Hello, I was asked to post this in the feedback section in response to my support ticket... Please could you update the Redis configuration settings in Advanced Configuration, to include a USERNAME field for compatibility with the latest stable release of Redis (currently v6.2.5). https://redis.io/download IPS needs to be able to pass the username as part of the configuration, whereas previous it was just an optional password (due to changes that came about with the improved security and ACL feature). https://redis.io/topics/acl Many thanks.

When you click a Category you should also be in the same view as the index. And these buttons should remain.

Hello guys, I noticed that writing long posts of the editor remains at the top and frankly I find this uncomfortable, it would be much better than when writing a rather long post inside the text there was a scrollbar so the toolbar remains fixed and does not serve scroll up and down. Sorry for my english...google translate.

So in the ACP there are a few settings that require you to download and then ftp SFTP your constants file to the server. Could there ever be a way that the ACP could do this automatically? Since upgrading the site we never really have to download and upload any more?!

Please add the option to hide advertisements on individual CMS / Pages. Just a simple checkbox on the Editing Page X form will do the trick 🙂 Thanks!

It should be great to have the possibility to set a Password to allow users access a specific closed Club. Or am I missing something? Best regards!

Hey there, since updating to 4.6.2 my members are missing the feature of emphasized topic titles for unread topics / posts in topic feeds. Support told me they removed this feature due to performance reasons. Could you please re-add this feature or at least make it configurable? My board never had performance issues due to this feature and I'd really like to have it back. Those topics still get emphasized in the normal forum view but not when included in topic feeds. Many regards Marco

Fluid mode is excellent, however on larger forums like my own with multiple levels deep the sidebar spans 2 page scrolls. An expandable [+] sign would be helpful with the ability to select if the parent category displays all the sub-categories, or if they're collapsed and only displayed once [+] is pressed.

Hi, Audio notifications were removed from the 4.6 series. My suggestion is to add it back, as our users are missing this feature. Maybe adding an option in the user's account so they can enable/disable it on an individual basis? Cheers.

I've read a lot of topics criticising the activity stream feature and I find it utterly unuserfriendly as well. What was the logic behind this change? It seems like a case where someone was trying to fix something that already worked and made it worse. Like Microsoft and the whole Windows 8 debacle. Activity stream may be useful for a low traffic board and works on Facebook where you only get certain "posts" in your stream. But what is the point of having an activity stream on a high traffic board? It's so clumsy at what it should be doing. Instead of letting you know which topics have new posts so you can get up to date, you face an endless stream of new posts …

I love pages, always have to start with that. But it feels like we can do more. I am trying to build the largest database of searchable records for video game information. I feel like I need the ability to create records within records to accomplish my task. Lets take a look. Video Game Magazine Database Name - Nintendo Power Issue 1 Issue # - 1 Month - July/August Year - 1988 Total Pages - 108p Country - USA Video Games Database Name - Super Mario Bros. 2 Publisher - Nintendo System - Nintendo Entertainment System Country - USA Genre - Platformer Now how do I bridge those…

I didn't like the badges from when I first saw them. Now that they've been in place for a while, they look even worse. Plus, I have no idea what their purpose is. I have not updated my sites yet, probably in a few weeks. I will definitely not be using the new badge system.

Hi! There's a function when adding an article or even a blog that allows to add them as hidden/not published. For some reason it's not the case when adding a download item and either you need to add it with full description or you need to publish it and then set hidden which is a strange way to handle content on someone's website. So it would be great to be able to add a file as hidden, just a tiny switch when adding a downloads item would be perfect. Thanks 😉

The expanded view is a great teaser-feed to get people in, however people wanting to open the discussion now have too many other variables available for them to open. Who liked, who followed, last reply. The actual action of opening the thread is is now harder as that 1 link is moved in amongst all other available links and content. Making the entire post area clickable would make it easier to open the discussion. I've just highlighted in blue the area I'm suggesting, or that entire <div> block.

Hi, In USA everybody knows the VAT is to be added to what you buy, even in public stores so the shop logics are based on a "without VAT" price where the VAT is added at checkout... The Commerce module logic uses the same principle. Here in Europe we display prices "all taxes included", so the final price with the total amount of what you will have to pay, including VAT. My "problem" is that if I enable VAT management in commerce it is only a percent of the product value that is added to the "basic" (without VAT) price. It is the normal way VAT works, I agree, but it is not very useful. For europeans like me, it is a bit complex to got the exact total price…

Despite that Pages App has "Reviews" tab for entries they are not used for SCHEMA JSON. There is no rich snippet for it. Google is focusing more and more on direct answers, answer boxes, review boxes, faq schemas. We need those in IPB. Invision teams says on and on about SEO improvements so please add something that really works for SEO and getting higher CTR. I created this topic after getting no help from Invision team here - And I was forced to use support to get answer which was:

Hello everybody, It would be great if we could block the registration of a user if the Display Name he chose contains certain words that we consider prohibited. Thanks!

I'd like to feature request to get a setting in AdminCP where we can say attachments should be opened "inline" as a tab in the browser, instead of triggering a download. We host quite many pages with attached PDFs that get accessed frequently, having these to open in a browser tab would save so much time for everyone. Today we're required to make a workaround by editing the source files to accomplish this, which is not a very good practice of course. Regards.

This is what scrolling topics with images in IPB looks like: (Tested with 1gbit/s internet connection <10ms latency) Why is this bad? Text + Images + Scrolling = Forum And this affects 3/3 of your product. (quickmath 😛) What i'm trying to say is that, new features are cool, we love them. But don't forget your roots, they need some love too. Reason for the scrolling/loading issues: IPB preloads the spacer.png file instead of the actual image, then it goes for the image itself. This blocks all content from being rendered, because that's how browsers handle it, which results in a truly awful scrolling experience. It's normal …

ACP > Word Filters The word filters allow duplicate entries. For instance, if I create a filter: Replace: <this> With: <that> and then create the same filter again, the system will allow it, and we end up with two identical filters. IMO, the system should check if the filter already exists, and display an error saying that the filter already exists, and preventing us from creating it again. Thanks

Some users have been confused by the change from display names to email address on login. The text box says "email", but some users have ignored it. It would be helpful, if there was a checkbox option in the admin area to allow the appropriate label to be displayed above each login text box. The same would apply for resetting password, etc. By the way, we have placed a banner on the home page to draw attention to the change. Thanks. Dan

Hello, Currently the solved counter in the user's pane only shows up in forums where the solved feature is enabled. See image attached. I think this counter should be shown in all forums. Just because in one particular forum we can't mark topics as solved, I don't think we should hide the fact that the user solved topics in other forums within the same community. Thanks.

Actually we can recompute badges for all members, but for an unknown reason some users do not get the badges they should and others got too much badges... 😑 In our case recompute all the members badges takes more than 3 hours (it has been long testing our rules system...), it will be useful if we could "rebuild a single user" badges/ranks set, for the users detecting wrong badges & rank attribution... It may also be useful for testing purposes : tests the rules set on a single user goes more fast than on the whole community...
