I searched and could only find bits and pieces are guesses. Is there an official word on this?

For example, why is my score currently +136?

The members of my community want to understand how their reputation numbers are calculated. I agree with them. 
 

Thanks!

Okay, no takers.

On the product page one feature quoted is

• detailed installation instructions as PDF

Can anyone point me to where these instructions are installed? I was expecting them to be in /forum/plugins/superreview but no joy.

Any help would be most appreciated. 

Ah, I didn't think about this with the new marketplace. I just looked in my old downloads for the previous versions and I don't have the PDF, otherwise I would have uploaded it for you. On the other hand, no install instructions are needed with the marketplace method. 

@mutley Click on the additional information tab on this page it has all the instructions.

I’m sure this isn’t related to this plugin as it picks the country from the IP address and the issue happens when the user tries to change it in Account Settings and it’s resetting to the IP address country, so it has absolutely nothing to do with the plugin. 

Follow the file to get notified when it’s updated.

The issue must be with the plugin if manual changes don't work and you're issuing a fix for the plugin. Correct?

I'll test it but I don't see anything that points to this resource. Not a single mentioin to it in the whole error.

Thanks for looking. I agree that it doesn't seem like it, but it's really similar to the last issue and disabling this app was the resolution last time and has worked this time. 

Seeing some registration errors again. New users can register but are presented with an error after submitting a new registration. When I disable this app, it all works without error. 

Here is the error in AdminCP:

TypeError: Argument 1 passed to IPS\Member\_Device::loadOrCreate() must be an instance of IPS\Member, null given, called in /xxxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxx/audiophilestyle.com/applications/core/modules/front/system/register.php on line 243 (0)

#6 {main}

#0 /xxxxxx/xxxxxx/xxxxx/audiophilestyle.com/init.php(989): IPS\_Log::log()
#1 [internal function]: IPS\IPS::exceptionHandler()
#2 {main}

As a follow up, the "don't want to inform my country" option works for everyone. 

I'm running version 1.3.3 and I have all selected for Groups allowed to change/omit the country. However, only people in the Admin group can change their country and have it stay. Members can change it, but it changes back to the United States automatically. 

An amazing feature that would save me tons of time would be to see the country flag in the New registration admin notification email. 
 

Here’s why: For every user that signs up, we have to check the profile page for spam. Several times per day spammers complete their profiles with spam. To do this, we click the link in the new registration email. 
 

We’ve noticed 99% of this profile spam is from a handful of countries. If we saw the flag in our email, it would be one additional data point we could use to determine if a manual check is necessary. 

Hi Guys, this is a small nit pick type thing, but it's real. When a temp IPS admin account is created, it uses the email address nobody@invisionpower.com. Given that it's in the admin group, the account receives email notifications for that group. Because that account doesn't exist, all sites with an active IPS temp admin account will get bounce notifications like the one below. I've had this account enabled for a couple weeks while IPS support was helping me (thanks a ton by the way!), and I've received many of these bounce emails. I go through all of them to keep my email server in good standing. 

Request: Can IPS create an email user with that address and just make it a black hole that at least receives email without a bounce? It would make my life better :~)

That’s what fixed the issue. 

For those of us using IPS for our business I think it's going to be a while before the app is ready. Without ads my site wouldn't exist. I'll be patient though. The mobile interface is good, so no rush. 

I just installed this on 4.5.2 through the marketplace. I can't get the "Display country flags only in" setting to work. I currently have it enabled only in commerce but my flag is showing everywhere. Here are the settings i have enabled before launching it for every user. 

On 4.5.2 using Classifieds 2.2.0 Beta 2, the link to a member's store in their profile pages is gone.

Delete cache and cookies. Anyway I've just enabled redis and everything works fine. Go to support on the ACP and click on "something is not working"ish..

 

IPS support is looking at the issue and has escalated it. 

I just commented out everything in the myClubsSidebar template and it's good for now.

It sounds like what is happening is...

