When I add blocks to the Communitymap application and then chose it as the 'Default' suite application, then the hooks don't show up when clicking on the suite logo. Is it an issue of the app or of the suite?

As someone else mentioned, we too don't get countries saved as per members' choices, instead, other countries are getting assigned, which makes the app unusable for us, unfortunately. If you could have a look at it would be appreciated.

My comment was a follow up on our post from 11 Oct when we have raised the issue, we would really appreciate if a fix could get released soon, thanks.

Refund request canceled. New version to fix this issue will be released during the week. 

Hi any progress with the fix?, I think for the time being it would be enough to ensure manual inputs of the location has priority over geolocating input. Its been a couple of days since our members see completely different countries than they are in, which doesn't make the app usable at the moment.

Hello, there seems to be a bug in the latest version of the plugin: when activating the 'Column Border Separation' the separator is projected to forum posts as well. Resulting in line as shown below:

IPS heldpesk identified the issue here:

We find the Community Map application very important for our sites (expats living abroad) and we are exploring ways how to 'project/promote' it more on the main page so that it is more obvious to first-time visitors that the map is available. While we have created a 'block' via pages (just a simple png file as shown below), we think there is a great potential of having it interactive as a 'hook', so that we could position it on top of the forums etc. Would it be possible/practical? I think introducing hooks for the app users would open doors to further use of this great application.

I would raise a ticket with support as this is out of my range of control. 🙂

Below is the response I received from the helpdesk, could you please raise the issue with the dev team if possible, so that we gain access to the plugin please?

Hi it is a great news seeing the plugin been upgraded inlc, all the new features, thank you for that! In our ACP Marketplace however there is no option to upgrade from previous version. We have the previous version installed, configured and paired with the marketplace, yet marketplace doesn't recognize the new version as a new version and it states, that the plugin is already installed. Any advice here?

Is it possible to run Classifieds without a Commerce? On all our 3 installations we don't need any transaction facility since we just need to display adverts and let the members communicate via PMs. In other words we need only only probably 50% of functions Classifieds are offering at the moment and yet we are required to pay Commerce in order to have Classified running. In case it is required, would it be feasible to consider any light version of the application, which would not be dependent on Classifieds?

Hello @TDBF, do you plan on upgrading this for 4.5? I was using it on my 4.4 board and it would be great to have it on 4.5 if possible 🙂 

Hi, the plugin is working on all our five 4.5.3 sites without any issue, no issue with upgrades at all.

Was there an intention to import the translated language pack from Member Map as well? It seems in my case the Community Map needs to be translated from scratch. Just wanted to ask if I haven't overlooked anything.

It appears the Community Map has been made public in the Marketplace! I managed to purchase it and upgrade the old Member Map app already and everything went smoothly! Thanks to Martin for supporting us and having the application 4.5 ready! To all admins, please note the note regarding upgrade in the file description.

What version of the Auto Welcome app did you upgrade from?

 

I had 'the previous' version installed, since I am keeping all ups up-to-date, unfortunately, the site is down, due to the incomplete upgrade of the latest IPS patch which cannot be completed due to the hick-up of the Auto Welcome app, could you please advise on any patch which would help us with this issue?

during the auto welcome upgrade i got this error message:

 

and later when trying to apply IPS fix ('something is not working properly') I got this:

Thanks for the update, @Michael.J! When we tried installing this in test, the "upgrade" process hiccupped and the plugin is now in an inconsistent state. We have upwards of a million members, and something was happening in increments of 50 at a time. 

Is this a bug in the IPS plugin/upgrade system or something else? Is there a way to hand this off to the background processes to avoid things like this?

This happened to me on 2 of my 5 installations too, I would also appreciate any advise of how this could be fixed..

Yes. But I'll have to make quite a few changes in order to comply with the marketplace guidelines.

Would it be possible to release a 4.5 'beta' patch so that we restore functionality of the Member Map for those of us who have 4.5 installed? I understand ensuring application compliance with the new IPS marketplace guidelines may take some time. This model was very helpful when followed by some other developers.

Thank you for clarification. I have noticed another badge here: 'recently joined' how is it defined (e.g. showing 3 months since registration) and can it be adjusted in ACP anywhere? Are there any other badges we should be aware of?

Can I ask how to activate the badge icon as shown below? I am struggling to find it in the 4.5 ACP, I can see 'Group Icon' in the ACP Member Group Setting but this badge looks like a different element.

Can I ask for opinion regarding the best workflow to be adopted when trying to import large number of KMLs into the Member Map. Say I would like to import of country's embassies/consulates into the map, there can be 100 of them. What I started doing is to locate them individually in Google Earth first and saving them each to My Spaces within a dedicated folder. Do I have to export them again individually into my PC as KML/KMZ and then again individually import them to Member Map via ACP? This seems to be a lengthy process, is there any easier way?

Thank you, the examples provided me with some good hints regarding the implementation via HTML, now the relation between the IPS core and FA it is becoming more clear to me..

I know very little about Font Awesome, I would be interested in knowing more about application of FA within the IPS ecosystem. I would specifically like to know if or how IPS is currently natively supporting FA in 4.5? I would enjoy having the ability to use the FA on various icons across my sites.

From the little I know about FA in IPS is the below:

1. Searching in Admin Panel gives zero search result on 'awesome'
2. There is a 3rd party plugin to introduce icon in front of usernames
3. There is a 3rd party plugin to include FA in forum icons
4. FA are free in its basic icons package (?) - and I assume the above apps operate with the free package
5. FA Standard package is paid on $99/year basis, offering FA6 - If I ever purchase the package, how could I integrate it to IPS

Many thanks.

I find it would be very interesting to have a live webinars provided IPS on dedicated topics (say 4.5 themes, 4.5 Pages etc.) including a space for Q/As. I would really benefit form being taken through various hidden corners of the IPS apps. The resulting videos could be made available here for offline watching and for technical support reference. Great for team bonding too :) What do you think?

I too would like to know how to set that online guests' number is a number of actual human visitors (rather than both human visitors and search engines), I wonder what value it has for me as an admin to know that there are 265 search engines currently active on my sites.

[UPDATE: Found this option as 'Manual Thumbnail Upload' in the Edit Link 🙊]

I would find useful if links could have thumbnails auto generated as well as optionally manually uploadable.

From time to time I am not happy with the auto generated thumbnails and I don't seem to have any way how to upload my own image (without changing the settings in ACP each time). Have I missed anything?

Is there anyway for a User to post their own ad???

Hi, would this work for you? ACP -> Members -> Groups -> Permissions (The lock icon) -> Classifieds -> Add Advert (Yes/No)
