Would it be possible to change how the ACP (Admin) menu re-orders items? I would propose a slight change; Rather the current method of having to click on 'reorder' and then 'save', I would suggest that the menu items are saved when after an item is dragged and dropped. This seems more in line with the rest of the GUI in IPB.

That the developer of the Advanced Tags and Prefixes app has ceased updates, it would be amazing if this functionality would be integrated into the core IPS going forward. Please consider IPS!!! It is one of the most used apps on the marketplace and really makes the tag system of IPS useable.

Are these necessary, I mean really necessary? Haven’t used them once since the upgrade to 4.x. Why would anyone click reply to this topic before actually reading the posts below? Start new topic, doesn’t the create link at the top cover that base if needed? Would love to know if others do and I’m on my own with this, just looks like a waste of space to be honest. Moderators actions could be shifted up next to the Follow button

Now I have My Attachments fuelled, I thing this part of ips should be improved 1. Thumbnail of files and images, I want to check which images can be deleted. 2. Multiple selections, right now only can be deleted one by one.

I have now moved one of my sites to the IPS cloud, and my members start to complain about slow speed. They where used to lightning fast speed on the website, but now it is much slower. I notice it myselve also. Does IPS have any plan to move cloud-servers to EU area? I'm in Norway?

Are report reasons meant to show up when someone reports a status update? Wanted quick verification before I go through the process of submitting a ticket. They show up for all reportable content except for status updates on my site.

My forum uses the "Acronym Expansion" feature extensively. Unfortunately, it works inconsistently across browsers and does not work on mobile at all. Currently, Invision renders the acronyms in posts like this: <abbr title="United States of America">USA</abbr> I found some simple jQuery script and CSS that will turn the pop-up into a mobile-friendly tooltip if the code could be rendered like this instead: <abbr title="United States of America" rel="tooltip">USA</abbr> Unfortunately, I cannot figure out what file to edit to make this small change.

I offer rewards for my different subscriber tiers. There should be the option to charge "full price" for an upgrade. Otherwise users are able to upgrade at no charge and then cancel their supporter tier before it renews in order to steal products from me. Without this I'm forced to not allow upgrades or downgrades, which is annoying. Please allow the ability to charge full price for upgrades and downgrades.

Would be nice to have a block or section in admin panel that lists all 3rd party connection status with a green for good check mark or red x for problem. Maybe a task that runs once a day to test each connection for: Login methods; Facebook, Twitter, etc., connectivity. external storage like S3, etc Any APIs like google, Mapquest, sendgrid, etc. Just to give the admin the piece of mind that everything is connected and working. Devs should also be able to add any APIs they build apps for as well and want to include.

It is strange that you can search items in the folder but as soon as you do you loose the option to select all or check individual items - and there is no bulk actions I can't move 50 messages by a filtered person to their own folder? It would be nice if Messages and folders worked more like email including drag and drop or bulk operations, or at the very least ability to tag messages so you can find things.

If pressed on the home page, it takes 4 clicks to get to the topic form, compared to XF which takes 2 clicks to get to the topic form, XF also displays all options immediately without the need for a dropdown. This button could be improved, I never used it personally but I'd use it more if the options were more like this compared to

Is it possible for us to get a 'random' Sort By feature? I thought this already existed, but upon trying to make a custom block to randomly display new topics made in the last 30 days, I found that it wasn't a listed option. I wanted to spotlight newer topics that changed each time the cache refreshed.

Has the community enhancement for Mapbox been put on the back burner or abandoned? I was able to create an API key using the default options but noticed that the link for Learn More in AdminCP takes you to a broken 404 page... https://remoteservices.invisionpower.com/docs/mapboxmaps/?version=103039 The maps looked really good but at the time it was made available in IPS but I recall there were limitations compared to GoogleMaps such as no geocoding or places API support which they now seem to have (as well as cool sounding features like Retina maps!) Looking briefly at the documention at Mapbox, it looks like they may now have embedable maps too.

