On the Forums and other pages, I don't see a way to add a 3-column component (similar to Article Pages) to place some widgets in them. Sidebar becomes too tall with widgets and placing widgets in the left/wide bar makes the widgets too wide and not optimal. Please provide a way to add extra 2-column and 3-column template components to Forums and other pages (top and bottom) in the left/wide bar. These would not show at runtime if not used and nothing is placed in them and so they would not break anything. TIA

In Fluid View mode, pinned topics from all subforums would probably occupy more than half of the first page. Instead, there could be a config option to render 2-4 pinned topics on each row on the top of topic list (instead of one pinned topic per row). This way, all pinned topics would get accommodated on a couple of topic list rows to save vertical space and scroll-fest for a better UX. TIA

Hi, My name is David. I run a side business called Mountain Interactive and frequently browse forum pages around Invision community. I've used Discord mainly for my community with over 34k+ Members. I am more attracted to running a website (forum) instead for communication as it is a more safer and enjoyable way, discord feels too corporate and doesn't give you enough room for customization. Now, I used to use Xenforo and left because they made an error while cloud hosting my site and I lost pretty much all my site data and subscribers which is really important when you're making $20,000 a month and need to ensure that your billing is working as normal every single d…

Not sure how difficult this would be to implement but. For the CMS/Pages application: The ability to choose different schema types for different databases and pages, such as an about page, using to json-ld generator. Also since different schema types have different properties, the ability to match/ choose schema properties with custom field types. This is similar to how yoastSEO and similar WordPress SEO plugins works. I'm not sure if this is fully possible with the Google data layer but that seems a bit complicated to implement.

Permissions needed for Events > Subscribe > Download iCalendar Export Subscribe to iCalendar Feed Currently, anyone can download/subscribe to these and if the data was gathered and put together painstakingly after extensive research for months, anyone could simply download and upload it into their site's events module within seconds. TIA

Hi guys, not sure if this is already being worked on for V5 but I'm throwing it out there. Basically I'd love for there to be a way to set different navigation menus depending on the device a user is browsing the community on. I ask this because on desktop, I might want to have three major menu items on display before having a "More" dropdown that houses all other sections of the community... but on mobile (where the user menu is vertical and offers more space) I would want to have all menu items lined up on the top level without any dropdown/nested menus. It'd be great to allow for different menus per device/theme to account for this, or if that's too much mayb…

I have a single forum and a few clubs. When I go to Display Settings of the forum, the "Enable Combined Fluid View?" switch is disabled with a warning - Combined fluid view cannot be enabled as this forum does not have any sub-forums Multiple forums will fragment discussions and lower forum activity negatively. I used clubs to segment popular topics but would like to offer an option to users to consolidate the forum/clubs content in a Fluid view. I guess it would be ideal to consider the Clubs as sub-forums and allow to enable Fluid View of the single forum in conjunction with Clubs. The Clubs widget (on the Forum page) could be reused/repurposed with checkboxes…

Currently, when we click the Category heading in the filters widget, all the checkboxes/subforums under the category get selected (toggle behavior). However, there is no way the user would know that is how it works and they select/unselect each subforum manually which is a bad UX. Instead, there should be a checkbox for each Category heading too which will bulk-toggle the selections of all subforums under the category (expected behavior). TIA

On Discussion type forums, the forum name of the topic is displayed on topic detail page. Forum name is rendered under "By Administrator" followed by Date and Forum name (clickable blend-link). But on Question type forums, this forum name is missing and there is no way to tell from the topic detail page to which forum the topic belongs. You can see under "Asked by Administrator" it says 13 minutes ago but no forum name. Instead of rendering the forum name under "Asked by Admin" as a blend-link, it would be ideal to add the Forum name in the breadcrumb on the top where it says "Home > Welcome!" - it should ideally say - …

It be a graceful to be able to predefine and lock categories for Blog Entries - similar to how they are optional to be predefined for Tags, Articles and also Blogs but lacking at Blog Entries level. Instead of repeating everything all over again, here is the topic - TIA

I recently upgraded from 4.7.13 to 4.7.14 and soon after my server began sending me "Excessive Resource" warnings--a couple of dozen per day, which the task exceeds 600MB. I know I can change the memory level on my server to a higher warning level to stop receiving them, but before doing so I wanted to mention this, and ask what with the recent update my cause this sudden change? Some of the warnings are also about excessive time to complete the process. Has anyone else noticed this?

I had to rebuild Achievements and other stuff that has taken a good 10 days now (huge forum). The problems with the current functionality is that other background processes get completely stuck while big processes are running. I now have over 2,000 processes in wait state... (se attachment) Any way to push/change so "small" background processes could run asynchronous? ---

Hi team, If we have many groups and many content it is very complicated to set permissions because all the groups appear out of order. We only order by name in the groups page, can be useful to search some group name but not when set permissions in new forum created. We've all groups mixed, guests, admin, moderators, partners, ex-partners, etcc... and it's dificult So It would be very useful to be able to sort them manually as we do with the forums and have them appear in this order when assigning permissions. This would save us time and many errors when assigning privileges in our communities. Can you consider for upcoming upgrades? Thanks a lot.

