    Morrigan got a reaction from jackflash in Please restore the choice of reactions here at IPS!   
    I don't miss the confused reaction but I do miss the sad reaction. We are living in a tumultuous time right now with a global pandemic, and more. You don't always have the words to express that you are feeling for that person's difficult time and seeing a bunch of empty "I'm so sorry"'s in a thread I think is just as damning as no one replying at all to someone's rough time. The sad reaction gave people a means to offer support, show that they read the post without replying with an empty platitude that means even less than a supportive reaction.

    The +1 button was a great idea but please return or improve the number of reactions here at the IPS Community forum. It's feels to me IMHO almost like we're being stifled by some dark, manipulative branding and marketing PR department or something. Reactions allowing the ability to show you you're saddened, disagree or are confused about something and help provide a balance of opinion, freedom of expression and thought.
    Thanks for reading.

    No. Just making sure I tell you what to do correctly.
    You can probably do it with the code:
    <div style='width: 47%; margin-right: 2%;' class='ipsPos_right'>{$value|raw}</div> For the custom display.

    Its not possible with core. That time is universal. You will need a mod/plugin. @DawPi

    Okay, I'll remember that. I haven't used the support for a long time. Now I can see that it is much more convenient than before. 👍

    Issues like this should be reported via ticket so the actual support team can investigate and resolve it. This is a feedback forum, not a bugs forum.

    Morrigan got a reaction from Sonya* in Full screen background   
    @MartinLawrence That is a custom theme so we don't know the specifics of this. What @Sonya* posted should work for the default theme with making the header background transparent. Unfortunately, since that's definitely not default I really can't advise without seeing the site/theme in question.

    I think the only difference here is that you are allowing IPS to deal with the unsubscribe whereas I believe that @Jordan Invision is using Sendgrid's unsubscribe. So I think Mandrill COULD be just as intrusive but its a matter of how its setup.

    No worries. I was just trying to make sure it was clear that is how it works and always how it worked so no one gets confused about it if they read the thread.
    IIRC @breatheheavy modified their email templates to use the sendgrid unsubscribe instead of the IPS unsubscribe which is where I believe the core of their issue is coming from TBH. Sendgrid won't honor what the End User wants from IPS is the End User has specified they don't want email from the sender at all.

    This is how the newsletter works currently. If you're having problems with it then there is something larger as far as an issue. Receiving bulk mail from the site is NOT under the same umbrella as receiving notification emails etc. THEY ARE separate.

    Q1) How are they unsubscribing? Normally when they unsubscribe from the newsletter this doesn't stop other things. Most likely you are using Sendgrid's unsubscribe and you would likely have to discuss this with them or get some sort of mod to undo this miess.
    Q2) If they aren't subscribed to your newsletter that block shows up (last I checked it doesn't show to guests at all).
    What it sounds like is that they are subscribed to your newsletter but they have unsubscribed from receiving your emails through sendgrid and so sendgrid isn't sending anything. You should be using the default IPS subscribe/unsubscribe stuff, not sendgrid's which is likely your downfall here.

    Oh! You're not talking about a block then. You're talking about the index page for the Gallery. I didn't realize that. You will need to submit a ticket as that does sound like a bug.

    I must apologize for being short-worded with my answers. I fear in my attempt to be short and direct, I have left the wrong impression. 
     
     I understood that is how it works now, and that is how it has worked. My initial comment was for @breatheheavy as I was confused and puzzled on how he had managed to unite the e-mail in such a fashion. SendGrid (https://sendgrid.com) as I understood it was a mailing service, and I was puzzled how that server was somehow undermining the internal e-mail system. I admit to ignorance (not knowing better in this instance on how that can happen).  
     
    I made my reply before I knew you had replied. 
     
    Once you read my comment, I appreciate you took the time to clarify that the two (newsletters -vs.- general e-mails) should operate independently. While I already knew this, I was appreciative that you took the time to address me anyways (thanks). I quickly said that it was good to know in my short-sightedness and that I am looking forward to 4.6. Which I am looking forward to since it will support PHP 8. But there was no way for you to know why I am waiting for 4.6, and my pleasantry comment, with my effort to be short-worded, seems to have given the wrong impression.  
     
    I apologize for my miscommunication.

    This is how it works NOW. Its always been how it worked. When you sign up for the newsletter/admin communication you are signing up to allow for "bulk mail" that the admin sends. It does not in any way affect the notifications etc.
