Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted June 24, 20231 yr As it makes no sense to start using the “Support” app built into Invision Community Suite as it will be deprecated soon, I went ahead and disabled the app. Unfortunately, it doesn’t fully disable the app after all as you can see below. If you disable “Support”: “Support” related tasks continue to get run daily: supportAssignedReminderSends a reminder email to staff members who have open support requests assigned to them. supportAutoresolveMarks old support requests as resolved. “Support” still shows up in the Menu Manager:

You could for example have the front end module disabled but use POP3/IMAP integration where the Support desk still needs to function in the AdminCP.

I will leave it "enabled" and remove it from the front menu as I won't be using it as it's being deprecated.