• Guest visits the page. It is rendered, and a cached copy (pointing to specific CSS URLs) is stored.
• ...At some point in between the last and next step, the CSS files are deleted and rebuilt.
• Guest visits the page. The cached copy is delivered, however it is pointing to the old CSS URLs and not the new ones.

If that theory is correct, I don't believe the issue would persist in v4.5 because CSS filenames are now static and rely solely on the 'v' query string parameter for cache busting.

I have the issue when I'm logged in as admin. I didn't test for guest. I just upgraded to nginx 1.19.2 and will try it again. 

edit. I'm on 4.5.2

Just tested it and have same css issue with php7.4, redis 6, nginx 1.19.2

This is not a plugin anymore. Disable it. You have to install the app available on marketplace. 

I’ll check the version today later. 

I have it disabled but can't install the app because it says it's already installed. If I remove it, will my members lose their ignored topic settings?

This plugin is causing an issue with new member registration. When people try to register they receive the following error and can't register. IPS support said it's the Ignore Topics plugin and I confirmed this by disabling it.

I have version 2.2.1 installed but I can't install version 2.3. Marketplace says it's already installed. 

I upgraded to 4.5.2 yesterday and Classifieds 2.2.0 Beta 2, but now nobody can register as a new member of my site. It appears that Classifieds is the issue. Please help.

EDIT: I disabled classifieds and still have the issue. Sorry, not you :~)

More of my community members are complaining about this today, after the 4.5.2 upgrade. Anyone else seeing this behavior in activity streams? Some of my readers just click on the Unread button to see what's new and now they see an entry for every comment rather than an entry for each topic with a new comment(s).

I am still running redis, but have turned off the "Cache page output for guests" feature (mine was set to 15 minutes) due to a bug with it that still exists. My site speed consultant @Adlago has also experienced the bug, and warned me not to use this feature. What happens is that the cache gets corrupted, for example it will cache a desktop version of the site with zero CSS, so the user experience is horrible, at least for that 15 minutes.

I was hoping the bug was fixed, but while I was running some speed tests I found proof that it still exists. In screen 1 is a normal speed test, and if you look at the test there is a screen shot of the page as it should look, and in screen 2 if you look at the screen shot it took of my site you will see a view of it without any CSS. Clearing my cache in the ACP: Support > Something isn't working right, made this go back to normal, and verify that it is indeed an issue.

Although it did speed my site up by ~10%, it is not worth the trade off. It's sad that a bug like this, one that I reported to IPB years ago, still makes this feature unusable.

Screen 1 speed test with normal screen shot view:

 

Screen 2 of a test on the exact same page, but in this one there is no CSS that got cached, and the screenshot reflects this:

PS - If google's spider is indexing a site without CSS, those pages are excluded from search results. Lot's of pages on your site could get indexed while this issue is occurring.

I have this same issue with redis and css. I had to disable redis for my site to load properly. Otherwise, every few clicks the css wouldn't load. 

Did you resolve this issue?

When I enable redis for caching and storage, and browse my site, I lose the css formatting every few clicks. Here's a screenshot. Disabling it resolves the issue. 

Any clue what's going on?

Redis server v=6.0.6

This is super confusing as worded in the ACP. Storage here refers to temporary things.

MySQL is used for all the things you think it would be. You can optionally set a setting that will put topic views and sessions on Redis too that reduces load on MySQL.

Wow. This is really strange. I assumed it meant not using mysql for anything, but your comment makes sense. Thanks so much!

I just moved to 4.5.2 from 4.4.10, and I want to use redis because memcache is deprecated. I installed redis on my dedicated server and went to enable it but see that I know have to use it for both caching and storage. I was under the impression that i could still use mysql for storage and redis for caching.

Question: If I enable redis for both storage and caching, does IPS no longer use mysql?

I just upgraded to 4.5 today, from 4.4.10, and believe I had to find the match manually. Once I did that it worked perfect.
