I think I made a feature topic about Our Picks before, but I had this brainwave and wanted to share another idea. It would be great to allow community members to 'suggest' content for promotion onto the Our Picks (or Featured, or whatever it's going to be called in V5) page. They could click a button saying "I loved this! Suggest for Promotion" or something, and a dialog could appear with a text field asking why they liked it and why they want it to be shown on the front page (so others may see it). These submissions could be collected into the ModCP and mods/admins could consider them for inclusion - if so, they can tweak a suggested headline and body copy much like…

Hi I rly need to exclude a specified forum / subforum from counting points to leaderboard. In my case when forum is 95% dedicated to one field and only 5% of topics are different i just create other forum tab and move all of them there. But i need to exclude that forum and topics and posts and reaction points from counting to leaderboard. Simply as currently excluding groups and setting categories to show or not to show or as filters. ACP->Member Settings -> Reputation & Reactions -> Leaderboard

Hi, Invision 4.7 seems to lack automatic image compression functionality when images are attached to a post. This results in us using more storage than absolutely necessary. I vaguely recall that Invision had an automatic image compression feature in an previous version but I can't seem to find any way to do this in 4.7. Our userbase consists of members with varying level of technical ability, so while we ask them to optimise their images it would be unreasonable for us to expect them to do this, not to mention it's an inconvenience. Is there a solution to this? Thanks

I noticed there is no sitemap for clubs. As they can be indexed, such a map would be useful for better and faster indexation.

Hey Invision Team, I have a proposal for a settings change, which I think makes sense for sites that feature clubs. This is the current setting. Show Club Content Areas: Only within Clubs Throughout the community I have a setup that allows members to join numerous clubs and I would like to allow members to only see their club's content throughout the community. I think the simple approach would be to use a filter like this. Clubs to show throughout the community: Public Open Clubs member has joined Read Only All / None If this problem isn't unique to me, I think the flexibility here would add value t…

Bare with me here, because the reason for this suggested change likely does not happen on your own forum...this forum...because your users are highly biased--we're all more or less "experts" with how forums work, and especially Invision forums. The Problem--too many users use "Quote & Reply", and then put their reply within the quote. My forum has been running continuously for over 20 years now, and I am having a growing issue with the use of the "Quote & Reply"--the problem specifically is that most newer users, and even some older ones, always use this to respond--even if they reply to a post directly after it. A bigger problem, however, is that many u…

Hi IPS, Can you bring and option to next release allowing us to disable send of email/notification upon upload of new file version in Downloads app? The option is useful to avoid useless spam of member's mail box and to avoid misleading notification of "new version". Happens we need to reupload specific version of file, e.g. to correct some file mistake we did, change that does not require everyone to re-download a file. There is no need to bother members every time in such situation. A simple on/off toggle upon upload of new version would be very useful. Can you please bring it to nest maintenance release? Thank you.

Hi, over the years, I have seen a lot of feature requests and suggestions in this thread, and none gets implemented when politely requested. So now I will not ask. I am demanding this change for IPS v5. Make it happen 🙂. In IPSv4, when an image is uploaded in the forum and across the suite, except for the Gallery app, the EXIF data, including camera and lens specs, is not stored in the database. This makes it impossible for third-party devs to create add-ons which can display the image's EXIF data in the Forums app, Pages app and other places. This simple feature is vital for many who use the IPS suite for photo\image-driven communities. So, can IPS readjust the imag…

I have a pet peeve, images uploaded to our gallery display their file name as the title. For example a member uploads their image and doesn't change the title image, so it then displays something like DSC2849.jpg instead of for example "Oak Cabinet". I have rules displayed for image uploading in each gallery, but they are apparently ignored. Is there any way to auto enforce changing the title of an image uploaded to our galleries? Our community is gallery and image heavy, visual arts. It drives me crazy that folks are lazy and just use their default image file title. Any suggestions are greatly appreciated.

Just a shout out to Team Invision: We upgraded a site running 4.2.4 (how old is that?) today to the current version of 4.7.15 and it went really smooth. The site has about 20,000 members (not sure how many topics), but the upgrade didn't take long at all. 😍 We have two big sites running 4.3.6, which we're going to upgrade this week too!

