But the PHP scanner doesn't exist in Invision Community v4.7.1, why i have compatibility issues?

Your tech support here said that the best practice is to upgrade the server first to avoid this scenario.

Before the production server upgrade: Invision Community v4.7.1 with PHP Version 7.4.3-4ubuntu2.19.

After: Invision Community v4.7.1 with PHP Version 8.0.29

Hello,

After upgrading to PHP8 my pros site is no longer available,

Please help

It's possible that the theme does not support php8.0, or there's a missing component

An error occurred (500 Error)

Thak you! @Miss_B @Marc Stridgen

Ok,

Thank you. does this action could be a show stopper for my form?

Hello,

I have got this error in the support center.

"InnoDB database tables typically perform more efficiently and reliably than other database engines such as MyISAM on most modern hosts when configured correctly. It is strongly encouraged to ensure all of your database tables are using the InnoDB storage engine and that your hosting provider has configured MySQL for InnoDB use. "

I have indeed seen In the ACP SQL Toolbox that I have several MyISAM  engines running for some tables,

What is the safest what to the migration? Can I do it easily via the ACP or involve our system guy?

Ok, but there is no compatibility check that shuts down apps. Am i right?

Hi

My forum is currently running Invision Community v4.7.1 with PHP Version 7.4.3-4ubuntu2.19.

As the first step,

Is it safe to upgrade to PHP8 and remain on Invision Community v4.71? @Marc Stridgen @Randy Calvert

something will be disable in this situation?

And regarding the webmaster@yourdomain.com mailbox in your example, is this mailbox need to be created on my server forum site? With which Exchange server?

I can't create it via Google because they are blocking this mailbox, as it sends a lot of emails

Thank you, Randy!!! It's very clear to me now.

Does ipb have any sandgrid setaup menual guide?

i will clarify,

once someone's contact form email reaches the Google mail server specified in my MX records, the mail server will typically forward the email to my forum server? if not, how do i make google to forward all the emails to my forum? any setup and configuration needed?

Thank you @Randy Calvert

For the Inbound traffic,

I have checked the MX record for my domain on this site https://mxtoolbox.com/

And saw several MX Google servers answering my domain :

Your email service provider is "Google Apps"

But with some errors https://pasteboard.co/0cSS5AdrxEA5.png

What should i do? and now for the actual mailbox under this domain, where should I create it? on my forum server?

Mail from my personal forum domain is blocked. (hundreds of emails are going out from my forum per day, this is the reason)

I don't know how to integrate IPB with my SendGrid account for outgoing mail and make the incoming mail go via Google.

So complicated.

You can still use Google for sending and receiving email as normal.  Sendgrid can be setup by using SPF and DKIM to ALSO be able to send. 
 

You don’t need two mailboxes. 

IPB would send through Sendgrid. (Your outbound listed address may be admin@yourdomain.com). If someone replies, the reply would go to Google which would be the receiving server MX.  IPB does not need to be aware of INBOUND email. 

Google keeps blocking me.

If someone can guide and help me with this SendGrid integration(outgoing mail) and Google (incoming) , i am willing to pay

First Q,

I want filtering group promotion by two cumulative earned badges.I mean, only if the user gets both badges he will be promoted.

Does picking both of the badges in the promotion badge filtering accomplish this?

Another Q,

what is the best way to manually massive move users between groups?

Hello,
Is it possible to promote groups based on custom third-party app parameters?

Is there a technical guide for it?

You’ll need to ask the 3rd party developer to create the necessary extensions or have somebody else create the achievement extensions for it. 

Hi,

I have a developer who makes a custom condition rule for getting a badge.

This rule supposes to be activate automatic, right? with a notification getting a badge.

it's only logical that I  don't need to rebuild the system every time

Skip it, i don't want to upgrade.

We figured limiting ourself to 100% was just amateur, and we wanted to be better than that. 😄

😁

My site is in the middle of nothing and is available.

How is it possible?
Added rule, and rebuilding the achievement. it passes the 100%, hopes it will end someday🙄

Hi,

I am working on custom badges; what is the maximum badge size allowed?

I am not getting it.
If someone is available for this one, please quote me (linking from the menu in the desktop and from an icon on mobile to an existing personal page)

How do you advise me to do it?
I have a mobile navigation icon that I will need to lead to users same area (last opend topics sorted by opening date time)
