    LaCollision reacted to newbie LAC in Lazy load in 3rd-party resources   
    You should to use additional attributes
    img[data-src]
    [data-background-src]
    iframe[data-embed-src]
    video[data-video-embed]
    + controllers which support lazy load or attribute data-ipsLazyLoad
     
    Examples
    <div data-controller='core.front.core.lightboxedImages'> {{if settings.lazy_load_enabled}} <img src='{expression="\IPS\Text\Parser::blankImage()"}' data-src='link_to_img' alt="alt_text"> {{else}} <img src='link_to_img' alt="alt_text"> {{endif}} </div>

    LaCollision reacted to Gill in Mobile App, Progressive Web App (PWA) For IPB   
    HI GUYS :) 
    @Morgin @BomAle   Here My 2 cents for Apple IOS and PWA :
    It  Disappointing ios is not supporting push notifications yet  . I think in future apple will revise push notification policy again when PWA become mainstream.  Bigger companies adopting the PWA apps day by day.

     
    PWA is not just another Buzz word,  PWA again transferring the power back to Web Developers which was lost during native mobile app era. I think REST API based apps for IPB not right approach, From developers point of views, it will make mobile apps  hard to maintain and compatible with every new version of IPB and updates of hundered of IPB plugins. However PWA just uses Mobile Responsive of Website.
    Forums Founders  spent both Time and money to make his/her community sustainable. sometime new users like the forums but forget url and browser history deleted,at that time website looses one member ? this same things happened with me many times and may be other members share the same experience. 
    For iOS users or Android users there is more chances, new users of clients Forum website click on App icons  (Installed by PWA ) again than open browser inside the mobile, remember the website URL and hit the enter. No matter whether  PWA support push notifications for particular mobile os or not :)
    Moreover for just one mobile OS. it is not good idea not to implement for other too. PWA fully supported in Window 10 redstone 4. We can't ignore the billions machine running  window 10. Window 10 PWA app would be huge opportunity  to keep the website users engage with website. Just imagine clients Forums apps are installed on users PC.  Even They don't open browser and enter forum URL,  with single push notification you can make users again engage to your website ? More and more adopting the window 10

    In my opinion, to do a PWA well, you need to do more than just take a responsive theme and add a manifest. PWAs are expected to feel like native apps, and so we'd have quite a bit of work to do to meet that standard I think.
    We aren't ignoring mobile though, don't worry ?

    Looks like some people in this topic don't understand the main advantage of PWA, so it worth to mention again what PWA is just the existing site itself with some little additions and it does not require a lot of development or support and it's a huge advantage over native apps discussed before. And this topic is about PWA, not standalone apps.
    PWA is already supported in iOS 11.3+

    Hi Guys IPB is awesome and far better than any other forum software available in market. IPB team working very hard to implement new feature every month i appreciate their     hard work 
    But now in smartphone world everyone is using mobile devices that have apps to access their favorite content. people don't like first open browser, then type url and then type username, password. Mobile friendly websites are no longer a solution. Forums are facing competition from Telegram groups, discord server, Facebook Groups, Whatsapp Group
    @Charles PLEASE HELP US !!!!! 
    I know it is very difficult to maintain native app. so Now companies use hybrid approach to cut cost for mobile app.
    It would be great if IPB team develop the in house Progressive Web app for IPB. IPB theme already mobile friendly so every little to do  Just need to implement
    1. Service- worker for Offline uses
    2. Push Notification for Notifications
    3. Login and signup screen (that remember the user name and password)
    Here some Key Benefits Of PWA over Native App

    IPB4 team already have brilliant javascript developers. I think it would not too difficult for them to do this.
    I would like to Pay for this feature separately  if it will be developed. It would be Milestone for IPB 4 as compared to other forums software.
    Others IPB members if you are agree please vote this feature as much you can and share your's feed back too and don't Forget to Participate in Above Poll Question

    1. I applaud you for starting an IPS 5.0 feedback topic before me.  Props to you.  
    2. Customizable homepage - no.  I want to control the display and presentation (and I will admit, the ad placement because I'm a greedy admin farming my user's data.  Take that GDPR!).  
    -- 2a. I'm okay with personalizing the content on the page. For eaxmple, pushing content from followers or prioritizing popular content for more interesting and relevant content.  But not the overall layout.  
    -- 2b.  If this were Blogs or Profiles that are tied to the user, I could understand.  Those are "individual spaces"in the where it makes sense to give more design control.  But again, not the homepage which is a community homepage.  
    4.4. See how I skipped to this number.  IPS is taking it's sweet time.

    Hi all,
    I have a request that will only take a few minutes of your time, and will give you something in return.
    We're finally getting around to creating books and guides to help new customers get comfortable on the Invision Community platform.
    I'm looking for a few positive quotes and 'soundbites' we can use on a few pages around the site, on social media and in these guides.
    Hopefully you've got nice things to say. @LaCollision gave us a very nice quote a while back.
    So things like:
    That sort of thing. If you have a specific use for Invision Community, then we'd love to hear from you.
    If you are happy to leave a comment, please also leave your name and URL to your site.
    If the site is safe for work, then we'll link back to it when using any quotes on our site and on social media.
    We get a fairly health bit of traffic so I'm sure you'll get a good number of click throughs too.
    If we get 20 useable quotes, I'll post an exclusive picture of Charles and Lindy holding a hotdog from 2008. I did not seek their permission before making this promise.
    Thanks for reading!

