Matt

I'm upgrading your site now. aaaaand done.

It doesn't look like the patch applied. I can take a look shortly. Another patch is on its way. It's officially Double Patch Day® Another patch is on its way to fully and completely resolve (until next time) the various Downloads screenshot issues.

Invision Community 5.0.2 Patch 1 released which fixes: Wallpaper images not showing in Chrome and Firefox (CSS issue) The core issue removing Downloads file thumbnails when Topic Sync is on The issue with the downloads file thumbnails is complex and took a while to track down. You may notice thumbnail loss after applying the patch on existing Downloads Files, and this is because the bug puts the primary thumbnail path and filename into the core_attachments table, instead of creating a new thumbnail. This means when you edit a file, or create a new version, the topic sync function runs which deletes the attachment, and the thumbnail before recreating a new image but the old thumbnail path and filename is still in downloads_files_records which manifests as a missing image. I am going to write an upgrade step for 5.0.3, but also a one-off script today to correct the data in core_attachments which should fully resolve the issue.

That's correct. We do not host the media for Invision Community Classic customers.

We're pleased to announce that CSAM scanning is now available at no extra cost. What is CSAM scanning?CSAM stands for Child Sexual Abuse Material. The media served by your community will be scanned to identify any matches in a central CSAM database. These lists are provided by leading child safety advocacy groups, such as the National Center for Missing and Exploited Children (NCMEC). CSAM scanning is now recommended to increase compliance in many areas, and you can rest assured that Invision Community will now block any harmful media from being shown in your community. Moderating large communities can be challenging when your members are able to upload photos, and this scanning tool offers great peace of mind. What about privacy?Rest assured that privacy is paramount to Invision Community. CSAM scanning is not an AI tool, and neither does it mean media on your site is being shared with third parties for review. Each photo or video is assigned a digital fingerprint, which is checked against a known database. If there is a match, the photo is blocked from being viewed. What happens if there is a match?If we detect a match for CSAM, the media is blocked from being shown. We will then remove the offending media and, where possible, block the person who uploaded the material. This tool is designed to help you, as an Invision Community owner, moderate your community and protect you from unwittingly sharing CSAM. We hope you never have a member upload such material, but it's reassuring to know that your site will not be complicit in its sharing. By identifying and blocking bad actors' access across our network, we can pre-emptively protect you, too. Can I opt out?No, there is no way to opt out. This scanning service offers great peace of mind, protects you from harmful material being shared, helps compliance and prevents bad actors from accessing other communities. Note: this service is not available for Invision Community Classic.

Yeah, this only occurs when you sync downloads to a forum. I'm testing a fix, and if successful it'll be in a patch tomorrow morning.

Invision Community 5.0.2 is now available via your Admin Control PanelThis release focuses on bugs reported since the release of 5.0.1 and features many UI improvements. You can see the full list of fixes in our release notes section. This release also resolves several issues with Downloads screenshots and thumbnails. What's next?This week we'll continue to triage and manage incoming bug reports and we expect to have another maintenance release out next week to ensure that bug fixes are resolved as quickly as possible. We then expect 5.0.4 to follow within two to three weeks as we work in some larger fixes that will require more testing. If we see anything more pressing, we'll release a patch which can be applied via your Admin Control Panel. As always, thank you for your testing and reports. It really does help us!

This looks like a bug on our end. I'll move it to our internal tracker.

Hi Ian! I hope you're well. You are right here, but if someone has access to your email account, the security of your forum account is probably low down on your list. 😂

A patch is on its way to Cloud-Land for the following: #3681: Fix rebuild achievements task for the AnswerMarkedBest Extension #3677: Fixes an issue where “Reward <user>” was missing on the post menu #3683: Fix issue where user can downgrade expired subscription at no cost

Thank you! 🙏

We're still discussing this. To do what you need means effectively bypassing all iframe security and while it can be an option, it's a significant risk so we want to be sure we're thoughtful about it.

We're working on it, it should be back up shortly.

We're looking into this.

Ah ok, that's just a duplicate query that was in the patch, and also in the full release. You can happily ignore it. 😁 It looks like something is blocking outgoing connections to our update server. You can download the zip and upgrade manually if it persists.

Invision Community 5.0.1 is now available via your Admin Control PanelThis release focuses on bugs reported since the release of 5.0.0 and features many editor and UI improvements.

Thanks Day! We have a great team and we have daily mini-meetings to assess what's coming in, what's critical and what's in the POTD (patch of the day 🤣)

It's been a very eventful week here at Invision Community, with the launch of Invision Community 5 and I wanted to take a minute to give an update on what has happened and what we've learned this week. Fixes and PatchesDespite being a brand-new platform, Invision Community 5 has had a very low number of critical issues, primarily thanks to months of careful testing and preparation before this release. We have made two patches this week that fix the following issues: An issue where some Cloud sites would block .svg and webp images when uploaded. An issue where updating the approval queue during the v4 to v5 upgrade could fail. An issue where the Policy Page would show an error when Send Grid is enabled. An issue where some template hook locations were missing. An issue where PayPal attempts to use a full name even when it's not required. We've been reading all your posts about your experiences upgrading to Invision Community 5, and there is one area where we think we can improve. Pages UpgradesRight now, once the v4 to v5 upgrade has completed, your Page Databases retain their custom templates. However, because the CSS framework has changed, those pages look broken. We plan to rename all v4 Pages templates containers and reset the defaults on all the databases very soon (likely 5.0.2) so your pages do not look broken after the upgrade. You can then choose from one of the new default views or move your customisations back into the default templates. We will also add this information to the Invision Community 4 "Prepare for v5" page in the Admin CP. In the meantime, reverting custom Pages Templates will solve broken views. Next ReleaseWe want to continue releasing regular releases as we fix issues. Invision Community 5.0.1 is expected to be available early next week. Before I go, I just wanted to mention that I've heard some customers looking forward to upgrading this weekend. Just keep in mind that support is limited over the weekend, and we always recommend taking at least a database backup before you run the upgrader. Thanks again for all your help this week!

Yes, I will look in the next 15 minutes.

What happened to your Pages? They should be upgraded ok even if they look a little odd if you have custom templates.

That's great to hear, and I need at least a day off before starting v6. 😅
