    Thanks for the feedback everyone. I will be working on auto IP geolocation support and opt-in/opt-out settings this weekend. 

  • I've played around with the new release of Connections and, like others above, I would rather be more aggressive on the location-sharingto have it auto-suggested and auto-enabled by default.   So

Hi,

I see this says - Requires Invision Community 4.5 or higher

When is 4.5 being released and was that requirement for the single feature or the whole app?

Thanks

The single feature. It will be automatically activated once 4.5 is available. There isn't a release date announced for 4.5 yet but the latest news is in the blog

Just curious, how will you suggest members on "Shared interests?"  

 

Suggestions:

1. I'd love to see a block that can be both inline to posts (eg. similar to Facebook as you scroll; after X posts) and a normal block for the hot zones.  The one that's inline to posts / gallery images / comments is especially important for mobile.  

2.  Notification for other friends online (eg. "You have 5 friends online including bfarber, Daniel F, and three more").

3.  Please add usermenu link 

4. [Bug] I have 2 connections with myself?  

5.  When it says I have no connections with a member, invite to follow member.  

6. Menu Manager - has no configuration

I have two plans, try and compare members that follow the same items. This could be a non starter for performance reasons though so if that is the case I will fall back to the site admin being able to configure a predefined list of subjects that members can choose from.

I can't reproduce this. Are you not scrolling to the top of the page after selecting perhaps? That's an IPS4 thing.

7.  Connections page - I like "People You May Know" more than the random and new member suggestions, it's much more useful.

Yeah I agree. I’m thinking this will make a good widget.

This looks awesome, but give us 4.5 already!!!  I'mma hold off on purchasing until then.

This looks really good. When do you anticipate to have geographic location and how will you incorporate that? Woud be nice to have some sort of IP matching behind the scenes. Would also be great if you could get it working with

 

Very interested in this. Does it have any connection to points (Members Shop)? 

For example, if two members connect with one another, they earn X points.

100% agreed.

Also, I had to guess the page link. Which I did 

https://www.breatheheavy.com/exhale/index.php?app=connections

Where is that page located in the admin section? When I add it to the navigation, do I include this as an external link and link it that way? 

Anyway, excited to watch how this app unfolds. I think it's super important. 

Don't mind me if I come back continually throughout the week with questions and suggestions 🙂

This is a bug. The menu item should have been added automatically. I've fixed this and uploaded a new build of 1.0.2. If you re-download, uninstall and re-install using the new 1.0.2 file this should be fixed for you.

Sweet! I'll add do this this morning. 

Wondering if you had any insight on incorporating the Member Shop Points into this at all or nah? 

Basically, rules that reward members points for following others and for getting followed.

When it’s ready 🙂.  I’ve implemented geolocation on a few projects so I’m not expecting any roadblocks. Shouldn’t be long especially if we remain under weekend lockdown.

I don’t have any current plans to integrate with member shop points but never say never.  Maybe once I’m through my list of planned features I’ll revisit. Thanks for the suggestion in any case. 

Thats the plugin of the year !

Yes me to. Ready to purchase when location is available

Would love to see this include a way to follow members straight from the profile hover overview (versus going to their profile).

I thought no apps nor addons were supported on the mobile app, how is that?

The mobile app falls back into a responsive view with pages that aren’t natively supported. The experience is seamless for the end user.
