Update says "Also includes 4.5.4.2" But Dashboard says im already running that if i see it correctly? And if not can i upgrade only to the latest 4.5 instead of 4.6? I'm still having a custom plugin that is not 4.6 ready at the moment... 🙂 [img]https://abload.de/img/invisionoik2p.png[/img]

I installed the latest version of the plugin and im running the latest version of ips. The options do not show up. Can you please update / fix this?

@DawPi Just installed the latest version of the plugin on the latest version of ips but this: https://dne4i5cb88590.cloudfront.net/invisionpower-com/monthly_2020_05/screen_1.png.cee033078c2aa2f43c6d8d11ad23224d.png Does not show up

The Update fixed it, thanks. 🙂

Okay thanks. 🙂

You submitted the last update on December 29, 2020. I have the latest version 5.5.3 installed but the issue is still there. Edit: Full error message: REPLACE INTO `links_groups` ( `links_g_id`, `links_g_access`, `links_g_contentcount`, `links_g_dontpay` ) VALUES ( 2, true, NULL, NULL ) IPS\Db\Exception: Column 'links_g_contentcount' cannot be null (1048) #0 /home/user/public_html/system/Db/Db.php(979): IPS\_Db->preparedQuery('/*detroitd_detr...', Array) #1 /home/user/public_html/applications/links/sources/Members/Members.php(60): IPS\_Db->replace('links_groups', Array) #2 /home/user/public_html/applications/links/extensions/core/GroupForm/Links.php(74): IPS\links\_Members::setGroupData(2, true, NULL, NULL) #3 /home/user/public_html/applications/core/modules/admin/members/groups.php(224): IPS\links\extensions\core\GroupForm\_Links->save(Array, Object(IPS\Member\Group)) #4 /home/user/public_html/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(90): IPS\core\modules\admin\members\_groups->form() #5 /home/user/public_html/applications/core/modules/admin/members/groups.php(39): IPS\Dispatcher\_Controller->execute() #6 /home/user/public_html/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(152): IPS\core\modules\admin\members\_groups->execute() #7 /home/user/public_html/admin/index.php(14): IPS\_Dispatcher->run() #8 {main}

Im getting an error when trying to edit guest usergroup settings. Other usergroups work fine. Part of the error message: Column 'links_g_contentcount' cannot be null Probably just something minor. But i hope you can tell me how to fix it so i do not have to look deeper into this myself. 🙂

https://invisioncommunity.com/files/file/7756-sd-company-directory/ I bought this off the developers website just a few days ago. Unfortunately i realized he passed away soon after the purchase. Well now i know why its not available in the marketplace anymore... Maybe anybody can help me with my problem anyway? After installing there are only entries for countries and not for cities and states. Can someone give me an .sql dump containing the cities and states for import? I do not want to add all states and cities by hand. I need at least states and cities for united states and canada but "worldwide" would be best.

Well i had the same issue. Here is how you can archieve this: Disable check links: # ###################### Open "applications/links/sources/link/link.php" and replace: (appears 2 times, change both) ------------------------------------------------------------ throw new \InvalidArgumentException( 'link_bad_url_url' ); with: ----- //throw new \InvalidArgumentException( 'link_bad_url_url' ); replace: (appears 2 times, change both) ------------------------------ $msg = \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->language()->addToStack( 'link_bad_url', FALSE, array( 'sprintf' => array( $response->httpResponseCode ) ) ); throw new \InvalidArgumentException( $msg ); with: ----- //$msg = \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->language()->addToStack( 'link_bad_url', FALSE, array( 'sprintf' => array( $response->httpResponseCode ) ) ); //throw new \InvalidArgumentException( $msg );

Well you cant stop that anyway. And if you are concerned about "basic users" generating problems you could simply make it so it can be turned on/off by using constants.php for example. (So basic users would not even be able to download plugins.) Just as a suggestion. I would love to see that in a future version. 🙂

Happy new year fellas!

Yes i also think everything important has already been said. And this issue aside i still think ips is the best platform available. May i make a suggestion on closing? Why not simply allow downloads parallel to the "idiot install"? This way there would be no tradeoff but even a gain.

There is no good free alternative anymore these days. Back in the days there have been lots of free alternatives which some of them have been pretty good. Mybb 1.6 was the pinnacle. Great free forum software with lots of great plugins, most of them free too. Yeah but it has been going down hill ever since 1.8. 2.0 got cancelled & 1.9 is due for years now. They never added mobile support / responsive templates in 1.8 so out of the box its still not responsive in 2020. I suspect they have been sabotaged or bought out by some bigger company. Simply because 1.6 was so good that there basically was no need to spend money on a paid solution. So it was dangerous for companys like jelsoft, woltlab or invision power services. phpBB is and ever has been a joke. It works but that's about it. Everything else is even worse. But man was mybb 1.6 great. One great thing still true even for 1.8 is that its not bloated with a lot of crap like xenforo or ips is these days. No developer tools bigger than a whole forum package back in the days and stuff like that. Its pretty simple to develop own plugins and it works like a champ. Same is true for vbulletin 3 for example.

At the end of the day we live in a capitalist society. So customers and there money decide which companys and products survive. That being said xenforo already has the by far biggest market share. I suspect it will go up even more to the disadvantage of the invision power services company, soon. Given your new business practises i would actually like to see that happen.
