Can you provide us with more info please.

I'll get back to you on this, thank for the offer. Interesting indeed.

As an aside? What would happen if we switched to Invision cloud ?

Thanks gentlemen, but the above is way over my head..I wish we could upgrade from the 15 versions behind....but we keep getting the error about php...Thanks anyway, much appreciated. I'll put it to InMotion to fix.

Guys, I did as you said . I moved to PHP 8.0 and our site / forum would not load. Had to revert back to older version . InMotion said " just apply PHP 8.0" I've messaged them to ask for help. Thank you. If it's any help for you to see our issues here is what I have

Gents , thanks very much for your help, much appreciated. Will post how I get on.

Ahhh I will go and look, thank you.

I take it that is my C Panel....how would I know if there are plug ins...sorry for being a bit vague

In all honesty, I do not know. The person who done the site is no longer with us. I'm a bit in the dark here. Looking at c panel for info. If it helps we are a forum only we do not have a"website" as such

May I ask how I would find if I use IPS platform ? I'm looking through my C panel as I write..Thanks

I believe our hosts allow us to move up to php 8.0 in our Cpanel ..What if it does not work for us, can we revert back to a lower php until the issue is resolved. I have contacted InMotion, but they are a bit slow to respond. Thanks for your input, appreciated indeed.

We were told that we cannot do this...was that person talking nonsense? thanks

Version 4.7.3 When we try to upgrade we get this message .............. 1C287/2 You are running PHP version 7.4.33. You need PHP 8.0.0 or above. You should contact your hosting provider or system administrator to ask for an upgrade.

Thank you for the quick response, silly question, where will I find my version ?

We are getting this message . BUT we have also been told that we CANNOT upgrade to higher PHP as it would damage our forum site, told this by our hosts https://www.inmotionhosting.com/. Anyone else having this issue, we are scared to move up to php 8.0 in case we lose our forum, any help would be appreciated.

Random , could be a dozen a day or none AND NO, NO MEMBERS would "likely" add it to their signature, why would they? It looks more like an issue from Invision Where would it come from though? Our forum / site is supposed to be secure.......any ideas would be helpful. Unfortunately the Invision support is not too hot.

This randomly appears beneath member posts like a message, replacing member signature.....

WHY are we getting this flag on our forum without our permission. Along with the words fight war......Not everyone wants involved with this political nonsense

Thanks for help, site back up and running Appreciated

I gave them my own log in details..thanks for your help, let you know how it goes. I did not put in the URL though ??? Simply because when i click on admin portal nothing happens, hope they get in with what i have sent

Got a message asking to give permissions... ...do I give a new log in name so they can access ..How can we do this if we cannot access or admin panel ? or do I give them my own log in details ? <image removed for security>

we can log onto forum but cannot post either.......
