User won't be able to apply if the position doesn't exist! In your case, it exists and it calls WELCOMER. Disable it, as you did, will only make it to be not available to new positions when creating open positions.

If you want disallow people from applying, just lock the open position.

ok thank you

100% understood

 

and for anyone else............... I can confirm the latest update makes app work 100%

 

Thanks @Adriano Faria

Hey Adriano,

I have a small question or feature suggestion.
For each position you can enter a description of what this position is about. This description has it's styling in the detailed view while it has just a plain text description in the overview of all positions (which you can expand).

Detailed view

Overview (plain text)

Would it be possible or would it be a good idea to have an additional and short "teaser" text where you enter just a short description, which is displayed while viewing all positions as all the markdown / styling like lists is lost in the overview. When viewing one position in particular we could then use the more detailed text with lists and styling like bold or italic text and links, etc.

Best regards,
Phil

Hey @Adriano Faria I am not sure if my post slipped through. Any thoughts about a teaser text?

Thanks in advance 🙂

Yeah, I can add this in next version, no ETA yet. I will wait a few weeks to see if something comes up.... then I'll add it.

Perfect, thanks Adriano. This is not urgent so waiting is perfectly fine 🙂

Hi Adriano, 

If from the Staff Applications page I select "read more" I get this unformatted mess:

When the real page, if the position title hyperlink is clicked instead, I get what it should look like:

Is it possible to format the content in the Read More drop down?

 

Thanks

That’s how it is in all other apps, including official. Anyway, take a read a in a few posts above yours. A new feature (teaser text) will be added in next version.

Is it something i did or not doing that stopped the images from showing up on the front end of the application?

even when you click edit, and look where you uploaded the image, it will show a 0 and no images, but the file name

The welcomer was the first app i did month ago, and the image shows

but even on that one, when you click edit, the image is gone, and 0 B and the file name shows

[Adriano Faria]

I used this app last week in this version and I remember the image being displayed. Anyway, I’ll retest it in a couple of hours and will let you know.

All fine here. See:

 

 

 

Files  in the uploads folder:

 

Then I manually delete both files and I got what you got:

 

So you probably deleted the image via FTP.

[Fierce God]

lol, i am on cloud, we dont have access to FTP

Well, the image isn't there. I could easily reproduce. It's enough to edit the position and upload another one, anyway.

did three times, still same results

 

i even deleted the applications, redid them, and still same result

im guessing i may have to delete app

 

then reinstall it

did the disable thing one by one, then enabled one by one, and still get same results

 

so i may just have to start over.......only had three apps, so shouldn't be that hard

[Adriano Faria]

I'm not sure what to tell you. Does it happen in any other place (another upload field)? I just installed this in the board you have access and it's ok there too. Check it out.

Not sure if CiC has access to Storage Settings. Try: ACP -> System tab -> Files -> Storage Settings and find Applications Images;

Path should be the same from others.

[Fierce God]

@Adriano Faria 

this?

 

the other option is that CiC thing you were talking about......but i havent messed with this setting and actually forgot about this since back in 2017, lol

 

so is it still on me? or do i need to contact IPS support? or uninstall - reinstall?

[Adriano Faria]

Yes, is it like all the rest? Are they all the same? You purchased it on March 27. Does it happened before or started now from out of nowhere? Can you reproduce this in any other upload field across your site? Took a look in the storage extension from the app and it seems ok to me.

If you don't have records to lose or don't mind with it for now, I would suggest to uninstall the app and then reinstall. If it insists, then probably submit a ticket; they will probably send you back to me if it happens only in this 3rd-party resource, then I'll try to reach some IPS dev to help.

 

[Fierce God]

ok thank you!! and will do

[Fierce God]

After reinstall it's back loading images for me

 

weird, but yea it works perfect like before

 

thanks for your help @Adriano Faria

[Adriano Faria]

Not sure what happened there. Sorry. 

[Fierce God]

all good, had to be me, 

 

just glad it worked, such a awesome app!!

review time.

Is there a way a CiC user can change the url to   /apply    for this?

No, as you need to edit a .json file and reupload.
