Upgrading after purchasing Pages - HELP! :)
Millipede replied to Chris Conley's topic in Help & Support
Just to add a "me too" for the benefit of other Transmit users who may be worried about this . About 18 months ago, I too added Pages after upgrading my forum (belatedly, from IPS v.3 to v.4.3). I too use Transmit and didn't experience any breakages of any kind, and I don't remember what "transfer" setting I had. However, the first thing I always do without fail with any new or (majorly) updated app is to check the preferences and setup first, and I tend to have all the "transfer" options set to "ask me" as a means of making sure it doesn't do something I don't want it to, eg: for other websit -

I’m also a fan of back to top buttons It can also be an accessibility thing. On mobile devices, having the button can mean not having to move your hand to the top of your device (if tapping the top works) when your hand’s at the bottom, having used it to scroll down - most people I know, with or without accessibility issues, swipe with their finger resting towards the bottom of the screen, not at the top. On desktops, your hand might be on the mouse, and you don’t want to have to leave your mouse to hit a key, let alone a combination of keys (not everybody can reach two, let alone three, -

You should be able to change the text by editing it in Customization > Localization> Languages. Eg, if you enter "permission to view" in the Languages search box, it will bring up several areas with that text.

It would be so super wonderful if you were able to keep it, whether free or paid. It really does make such a difference, turning the normally boring avatars into graded ones with lovely colours (that somehow seem to blend in well with my forum colours). A few of my members have also had fun with creating their own. It's a big app and it always surprised me that it was free for such an app (these days, anyway!).

I guess that means Names 2 Avatars won't be updated... 😭 I don't suppose you'd maybe make it a paid app? I'd be happy to pay for it if it meant it could continue.

Auto move posts to another forum after cut off date
Millipede replied to Davyc's topic in Feature Suggestions
@Davyc Archiving seems (to me, at least) to be more of a "grave yard" sort of thing... I didn't think it would be suitable for your needs. What you (maybe me too) are looking for is something that can automate moving topics that are older than X days from a particular forum to another forum. I've no idea if this add-on (or its full version) might help? Then there's the matter of if it'll be compatible with v.4.4... -

Millipede replied to Davyc's topic in Feature Suggestions
Info about archiving is here: The following may or may not be important to you (italics are mine for emphasis): Personally, I find that topics not showing in search results is a bit of a no-no... Also, if you want people to reply, even if at a much later date than that of the news topic, they won't be able to. -

Auto move posts to another forum after cut off date
Millipede replied to Davyc's topic in Feature Suggestions
I too have a “News” forum on my support forum, where I use the RSS feeds feature to pull in articles from other sites. My forum (now 14 years old) is very much quieter than it used to be, as I guess many users moved to one or more of the many Facebook Groups for the same condition. In the past, I used to use a plugin to delete news topics older than X days (eg, 3, 4, 6 months). As similar plugins for IPS 4 are no longer available (although they still exist), I’ve now got a “News” forum with 100s of topics, and before long it will end up with as many topics as my main forum has. It also me -
I sent a PM on 2 February, but haven't heard back yet. Did you get it OK?

Thanks for the heads-up. I'd already decided not to upgrade till I knew my tons of add-ons were compatible! Insane indeed...

That'll be wonderful, Dawid, thanks so much!

Forgive me, but I'm a little confused here... What does the Keyword page, with the A-Z tabs do? Might there be a demo somewhere for it, or might another user be willing to give a link to their forum with Keywords on it, so's I can see how that page works? Not necessarily, the Keywords app might still be useful, whether as a replacement for IPS's acronyms feature or not especially if it can show keywords on mobiles, being as IPS's acronym feature doesn't.

I love this plugin, it's so handy! Would it be possible, please, to add a list somewhere of all topics I've added notes to (only publicly visible to me)? Something like "Noted Topics" for instance? Unless I’m missing where it might be (if such a list exists), I might forget that I’ve added a note to a topic or I might forget which topic I’ve added a note to, so I have to scroll through pages and pages of topics to look for the icon next to the topic title.

Keyword Tooltip I’m thinking of maybe getting this app, and have a couple of questions, please. We use a lot of 3-letter acronyms, commonly used in the subject matter of my forum, which can’t be searched for as Search can’t/won’t work for 3-letter words. How does the Keyword (index) page work? Do the A-Z tabs list by keyword or by topic title; or, can you sort by keyword? If it can list/sort by keyword, it could would mean that people could use the Keyword page to search through them for those 3-letter words/acronyms? As an example (not my subject matter), by going to the C tab, it w
