Before version 4.6 in the message, the user could switch between pictures using the arrows. While the picture is being loaded for the first time - the arrows are present. After loading - they are hidden. Is this a bug or a feature? Or is there an option somewhere to enable it? I've uploaded some pictures as an example. The last screenshot with the moment of loading when there are still arrows.

Hello, Is there a way to upload a file onto my Invision site so that I can create a custom block that uses it? I want to have an Articulate 360 Storyline on our site.

Thanks, Nigel

As titled, after updating to v4.5.4.2, Downloads served by IPS are no longer completing successfully. The downloads end prematurely and result in a corrupted archive. I updated from v4.2.x and Downloads were functioning normally prior. We delayed updates for unrelated reasons. IPS Support isn't being helpful or even bothering looking at the situation closely (why tell me anything about Securi when it is obvious my site is using Cloudflare? ... I digress), so I am hoping someone in the community has had this problem and can actually read what I am saying to advise further beyond generic responses. The test file in question is ~200mb and has over 5,000 downloads o…

Just curious if under General Configuration >> Social Profiles if I can add/modify these? I have no idea what a Xing is, but I would like for Telegram, Discord or OnlyFans to be selectable. How hard is it to modify these, or should I just go add what I need into the template itself?

Ever since I updated my forum to 4.6.2, topics on the forum index page and in forums themselves are being "downloaded" rather than displayed when you click on them. It's not consistent, ie: it doesn't happen every time. It is easily reproducible. https://www.ibspatient.org/community Is anyone else seeing this?

Hi, I'm importing a bunch of data via the API, to a Cloud-hosted Invision site. I'm getting cloudfront blocks (403) very regularly. Can anyone tell me what the rate limiting settings are so I can avoid them? At the moment I'm waiting 3 seconds between threads, and 1 second between each thread reply. At this rate I'll be doing this until September 😂

This evening I received this banner informing me that a patch is available. This struck me as odd for several reasons: There is no mention of this patch on invisioncommunity.com Invision is out-of-office for July 5th (says the blue banner up top), so who's pushing this patch? Does anyone have the same notice?

Search is not pulling anything up, but maybe someone is aware of such a feature or more likely a plugin? Just the standard button seen on desktop and mobile to ping the user up to the top. Thanks