Sometime we ask for if good idea changing traditional topic thread to level of replies under replies, like Facebook, some guys yes and anothers no, but I thing the change should come from our needs. This time I use topic mode to discuss many projects in my forums, and I really feel the traditional threat topic can be improved a little more. I n my case I ask for editor feature added in like system, so not only show an icon, can be added a short message that is a reply of what reply reading... But the characters length shoul be limited for short message purpose. Why? Because not all replies are maked for the first post, many times we are giving a reply for othe…

I must say that the calendar is one of the most valuable component of this board and we totally adore and love. In an organization such ours, it became a primary tool in the line of delivering our products and services, everyone is referring to it, cross checking with it, and acts as an archive for all the work done around that event. That's been said, it would step a step toward perfection if three things were there: 1. a yearly calendar, next to [ Month | Week | Day | Event Stream ] to have Year, and when it is clicked on, it shows something like: 2. The event title to be multi-lingual enabled; meaning I can add its value in more than one language, …

As Administrator turn off all notifications for a member for past/future subscription I have tried to remove a member past/future notifications, but did not know how... Then I contact IPB and they told me there is no option in ACP to do this whole thing.... They told me I have to first remove future notifications on ACP under members/search member name/ under member name edit preferences/notifications tab/ remove all notifications THEN I have to login as member and remove past notification subscription.... This is a lot of work.... Would you please add an option in ACP that we can remove a member all notifications (past/future)???? Thanks

Please consider adding a product setting that allows/disallows medium and smaller images to be uploaded after purchase, if for instance you are trying to sell only a specific size banner and only want one instance to be uploaded.

Ok... just a hypothetical question... IPS probably has a complete range of types of forums with thousands of categories.... What if IPS decided to compete with Reddit? Reddit forums are almost at the top of the Internet most trafficked sites in the world. What if all of our sites became part of a massive IPS "Community" where we could all keep our own sites, styles ... ownership and monetization... yet be in some sort of larger IPS Forum community like Reddit? Would we have enough traffic to feedback loop and generate even MORE traffic from that? Your thoughts.

Can we allow clubs to have an option where even public clubs show and allow members to join. Clubs is a great add-on, but if for example you are creating fan pages where you want members to join their favourite clubs (example football teams) but still allow other fans to comment, you lose the member feature. Example: You support Manchester United - so you join it as a member and join the list of all other Man Utd fans Your rival is Liverpool, they won't want to join as a member (fan), but still would be able to post in that club for a bit of friendly banter between rivals. Something like this would be useful for any site that would utilise clubs for thi…

Hi, any chance that the workflow when dealing with reports can be cleaned up on the next release. The main bugbear is when hiding posts in that the system takes you out of the report and to the hidden post when you've done it which serves no real purpose other than to add 2 more steps to go back into the report and mark it as complete.

I love that IPB includes downloads as an application and it links nicely with commerce. It's what makes IPB stand out verses others in my opinion. I need downloads to monitize my site. I have to say though, downloads feels like it was an afterthought. Like it was designed from the ground up to do what it does here on THIS site and nothing else. Then someone thought, lets sell this as an app. Then it was thrown in as an optional package for the customers. It doesn't seem to have the polish that some of the other apps do. Not trying to be rude or ungrateful, I do appreciate what it is. I just feel like it's not very robust, customizable, missing good stats,…

PROBLEM: imageproxy is great but doesn't work well for those of us who use small image thumbnails. Normal attachment images can be setup to work well with thumbnails allowing small images to appear in the post that users then click on to enlarge. However, imageproxy cannot work under these conditions because unlike normal attachments it won't save 2 sizes.. it only saves the initial size (which is the size of the thumbnail.) and looks terrible in the post. You can drag the little line to resize it but no matter what it's going to look badly. resizing it in the post from small to large makes the image useless. SOLUTION: I suggest imageproxy…

Dear @Lindy FYI as feedback... I have been paying renewals for unused Pages and Forums add-ons on 1 of my 4 IPS community suites/4 websites for some time, wondering what to do with them. All my licences are in good standing. I put in a low priority ticket to Sales to ask if the Pages app could be transferred to 1 of my other licenses, to effectively complete that suite and leave the remaining suite with only Forums and Gallery. I was told it is not possible to transfer add-on apps between community suite licences. This is no criticism of the ticket respondent who was very helpful, but I think this is disappointing company policy. As a custome…

I highly dislike the fact that I can not choose what my members have to tell me in the billing information area. I can not remove the preset fields. If anyone is confused, I am talking about the First name, Last name, Billing address, etc.... I don't want to or need to know this information about my customers as they are subscribing to VIP Features and software downloads on my website. PLEASE make it possible to customize this, or at least skip that step. You claim to be highly customizeable, I beg to differ.

I don't see much point to listing a forum redirect in the fluid view filter, unless someone can tell me otherwise. It would be good to have an option to not show these in the block, it's pointless if they'll never show topics.
