InvisionHQ 4.6 Updates
What about moods @InvisionHQ?

InvisionHQ 4.5 upgrades
@InvisionHQ: Can we have a re-think with the positioning for 4.6, with the awards and team badges it will get very congested to have the mood icons anywhere near the avatar/display pictures. Also, in 4.6 the positions are all over the place. Any news on an upgrade please?

CKEditor 4 end of life - alternative editor consideration
I can't pretend to know much about the different types of editors, but I actually like CKEditor. There's been no issues, that I've personally experienced with it. IPS should base their decision on a mix of things, not what's now trendy or fashionable. I'm not suggesting anyone feels this way, but I do know CKEditor isn't something that will disappear over night. It's also well supported, has useful add-ons. If, other editors are stable, user friendly, responsive and isn't going to fall off the face of the earth then fair enough. But I don't feel a change is needed for the sake of it, it's got to be balanced and we'll thought out. Requiring to change again in the near future can put people off, I don't think members care about this function - provided it's simply, easy to use and does its job.

SVG for logos and icons and WebP for images.
From what I've read it makes a lot of sense, the positives could see a large improvement for those that utilizes it - especially if .webp is used in conjunction. Most people don't have overcomplicated graphics or logos.

Chat Application ( Support Topic )
@Adriano Faria: I've had this disabled since learning that the fix TheJackal added actually duplicated new members that join. I also now have to renew but the price is set at $25 instead of $15. Is this due to the hand over? Could you please look into the duplicated member issue.

Videos Support
Sorry, @Michael.J - I have just edited one of the topics hat appeared as a 'guest' and yes, if I edit the topic as an admin it does correct itself. Hope this helps.

Post Scheduler
I asked you originally to build it for me. Which is what you did, you built the app as I needed it to add content for when I was away.
-
Post Scheduler
Yes, I requested a custom app to schedule posts for 3.4 (I think the version was). I asked @DawPi if he would update and release it in the marketplace, but he wanted to keep it custom. I actually decided not to commit to it - it's something others would benefit from more than just me.

Sorry, I'll check a bit later. I haven't been on as much since I noticed this issue.

Donations Support
COVID is really kicking my sites, I started gaining ways to fund my communities from within and even some third-party work. Last month, I lost an incredibly kind donator who chipped £10 for the last 2+ a few months. I've been ever do grateful for the support, donation drives go well but you can't always repeatedly ask for hand outs or hand ups - people soon become tired of it. However, there's still people out there willing to lend support. Unfortunately, this concern has impacted my enjoyment of what I do and I've taken time away from my main site. It's a community within the real world, without those live interactions there's little I can do. I'm trying to move into other avenues such as merch and emails (the latter I've neglected) but on those past occasions where the community got together I often had donations given to me in person. I've never known a feature to be requested so much, by many different people. As a long-standing user of IPS, Michael is someone who's shaped our communities through his apps (plus custom work). I value his time, effort and dedication highly. I'm just hopeful that Stripe might be added soon, with 4.6 it could be longer and I do understand. It's not easy to balance time with life and more important demands (I mean this with the utmost respect). It feels like the last roll of the dice for me, without the issues caused by COVID - I'd be just fine but everyone is in some form of Limbo. I would hate to be unable to keep something I care so much about. This application has helped me several times when I've really needed it, so I'm not complaining. I know Stripe will be handed at some stage. Take me back to the early 00s when things didn't cost so much. 👍🏻

Unsubscribes and Sendgrid
@breatheheavy: I am trying to find a dev that will create a widget/plugin that works with SendGrid mailing lists, this would allow members to unsubscribe directly from e-mails. I have previously used a script called Sendy which is very good, but I have moved to use SendGrid since my emails started to bounce. Hopefully, other IPS community users that use SendGrid would find this plugin/widget to be useful.

Regarding email notifications
This has recently started for me too, why? Emails sent out fine but all of a sudden its becoming unreliable.

Videos Support
Automated videos are now showing as they're posted by a guest on the 'who replied last' and inside the topic. It does show the right username on the forum index page but across to the right it does not with the who replied last.

MySQL 5.7 vs MariaDB 10.3
Can anyone shed any light on the benefits of using MariaDB? I have read it performs faster but is that the extend of the pluses to using it?
-
Donations Support
I couldn't say, but I am hoping that with new releases from @Michael.J that this feature might be closer to being included. It's one of those things we just need to wait for, as it's a part of the application which would need to be developed by the same person in order to have smooth upgrades. PS. it's worth noting you can now send out invoices to people via stripe, just like PayPal does and if you have people who would support you - this works out just as well. Though it's not the best solution as it being all in-house and handled in one place.

Migration from old to newer server
ClawOfWinterfell replied to ClawOfWinterfell's post in a topic in Classic self-hosted technical helpThanks, I checked on the live set via cPanel to see what version it was running. It's 5.6, will wait to mess around with this further until I can upgrade to the latest version. At least for now, it's ready. Thanks again!

Migration from old to newer server
ClawOfWinterfell replied to ClawOfWinterfell's post in a topic in Classic self-hosted technical helpv4.1.12.2 (very outdated). The multiphp is set to 7.2 which I don't think is compatible. I'll have a look in putting the right PHP version in place so that it works. Thank you @Nathan Explosion

Migration from old to newer server
ClawOfWinterfell replied to ClawOfWinterfell's post in a topic in Classic self-hosted technical helpThis is driving me mad, I don't know how you good folks manage to do it for a living (even with your level of knowledge). I managed to disabled all the plugins, then boom a new error. lol The first site is fine since disababling Redit. Thank you so much for everyone's help so far. ❤

Migration from old to newer server
ClawOfWinterfell replied to ClawOfWinterfell's post in a topic in Classic self-hosted technical help@Ryan Ashbrook This is the Redis error, I think I need to try to connect with FTP. This is another error thrown for another site, it only shows via the ACP which logs in as a guest without a login box ever coming up.

Migration from old to newer server
I am in the process of moving to a newer server, but I am getting a 500 page error due to redis being enabled. My host is handling the migration but I have no idea how to resolve this issue, I had a old contraints.php file saved with Redis turned off but switching file names around has no effect. I'm a little fish in a massive pool and I have no clue.

IPB & Podcasting
There already was a podcast management tool for an earlier version, yet it's author seems to have removed it. I had been using the MusicBox system but I now need something a bit more bespoke to podcasting itself. The rule of the thumb is if you seek something, try to find a developer willing to take it on which is what I've done. 👍🏻

IPB & Podcasting
I have asked @Adriano Faria to make a podcast manager, there's a lot of room for communities to deliver a podcast straight to their audience and it's a very popular feature for sites to have. I think once things get into a position whereby there's an app for this, it will fit the needs of quite a few on here.
