Olivia Clark Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 ☀️ Welcome to this week's Invision Community Insight! ☀️ Thank you for checking out this quick, round up post. It's hard to believe that we are entering into a new month! I hope your week as been pleasant. Current Happenings The August release will be ready late this month just as it was in July. A few of you have asked about Spam improvements. Those will be in an upcoming release ... August if we are lucky. 🤞 Our update is brief again this week. Version 5 has been a big focus for our team so far this year and we are making great progress! We will begin sharing non-technical updates soon and once we do, I'll share those here. Changelog With that said, changes for version 4 are limited for now but for those that like to see what we are up to line by line, here is the changelog for the week for version 4. Quote Core: - Fixed an issue with ACP notifications for PII & Deletion requests. Forums: - Fixed an issue where a redundant message may show when a closed topic is archived. Cloud: - Fixed an issue where live topic creation fails if the Events app is disabled. Gary, Marc Stridgen, Miss_B and 2 others 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlexJ Posted August 4, 2023 Share Posted August 4, 2023 It would be nice to have some option to delete spam members in bulk. This one by one is pain! More like once user profile is selected as spam, auto delete post and profile after XX days. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And phone number parsing is easy enough. As bad or not bad as it may, you are probably not targeted directly. When you get ID'd as a primary target for a spam campaign due to the content your site puts out (niche, whatever); that's when it gets fun (for some values of...)

Still the most prevalent for me, and I don't get notified, they have no approval process, etc. I was just looking today to see if there was some way to curb "About Me" spam… Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
