The only way to do this is not through email? if so, how I do it when we have no access to our incoming email ?

I don't see commerce in my cloud setup. Are there any integrations with SendGrid, amazon etc. to allow cloud hosted customers setup up incoming emails? If so, is there some sort of guide on this?

What about receiving? How do we on a cloud platform receive emails sent to our emial@domain.com For that to work, we will need an ability to create the email address on the cloud platform, configure our clients based on the smtp setting etc.

Thank you very much everyone. The migration was completed and everything works normally. One question I have is how we do we create an email account for sending/receiving emails? Where the smpt settings can be found so we configure our email clients for receiving/sending emails.

Thank you. It appears that the Creator Pro is sufficient for our use. When I run [root@server ~]# du -h /home/enotal1/public_html/uploads I can see that the overall size of the uploads folder is 659M so the creator pro's media storage should work. Any way to wave or discount the $250 migration fee? Or at least give us some credit for the active/paid license unused term we currently have?

IPB cloud hosting still remains largely a mystery to me. Here are some of the things I still don't understand clearly. 1. a way to determine what media storage I will need. I currently have a invision installed on a dedicated server, which folder/db table I check to find out ? 2. If I pick a plan and it turns out it is not sufficient, can I switch? 3. I currently have elastic search installed on the server. I understand that in a cloud setup I will need to use the software's own search? if so, how that will impact search features and performance? 4. we have social sign in enabled on the forum, many accounts use google, fb to sign in into the forum. Can we continue to use social sign-in after switching to cloud hosting with you? Thank you. Also, I really think you should come up with a tool that can give clients on a dedicated environment some idea what would be the best cloud hosting plan for them, show some features comparison etc.

Thank you.

@Marc Stridgen Was this included in today's upgrade?

Marc, any updates on this issue? I saw a maintenance release today, but I don't think this was included in the release.

Thank you very much Nathan and Marc.

Thank you Marc. I am not sure I understood this. Can you please explain what exact setting you are referring here? I do have 3 word filters set up to detect urls and flag them for manual review. But all 3 rules are set up to apply to account with less than 10 posts. The accounts being flagged have thousands of posts. Here is one of these word filters

Thank you Randy. I would really appreciate if someone can help me understand what changed with the last upgrade to trigger such system behavior and how to fix it. This never happened before the last upgrade. Thank you.

Here is an example

Hello. After upgrading to 4.7 legitimate content from long time members with thousands of posts is sometimes flagged for mod approval. This has never happened before the last upgrade. The posts in question might include picture upload or an external hyperlink. How can I find out what setting is causing this and fix it? Thank you.

As I explained previously, those of us in a dedicated hosting environment can't really ask our host to tell us our media usage. Such vague vocabulary and confusion direction were exactly why I decided to post. My host has nothing to do with that nor me or them know your definition of 'media' which is not clearly defined in the pricing or documentation. So that right there is a also good example of overlooking thing in conversations with the clients as well as failing to reply, receive emails etc.

It was more a feedback on my experience with the cloud rather than a question.

Recently the plans changed? Now after the creator pro $149/ month it jumps to business plan $549/ month. That is a huge jump. It appears to me that Invision is not serious about it's cloud hosting or maybe does not believe in it. A lot of language for the plans are almost religiously mysterious like media. It took me several emails to gain some vague description of what that is, how we measure our current 'media' usage and even now I am not sure the explanation I was given is accurate. Another one is page views and so on. No way to move any real data into the trial invironment. Only they can do it and you have to pay them a fee or pay for the whole year for it to be waived. When you ask a question here, they open an email thread for migration support where customer replies are sometimes overlooked and not replied. The entire point of the dialogue is basically you got to pay us to move the data or pay upfront the whole year. It is kind of hard to pay for awhile year for something we can't try in a real invironment, data.

Hello. I signed up for cloud hosting trial with invision. But how do we move data from an invision self-hosted forum to a the trial cloud setup? I don't see any conversion/migration tool included in the trial setup. Also what would be the ideal approach of backing up self-hosted invison community for restoration on the cloud hosted invision? Thanks

Native niometric login support would be great.

Thank you very much.

Thank you. The question was about possible ways to control that on my end as to how often that happens and who sees that. Also, if that can't be done is there a way for the end user to permanently dismiss it?

Sure, I see the same thing happening here at invisioncommunity.com, please see the screenshot attached.

Thank you. can we at least turn it off and on?

Are there any settings controlling how often and who sees the prompt about installing the mobiles app? Thanks.

Thank you very much. It worked.
