Jrock's post in Undo Invision installation was marked as the answer
Follow what Oni said if you want to move the entire thing as is. If for whatever reason you want to go through the installation process again, why not just upload a fresh installation and go through the installer? Save whatever you need like themes, etc, then just install fresh.
If you need more help, please clarify further regarding what you're trying to accomplish.

Jrock's post in Required to associate account with Discord was marked as the answer
My old site was based around Steam games. I disabled registration on the site and used the Sign in through Steam plugin. When they did so, it created them an account.
Try using this login handler, disabling primary registrations (IPB default) and see if it accomplishes what you're looking for

Jrock's post in Locked app error, wont run was marked as the answer
^ This is what I'm re-iterating. The error message is indicating that there is an empty field where it expects to find data such as an address. Is that the exact same error message you're getting?
I'm not quite sure what you're asking; I don't really use commerce, I'm just asking if your customer's address and location fields are empty so we can compare what you have against Davlin's suggestion.

Jrock's post in Can not install IPS was marked as the answer
Check your Apache web server error logs and let us know what you find.
Also check file permissions and ownership as 403 means access denied.

Jrock's post in spam defense was marked as the answer
Most people use the question and answer feature to combat spammers as you can set questions specific to the topic of your board to further make it difficult for spammers to beat. Change them every so often.
See this topic for more information:
On my forum, the subject matter pertains to a Steam game. So, we've disabled regular registrations and users can only join the site using a Steam account. We've never had even one spammer register on the site.
Hope this helps!

Jrock's post in How to make global sticky post? was marked as the answer
Personally, I would rather use the "announcement" feature under the moderator control panel. This is as close as you'll get to a "global pinned topic" without custom coding.

Jrock's post in Give every registered member a award was marked as the answer
I use it too but unfortunately I was also unable to locate a way to "mass give awards". I had to backtrack the members that deserved them and issue them one by one.

Jrock's post in Remake my website was marked as the answer
You're doing a pretty sketchy thing. You can't just plug a database into a new forum that has new files, as some of the files such as your configuration, uploads, etc, all relate to the database. Things will appear as broken, if they work at all. You could just save your posts and forums, I suppose, but I've never tried that, nor do I recommend it.
Depending on how trashed your forum is, you may just want to take this opportunity to start over. That way everything will work perfectly and any issues you're experiencing now will be squashed, versus potentially re-appearing later on. But, I don't know how much content your site has or how long it's been up for.
If you are having a few issues here and there, let us know what they are. We all have made rookie mistakes at some point in our webmaster careers. Maybe we can help you.
Hope this helps a little bit. In the end, if you absolutely don't want to keep your current site, I would recommend just flushing the whole thing.

Jrock's post in Theme was marked as the answer
You will need to adjust your php upload settings to allow for larger files to be uploaded.
Here is an article that can hopefully point you in the right direction: https://www.drupal.org/docs/7/managing-site-performance-and-scalability/increase-upload-size-in-your-phpini

Jrock's post in search engine was marked as the answer
Go to Google's webmaster tools and you can add your site and create a sitemap.xml file.
https://www.google.com/webmasters/
Granted, Google is the most widely used search engine, so this is all I use. It won't help you with Yahoo, Bing, and others. You will need to find a separate site for those.
The best things you can do for SEO are have a sitemap, ask the engines to crawl and index your site (You can do this within Google's webmaster tools), use friendly URLs, and do more research.
Hope this helps.

Jrock's post in Error 403 site was working for 3 weeks was marked as the answer
I suggest contact your host about this. The "home directory not available" message pertains to your site's home directory where your root files go. I am confident that only your host will be able to rectify this issue for you.
Let us know what they say.. maybe we can help get you back up and running then.

Jrock's post in Group name style code appears as code! was marked as the answer
It's not parsing because your code is whack.
Try using the following:
<strong><span style="background-image: url (http://******.zone/gif/owned.gif); color: #ff0000; text-shadow: 1px 1px 8px #ff0000;"></span></strong> Also, take a look at the following page; it may help you in the future: http://www.htmlgoodies.com/tutorials/html_401/article.php/3479661
Obviously, replace the ****** part with your actual domain.

Jrock's post in search member for age was marked as the answer
What I think he wants to do, is search for members, by possibly adding a minimum/maximum age boxes to the advanced members search page, which will display the members who have their birthday set, who are also within a range you specify on the search page.
This would entail custom work I assume.. because there is no way to do this by default. It would also rely on the members setting their birthdate in their profiles to function properly.

Jrock's post in How to make Examobile the default mobile skin was marked as the answer
To make your skin default and available to all members, make sure your page looks something like this (take particular notice of "Select ALL current and future groups or...", "Make this the default skin?" and "Hide this skin from the drop down list?").
Press "Save Set" and your skin will be installed and ready to go!

Jrock's post in Advertisement on Header/Footer was marked as the answer
Assuming you're using IP.Nexus, it's pure HTML code that you use. Not BBCode or anything. Make sure your HTML code is correct as well.
IE:
<a href="http url"><img src="img url" /></a>

Jrock's post in Dis/enable hooks per skin? was marked as the answer
There is no way to set certain hooks to work on certain skins.
However, assuming this is what you are talking about: http://community.invisionpower.com/files/file/6083-nb34-reflection-avatars/
You may be able to add a new setting here which specified what skins the reflected avatars will show on, similar to the groups settings box. If you don't know how to do this, you may want to have someone else do it for you, which may cost you money. If you want to go that route, you may want to post here. Another option is contacting the developer and asking them to include this feature in the next version of the hook, if they plan on updating it.
