v1.0.3 has been submitted for approval
 

• FIXES
  • Empty placeholder no longer displayed when a Club forum post contains no image attachments
• CHANGES
  • Template modified to add a CSS class to the container DIV for the image ('nePostImageInStreamContainer')
  • Template/css modified to change CSS class of IMG from 'nepluginstreams' to 'nePostImageInStreamImage'
  • Template modified to add loading='lazy' to IMG tag

v1.1.0 is still on the agenda but only once https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/463366-topic-imageattachments-fun-games/?tab=comments#comment-2866812 has been fixed, and will add the following:

• A little tweak in it to assist with the following situation:
  • First post in a topic has an image
  • Activity Stream is configured to "Show content items only"
  • Entry for the topic, which shows the last reply, doesn't display an image as the last reply doesn't contain an image
  • The tweak I am putting in will allow you to choose to show the image from the first post, or an image from the latest post to contain an image.
  • Issue mentioned can be 'avoided' by using the "Show content items, review and comments" setting instead as that displays an entry for each post from a topic.
• The linked image used in the stream/search results will be the stored thumbnail of the image, and not the image itself (required a little trickery to figure this one out, as the thumbnail is not available by default)

 

 

 

as it looks like the cache issue  has now been fixed

am wondering if there is a possible release date planned for v1.1.0

thanks

that footer could be a game changer for me

plugin seems to be causing an error when trying to add a topic to a club

if you disable app,  the 'add topic to club works ok

@Mattam using aws elasticsearch engine service

they have started their own 'fork' of elasticsearch this year called opensearch as elasticsearch is no longer open source

is this update to the latest version of elasticsearch going to cause any issues for aws users going forwards?

have used the app for years now, a great no fuss app that should be in core

a suggested improvement

There are three ways to avoid this and have images render on the first Like or Share action:

<snip>

Use og:image:width and og:image:height Open Graph tags: Using these tags will specify the image dimensions to the crawler so that it can render the image immediately without having to asynchronously download and process it.

 

the width and height are recorded by invision on the attachment upload so could it be a simple add?

Could I ask what the issue was there? That may be helpful to others

still a mystery why it happened 

there was a third party app which had some storage extension errors but can't say if that was the cause

resolved it by simply changing my storage settings set up so if it happened again it would not have the same effect on the site

eg now use the first setting for themes etc

Could you please clarify which site this is happening to? The site you selected for this topic is on 4.6.7. 

ok seems a communication problem here, maybe my fault for posting in here, I don't need to give support access as have resolved it for now, was posting really to raise awareness as this has now happened for the second time, and have read others having similar occurrences

thanks

My first recommendation would be to upgrade to the latest release as you're running 1 release behind currently.

Is there anything running on your server at time of this happening? (e.g. server/database backup, database cleanup tasks, etc...)

Are all permissions set correctly to your datastore directory that the system is able to  read/write/delete?

thanks for reply, but the current site this happened is running the latest version ( acp support access is set up for another site)

nothing running database wise as far as aware, nothing in logs either

two other possible similar occurrences are mentioned here

This has happened twice now, two weeks apart

first time was saving an article and then the second time was saving a forum post

both times the save failed and the site was unusable directly afterwards

on looking both times the 'storage settings' all had resorted to the first directory and my invision license number had also been wiped

as my theme files was in a different directory than the first directory this crashed my site

to recover I had to re-enter all my 'Storage Settings' to their past settings and then delete the 'datastore' directory contents

this got then got site back to an useable state

have read 2 or 3 members on here having similar experience with their 'Storage Settings' being reset

a few more suggestions, less basic but all currently available on other invision apps so should be doable

and some that in 2021 should imo be part of the feature already

 

3. custom (proper) fields - so can add upcs, brand, color, condition etc etc to each item listing

4. Product image thumbnails generated - I paid for a plugin to do such but would be better if it was an invision feature

5. Tags feature - opens up all sorts of listings

6.  Comments options added to the product items

7. Select amount of items per page 

more later

8. notifications when out of stock

couple of basic suggestions

1.  add a view counter to product items - for obvious reasons

2.  when cloning/copying a product item - set the   $primaryTable['p_store'] = 0; so that the new unedited clone/copy doesn't show immediately in the store

Unfortunately, it's not really that simple. You can have posts that are hidden or unapproved that may or may not be visible to the person the link is loading for, and depending on those hidden posts, the actual last post might be on a different page.

