The new portal looks good.. but I did notice that the renewal price has gone up by $100 dollars. Is there a reason for this? I have tried to look around for a topic about it, but cannot find one anywhere on the site or forums about the increased price to $310 a year. That seems a little too steap now..

Happy Hump Day, fam. Today's a big day (I know I always say that every Hump Day but... )
*Says in a whisper* We've officially soft launched 4.6 🤫 🎉 
It's a soft launch because, well, you know how things can go 🔥. However, we're pretty darn satisfied with this rollout. Possibly The best ever. A more formal announcement will arrive in the near future.   
Right now, 4.6 is available for those on Cloud or those who've tested out our several Beta releases.
In case there's a glitch in the matrix, please make a backup of your community before upgrading. 
If you need a refresher, @Matt laid out what is new in 4.6 in our latest blog post.
Speaking of, I asked our Director of Development to share his thoughts on this release: 

🥲 In regards to 4.6, Matt said Invision Community "continues to build on its stable community platform by adding multiple new features."
Some of these include "anonymous posting; ideal for mental and physical health communities that can now allow their members to post questions anonymously, no-code integration with 3,000 other apps with Zapier, better mobile support, improved solved topic functionality and the brand new achievements system designed to nudge and reward good behavior and content."

"This release elevates your community experience with Invision Community significantly through multiple touch points."
We hope you guys enjoy 4.6 as much as we do!
Bringing this plane home... Since it's tradition, here are a list of updates since Beta 3 was released last week:
- Fixed an issue where the expiration date for a Member Subscription would not update when editing the subscription purchase.
- Fixed an issue where PayPal Billing Agreements / Subscriptions may not charge the correct value for sales tax.
- Improved performance when generating comment widgets on large sites.
- Fixed an issue where adding a theme setting to a parent theme didn't update children themes with the new setting
- Fixed an issue where the SQL Toolbox couldn't display query results
- Fixed an issue where the register button in the checkout process didn't open in a new tab if redirect registration is enabled.
- Fixed an issue where the full upgrader would show an empty error box.
- Fixed an issue where moving members after searching on a freeform custom field could return incorrect results.
 - Fixed an issue where online/recently browsing counts can be incorrect.
Thoughts on the official launch of 4.6?! Drop us a line in the comments. We'd love to hear from you!

Friday? Booo. Saturday? Blahhhh. Sunday? Who needs it! 
Welcome back to another fine edition of Hump Day, the best day, and today's is a doozy. 
We've officially launched 4.6 Beta 3! 🎉 
It's available for download or per request if you're on Cloud.
We're pretty confident things will be stable, but don't take our word for it; please make backups before updating. 
The official release will make its red carpet debut in the very near future.
What's changed from Beta 2 to Beta 3? @Matt passed along these changes (see below). It's worth mentioning these updates are our new team members, @Christopher Pei and @Marshall Slemp, first bug fixes. 👏 
Fixed an issue where Weekly and Monthly Email Stats were not displayed correctly Fixed an issue where CSV downloads were limited to 25 rows. Fixed an issue where editing a Link for an Image would not save. Fixed an issue where images added to a Custom Email were not showing up in the email being sent to the customer after a purchase. Fixed some spacing issues with member lists in various blocks. Fixed an issue where adding a theme setting to a parent theme didn’t update children themes with the new setting. Fixed an issue where the database checker may show un-needed database changes. Fixed an issue where an invalid “oembed” widget plugin type would appear when creating a block. Fixed deleting a widget not using JSON_PRETTY_PRINT for the widgets.json file. Fixed an issue where Achievements rebuilding would not finish Fixed an issue where Achievements badges would show in the hovercard during a rebuild. Fixed an issue where changing an authors name from anonymous would not reset the “is_anon” flag Fixed an issue where some ajax content was indexable by search engines Fixed an issue where badge counts could be wrong  

I know, that's a lot of awesomeness to absorb.
What are your thoughts? Have you been using any of the Beta releases thus far? We'd love to hear from you in the comments!

Plus 1, put back the information for what the user is viewing 

Hi,
In the IPS 4.6 update user's hovercard information what user do was removed.
I propose to restore this option.

Currently it looks like this:

The word "Online now" appears all the time for 15 minutes after the last user action.
In my opinion this is confusing and should be changed.
Here is my suggestion:

or

What do you think about it?
In my opinion, this last suggestion makes the most sense.

I am very interested in this feature. Good idea Pjo!

Hello
I am looking for a plugin like https://invisioncommunity.com/files/file/6877-mail-bouncer-automated-bounce-management/ but which works with normal SMTP (not Amazon etc.).
 
Often, users register an account on the forum through, for example, Discord / Facebook and if they have an inactive email address (on Discord/FB account), the email address is also incorrect on the forum (e.g. deleted email). As a result, my emails are rejected. What are you doing with it?
 

Ever since the update I'm unable to resync members, or go to the invite link. I can login with discord however.

And the bot account has all the roles needed and is up top.

Additionally this happens after "collecting data"

Hello
Sorry if I wrote this in the wrong section.
I have been managing the IPS forum for several years. I'm looking for a good email hosting (if it is important, I have almost 40,000 users, so I send a lot of messages per day).
It is important that this offers to hide my web server's IP (in the header "received from") when sending messages via SMTP (the domain is managed by CloudFlare and the ip address is hidden).

That just means you'll have a dedicated IP address for outbound mail, not that your server's sending IP will be revealed.
We use the regular version with no issues. Make sure you setup SPF & DKIM.

There's none unpaid solution for this matter. I have tested many providers, and all of their service shows the IP address of your server. 
 
I want to add some of them don't accept some email providers such as Hotmail.  

What do you mean by several mailboxes?
A few folks here use Amazon AWS e-mail services via SMTP.

You should use a separate service for that.
Then you can use Amazon SES for sending the emails, which should be the cheapest solution you can get.

I use Amazon SES on all my sites, cheapest. I use it with:
and
 

Do you mean to send or to receive emails?
You can use Amazon SES to send emails for any email address you own (you just have to configure your email client with Amazon SES SMTP server data).  If you also want to receive email in a "normal" email client, you will need more than Amazon SES.  You can use Amazon WorkMail, for example to receive emails (but there are cheaper options for receiving emails).

I have two suggestions.
1. Sorting defined messages on the list
2. Create a category (+ can add permissions for a given category, but not necessarily). The categories will be "dropdowns".

Go to file view and click in the Additional Information tab. You’ll see the support topic link there.

I’ll check versions later and will upload new version if required. 

New version uploaded. Follow the file to get notified when it gets available.

Is there really so much to fix? there are a couple of minor bugs that interfere with the work.
In the meantime, I can't use the purchase for 2 months, it's sad.
  
cool, only no one answers in PM 😄

It seems that strategem member sync extension is causing an infinite loop;)
 
public function onDelete($member) { $m = Member::load($member->member_id); .. $m->delete(); }  

In that template you should to change the code in 2 places

How can I apply group formatting for user at all places? Highlighted Rex box on username doesn't show correct formatting. Version 4.4.1
