Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
May 14, 20195 yr Author It depends on where you want to hide. Author shows up everywhere: index, category view, link view, categories, search results, etc. It doesn’t make much sense hide it, really. It’s like want to hide topic author. 🤷🏻♂️
May 14, 20195 yr I see what you mean, and you're right. However, it looks wrong to have the same author on hundreds of links. If I'm populating 50% of the database, that puts me as the author. I think the option to have it as an impersonal, objective, directory would be a great addition.
May 14, 20195 yr Author ...or you can change the authorship by clicking in a link next to author name/link.
May 14, 20195 yr Agreed. Saw that. I might just create a 'neutral' user that just does links. Obviously, if the real link owner joins the site, then I would put him/her. Not sure it's worth your while to do it my way, but if you ever do, great. Otherwise, for now... BTW, miniature.io is not being nice to me. Now trying screenshotmachine... let's see.

Support is provided only for 4.1.X onwards: Quote Upgrade tested only from versions 4.1.1 and 4.1.0. So if you're using an older version, update to 4.1.X first. I suggest you to try in a test board first. Do not try in your live board.
May 21, 20195 yr On the image does it have to be an image of the site? Or can members upload their own pic for a cover pic or thumbnail?

You can upload your own image. You can either change the setting to use an upload field or leave it capture the screenshot (using any image provider available) and go to the Link Actions menu and choose the Upload Image option to replace the capture.

Awesome thanks for the quick reply!

May 24, 20195 yr Hi Adriano. Not sure if you can help. I've selected screenshotmachine for my links. It was working fine. All of a sudden I'm getting their invalid hash image. I still have a free account with them so I can't get support. Have you seen this before? As for the hash, not sure where to enter it on our end. All I can input on our end is the Customer Key. Thanks!

Tried posting an additional/new link as well as refreshing the old ones, and still nothing. I did try directly on screenshotmachine - using their onsite screenshot generator - and there it works, so their own site is still functional. Thanks again!
May 27, 20195 yr Author No. I have my own schedule. Was working in one app. Now I'm working on Invite then on this. User another. You have 3 or 4 options there!

I'm using FREE and works fine: I'm using FREE and my account doesn't even has a "hash" code:
May 27, 20195 yr Hi. Using Free. I saw that too, no hash code and yet that's the image that comes up. Bizarrely, yesterday for about one hour or so, one of the links worked and then it disappeared again. I checked and I still have 95 screenshots left on the free account, so that's not the problem either. Hmm. Not sure what to debug next? Thinking... Edited May 27, 20195 yr by Giray

Send a PM with your key and a couple of URLs from your records. Let me test them.

May 28, 20195 yr Found the problem. If you are using Screenshotmachine with a free account, if they do not ask you to put one, do not put in a secret phrase! I removed it, added two new links, and now it's working! I'm not sure if it will refresh the old links, however. I think I have to delete and replace each one. But now it's working like a charm. Edit Did not have to replace. Just deleted the secret key and then the browser cache and I'm good. Thanks for looking in to it Adriano. Edited May 28, 20195 yr by Giray

I removed it Not sure what you’re talking about. Secret phrase isn’t even requested in the app settings: and I don’t have it in my account. Screenshotmachine requires a CUSTOMER KEY as I showed here: On 5/27/2019 at 6:14 PM, Adriano Faria said: Anyway, if it works for you then it it’s ok to me. 👍
May 28, 20195 yr Agreed. There is no place to put a secret phrase in your application. There is, however, a place to put it in on the Screenshotmachine site. All I am telling people is to be careful not to put one in there. If they do, like I did, then they will get an error. Your application is not the problem, it's just a matter of knowing what to do, and I did not.
June 4, 20195 yr Guest permissions ignored? I (admin) can see the Links Directory, but the guest sees a 404-error. In the settings everything is included.
