It's not available to users who aren't signed in. And I don't see recaptcha on it.

Is there a way to have a standard "Contact Us" form on the board, Preferably with Recaptcha, So that anyone can use it? (not just members, anyone) Thanks!

Hello, I am on the current version of the board. I am getting problems with spammers doing the quick registration, not validating their email and having the ability to post. Where do I set the board to REQUIRE the email validation before posting?? Thanks!

See above- where is the setting to disable the permission for a user to hide a thread that they originally created? Thanks

How can I add a link to my current TOS on my forum? This is the TOS that is part of the signup process. What is the link to that page? Thanks

Thanks for the quick reply. Where is this setting please?

I am getting multiple email bounce backs from my email server (I operate my own entire rack) which are spawning from my forum site. It looks like spammers are trying to leverage some function within the software to spawn messages out of the system. Please review the information below. I believe we are going to need a software patch to fix this. I would appreciate feedback or a patch to prevent this abuse. I am running the most current version of the forum software. here are what the email logs look like: [02/Oct/2021 21:13:28] Recv: Queue-ID: 615903b8-00001b51, Service: SMTP, From: <forums@zzzz.net>, To: <unlyawapsor0e@mail.com>, Size: 10191, Sender-Host: ws.zzzyx.local, User: forums@zzzz.net, Subject: Did you forget to submit your content?

Just to clarify, this migration wizard is built into an official Oracle/MySQL product, called MySQL workbench which is a windows application. I have never had a problem using that application to move many databases in the past. I will try the method above and report how it goes.

Hello all, I am trying to move one of my IPS FORUM sites to another MYSQL server. When I run the migration wizard in MYSQL WORKBENCH (latest version), I get the error below. Please note that I am on MYSQL 8.x (very current versions on both servers). MIGRATION WARNINGS, EXPAND TO VIEW core_message_posts Indicies msg_post ->Truncated key column length for column from 0 to 255 Obviously I am asking this because I don't want to have any data loss while migrating. I've migrated many MYSQL databases but have never seen this. Thoughts? Thanks!
