    When you say it doesnt show on the day view, are you looking at the day it starts? Do you have an example I can look at?

    nope, am saying it doesnt show on the days in between the start and the end days as per below 

    Quote

     

    Set an event lasting more than 2 days - say  starts Friday ends Tuesday

    Now if I go to one of the Day views (not the start or the finish date) say Saturday, Sunday or Monday - on both live and test sites the event does not show in the day view!

     

    is this known?

  2. Am getting the below on both live site and generic test site

    Ranged events not showing in the day view

    On the event guide 

    Set an event lasting more than 2 days - say  starts Friday ends Tuesday

    The event shows ok in both the week and monthly view

    Now if I go to one of the Day views (not the start or the finish date) say Saturday, Sunday or Monday - on both live and test sites the event does not show in the day view!

     

    Can anyone out there confirm if this happens for them as well?

    In the Article Syncing to Forum setting, when "Use forum for comments" is set to Off, the Comments on the cross-posted forum topic should not be rendered but can include a link to the Comments on the original article. Otherwise, comments would be scattered between article and forum topic.

    These links to the original article along with an excerpt/snippet of the article:

    • View Full Article
    • Comments

     

    This isn't clear.

    Does this involve editing of the templates?

    nope

    Please send full menu path in the ACP to the above.

    can't do full path as the acp link depends on the database name/id

    so just use the link titled 'databases name' Fields

    then click on a field and you will see a field with the text underneath

    This setting controls whether the field will be included in the automatically generated topic, and how to format it. Use {title} for field title, and {value} for field value. Leave empty to not include in the automatically generated topic.

    more  info and   a screenshot  here may help

     

     

  4. Point #1 is already available

    see the 'topic field'  option

    you can turn it off for the main content field (by removing it)  and then add your own 'teaser' field with the 'topic field' filled in as per

    The forum copy of an article should be able to be an excerpt, truncated, with a URL to the full article, imo. 

     

    Isn't the url always added automatically to the forum post? It is for my site

    On the rest you can do this already, though the excerpt does need to be added  manually when the article is posted (a simple copy and paste?)

     

    Use a new field called say 'teaser' or something and make sure that you fill in the 'Topic Format'

    You can also add a character restriction to this field if needed

     

    Then remove the 'Topic Format' from your original content field.

     

    Then when posting the article fill in the 'excerpt' manually (copy and paste)

    The above should then, when publishing an article, post as well a forum post containing an 'excerpt' (the teaser field) and a link to the article

    1. Cross-posting the entire article body may get penalties from search engines for duplicated content. The content can also go out of sync if the original article is modified which is not graceful. A new option may be provided to post just a link to the original article instead of the entire body. It is perfectly fine to post a link to another content in SEO terms.

    If these issues are resolved, general forum sites who want to use cross-posting articles as forum topics feature would use it.

    you should be able to achieve this by editing the content fields Topic Format

    just remove the (value} shown in the form

     

    This setting controls whether the field will be included in the automatically generated topic, and how to format it. Use {title} for field title, and {value} for field value. Leave empty to not include in the automatically generated topic.

    No. Download and open applications / videos / sources / Video / Video.php, find and delete:

    \IPS\Content\Views,

    Find:

        use \IPS\Content\Reactable, \IPS\Content\Reportable;

    Change to:

        use \IPS\Content\Reactable, \IPS\Content\Reportable, \IPS\Content\ViewUpdates, \IPS\Content\Statistics;

    Save and upload.

    This will cause views to be counted again.

    ah just seen this
    and this has sorted the views issues

    thanks again to  @Adriano Faria

    I have posted this on your website, but you don't check your bug reports anymore... 

    I have posted here too.

    After latest update of IPB (Invision Community v4.7.11) Counters Stop Working

    @Michael.J

    take it that this has something to do with

    • \IPS\Content\Views interface has been deprecated, you should use the \IPS\Content\ViewUpdates trait instead.

    any eta ?

    What you are seeing is correct in terms of a clock icon showing, but it would only show to people who have access to view hidden items, and the author. If you believe this not to be the case, we would need an example item, user who can see it, and where they can see it.

    Our current articles setup - all articles submitted by members need to be approved

     

    a member submits an article

    the admin edits the article and schedules it to be published 24 hours later

    the admin then approves the article (this can only be done via the front end)

    though the article is still awaiting publishing and so should be still hidden after approval - it now shows to all but still has the 'clock' icon showing awaiting publication

     

    therefore it appears that when the admin 'approves' the article the system is setting the wrong permissions on the article causing it to show to all

     

    ok set up a test article 

     

    here's the flow

    articles are setup so members can post articles but the article needs 'approval'

    1 . member posted an article - as above it now needs approval

    2. article scheduled to publish in two months by admin

    3. article then 'approved' by admin on the front end

     

    resulting in the article now showing in full public view - when it should not show - plus the 'clock' showing

     

    have pm'd you a link so you can see this in the real world

     

    as said it seems the 'approval' process is flawed , possibly skipping the 'published' aspect  completely

    In fact, I have a database about magazines.
    Often, the communicated release date contains only the month and year (not the day). I would have liked to be able to display only the date in MM/YYYY format
    That's when the idea of changing a language string was suggested, but that would affect other databases.

    why not just add a custom date field to the magazine database?

    I had the same error using a 'new' generated theme

    I temporary resolved it by removing

        <span>{lang="package_initial_term" sprintf="$details['initialTerm']"}</span><br>

    in the  packageBlockPrice template - there are just two instances of this call in whole theme

    I'd say a possible commerce bug that needs fixing/investigating ?

    Also $priceDetails['initialTerm'] call in the 'package' template seemed to cause a similar effect/error - needed to get rid of  that as well

      <div><span data-role="initialTerm">{lang="package_initial_term_title" sprintf="$priceDetails['initialTerm']"}</span></div>

    I suspect this is something caused by either your custom theme or a plugin/app. I would recommend testing with a default theme and if it still occurs, disable any addons you may have.

  14. Anyone at invision explain the thinking behind these two sets of statements...

     

    Commerce Deprecation

    Commerce Help Feature - Now, there are many email support desk solutions that are a significant improvement on what Commerce offers...
    ...we made the decision to deprecate the support desk feature

    Commerce Sales Feature -  ...physical product sales have now been deprecated and are much better handled by specialist services such as Shopify.

    versus

    New Courses and Lessons Feature

    The Courses app is not going to try to be a full LMS. Not trying to run a university here 🙂

     

    As I see it invision are...

    Getting rid of 2 features (that I use heavily) with the reason being you can get better commercial versions elsewhere

    Whilst adding one new feature (that I have no use for) even though you can get better commercial versions elsewhere

    All a bit conflicting to me

    Plus while here, may as well ask, will the cost of commerce go down now as it will be a lesser product for self hosted packages?
