General Support / Expired Security Certificate
« on: August 19, 2020, 12:19:43 am »
So, I'm not sure what's going on, but my site, as well as this one, seems to be having issues. It's not letting people on the site due to "Security risks" and says something about the time zone not being configured properly and an expired security certificate? I was able to bypass it by just ignoring it and continuing, but others I know on my site don't have that option.

Edit: Added a screenshot of another Create-A-Forum link I clicked so I could show the screenshot. This is the message I'm getting from all the Create A Forum forums, including this one.

It seems that fixed it... Somehow the permissions got turned off for that function, which is not something we did.

So, rather than start a new topic, I thought it would be easier if I just mentioned in this one.

We're having an issue with the tagging in our forum. People are not able to tag anyone, and so far, it seems that only me (the administrator) can tag people effectively. I don't know what's going on, but so far, I've had a few people mention the tagging function isn't working for them. I don't know what's going on, they're doing it the same way I am, but it just doesn't work 90% of the time. I know they are spelling the names right as they are just copy and pasting them from the members list directly (which is what I do and it works fine). I don't know what's causing this issue, but it is getting quite annoying.

It's fine as is. Having the limit is fine, I just wanted to know what was causing the error, which confused me. I honestly thought at first something went wrong with my purchase of more storage space since it seemed to happen not long after. But if that's not the issue, then it should be fine.

A couple of them might have been. I noticed one or two that are over 10mb... Which is bizarre. They're simple animated gifs that shouldn't be that big... Anyway, the first few times I did it, those pics were not in the bunch. One I tried to upload was only one pic and it was 466 KB. I dunno... Maybe I tried to upload the wrong pic without realizing it.

Wow... I didn't even think about if that would work or not... I'm glad it did.

Yep. It's still happening.

I'm uploading from my desktop. I've tried both Google Chrome and Firefox as browsers. I haven't yet confirmed from people in the forum if it's happening to them or just me since none of them seem to be online currently (we're a pretty small group).

Sort of have parts of that with a combination of these areas.

In your profile you can click on "Mentions" which shows you anyone that used @ mentions with option to be emailed.

For board/topic notifications you can see them under Profile -> Notifications

And last for who quoted there is a link in the header area in the top left called "Show who quoted your posts"
Ah. I see it now. Though it would be nice to have a centralized notifications. I think it would just be overall easier to access all notifications from one area.

I tried just doing one picture (PNG) that was 466 KB. I tried doing multiple at first, but then started removing them once I realized what was happening.

No. My name is just as it appears here. The only thing I thought might be an issue was the spaces in my name, but so far that hasn't been an issue with anyone else. No special characters, and no special fonts or anything weird.

Suggestions / Centralized Notifications
« on: April 04, 2019, 11:40:01 pm »
Okay... So, the one thing I've noticed about these forums so far that I don't like is how the notifications are in three different sections. It makes it a pain to check at times. Plus, you can't change what you're getting notified of.

My suggestion is a centralized notifications button that pops up your notifications like many other sites have now. And having settings like being able to set your notifications. Say you want to notified when someone posts in a certain section, or they respond to a post you want to follow, but they don't want to see every single post that comes up, or they want to only be notified when they are mentioned. I think having a centralized and customizable notifications would make these sites so much easier to keep track of your posts and responses to the posts.

The greatest example was on Google+ (which is gone now), where you could respond to posts from notifications. I'm not expecting that it has to be that good, but just having a centralized notifications area or icon that one can see and click to go to the post would make things a lot easier, and being able to customize what notifications you get would be great for people so no one has to go through every post that posted to find something they want if they only follow one section of the forum or something.

Okay... So I'm having two major issues.

The first is that after I bought the attachment upgrade for my forum so people could upload pictures, suddenly the attachment function isn't working anymore. Everytime I try it just says internal error and to contact the webmaster. Once I removed the attachments it works find. I bought the attachment upgrade and confirmed it does show up in my admin bar when I check the storage for the community as having the space available. I don't know what happened, but it is VERY annoying that I bought this upgrade, and then suddenly the function stops working less than a week afterward.
The second issue is that tagging isn't working all the time. I noticed someone try to tag me, and it did not tag me, but just showed up as plain text and didn't show up in my notifications of being mentioned. This appears random, since it has been done before, and sometimes just doesn't happen even if they type the name in correct (I mostly just copy and paste the name from the members page and that usually works).

Guides and Tutorials / Viewing IP Addresses

I want to restrict the viewing of IP addresses to admins only (I want to turn it off for the moderators.) How do I do so?
