@Lindy It's completely understood that you guys have been working so hard to get things in prefect way, and we the customers thank and appreciate you for that. We have seen IPS wanted to protect more the third-party developers which completely very lovely, and we the customers are more than happy to support them more by buying their products.

My question is all what we see that IPS and the developer "Terms and Conditions", so what's left for customers to be protected and feel safe. The answer is nothing. Haven't IPS seen how many developers have left the Market Place after just a few months of releasing their products? What about some applications/themes are overpriced even some require renewals more expansive than the renewal of an IPS license itself. Haven't IPS seen how many customers have felt ripped off because of the developer has left, and they have just purchased that theme or application? 

Repeating again we do love to support all developers especially whom stick around, but all what we need is to feel safe whenever we buy their products. We need a consumer protection form overpricing and developers who release their products then leave in just a few months.

Ok. Which version? 4.4? 4.5?

Both. I just tested on the stable version 4.5 same message. 

Look what I have done. 

On any forum remove the permissions for any group you want to test on. Then go to "Custom No Permission Error" Type down whatever you want as an error message. Create a topic then copy the topic link to see what error message you will see.

Without the application members have to see the custom error message, yet whenever you activate this application it effects that custom error message which it should not because application error message it should appear to the banned members from that topic only. 

@Adriano Faria Why your application effect other forums that members from group B has no access to a specific forum, yet that group they are not banned they just has no permission to see or read the forums.

Sorry, there is a problem

Can this be fixed ?

Hi,

that's possible with the forum application:)

When creating or editing a forum in the ACP, you have following setting under the "Forum Settings" tab, which controls this

 

This option already available in 4.4.10 and on 4.5 Beta release note. 

• Added ability for Forums created within Clubs to be set so that users can only see the topics they posted (e.g. for a support forum).

 Where I can see this option ?

Good idea. Or even a notification to say the member has changed/been promoted to another group.

Yeah. I like this because notification are more simple. 

@Kitty Blu

For the sending a private message whenever someone joins the forum is easier than having a rule by using this free applicate, and for sending the member about his group changed you will need to ask a 3d party developer to create such application for that.

IPS 4.5.0 Beta 👍

This theme is updated for latest IPS 4.5. Beta version and can be downloaded for testing 

On your demo forums the light version of this theme is broken.

Ahh thank you. That's smart. I just enabled this. It doesn't entirely solve the problem, but is a great start. 

I also blocked India from having access to my website for now. 

No problem mate.

This is happening to me too 😩 

Tons of new "members" from India just posting spam. They're using FB and Google to login. Not sure what to do. 

I have a solution for you. 

Go to New Members group sittings, and from Content go down to Moderation. Next enable option "Require approval before content shows?", and then use "Remove content moderation" put the number you are seeing fits to make sure this member he doesn't post any spamming topics or replies. I myself use it for only the first post I put just "1", and like this if the new member is a spammer, you can flag him as spammer or ban him. 

@Adriano Faria whenever you visit Tracking Members logs Follow Member and Message buttons showing under each others while in the normal profile they are next to each other.

I hope you will fix this next release, and also it will be nice if you add Banned from forums button for whoever has the application.

It’s very slow after upgrade to 4.5 on this site. Sometimes it shows the loading image for 5 seconds or so.

How to did you get your hands on 4.5 and in the client area it's not released yet?

@Claude I just noticed that the second theme 4.2 in the ACP default theme. 

Go to the default theme press on edit, and then find under General 

Default AdminCP Theme? 

Then turn it on. Next save and reload. I believe this will fix your issue.

I thought about Afrodude, but it scares me a little! 🙂

It wouldn't do any harm. Go to the ACP from General Configuration put your website on OFFLINE mode, and then start uploading then it will be replacing the old files. After that upgrade. I have a good feeling it will fix the issue.

Just now, Claude said:

Okay, I hasten to do it. Thank you Afrodude.

You can do one thing that might fix it. Download and upload last version of IPS. Then go to yoursite.com/admin/upgrade

This wouldn't hurt to try it might fix the issue.

Thanks Morrigan,

This is what I have done several times, without success.

Submit a ticket to the support team. 

It takes on my site a second to load.

It would be great to use the "Expand" feature with blocks of code in the same way as with quotes.

Good idea. Also, what makes this future even better is having another button after "Expand" the quote/code named "Hide" to shrink it back.

Yeah, that was a problem! Anyway, i changed system to CentOS, everything works perfect now!

 

I have one more question, what exactly do i need to do to enable this cURL? PHP version is 7.4 but it still saying this: You do not have the cURL PHP extension loaded or it is running a version less than 7.36. Enabling the cURL module provides a more efficient and reliable library for making connections from your website to other websites.

 

I can't find any theme on forum for this.

Which Centos version you are using ?

@Marko Krunic since you've just migrated to a new server, and as @Daniel F said above your problem is with SQL connection. You must setup the same username and password form the SQL connection you were using on old server, and it must have permission to the same database name you are using. 

You can get those information from conf_global.php

$INFO = array (
  'sql_host' => 'localhost',
  'sql_database' => 'databasename',
  'sql_user' => 'username',
  'sql_pass' => 'password',

Sorry, I didn’t say I would add it or would do it in this version. Keep making suggestions. I’ll add them if I think it adds some value to the resource.

Regarding your request, this is the ERROR CODE and it is used for support to identify where exactly the error happened, which consists the app + the place it happened (controller) + / specific place in the code, so obviously it can’t be customizable. That will not change.

You can change the message itself in your ACP: “You do not have permission to view this forum”.

It's completely fine to have that error message, but is it possible to add more information under that error?
