  1. Thank you Marc, I'm not sure what this means so I searched for "Cron" and found this in my admin panel:
  2. In my Admin panel under "Email Error Logs" it says "There are no results to display."
  3. Lately I've seen this happen where sometimes I'll type an answer, click "Submit Reply" and the "Submit Reply" button is dimmed to indicate I've clicked it, yet the post doesn't seem to be added (the text entry box stays open). If I refresh the page then I realize that the post had been added. When this happens, I can tell it's happening to others as well because they must click "Submit Reply" again, resulting in double or triple posts.
  4. So everyday I get about 3 dozens new accounts flagged for admin approval because the spam defense returned a score 4. How do you deal with these? So far I've been checking the emails in the stopforumspam.com database and the IPs in the cleantalk.org database and if one of those returns that the account is a spammer, is it better to ban or delete the account? I'm worried that with banning I'll quickly end up with 10s of thousands of banned accounts in my database. Meanwhile if I catch someone actually posting a spammy link I just "Flas as a spammer" on their profile. I'm not sure I fully grasp which one of those three choices I should pick? Ban Delete Flag as spammer
  5. https://www.logicprohelp.com/ It's an HTML page (not a builder page). I've added a Topic Feed block at the bottom. The issue is with the pop-up menu at the top right when you click your username, that looks bigger than on other pages. Maybe I'm using a CSS file that conflicts with IPS CSS?
  6. I created a homepage (HTML) in Pages, however some of the CSS doesn't look the same as when I'm in the forum. For example the pop-up menu when you click your username is much larger. Is there something to do so that the homepage has the same style as the other pages?
  7. Ok so there still is an issue with icons not loading properly, not sure why?
  8. The forums home page is displayed however anything I click leads to the old /forum/ folder still, which was a 404 (the /forum/ folder no longer exists) and I now redirected to a "maintenance.html" page. I'm not sure why it continues to direct to that /forum/ folder?
  9. Ok then I may end up just doing that in the end. Can I update the URL on the license myself? I can see a "Change Licensed URL" button in my Client Area > Manage this purchase.
  10. Wait, I suppose that if I do that then there is no need to change the FURL at all?
  11. Thank you Sonya, can you recommend a technical person who I could hire for such a service?
  12. site:https://www.example.com/forum/viewtopic = 21,300 site:https://www.example.com/forum/topic = 43,600
  13. Yes totally, thank you. I suppose I'm going to follow @opentype's advice and leave it the way it is.
  14. Thanks Marc, I appreciate it. Unfortunately my concern is that Google has re-indexed all the topics with the "/forum" folder for the past month, so if move them, they would no longer work.
  15. The thing is, I JUST did the migration from phpBB to Invision and mistakenly installed Invision inside the existing /forum/ folder, not realizing that that meant that from now on my entire website will live inside the /forum/ folder. 🙄
  16. I was hoping I could avoid having "forum" in the URL name that leads to parts of the website that are not the forum. I suppose that would also be better for SEO? For example for someone searching for "how to cook eggs tutorial" to have goodcook.com/tutorial/how-to-cook-eggs rather than having goodcook.com/forum/tutorial/how-to-cook-eggs
  17. When you say customizing the root slugs is not advised, is that also not advised to add a folder to the root slug? Invision is currently installed in a folder named /forum/ and Forums is the default app. A topic URL is currently domainname.com/forum/topic/how-to-cook-eggs/ Problem: Any page I create in Pages appears with /forum/ in the URL. For example if I create a page called "news" then the URL is domainname.com/forum/news Solution: Move the Invision install to the root of my domain name, Keep Forums as the default app, Add /forum to the FURL of the Forums pages so that the URLS don't change (domainname.com/forum/topic/how-to-cook-eggs remains the same). Pages now appear at the root (domainname.com/news). Would that work or is that considered customizing the root slugs for FURLs and not advisable? Would have have any impact on SEO or future Invision updates? Can you think of a better solution for my problem? Thanks!