Recently, while administering a large board running IPS 4.x, I saw that there are a lot of performance optimizations already in place which is great. I also saw a few instances of front and back-end performance issues, and in some cases, outright crashing; one of these boils down to 2 things: Embedded iframes (like tweets) do not use the deferred loading=lazy attribute, so on topics with many embeds, pages slow to a crawl or outright crash (esp. Apple devices) Embedded iframes seem to point to an iframe loader as a sort of internal proxy, which increases load on the server, particularly for large sites, probably predating loading=lazy I have implement…

There is this application but in IC5 something like that must become a part of the Core. Bots that sneak thru the registration process is so annoying. What's more annoying - making all members links to be moderated. This is a no-go. IPS should allow to setup some rules where a member who has yet to have X no. of posts and be a member for Y amount of days to get his posts held up for moderation if they include links. Even EDITED posts for that matter. I see a common practice when bots or smartass spammers write a generally okay comment, wait until topic gets more replies then edits that post to something else and includes backlinks. Even when editing if link is …

Please allow to upload font files (woff2, woff, otf, ttf...) in Media as there is currently no way to upload custom font files. These are not unsafe.

Hi. seoTitle function currently does not remove Emoji from URLs. Link with emoji becomes unfriendly. Consider adding a new preg_replace $value = preg_replace('/[^ -\x{2122}]\s+|\s*[^ -\x{2122}]/u','',$value); The copied and pasted URL looks like this: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/470924-emoji-in-seotitle-unfriendly-url-%F0%9F%94%A5%F0%9F%98%85%F0%9F%98%B2%F0%9F%92%9B%F0%9F%A4%A9%F0%9F%A4%AE%F0%9F%98%8A/

Currently I can use Saved Actions in Clubs forums, but from Saved Actions configuration it miss the clubs support when I choose the Move action. From clubs forums, when the topic is marked with a Save Action, I want to move that topic into another clubs forum.

Good day folks. I create custom blocks for a lot of things, temp blocks for an event I'd like to highlite for a time period, blocks for advertisers that have limited times of showing and no longer usable, blocks that at one time seemed like a good idea, and now they aren't. As I was going through my blocks and cleaning house, I found it very difficult to actually determine which one went where and if it was being used or not. It would be nice to have a small blurb in the custom block "Details" where the block is being used, or not used at all. Perhaps something like "used on acme page" or "not active" or something of the sorts. Thanks for your consideration.

Currently, Link Filters have options to only Block and Moderate but no option to Replace with something like ****. Blocking displays the link as text which other users can still copy and paste into a browser (eg: affiliate links, solicitations, etc). Please provide an option to Replace prohibited links (displayed text as well as underlying link) with specified text. Also, please sort Link Filters in alpha order (currently not sorted). Can we enter params text like *tag=* in Link Filters or does it need valid domain with extension like amazon.com/?tag=... ?

Obviously, IC does not use full-text search but also lacks the basic stemming, synonyms, plurals in search. If we search for the word "consist" and there also exist words like consists, consistent, consistently, etc. these additional words are not matched in the search which does an exact word match search only making the search far from accurate. As you are aware, stemming works by using the derived variations of the word's root in the search. Searched word: manage Root: manag Stems: manage, manager, managers, manages, management, managerial, managing... Now we can use these root words with wild cards in search logic for a knock-out search. …

We already have previews on hover for our Forums. Can we extend that capability to hover article previews when an inline text link is provide for an article? For example: I really love this helpful article on Spam Prevention, it is very helpful. So, when you hover your cursor over "Spam Prevention" we'd have an article popup preview appear. Thanks for your consideration.

Hey guys! We've been making use of the ModCP across our site as a way to manage actions taken by our moderators. Having spent more time in the area, I have a few suggestions I was hoping you might consider for a future version: Once a report is made, there is no way to interact with the person that reported the content or to interact with the person being reported (other than to warn them). At the bottom of the report currently is two tabs, one for the content from the person reporting, and another for moderator content. Allowing moderators to reply to the first tab if we wanted to interact with the person reporting would be helpful. (Collect more i…
