Application Notes:

  • If you are using a free hosting, then support will not be provided - If you can afford Invision Community Suite, you can afford a decent host.
  • If use IIS as your web server and encounter any issues, please try switching to Apache or another server type. IIS has been known to have compatibility issues.
