A database I've made in Pages aims to make an audio - video gallery. Records added can be a Youtube or Soundcloud link or a direct upload. When an mp3 is uploaded the default Embedded Player does not show but only a link for download. I bought (NE) HTML5 Audio/Video Player hoping to address the audio player issue but the helpful author said that "the plugin as it is designed to work on editor content, whereas in this case the field that contained the attachment was an 'upload' type". He also said that "the Pages app provides the ability to already present a player if desired" by adding the following code. After setting the 'Display View Format' to Cu…

I wasn't sure if this should go under development assistance or not, as I'm not sure if this isn't a built-in feature. But, what's really annoying about Invision Blogs is that every blog entry has information about the blog category. Is there any way to remove that information? For example: Again, if this isn't something that can be changed by default settings, feel free to move this to the appropriate forum. Thanks!

Trying to setup the Facebook login. The Facebook part of the setup was no problem. But I get to this section in the instructions, and not sure where to go or what options to choose to do the Invision side of things. I see Login and Registration, but absolutely NO details in the instructions. What form and where?

I'm a bit stumped on this. Here's a category in one of my Pages databases: The category header and description are called by the following in the categoryHeader template: <div class="articles__banner"> <p class="articles__title"><span>{$category->_title}</span></p> {{if $category->_description}}<p class="articles__description"><span>{$category->_description}</span></p>{{endif}} </div> My categories which don't have descriptions should show only the title, since the conditional check on descriptions should evaluate to FALSE. That's not what's happening, however: My sour…

Hi everyone, Glad to be a part of this community. Have been using IPS for a week now and love it. But now I have a question: I have created a new Custom Field (for Customers) and linked it to the Profile Completion process (for the customer to choose). Outstanding. Now - how do I include the values of the chosen Custom Field in the customer's profile, such that it appears under their name when they post? Alternatively, can Custom Field values be used for Rank? Any and all help appreciated, Michael

I need to use Invision Power Board with Wordpress. I downloaded miniorange-oauth-20-server plugin and OAuth Login, after installing Invision Power Board. I followed the instructions I found here: https://invisioncommunity.com/4guides/how-to-use-ips-community-suite/social-sign-in/43-and-above/wordpress-r304/.

I may have posted about this before, but I cannot find the thread. Since at least April 2017, my users have reported that threads containing embedded tweets skip around while you're reading them. It only manifests when you attempt to read a thread you've already read before. Initially, the forum loads the page positioned at the last unread marker, but then as embedded tweets before and after this load their content, the page skips around until it's positioned somewhere else entirely once done. Per my users: Affected: Firefox mobile, Safari Not affected: Chrome, Edge mobile I had wondered if Chrome was unaffected due to the use of overflow-anchor, but …

Hi, Is there a way I can hook into a files download count inside of a IP Content / Pages template. Maybe by ID or something? I looked at how the download count is pulled in the actual Downloads application but I am not sure how to reference it from a IP Content / Pages template or template field. Does anyone know how, or can someone show me some example code? I am wanting to show the download counter directly in the template, not link to the download page.

Could someone tell me if it's possible to add blocks to posts by embedding HTML into the text editor? I have a newsletter widget and I want to create an announcement which displays the block beneath the message, just to make things easier but I can't seem to figure out how to add the block. I've added HTML to posts in the past but I'm hoping the block can be added to the actual post. Any help would be appreciated.
