I for my project with Laravel 9 decided to use the user management of IP.Board, the user logs in from the forum and has full access also to the portal in Laravel, like commenting articles.
To make Laravel communicate with IP.Board just call the file init.php in AppServiceProvider.php
class AppServiceProvider extends ServiceProvider { public function register() { // } public function boot() { $path = base_path('../forum.***.ext/'); require_once $path . 'init.php'; view()->composer('*', function ($view) { \IPS\Session\Front::i(); }); To get user data on a laravel blade I use:
{{\IPS\Member::loggedIn()->name}} I hope this can be a starting point to help you develop what you want.

I don't understand, really. You are telling me that a user cannot delete his account or at least request a deletion? That should be a core feature and not something that has be paid. That doesn't make sense. 
Users will have an option to disable/delete an account. It's the normal behaviour, like adding a new user or editing it.
This is not possible at present, only via a plugin created by Adriano Faria.  
Thanks

There is a possibility to add code to body output. 

Can you add the same for Head code, please? 
This is the only thing where users with default and easy-mode themes have to mess up with the templates code and probably get upgrade headache. Additionally, users without HTML knowledge cannot add any code at all.
It starts by Ads Network (like AdSense) and ends with pop-up forms for Newsletter sign-ups (like Mailchimp). 

This is true for professionals. Professionals can edit HTML and can also resolve the upgrade issues.
Non-code customers will not understand what you say. Google, Mailchimp and all other providers out there offer them ready-to-use snippets along with the instruction where to put it. And they will try to add them by messing templates. Even worse, they will forget their snippets later in the template bits. The scripts stay there forever, even if they are not needed.
You do not remove something that you do not see, do not understand and not aware of 😉  

That’s why it never gets fixed. IPS just pretends there is no issue with excuses. The expiration isn’t the point. It’s the fact that an existing expired invoice on file blocks future purchases, which is very clearly wrong and not how ANY other subscription service on the planet is working. If I subscribe to a newspaper and cancel it, I will always be able to start FRESH in the future. Of course I am. It’s what I want, it’s what the newspaper wants. Why would the software prevent it for now reason against my will and the provider’s will? The Washington Post or Netflix aren’t saying “oh, your subscription expired 5 years ago, so you will never ever be able to start a new subscription”. That would be insane. But it is how IPS has coded it. And that it even fine in the sense, that things like that happen. It was probably an honest mistake to set it up like that originally. But it is not fine to not own up to it and correct it after admin after admin runs into this problem for years, loosing money because people willing to continue a subscription can’t and just give up.
Not letting invoices expire is a work-around at best, it’s the not the proper solution. If someone would let the subscription expire and they did not use it for years, the SHOULD be starting fresh with with any product and the current conditions, maybe even higher prices, because their subscription has expired years ago. Why should I set it so that they will forever be able to pick up the old subscription just so users don’t run into this problem of not being able to continue a subscription at all. This is objectively flawed. An expired invoice is meaningless. It should not block people from buying the product like a new subscriber. Anyone with expired subscriptions should get exactly the same offers as someone who never had a subscription to begin with. 

I have finished converting the old plugin into an app and it only remains for me to fix some graphic finishing touches. Immediately afterwards it will be sent to the marketplace. From then on, fingers crossed... if it doesn't get approved I'll sell it outside the marketplace anyway.

There could be so many css element designs tailored to each view, hiding content, etc...missed opportunity IMHO.

All products from themes to applications can add copyright, except translations.
All other products from XenForo, vBulletin, phpBB etc provide a string to insert the copyright of the translation, it would be nice if IP.Board also thought about the translators every now and then...
Also you have the tool that shows the differences in themes from version to version, why not do something for the translation system as well?

The announcement of a price hike combined with no more ticket support is reason enough for me to reconsider my business strategy.

I rarely need ticket support, I usually solve the problems myself. But having no ticket support for a software is simply a no-go for me. And having a newsletter that tries to sell a drastically price hike from $50 to $80 as "increase of $2.50/month" is more cynicism than I need from a provider. If I need cynicism or sales speech I will do that myself.

I worked for more than 20 years as a developer, team leader and divisional head in the software industry and I think I have a sixth sense for software companies and how they work and think internally. In the last year I have got too many bad signals from Invision: maybe in the future cloud only? Zapier not until protests? Price hike. No more ticket support.

I'm in the process of converting a bunch of Xenforo and Wordpress sites to Invision and today I've halted the process. Final decision how to proceed until end of the year. In the end, its all about trust.

I converted a community from XenForo to IP.Board, the converter worked great, too bad it doesn't generate a redirect system and so the indexing of XenForo is lost....

I'll start by saying that I don't have Commerce installed as an app on my board.
I believe that in user history, using the term customer is incorrect, and it is more correct to use member/user.
key string: customer_no_history

It would be nice that when one writes a post, to the side or below it loads in ajax the similar content based on the thread title, similar to what happens on Stackoverflow.
 
This feature would have made Sonya find a discussion similar to the one she was posting already at creation, and not just later through the side widget...

Just a suggestion for those who wants to use it in their sites (not here on IPS, of course):
It works with Elastic Search.

Is there any possibility to export translations for rules and badges? It seems, that exporting function only exports translations for Ranks. No translations for badges and the comments for the reason are exported. Is it possible to import translations into another community? I have tried to import Ranks and import function has replaced the ranks in English as well. What I need:
translate rules, ranks and badges export all translations import all translation in other community (without replacing English)

don't worry, already they know about this problem
 

I was reading a topic here on support, and I saw that in the similar content widget, I get a content pending approval.
I believe the content pending approval:
They should NEVER appear in similar content
They should NEVER appear to users, maybe only moderators and administrators.
Clicking on the result I get the error: "We could not find that topic", rightly so...
Even as a visitor with incognito browsing, if you want the reference topic:

I remember there mentioned getting suggestions for ips gallery improvements...

are you seen n8n.io or n8n.cloud ?

We have considered looking into this but since all browsers today have built in translation tools, we didn’t see the need. 

This is something that has been bothering me for some time now. Why E V E R Y image on a post must be thumb nailed and posted with a lightbox link?  WHY?
I know it is like this for long time now but still, it makes no sense to me. That would only make sense if only puts lightbox on images bigger than my upload limits. Not for smaller images like this one:





Someone knows anything that can prevent that? Some configuration that i didn't found it, any plugins, anything?

Thank you.
