  • Alpha testing has been underway for a while, and we're not far from beta now.

  • To be clear, Invision Community 5.1 will be coming to Invision Community Classic (aka "self hosted"). Just like with v5, the first alpha releases are not thoroughly tested for upgrades, so the safest

    We need full template edits like v4. v5 is a regression when it comes to customization.

What sort of thing are you after?

For example, in the Forum Index Feed, I'm missing an option to set the number of displayed topics.

Please please please consider letting us replace/remove without having to use css/js (albeit my experience in v5 is still limited)

I Hope Please GIF

interested!

Would like to test new event functions.

I have a staycation coming up so I'd like to kick the tires of 5.1

ah yeah, I see... or don't :)

Excited for this, but Alpha testing seems premature when there are still 81 more releases to get there.

@Matt It would be great if version 5.1 offered more template customization options. For example, here there is a large empty space, and it would be useful to have the ability to fill it with recent topics or have it automatically adjust to the height of the forum section.

You would be best posting this in the feedback section rather than here. Spec for 5.1 is likely fairly tight now, so I would suspect unlikely for that release.

Ok, alternatively, add an option to hide subforums from being displayed on the homepage.

Can certainly see what you are getting at there, when you have quite a few sub-forums

Failing an option for this appearing from Invision, adding this should work:

div.ipsData__main ul.ipsSubList {
	display: none;
}

Or if if you need to target specific forums, use this:

[data-forumid="1"] ul.ipsSubList,
[data-forumid="3"] ul.ipsSubList,
[data-forumid="6"] ul.ipsSubList {
	display: none;
}

Edit the forumids to match the parent, containing forums.

We'll aim to get going within the next few weeks.

Have you made any progress on this? Or perhaps I simply wasn't chosen. ;)

@Ehren, are you planning on making any changes to profile page design in 5.1?

Nope, no plans for 5.1. The main focus was performance with a slight UI polish. Design tweaks for different areas of the software will likely come in future 5.x updates, so if there’s anything in particular with the profile page that you think needs updating, feel free to post your feedback 🤝
