After the upgrade form 3.4.9 to 4.1.11 my mods complain that they get notifed if a user reports a post independend of the forums the mod is responsible for. Has anyone an idea how to change this so that the mods are notified for their forums only?

When publishing an announcement on the forums which contain hyperlinks it appears that after publishing the hyperlinks are being automatically removed - which is hindering the functionality of the announcement. Since I have been advised by the helpdesk that this is intentional - I would like to ask it it is really something we want to have. Announcements without the links directing to particular chapters of the forum is only half-useful.

Hello, It would be appreicated if you put some thought into making the subofums stand out on the board index. They are hardly noticable. The other day I noticed next to one of my subforums it had a marker next to it which made it stand out and I thought oh that looks so much better. Then I noticed my other subforums didn't have this marker but then realised it was because there were new replies to read in the subforum with a marker. I feel it would be a great addition to have some kind of permanent marker next to subforums so we all know they are there for members to visit or join your community and miss these little subforums.

Screenshot from my phone: The blank white icon is this site. Next to it is my own 4.x site with icons manually created and linked through the global template. I am suggesting that in the theme settings, where the site logo and sharer image are uploaded, a section gets added to allow the upload of a mobile icon image, which is then automatically scaled to different sizes and added to the site header.

I can see that the number of RSS items generated for a forum / activity stream is 25 by default. I feel there should be an option to set this number to whatever we want (lets say 50 / 100). But I cant find this option configurable anywhere. Did I miss something ? Is there anyway I can change this to generate 100 RSS items by default. (even source code change is fine) Also, RSS feed should give us option to configure whether <Description> should be displayed or <Summary> should be displayed. This is very important for sending emails thru Feedburner. If there is only <Summary> displayed, people come back to your site to read …

On 3.4 the top of the forum bar and sidebar are lined up. On 4, they are misaligned, and the Forums text is not needed (it's in the breadcrumb and no other app has this text). becomes (Also those heights are slightly off.) Categories are fine but the main page should look clean.

I run a large forum with many sub-forums and many moderators. Each sub-forum (for the most part) gets a different moderator and rarely does a moderator for one sub-forum have access to the others (this would be reserved for a global moderator). Currently I must modify the permissions for each individual moderator because of how things are coded in the ACP. I can't rely on the group permissions for moderator. The forum software assumes that I have a very simple setup where applying a moderator group or a small handful of moderator groups will apply to all or most of the forums and sub-forums. This may apply to some sites, but it definitely doesn't apply to all sites. A …

It would be nice when export users from Members section that you could also have it where any plugins that reference the profile tab and have custom fields that it would be able to export those as well.

Hi There, When choosing a product to purchase at registration, it seems to be mandatory to collect clients billing information. Is there a way (or code) to remove this? I don't need my clients personal information as I sell digital goods. I've had plenty of complaints about this. Thanks.

Hello, When I validate new members to our forum it is very helpful to know what country the new user's IP address originates from. Right now I have to use a separate website to plug in the IP address of each new user to get that information. It would be very helpful if in some future update that when you click on a member's IP address, that it include the country or even the country and city that the IP address originates from. Thank you.

Hi all, Is it possible to add the ability to bypass the word filter based on forum as opposed to member group? I asked for 2 reasons. 1. We leverage the word filter across the forum with the exception of an adult content forum which allows otherwise inappropriate language. By setting bypass capabilities per user group, this allows users the opportunity to use bad language anywhere in the community and not just the adult forum. 2. All adults, by group, are permitted access to this forum, but not all adults appreciate this language. When users hen view someone's activity, they can see/read this content. Hopefully that makes sense and has not already bee…

So I'm working on a re-brand of my site and with that re-brand I'm also color coding my sites assets. Green for the forum, Blue for the Guides, Red for the Gallery etc but I've hit a wall with this. For apps that aren't a pages database, there is no identifier to differentiate between them for the embed. For a database it adds this to the body tag (note it does this on the page itself as well): .cCmsDatabase_databasename Which makes it very simply to color code the embed. It would be appreciated if a similar method was used for the standard apps, not just for this case but also for consistency.

I have seen this feature on reddit forums and some other programs. What it is a usually an option so that when an Admin or Moderator or any usergroup (or member) is designated with the option any thread they start or post they make triggers a different color in the post window or title or some such thing. It also sets a distinct color in the sidebar block for new posts or threads so that members can identify quickly that an Admin or Moderator has contributed content. Is this sort of thing possible with Invision? Or, is it something to be more likely provided for from with in a theme? Here is an image of what reddit does. I have blurred out some of the conten…

IMO, one of the most important things in forums UX is let new visitors post their questions as fast and as easy as possible (while still forcing them to register, otherwise they will forever be guests). Right now if guests visit a specific forum and wants to post their question - they simply can't do that. They have no button to start a new topic. This is very confusing for people who are not used to internet forums, because they just have no "new topic" button - and it looks to them like a bug because there is nothing that tells them why it's missing and how they are suppose to post their question! (I know I can add an announcement for guests and explain this, b…

I think it would be a great idea to use the "Page name" instead of the word "Records" as the page title for databases that do not use the category system.

As per title, sparkpost by default converts/tracks any links in the emails you send out unless you specifically disable it in the API request. But there is no setting in the suite to disable it and thus we are all forced to track links even if we don't want to. Bug report made on this issue (yeah, it is an issue and not feedback imo):

We definitely need the option to reset all members' passwords from ACP. This may be useful in case the comunity was compromised due to the next security bug. Each password should be changed to an arbitrary one. And the user will receive notification via Email to login via the special link where he will be offered to enter the new password. This option should be available to the user id 1 only. It may be also protected on the files level. For example, if special file is absent in the site folder, then this option will not work.

I haven't understood what the reason was behind not making some aspects of the design touch based. For example, why not make the carousal slider's used throughout the applications such as the downloads, gallery or e-Commerence touch based?

Who's Online 64 Members, 9 Anonymous, 96 Guests (See full list) So the little thingie as is shows members, anonymous users, and guests. Why not make it list the number of staff as well? Admins could define which groups qualify as staff, or even just not and leave it disabled. Maybe even take it a step further- for example I'd like "Donors" too, and to set groups for that. Maybe let us define our own to, etc.

I think it'd be nice if admins could choose either 1) have the log in / register drop down or 2) have the login form actually in-line in the header. 2 being like the Facebook image above.

Just like pre-set warning reasons, since there is no more "soft-delete" I want to turn off delete for mods, and use hide. But then I want to be able to filter these results in modcp by hide reason so I can delete the garbage. So when hiding mods could choose... Hide reason: For Deletion (for duplicates and all posts for deletion) Violation Preservation (do not delete) Other ______ Whatever they may be, admins set the reasons in acp and the ability to add a custom reason would still exist.

I bumped a topic in "IPB 3.4 and below" about this before realizing it was a few years old...sorry Anyway....I have a research-oriented site and would love LOVE it if there were some way to create footnotes in database articles and pages, via BBCode or some other way, in a way similar to what you can now get natively in MediaWiki. That would pretty much make IPB my one-stop research tool!

Here's something that really helps guide forum members through the process of setting up their account better. Buttons with links that guide new members with uploading their avatar, creating their first post, creating their signature, etc. and even includes a progress bar. This is an excellent way for new members to become better engaged in the community and it's a fun process and less frustrating experience. While not a new idea, it's nice to have this message added to the bottom of a new member's first post. It highlights the obvious. . . On the sidebar profile, these fields better illustrate how the member interacts with the community and creat…