Hello, The available GeoIP integration is a very good idea. However, in practice it causes more confusion instead of helping with security, because the location detection is highly inaccurate. I looked this up and it seems the integration uses an API on IPS infrastructure, which in turn polls the free version of the MaxMind databse (GeoLite2). Is there any way to switch the GeoIP integration to our own Maxmind subscription? We already have a GeoIP2 City Database subscription and we'd like to use it. Thanks!

Ability a toggle to hide all images from a particular group to guests and spiders/bots and replaced with a default image. Some images that can be taken from the net can be uploaded by members not knowing that some are copyrighted and it seems there are a few unscrupulous companies out there that look for particular copyrighted images then send small businesses or innocent website owners an invoice for usage, and are very persistant and some nasty. Can range from £50 to £10,000. These companies send lot's are legal worded letters and threats and can affect some website owners who are vulnerable. At least then google wont spider images so these companies cannot tr…

Personally I think it's a weird decision that adding new Word Expansions don't apply on already created words. It makes most sense that expansions are created after you find a word you want to add because it get used often. I have hundreds of post that are not using the word expansion because of this, yes you can go back and edit (without actually editing) and save to apply but for larger sites with thousands of posts... Feature request: A way to refresh the Word Expansions so they apply to posts, even if you'd have to manually select the feature to avoid server load but just having the option to do it.

Hello Team, It would be nice to export the configuration data from ACP as Last-Good backup that can be used to restore the config anytime or to quickly start a new website using the config data with a head-start as opposed to starting a site from scratch. Config data should not include the transaction data such as topics, posts, blog entries, articles, events, users, moderators, etc. The backup copies could be stored on the server and also made downloadable. What do you think?

Hello, If I go to AdminCP-System-Settings-General Configuration, I see this: Adding a Twitter page will show this on the Home page: As you all know, the Twitter logo (and name) has changed, and most of the websites have now adapted the logo to the new one. When do you plan to update this as well? Same should be done from the Block Manager: Which right now is showing this: Thank you in advance!

When using the "courses" feature you have to specify names for each module for all language packs you've installed (which is English and German in our Community). Those names are all shown simultaneously when taking the Course. This is very confusing and feel like it is broken. The description of the module (which a can also be given in any installed language) is displayed in the selected language only. And for the lessons in that module you cannot even specify multilingual content. So, for a quick improvement/fix, I'd really love to have the module's name only be displayed in the selected language, just as every other text resource in the platform. I'…

Please consider adding places or hooks or slots ... obviously I am not a developer ... so that we community admistrators can add a circle with a question mark or circle with an "i" inside that is universally regarded as a click point to elaborate on a field or function. Having these 'info circles' would be a big help for people who are not familiar with things like quoting a topic, uploading an image, adding information for a special application. It seems like coding this feature universally around the Invision Community platform would make it easy for an administrator to simply add an info circle with a text explanation for many acp features while inside the acp.…

Not sure if this should be suggested here or as a plugin for the text editor, but relative links back to sites on the same community should be possible. There are a few ways I can see doing this: Naked URIs. A link to /forum should be expanded to https://www.example.com/forum . Currently, this expands to https://%2Fforum. Use a replacement symbol. Razor (C#'s web rendering engine) uses ~, so a link to ~/forum should be expanded to https://www.example.com/forum. We could use other symbols too, but this comes with the benefit of familiarity. UI change, allowing us to select between an internal and external link. This could get infinitely more complex, e…

As discussed in the linked support thread, I have a page I've built using folders which lives at /docs/dmca/takedown-notice. When navigating to the page, this url is reflected in my url (friendly urls enabled), however the breadcrumbs simply contain the file name and omit the path. I would like pages to be able to build breadcrumbs, but this may require a bit of changes to how the page system works. Currently, in order to have a folder work as its own page, you have to create a page where the Page Filename is index.html. This automatically gets visually stripped from friendly urls. I see three implementation options: Require each folder to have an index.…

Hello! Just copy-pasting a feature request I wanted to add; this was originally in another topic but I later discovered the OP author posted in the wrong forum. :S ------ I'd like to formally request some additional permission features for the Blog app as currently it's severely lacking. I am already using Pages for a staff-operated news blog, but I want to offer my community the opportunity to create their own blogs using a simplistic and approachable format - so the Blog app is perfect for what I want here. However, while I can create Blog categories from the AdminCP, it seems that I can't set Category permissions much like I can with Forums, …
