Invision Community 5: A video walkthrough creating a custom theme and homepage By Matt Thursday at 04:02 PM
bradl Posted January 12, 2020 Posted January 12, 2020 Possible Feature Request: Move entry. Whenever I have two contests running at the same time (for example, one monthly, one year-long) one or more folks inevitably upload their entry to the wrong contest and then ask if I can move it. Moving an entry would be a handy mod action. Andy Millne 1
ahc Posted February 7, 2020 Posted February 7, 2020 @Andy Millne Couple Questions/Suggestions 1) It was suggested a while ago for the option to allow anonymous entries. Is this something on the list or are you not interested? 2) Is there a way for us to add custom fields to the entry submission form? If not, I'd like to suggest that as well for the purpose of requesting credit for all resources used in the entries when applicable. bradl 1
Kjell Iver Johansen Posted February 11, 2020 Posted February 11, 2020 Is it possible to have entries/voting and whatever happening in a contest into the activity stream? Have I missed a setting somewhere?

These aren't currently features but are great suggestions I've added to my list for consideration for 1.4 5 hours ago, Kjell Iver Johansen said: Is it possible to have entries/voting and whatever happening in a contest into the activity stream? Have I missed a setting somewhere? Entries already appear in activity streams the same as all content items, topics, gallery images etc. Votes are an additional activity stream setting configured in the admin control panel default activity stream settings. It's a little tucked away in there behind a button. Kjell Iver Johansen 1

I’m not aware of an existing 3rd party French translation but the app can be translated the same as official apps. Admin control panel > customisation > languages
Selor Posted February 12, 2020 Posted February 12, 2020 ok Thanks .. interesting to have a French Trad of all the terms in future installs ..

Just to decide if it is worth waiting out of I would install right away 🙂
Square Wheels Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Hmm, seems I am not smart enough to figure this out. I installed and it created the first competition for Mar 2020. When I view it on the site, there are no competitions pending. How do I post a pic?

I deleted the one that was automatically created and added a new one. It works now. The time fields seem a little too small, AM and PM are cut off.

You need to set permissions in the scheduler settings too otherwise new competitions will be added with blank permissions.

Square Wheels Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 Can you subscribe to a competition? I'd like to know when new pics are posted so that I can vote.
Kjell Iver Johansen Posted March 29, 2020 Posted March 29, 2020 I have a feature request. Is it possible to have a "Next image" button, so that we can swipe through each image in a competition? crmarks 1
JustHatched Posted March 30, 2020 Posted March 30, 2020 @Andy Millne, I have been eyeing this for a bit, decided to get it and when trying to install I get this error Row size too large. The maximum row size for the used table type, not counting BLOBs, is 8126. This includes storage overhead, check the manual. You have to change some columns to TEXT or BLOBs

Claudia999 Posted April 1, 2020 Posted April 1, 2020 Hi @Andy Millne yesterday we saw a problem with automated start of competition for this month. Permissions were set right, start date was set right. Nevertheless, users could have uploaded pictures before the start. In previous months we didn't have this problem. Do you have an idea what could be the problem?

How much earlier could they enter? Perhaps this was a daylight savings change issue.

Sorry I missed this. I don't currently have a public release date for 1.4. It's coming along nicely but there have been some good suggestions here and I would like to squeeze a few more in. crmarks and jesuralem 2

You said that users could enter before the start of the competition. What date and time did you set as the start of the competition and when were they able to enter? If you would like to send me a pm I can investigate this further without cluttering up this topic. Thanks

Thanks We set as start 00:00 at 01.04.2020, and users could enter immediately after setup, and this was yesterday at 5pm. But I'll send a pm 🙂
