Invision Community 5.1: Achievements and Tagging updates

Matt · October 1Oct 1

If you run a busy community, you'll know how important Achievements and tagging are to encourage member activity and to keep a large amount of content organised. We've had a lot of feedback on two areas. First, some members quickly worked out that they could boost their points by repeating the same action over and over, like liking post after post. Second, the tagging system we rebuilt in Invision Community 5.0 keeps your tag list focused and tidy, but it needed more flexibility. Some tags shoul

Invision Community 5.1: What's new in Courses

Matt · September 25Sep 25

Courses have been part of Invision Community since 2023, giving communities a way to run structured learning with sequential modules and lessons, quizzes, required courses for specific groups, and paid courses through Commerce. In Invision Community 5.1, Courses get many new features and improvements that turn it into a proper learning space. Courses can now be organised into categories and run entirely from the front end; each course can have its own discussion forum and files; members can leav

Invision Community 5.1: Tease premium content with limited content views

Matt · September 22Sep 22

If your community has content worth paying for, such as in-depth articles, expert answers or a knowledge base you've spent years building, you've probably wondered how much of it to give away. The trouble is that there's no easy middle ground. Make it all free and members have little reason to upgrade. Hide it behind a subscription, and they never get to see what they'd be paying for. News publishers have used a simple answer for years. They let readers open a set number of articles before askin

Ehren · August 12Aug 12

Invision Community 5.1 brings a wide range of improvements to the user interface, with a particular focus on performance, accessibility, and usability. We’ve modernized many of our existing components, reduced our reliance on third-party JavaScript, and made dozens of small refinements that make the overall experience feel faster and more intuitive. Here are some of the highlights. Better performance Performance has been a major focus of 5.1. We’ve upgraded jQuery to version 4 and have removed s

Invision Community 5.1: Nurture your members with email drip campaigns

Matt · July 20Jul 20

When someone registers, finishes a course, RSVPs to an event, or buys their first subscription, there's a short window when a well-timed email can make all the difference, such as a welcome, a next step, or a nudge towards the parts of your community they'd actually enjoy. The trouble is that these moments happen constantly, at all hours, for every member on their own timeline. Following up on each one by hand doesn't scale, so most of them go unanswered. Email Drip Campaigns solve that problem.
