Error after updating to IPS 4.7.19
Hi @Milly Mikkelsen, Go to your AdminCP → System → Support → Get Support and see if anything is showing up there. I would suggest clicking Clear System Caches as well just in case. I would disable your plugins/modifications and see if the error still exists and only enable each plugin/modification one at a time to see if you can find exactly which one may be causing the issue.

Configuration or server error has occurred upgrading to Beta 12
My community and the AdminCP are accessible after upgrading, but I did receive this error straight after the upgrade process finished for some reason. From the System Logs: IPS\File\Exception: CANNOT_MAKE_DIR (6) #0 /home/gary/japanesespitz/system/File/FileSystem.php(331): IPS\File\FileSystem->getFolder() #1 /home/gary/japanesespitz/system/File/File.php(391): IPS\File\FileSystem->save() #2 /home/gary/japanesespitz/system/Output/Javascript/Javascript.php(1082): IPS\File::create() #3 /home/gary/japanesespitz/system/Output/Javascript/Javascript.php(808): IPS\Output\Javascript::_writeForFileSystem() #4 /home/gary/japanesespitz/system/Output/Javascript/Javascript.php(779): IPS\Output\Javascript::writeLanguage() #5 /home/gary/japanesespitz/system/Dispatcher/Standard.php(103): IPS\Output\Javascript::getLanguageUrl() #6 /home/gary/japanesespitz/system/Dispatcher/Admin.php(128): IPS\Dispatcher\Standard::baseJs() #7 /home/gary/japanesespitz/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(126): IPS\Dispatcher\Admin->init() #8 /home/gary/japanesespitz/admin/index.php(15): IPS\Dispatcher::i() #9 {main} Backtrace: #0 /home/gary/japanesespitz/init.php(827): IPS\Log::log() #1 [internal function]: IPS\IPS::exceptionHandler() #2 {main}

Beta 12 is now available.
I stumbled upon one error after clicking the return to AdminCP button once the upgrade finished. I have access to my community and AdminCP for the record, so I don’t know what went wrong. Still loving version 5!

Spam is getting bad
I do exactly what @Mike G. has done on my community, and it seems to work well too. Taking advantage of all features Invision Community offer will mitigate spam as much as possible, but in our day in age, it is impossible to eradicate it altogether. The Publisher plan of hCaptcha is completely free up to one million requests per month; I have been using it since setting it up on my community quite a few months ago. It doesn’t give you their full suite of features, but something is better than nothing. Real-time analytics, for instance, might be interesting and something nice to have but isn’t the be-all or end-all.

Fix for Unread/Mark Read
Hi @dmaidon1, There are Unread Content links both at the top and bottom of the page. Mark all content as read is found after clicking your username, but I think this works well as it prevents someone from clicking it accidentally. I don’t want to come across as condescending of course, but can’t you just hit Home or End on your keyboard when on your PC or clicking the top of your browser on a phone to prevent scrolling so much?

Default forums view? Moves a lot below the fold and creates long scroll...
Glad you got it sorted. Always happy to help. 😉

Default forums view? Moves a lot below the fold and creates long scroll...
To make a change for your whole site, that is exactly where to change it. If you want your members to have the option of changing it themselves, then you would have to enable this function for the member group/s. AdminCP → Members → Groups → edit the relevant groups by clicking the pencil icon → Group Settings → Permissions → enable Can change layouts They will then be able to edit the layout of your site’s forum index view by clicking their Display Name → click the + sign next to Settings Area → Account Settings → Content Preferences → enable Change layout views and pick the preferred Forum Index View.

Hi @Richard Arch, Click your display name → Theme Editor → Page Layouts → Forum Index and select your preferred layout. The list should contain Table, Grid, Fluid and Feed.

I didn’t even click the link! My bad. 😅

In case some users still cannot find it, you can change the forum index view by clicking your Display Name → click the + sign next to Settings Area → Account Settings → Content Preferences → enable Change layout views and pick your preferred Forum Index View.

SendGrid Integration Missing in v4.7.20 Beta 3 - Critical
I’m not sure why SendGrid was removed from your integrations; it shows up on my community using version 5 Beta 11.1. There are two settings for SendGrid in your AdminCP. System → Site Features → Integrations → SendGrid → Enable (which I know you’ve done from your screenshot) System → Settings → Email Settings → Mail delivery method (confirm SendGrid has been selected)

Upgrade to v5 beta
No problem at all, and best of luck! Version 5 has been perfect on my production environment since Beta 1. Not to say I didn’t run into any issues, but they were all ironed out by the team promptly.

Self-managed Server MySQL event scheduler waiting on empty queue since server restarted 10 days ago
I have MariaDB 10.6.19 on my Classic instance of Invision Community and haven’t noticed any issues with speed or performance. My community does not have high traffic or large amounts of data yet so that may be the biggest difference here. May I ask how large and/or active your community is?

Upgrade to v5 beta
Hi @Jan Reidar Storelvmo, You would simply download the version 5 package from your Client Area and follow the manual upgrade steps on the help guide below. Install and Upgrade - Classic Installation / Server Management

One member reporting having to sign in again every time they re-open their browser?
I do get this from time to time when logged in on my computer and attempt to log in on my phone, for example. Logging in is successful, but any page I visit afterwards is as if I am logged out. I haven’t investigated the issue, but when I log out of my computer, wait a few minutes and log back in on my phone, all is well. I haven’t had the issue of logging in every time I open my browser though.

Welcome to Invision Community 5
For those looking at making a change to your page layout, click your username (assuming you’re an administrator of your community) → Theme Editor → Page Layouts → Forum Index → select your preferred theme between Table, Grid, Fluid and Feed. Feed is the theme currently selected for Invision Community. Table is what most people may be used to.

Badges when hovering on someone's display name
It is insignificant and doesn’t break anything, but badges when hovering on someone’s display name might need a look at. They display fine on profiles.

Absolute perfection. Well done, Invision Community! 🥳

Upgrade Path from 4.7.6 to 5.0.0
Hi @Madhouseau, Make sure you backup your database and current files and folders though just in case something goes pear-shaped.

Upgraded.

a member can post but can't 'like' any posts
You just have to reorder them. AdminCP -> Members -> Member Settings -> Reputation & Reactions -> Reactions -> Reorder the reactions by click and holding on the burger to the left of each image That should do it. 😉

You're welcome!

a member can post but can't 'like' any posts
Hi @Maureen Becker, AdminCP -> Members -> Member Settings -> Reputation & Reactions First check that reputation is enabled and have a look through the other settings to suit your community. If you search for 'reaction' in your AdminCP, you will find some other settings that might be useful too. Edit: Beat me to it, Jim! 😄

One small step for Invision Community, one giant leap for communities! I am really looking forward to Monday! Well done Matt and team! This is a massive milestone after the amount of time and work that has gone into version 5. 🥳 I have upgraded my community without an issue. Insert token Ace Ventura GIF.