We have effectively removed these kinds of redirects for guests though in the SEO updates, I think you'll like the results.

I'd suggest that the last_poster_name may be the key to this

as in

the  'last_poster_name'  is updated when moderation has taken place such as hiding posts

so then a proposed 'last_comment_post_id" could be updated as well at that same time, yep? 

for pages - if the 'posts' value is more than 'topic_per_page' setting + 'topic_hidden posts' value - then use either maths to work out url or the redirect

though on one of my sites only 6% of topics have more than 1 page

As Stuart mentions, a permalink has to be dynamic to account for issues arising when deleting posts (the page may change) or merging topics, etc. However, it's of little use to guests so they have been removed in November's release.

maybe as said above the last_poster_name changing may be the key to getting around the deleting /merging topics... if that is always valid then the post_id could in theory be as well... maybe

promoted by the recent seo improvements post 

a suggestion

if when recording the 'last_poster_name' username in the 'forum_topics' table,  invision also recorded at the same time the id # of the actual 'lastpost' in a new column

 could the many "&do=getLastComment" redirects then  be  replaced with a direct url link ? 

eg

I've moved this topic to the support section, and also generated a ticket about this issue. You should receive an email shortly with info about it.

anyone out there using aws elastic search service

and finding that reviews are being indexed and are showing in 'activity' feeds ?

a yes/no answer be very helpful

thanks 👍

Could you please try to rebuild the search index? This will add the missing index_is_anon to your ES search index.

rebuild of search engine done , but still the same error shows when adding a review

mapper_parsing_exception: failed to parse field [index_is_anon] of type [byte] in document with id 'calendar_event_review-xxxx'. Preview of field's value: 'false'

and again  no show of the review in 'activity'

ok my thinking is that this error is connected with the new 'anonymous' feature

the error says there is a problem with the 'parse field [index_is_anon]'

looking at review database tables  there is no anon column while the various comment tables all now have a 'comment_is_anon'

still getting this error when any sort of  review is posted

IPS\Content\Search\Elastic\Exception::0

mapper_parsing_exception: failed to parse field [index_is_anon] of type [byte] in document with id 'calendar_event_review-xxxx'. Preview of field's value: 'false'

the review does not show on activity feeds

anyone else getting this error or do your reviews work with elastic search and activity ok ?

interested in this as well

let us know if available for purchase either private or public in future

thanks

Ah, no problem. Could you please let me know which site this is on? Are you running the beta at all?

yep can do, but rather give further details in private

nope I said one site. meaning one of my sites that uses invision

dug a bit deeper, seems ever calendar review posted since the upgrade to the latest version has produced that system error

 

 

 

ok just dug more, it's the same for gallery images review

mapper_parsing_exception: failed to parse field [index_is_anon] of type [byte] in document with id 'gallery_image_review-xxx'. Preview of field's value: 'false'

You mentioned that this was on someone elses site. You would need to get that person to post up so that I can take a look at their site specifically. 

nope I said one site. meaning one of my sites that uses invision

dug a bit deeper, seems ever calendar review posted since the upgrade to the latest version has produced that system error

is that using elastic search ?

am using that via aws

The review shows ok on /content/?type=calendar_event_review&change_section=1  but not on any other activity feeds, which may mean it is elastic search connected

after posting a test review

the following error message in logs - number ties in with latest review posted

mapper_parsing_exception: failed to parse field [index_is_anon] of type [byte] in document with id 'calendar_event_review-xxxx. Preview of field's value: 'false'

backtrace says ....  IPS\Content\Search\Elastic\_Index->index()

Calendar Event Reviews not showing in main activity feed?

Just noticed this on one site,

is it a known issue?

anyone else getting it  or are reviews working correctly on their site?
