Also I'm seeing this in my system log: 

Since yesterday, when I click "Submit Reply" I have to wait over 5 seconds for a post to be submitted instead of the usual 1 second. 

Yes, I understand. I was just venting here (sorry) to see if I'm the only one with this issue or if everyone goes through this app review process. 

I just received a new email from them saying that they were able to access the platform (same email as before). These seem like a bunch of semi-automated emails Let's hope this was just a glitch in their systems.

The issue is they are banned from the site as mentioned. The only way in which to resolve that is to know what IP and email they are trying to use when registering. Without that, its impossible to track them down. Other users would not be having that issue, as they are not logging in using that same IP and email. 

Unfortunately this is another case whereby facebook make it harder and harder to integrate with them

No I mean I was able to give them a test user that is linked to a Facebook account and they emailed me to say "We were able to access the platform with the information you provided." 

Then this morning I get a new email that my app is under review and I need to give them FB credentials again (even though I just did).

Glad to hear you managed to get that issue resolved. 

Well not really... in the end they seem to be at it again. I just received a new email that my FB login app is under review (again) and that I need to provide them with login credentials. 

This all feels very Kafkaesque. Is everyone who's using FB login going through that?  

Thanks again. In the end, I created a test user on the Invision Community platform, linked it to a Facebook account, and gave them instructions to log in to the Invision Community platform with that test user. They were able to log in and seem to be happy with what they've seen so far. 

Thank you Marc. 

I haven't set any banned filter. Is there a way to check what spam service they were caught up in or why? 

How can I whitelist them? Edit: found it under "Spam Defense Whitelist". 

Facebook (a.k.a. Meta) reached out to alert me that an action was required for them to continue letting me using the app I created in order to allow for Facebook login on my Invision Community. 

I detailed the purpose of the app (to offer the Facebook login to my community forum). 

They replied with:

While reviewing we were not able to login into the website using facebook as it is leading error " Not permitted to register a user account with this site" Hence we request you to fix this issue and let us know so that we will review the app accordingly.

I have 3 days to comply or they're canceling my app. 

What should I do? 

I was told this issue is fixed in the next update. Thanks team! 😀

Thank you!

Here's what he's seeing when trying to access his moderator CP. If I disable the Courses app then he can access the moderator CP as expected. 

Thanks!

Just wanted to say that this bug is still here: 

I will!

Do you perhaps have multiple pages of PMs there and potentially have something buried?

Good question. I have many pages of PMs. I just marked all read, I'll see if that resolves this issue. 

This issue seems to be tied to the banner that says I have 25 new messages (even though I really have only one new message).

This is not to say they wont force onto the new one once they remove GA3 however. 

Yes indeed it looks like it would make sense. 

I've been wondering about the impact of Google Analytics on page speed lately. I know there are some alternatives to Google Analytics (such as abralytics) that improve page speed. However I can't use those as my ad manager requires Google Analytics. 

I'm still wondering if there's a difference between the UA and the GA4 scripts (I intend to test this soon and post my results here), and if data stream enhanced measurement settings (scrolls, outbound clicks, site search etc...) affect page speed (not sure how to test that). 

I have:

• 1Password – Password Manager 2.12.0
• Google Docs Offline 1.62.0

According to my Ad Manager, I should keep the UA code and I'm all set. 

I may still run some performance tests to see if one code is faster than the other. If I find out anything I'll post it here.

Please could you let me know who you are logged in as, so I can take a look?

Did you get a chance to have a look? This is still happening on a regular basis. 

Ok thank you @Randy Calvert, I will ask there.

Google Analytics Universal Analytics (UA) will soon be going away and you will need to convert to their GA4 scripts. Can read more from Google: https://support.google.com/analytics/answer/11583528?hl=en

Oh yes I'm well aware, thanks. The UA property will stop processing data on July 1, 2023. However the UA script I'm using still works fine in creating a GA4 data stream, which is all the GA4 property requires to process data. 

Maybe I'm overthinking this and it doesn't matter in the end. 

I'm still using the old one, it's working as expected (I suppose because inside Google Analytics I've linked it to my GA4 property) but I'm wondering if I need to change it or not, or if one presents advantages over the other. I suppose that just to be up to date I may change it to the new one, I'm just used to "if it ain't broken, don't fix it...".

Thanks! 🙂 

A year or two ago I've set up my GA4 property in Google Analytics and it did not require changing my code snippet, so my website is still using the old UA code snippet for the GA4 data flow (which works fine - I see in GA4 that my data collection is active). 

However I wonder if I should change the old snippet currently used on my site: 

<!-- Global site tag (gtag.js) - Google Analytics -->
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=UA-XXXXXXXX-1"></script>
<script>
window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || [];
function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);}
gtag('js', new Date());
gtag('config', 'UA-XXXXXXXX-1');
</script>

And instead use the new one: 

<!-- Google tag (gtag.js) --> 
<script async src="https://www.googletagmanager.com/gtag/js?id=G-XXXXXXXX"></script> 
<script> window.dataLayer = window.dataLayer || []; function gtag(){dataLayer.push(arguments);} gtag('js', new Date()); gtag('config', 'G-XXXXXXXX'); </script>

Does that make a difference?
