Maybe its something obvious, but I am missing it. In IP.Content when you create a feed block you had a list of variables you can use for that feed. Is there such thing in Pages? What I am trying to do is get the gps coordinates of a geotagged pictures in Gallery. It was easily doable in IP.Content, but I cannot see how to do it in Pages.

I have Contact Us set to create a support request. Most departments are set up in Commerce to allow submissions. It appears that I may select only one of the available departments set up in Commerce to receive it. For the department selected I have "submission text" defined but when using the form as either member or Guest I never see the text. I feel I must have missed a setup step or two How/when is the submission text meant to display? Ideally I could also force the user to choose a department so that department-specific submission text would be shown; however form displays no select option. It's just message area, contact info, and bot verification. Is th…

I have a few questions that are probably easy to answer: How is the query for whether a user is logged in or not? I would like to place something directly in the template - depending on whether the user is logged in or not. How can I get the 1st post? Reason: If 1st post, then an ad should be inserted under it. I would like to insert an ad (under the function custom locations) directly after the first post of a topic and on the following pages after the first post, taking into account the responsive css classes: <div class='ipsResponsive_showDesktop ipsResponsive_block'> This element will *only* show on desktop sizes, and will render as a block-…

I have looked and cannot figure out how to allow guests to view the items (actual physical products) I have for sale in the commerce package. It appears that if the guests can view it, they can also add it to their cart? Is there a way to allow them to ONLY view the items and not process it for purchase? I only want the items available to registered users for purchasing, but allow guests to see them also.

How do I clear the slate on an renewing package we used to use for annual dues (which must be paid during a certain time of year). Our club's first attempt at using Commerce (nexus at the time) for dues went reasonably well but we made a miscalculation: we set the package up to renew annually. That turned out to be a mistake because the next year some members just purchased another Dues package earlier than their renewal invoice was generated. Then the automated reminder panics them that either they are being charged twice or that somehow their most recent purchase didn't take. I originally allowed only one package per user to prevent this but that drew immedia…

We have a marketplace similar to the IPS marketplace where members upload files and sell them to other members. We take a percentage of each transaction. How do members get detailed information about the numbers of files they have sold and the revenue from each sale and amount of credit they have based on total sales? Basically a detailed sales report. I do not see an easy way to display all this one page. There is a menu item for account credit but this just lists the overall credit from sales, no other details are provided.
