  1. Right. First of all I'm following this thread as it's definitely of interest to me I'm really intrigued by the argument being put forward for only showing ads to guests in order to get the cost per click revenue up vs the loss of showing the ads to members all day every day? Is that really something that's proven to be the most effective way to go? I took a look around your forum the other day and that's one aggressive forum you have! Ads everywhere and cutting off guests after so many views etc - does that really work or is it really stumping your growth?
  2. I just can't get this working at all When going to Social Media Promotion in ACP and clicking to set up Twitter i get Sorry, there is a problem EXPECTED_KEY_NOT_PRESENT Error code: 4C375/1
  3. Im talking about the new change from Google though
  4. Well that's just terrible news Are Invision aware of this and building it into the update? Wow just scored 29 on my test That's the lowest I've ever scored by miles
  5. It's no different at all from having a business of any other kind so social presence is critical Twitter - set up a twitter account for your forum and auto-tweet out with every new topic (including hashtags) Facebook - set up FB page for your forum and auto-post with every new topic or use the promote option Instagram - set up Instagram and post a photo every night at 5pm about your forum Facebook groups - set up a facebook group and auto post into it from your forum Join FB groups that are about your forum and share interesting/relevant topics from your forum in them
  6. I'm just starting to get complaints about that on my site
  7. Ignore this - sorted I had to go into edit HTML and copy across some advert code
  8. Heya, I love this theme!! Only thing is advertisements don't work/show? Is that a bug or is there something I need to do to activate them?
  9. Strange one I just installed a new theme (a dark mode one) On my standard theme advertisements show just fine When I switch theme to the new dark theme no advertisements show at all. The install for the dark theme was just an XML file to change the CSS colours Any ideas why the advertisements features just wouldn't show on a new theme if all that's changed is the CSS/colours?
  10. I think that's just your personal preference for your personal website. It would have zero benefits for me, and would put my users off. My users prefer to go straight into the forums to read the latest posts. Any new users end up the same place and immediately get to grips with the site
  11. It's absolutely mindblowing that all these years in of Invision Forums being a thing, that the og image for topics hasn't been integrated as standard instead we get a sharing image? Madness
  12. I only use Forums (I don't use pages etc) The user lands on the home page of my website and immediately sees everything they need to Adding another step into this process and the user would log off There's absolutely no need whatsoever for another random page for them to see before they get to what they've come for My home page is my forum index. I'm happy with that. To put another page in the way of it would be ridiculous
  13. Simply put, my users would see a homepage and log straight back off again. As it stands they land straight on the forums page and straight into the action!
  14. This looks fantastic - I'm struggling to recreate this on my forum but would really like to. Is there a dummies guide to doing this somewhere?
  15. How do you intervene to do that? E.g. if a member posts a new topic with an image in the thread, how do you spot that you don't want that image and then intervene? (my site is fast moving so I probably wouldn't spot them all)
  16. That looks perfect to me, although I daren't buy it until I know it won't be affected/outdated by the upcoming update to Invision
  17. Thank you I raised a support ticket which has been escalated as both my forums emails are not responsive so something's gone wrong somewhere!
  18. This is true Google keeps my lights on and my site running financially
  19. Thank you - will that work in the advertisement block in ACP?
  20. Are digest emails supposed to be responsive in format? Mine aren't and it's driving me crazy as they're unreadable
  21. Bizarrely mine arrive at the same time every day/night though?
  22. My forums (I have two) send out daily digest emails and bulk emails Both aren't responsive though, so if someone posted a large image on the forums it sends out this image in the daily emails or bulk emails and it stretches beyond the readable screen on desktop On email the image is responsive but because it's such a large email it then shrinks all the text down to a totally unreadable size? Is there a way to set forum emails to go out in a responsive sizing?
  23. I have two Invision forums One sends out it's daily digest emails at 10:30pm The other sends out daily digest emails at 9:30am the next morning which is a far better time to recieve the emails as a user How do I get the first forum to send out daily digest emails at the same time as the second (9:30am)?
  24. Hi, I've used Invisionboard since the early 2000's and have used the advertisement block to put my adsense onto the forum and that's been fantastic But today I got an email from Google that there needs to be a padding of 30px above and below each ad I have no idea how to apply this - does anyone know?
