Noni Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 It's a perfect app. However, what happens when there are too many picks? A load more button should exist... to lighten up the loading time of the page. I also suggested other possible improvements here:

A load more button should exist... to lighten up the loading time of the page. I also suggested other possible improvements here: There's a pagination, just like on the original picks page. Thanks, that's a nice list, we'll see what else we'll add to this. Edited August 1, 2017 by Fosters BomAle 1
Noni Posted August 1, 2017 Posted August 1, 2017 How do you set the pagination? I haven't reached that yet and i've loaded multiple articles already https://pro-bike.ro/forums/ourpicks/

If you don't mind, I'd like to take a screenshot as a featured example for everyone. Nice job with the wide photos and descriptive text. Edited August 2, 2017 by Fosters
cafeboricua Posted August 2, 2017 Posted August 2, 2017 Is there a way I can edit or customize the picks?
Fosters Posted August 3, 2017 Author Posted August 3, 2017 9 hours ago, cafeboricua said: Is there a way I can edit or customize the picks? Hi @cafeboricua This plugin uses the native Our Picks, which means any feature is stock. We don't change or modify any of the features. As far as I can tell, you cannot edit or customize the promoted content in Our Picks once you publish. However, I'm sure IPS would appreciate your suggestion in Feedback OptimusBain and Fierce God 2
Fosters Posted November 5, 2017 Author Posted November 5, 2017 (edited) @buddylove what isn’t working for you? Is the page not shown? Have you configured the app/set it as default? Edited November 5, 2017 by Fosters
Square Wheels Posted November 5, 2017 Posted November 5, 2017 This looks a lot better than the stock version, hopefully IPS will improve theirs.

I seriously doubt this application crashes your forum. I’m guessing right now your forum is probably set as default so it loads when someone goes to your site. When you set this as default this will be what people see first sorta like a landing page but I’m sure your forums are still working you’ll just need to add /forums/ to the end of your domain name and there will also be a link in the navigation that says Forum probably under the Browse heading.
Pedro Ibáñez Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 Hi again Fosters! I'm interested in this application because I just want to do a home page with our picks, but I don't understand exactly what this plugin does. What is the difference between this plugin and the normal our picks page?

What is the difference between this plugin and the normal our picks page? This plugin makes Our Picks the homepage. That's it. Otherwise, Our Picks is a normal page like Leaderboard, Staff, Activity Strrams and usually communities have a different homepage like forums. Edited November 16, 2017 by Joel R
Pedro Ibáñez Posted November 16, 2017 Posted November 16, 2017 Hi Joel! Our picks can't be set as home page without this plugin?
Fosters Posted November 17, 2017 Author Posted November 17, 2017 It wasn't possible to set our picks as homepage as they introduced the feature.

Square Wheels Posted November 24, 2017 Posted November 24, 2017 Ugh, I saw the screenshot about and thought this app stylized the Our Picks to make them look more appealing, I didn't realize all it did was set the default app to our picks. I clearly need to read more closely.

Fosters Posted November 25, 2017 Author Posted November 25, 2017 This app was created while it wasn't possible to use our picks as homepage, it's probably useless now, BUT we've been working hard the 2 days to enhance it, to give the people which bought this app some new features! More information TBA

More information TBA It may be just my installation but I did have a problem when I tried the native IPS way. I would set up Our Picks as the home page, yet if I clicked on the forum's logo or the Home link, Our Picks wouldn't show the photos, only the text. However, this app has worked as intended and I don't have the same problem with it. So, not quite obsolete yet. (Not sure if I'll have Our Picks as the home page, but I'm just testing at the moment).

Fosters Posted November 30, 2017 Author Posted November 30, 2017 New release available:) . We have also changed the app name because this is the first of many releases which are going to enhance the Our Picks Page... WE love our clients and supporters, so we have decided to included the new features into this app instead of releasing and selling them as new apps.
Virgo81 Posted December 1, 2017 Posted December 1, 2017 how do you need to put the status on our pick?
Fosters Posted December 2, 2017 Author Posted December 2, 2017 IPS4 doesn't support promotion of status posts.
Fosters Posted December 6, 2017 Author Posted December 6, 2017 Fosters Crew is pleased to present the newest version of Our Picks Improvement v1.1.0, available immediately in the IPS Marketplace for download. In addition to setting Our Picks as the homepage, we've now included advanced filtering to quickly sort through different content types. Sort by Articles Sort by Topics and more!