    LaCollision reacted to rgf100 in Make better use of reputation / like information   
    I've just mentioned this twice in other topics with reference to the activity streams and search functions, but I'm sticking it up separately as I really do think it's important. 
    The use of the reputation system in content discovery seems to be zero. Here we are, our members telling us 'this is a good post' - and we don't seem to be able to use that info. Right off the top of my head here are some ways we could be using that information:
    1) Show me posts with 10 or more likes - instantly you're getting a 'best of the board' feed
    2) Search for posts in topics with '4.1 upgrade failed', rank by likes - you get solutions or explanations of the problem
    3) Show me posts by users with over 1,000 likes - find out what our most valuable users are saying
    4) Blocks of most popular posts over the last 7/28/365 days - showcase to new members of our  best content; stuff to highlight in the newsletter
    5) Show me my highest rated posts - the ultimate ego-search. What do people love most about you?
    6) People who liked this post also liked...
    7) Loads of others, I bet
    I find it remarkable that the time was taken to let us filter by number of replies or views, but not by how GOOD something has been judged to be. Major missed opportunity, IMHO. 
    Now, it is traditional at this point for someone to point out that actually all of these things are possible, I just haven't noticed how. Do go ahead...

    LaCollision reacted to iacas in Clubs Enhancements   
    As you an see, the "My Clubs" section is styled oddly compared to the other sidebar. I'm using the default theme, and I customize via custom.css. If your plugin added a class to the div, I could target and style that section much more easily than I can now.
    That's my point: if you add a class like "club_enhancements" the block will be more easily styled independent of the other parts of the site.
    <div class='ipsAreaBackground ipsPad ipsType_center ipsSpacer_top'> Right there. Just make it something like:
    <div class='ipsAreaBackground ipsPad ipsType_center ipsSpacer_top club_enhancements'> Then I can style that without also changing the styling of the other things on my site.

    LaCollision reacted to All Astronauts in [4.2.3] Breadcrumb JSON empty?   
    IPS has been mucking about with the meta tags and json output recently. If you want them to warn you this is happening prior to a release being released you'll need to poke the various parties responsible.
    /* Wipe JsonLD for now until issues resolved */ \IPS\Output::i()->jsonLd = array(); That includes breadcrumbs. Sorry.

    LaCollision reacted to Joey_M in Leaderboard ideas   
    I think the leaderboard is a fantastic addition to PS, used in the right way it would promote fun engagements.
    I have some further ideas which I feel would make it better.
    Notify members that they have lead (Daily/Monthly) One thing is within many communities I am sure most are unaware of the feature, to promote the fun engagement and to encourage activity it would be nice to see members being told automatically.
    I'd like to see team members and members separated, create more friendly competition but IMO, team members within sites are always likely to lead. Just look at IPS, it's mostly staff members or popular developers, this cuts so many people who make great efforts. Within my own community, it's usually always me or one of my team members and I think it would be nice to split it up. I have some other suggestions, however these are the main areas. I'd love to see other clients make suggestions!

    Outstanding plugin, THANK YOU! 
    Would it be possible, for the regex verification, to be able to mark as a spammer, instead of putting the content under moderation review?
    That would be amazing!

    I'm still getting a fair bit of Korean spam which is being created by users who aren't on any of IPS/StopForumSpam/http:BL lists. I'm testing a feature where a regular expression can be applied to post titles and content. If it matches the post is automatically flagged for moderator approval. This means that the forum will still look clean for users and moderators can then clean it up easily with the Flag As Spammer tool. I'm testing the changes on my forum at the moment - I'll update the plugin on Marketplace after testing looks ok.

    Spam Happy is an automatic IPS rank I think, I've not got around to changing it yet
    No point not being honest about the functionality - I'm not trying to sell anything. I'm not interested at all in writing plugins/code for IPS 4 but I'm just finding it a necessity at the moment to make things work how I/my community want. And I'm geeky enough to enjoy the challenge so it's not all bad  
     We've had up to 40 of these korean spammers per day each creating up to 10 topics each. It looks terrible until the moderators clean up. So I'm trying all kinds of things to balance ease-of-registration but preventing spam.
    Here's a screenshot of the new feature as it stands:

    The php regex I'm testing at the moment is '~\p{Hangul}|\p{Han}|\p{Cyrillic}~u' which flags any Russian/Chinese/Korean. At that point the user has already registered so I'm then flagging the matching topic/post and switching it to moderator approval and the moderators receive a notification. So users never even see it. If the post is legitimate then it can just be approved. Otherwise I'm clicking Flag As Spammer which deletes all the content and bans the users (that's how I have it setup).
    Here is a screenshot of my forum right now after I've had it running for a while.
