    Welcome to Invision Community 5!
    Over the coming weeks, we'll be exploring a bunch of new features and improvements coming to our user interface including our brand new theme editor, a new mobile UI, dark mode and performance improvements thanks to a reduction in both JavaScript and CSS. To kick off this series, let’s take a closer look at the new sidebar layout and new view modes for the forum index and topic pages.
    Sidebar Layout
    Traditionally, Invision Community has shipped with a horizontal header and navigation bar at the top of the page, which is still available in version 5. We're introducing a brand new (and optional) sidebar layout, which can be enabled or disabled easily from within your theme settings. The sidebar not only provides convenient access to your applications, activity streams and search bar, but you can now add links to nodes for even easier access to popular or commonly used areas of your community. For example - a category from your forum, an album from the Gallery, or a product group from Commerce.

    Forum Index: Feed view
    One of our goals for version 5 was to re-imagine new ways for your visitors to consume content, and the sidebar layout is just one of our solutions. Table view has been the typical way of displaying forums, providing visitors with a simple summary of the most recently active topic. Grid mode introduced cover photos to forums and is a great way to make your page more visually engaging, while fluid view allows visitors to filter through a list of topics to easily focus on multiple areas of the community.
    Joining these view modes in version 5 is our new Feed view. Optional cover photos and featured forum colours allow you to personalise each forum, and a list of recently active topics with snippets of the most recent reply allow you to easily see what each forum is focusing on at a glance. The topic list drops below the cover photo and converts to a scrollable list on small devices. It's our fresh take on content display, and we can’t wait to hear your feedback!

     
    Topic pages: Compact view
    In addition, Invision Community 5 also introduces a new, compact layout option for topics. We wanted to create a layout which placed focus on your content while still keeping all of the authors profile information easily accessible within a mini profile. Stats, rank, badges, reputation points and more can be found by tapping the icon at the top of every post. The mini profile strip has also been added to other areas of the software too, such as comments and reviews in applications like Gallery and Blogs, and will appear on the mobile layout when the traditional "table view" is used in topics.
    Switching between the new compact view and the author sidebar view takes just seconds giving you complete control over your community.

    As part of this view, you also have the choice to feature/pin the original post to the top of every page, making it a breeze for your visitors to easily understand the context of replies without navigating back to page 1. Pinned posts have a slightly larger font-size to distinguish them from replies, and we've thoughtfully truncated them on pages beyond the first to keep scrolling to a minimum.

     
    The new sidebar layout and view modes offer a fresh and innovative approach to navigating and interacting with your community. We’re really keen to hear your thoughts on these new views and whether you’ll be unleashing them on your own sites! We appreciate that no two sites are the same, and those who are a fan of the classic header look will benefit from quick styling tools and a visual way to re-arrange the header elements which we’ll cover in a later blog.
    We’re looking forward to showcasing a whole bunch of new features over the coming weeks - so stay tuned, and we’ll see you then!

    I found the super secret server hosting the site!  Invision.local!  That’s what you get for not blaring out that localhost address!  

    All the secrets exposed!

    This is certainly something I'd get behind.  It would vastly improve monetization on articles and even help with readers as you can simply add a block of additional information through your news or whatever.

    Hi,
    As far as I know, there is not an easy way to include blocks in database entries. In our install (and possibly others 😊), there are several occasions when adding blocks to articles would be very useful:
    Inserting custom ads in custom locations of the article Inserting a block with sponsors of specific articles In an expanding series of articles within a topic, a block with links to the different parts would take away a huge amount of editing when new parts are published One way of doing it would be to include a button in the text editor that brings up a list with the available custom blocks, similar to the way you browse for available Custom Blocks in the Blocks Manager on the live page. But I'd also be happy to just paste the block key in a field. Any improvement in this regard is greatly appreciated.
    Cheers

    We've deployed a fix for this issue. If you have a stuck upgrade, download the files from the Client Area and manually upload to your community. Then continue the upgrade at <url>/admin/upgrade .
    If you have upgraded yet, there's nothing to worry about. This fix is included in all future upgrades.

    @Jim M The issue still persists, and there is indeed an upgrade in progress - which I can't complete. Please note that the issues is in our test install environment (which has a public address too).

    @Stuart Silvester Unfortunately I can't access the AdminCP since the upgrade is in progress. And when I continue the upgrade the error message in the first page reappears. I'll try finding info in the core_log table tomorrow morning and I touch base again then. Cheers!

    Editorn reacted to Nathan Explosion in Help with creating a custom embedded link   
    Runar's method is relevant for those sites that have an oembed endpoint that can be used. A different approach would be required for sites that do not provide an oembed endpoint (instead, they provide "replacement code" that you would need put in place) - in that case, you'd take advantage of _customEmbed in \IPS\Text\Parser
    When I am looking at adding something like this, the first question I ask is "Does the source site have an oembed endpoint?" and I go from there. If it does, then I use my own app to add it in: 
    If it doesn't, then I throw together a new plugin using the _customEmbed method instead. And if I see something requesting the same on here then I add it in to the above application too.
    Happy to throw a simple plugin together to help you out here.
