in the normal advertising module. this is when the issues started.

we are on it but still no repair. ... all services have been rebooted on the server and the server does not seem to have an issue. is it possible to upgrade to a version that is compatible to 7.4 ?

thank you so much. Yes I want the upgrade to happen asap but am depending on the server admins for going 8 php..... will report further what i wll do so that you are updated.

now I am seeing, that the error has disappeared , but the content is not loading at all. I have requested the server admins to reboot the server maybe to see if it solves?

and how can this only affect one forum and not the other? isnt that strange? does it have to do with php versions ? and how did it change just now? while 10m ago it was ok? yes I will do that right now because no topic is being served. maybe a reset of the server will help? I will report back asap. about the out of date version,, I know, our server has not been upgraded to the 8 php version that is necessary yet, so we cant upgrade. they dont have this as a work environment yet, this is what i was told.... The only thing that has changed in the last weeks is an added <head> script for an advertising company ist that something that can have such an effect or is it something completely irrelevant? but it was not now, rather 3-4 weeks ago... too far away. (far fetched? technichally unrelated?)

?do=editTags this is also not working and now all topics are not working? wth! https://parents.org.gr/forum/topic/90755-apories-gia-xekinima-a-dimotikou/ they were before!(how?)

Thank you for your reply, this is what it looks like <IfModule mod_rewrite.c> Options -MultiViews RewriteEngine On RewriteBase /forum/ RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteRule \.(js|css|jpeg|jpg|gif|png|ico|map)(\?|$) /forum/404error.php [L,NC] RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-f RewriteCond %{REQUEST_FILENAME} !-d RewriteRule . /forum/index.php [L] </IfModule> unfortunately my old admin is not with me anymore. what could have happened with it? is that a wrong version? I have 2 invision forums on same server but only the one exhibits this problem. the htacess file, i just checked is exactly the same in both. ! (!!?) So what is the error actually ?

Hello, I am getting this error when clicking on a link that has this ending ?do=getNewComment ?do=getLastComment from the home page. in fact every link from the forum homepage, , on the right column creates this error message even a profile link https://parents.org.gr/forum/profile/4-syntonistis-periechomenoy/ and every profile link ist not working plus ?do=findComment&comment=1862203 this also from the stream feed also creates same error https://parents.org.gr/forum/topic/90755-apories-gia-xekinima-a-dimotikou/?do=findComment&comment=1862203 i tried disabling third party apps etc it didnt solve issue ... can someone help?

thank you. yes like mentions. I know I can add them as a link, but a real tag would look much better 😍 to click on than a boring link 🤩 maybe @Adriano Faria knows something?

I would like to ask here, if this is possible in the latest versions: is it possible to insert a tag, into a post? thank you very much in advance!

I am currently running 4.3 and 4.4 Invision versions on a php 7.2 server which they will update to 7.4 imminently. The serveradmin just asked me if its ok to also at the same time update to 10.3 Maria db (which they have running) because my server still has 10.1 maria db. 1) Will I be ok with Mariadb 10.3 for now? 2) and, when in the future I will update to php 8 for 4.7 invision, should i watch out for something with the Mariadb version ? Will it also have to be renewed updated once more ? thanks in advance

Hello! I was planning to change from php PHP Version 7.2.34 (running now) to 8, to upgrade to the latest invisiion version, but this wont be possible now according to my serveradmin since they havent concluded their works yet for all their servers to have php8. they will however to to 7.4 immediately if i tell them, since that is already in their systems/servers. I am currently running (own server) as said the PHP Version 7.2.34 Invision Community v4.3.6 one domain and the other Invision Community v4.4.2 will they be ok at php 7.4 ? thank you very much in advance (should they use above checker for something?)

Hello, I have previously translated the english language pack , to the language of my country, and have been using it successfully on 4.2. My plan to update from 4.2 to 4.7 has been delayed, but since i have some days of free time and could use it to translate the 4,3 => 4,7 phrases that will be adding up, I was wondering If I could somehow, on beforehand, i.e. before updating to 4,7 , translate the new phrases while running on the 4.2 .... ? is that technically possible/ feasible? (it would help me have less workload after the update and concentrate on the others) thank you in advance!

Hello, anyone any news about newbieLac,.... its been a really long time 😞 Searching for a way to update some of his plugins that I have had for a long time now for 4.7 and php8

hello me too, I would also chip in! for both, after posts and after topics plugins! is an update needed for upgrade in 4.7 with php8 ? How is newbie LAC.....?

A question 🙂 Since its been many years I dont remember anymore. This change, which had been done when previously switching software platforms previous topic link: /forum/showthread.php?t=49855 redirecting to the matching invision topic : /forum/topic/13855-epitychia-se-lagocheilo-kai-lykostoma/ will this continue to be working after the above update / will it stay unaffected? I dont remember where this change had been set up, I guess on server-level and not on the software itself? Or am I mistaken? It might be irrelevant but I want to be better safe than sorry!
