So we have this problem in our community where we developed a "dark mode" template for members who just prefer things that way, whether it is easy on the eyes or to save battery on their mobile devices. However, we've run into this conundrum and cannot seem to fix it....
We have "Paste behavior" set to Rich Text with giving the members the option to paste as Plan Text instead. If a member copies text that was originally designated as black and pastes it into the his post, the black text color attribute carries over into the post as part of that Rich Text. Members who use our dark mode template, in which the content area is black, will not see any quoted text, because it matches the background.
Obviously, we could change "Past as Rich Text" always to "Paste as Plain Text" always, and we did that, then got a fair amount of complaints, so we switched it back. It's now an issue of a small amount of dark theme lovers vs the small amount of paste-as-rich-text lovers. If we could retain the Rich Text but strip away the text color attribute that would be perfect. We just need all text to be "default" so that it shows up dark on the white background and as light on the dark background.
It there a way to make this happen by modifying something in the Invision code or the CK Editor code?

Joel got some great suggestions I hope you will implement those and I'll be looking to buy the mod too.

Core ideas for member discovery:
When a new member joins, all registered members within X distance get a notification.   After you give X (positive) reactions to the same member, you get a trigger to follow the user.   Notification every X week to recommend new people to follow.  Hovercard add follow button.    App ideas for member discovery
If user starts a private or shared Album and Blog, suggest his strongest connections On Club index or Club member page, suggest clubs or highlight followers who joined the club Topic Summary add a note that says something like "This post is popular with people you follow like Dwight, Pam, and Jim."  OR "This post is popular with people who follow you like Angela, Andy, and Toby."  That would dramatically enrich the value of the topic.  

I've played around with the new release of Connections and, like others above, I would rather be more aggressive on the location-sharingto have it auto-suggested and auto-enabled by default.  
Some thoughts:
Location sharing only becomes useful if a critical mass of users enable the future since it depends on network effects.  Right now, it is opt-in, tucked away in a sub-menu of the app, tucked away in the Connections app, tucked away in its own menu item, almost no one is going to enable it.  You really need everyone to have it turned on by default, which is why I think there should be an ACP option to have location sharing enabled by default as a choice for Admins.  If location sharing is enabled in the ACP, I do believe there should be warning message to Admins they have the responsibility to disclose the extent and type of location sharing in their Terms of Use.  I can definitely see some retail boards turning it on and accidentally exposing everyone's location on accident.   There are different levels of location sharing you can consider: none, enabled with anonymous location, enabled with disclosed location.  I believe 'anonymized' location sharing would be an appropriate default, since it still allows users to see who is nearby without disclosing the actual, specific locations on the front-end.

And that's fine, I'd never judge anyone for that, but there have been no new features...

The last added feature was in Version 1.4.1, Released May 19, 2018, New Feature: Moderators with award medal permission can now also remove a medal from a members profile.
And before that was...

Version 1.3.0, Released December 12, 2017, New Features: Member Filter Extension, Further Rules App Integration, Font Awesome Icon Support, Medals can be replaced by other medals, Medals can be awarded via the "Create Menu".

In 3 years, that is all we have got, yet just over the last year, 3/5 of us are saying the same things we wish to see. There's demand, people want your app and want to support YOU, yet we're not getting very much. And this is why I haven't bothered to renew, there's nothing to renew my licence for...

This could be one of the great apps in the market place, but you're simply not fulling your customers. But very happy to take the money.

Maybe some of us can get together and make a list of features/add-ons we want and see if they can realistically be done.

I'm not having a go at you, and life does indeed get in the way. But nothing is 3 years (a worthwhile update or feature) is a disappointment. Maybe even someone could take this off you and look after it, and they can take control and update it?

I hope everything is well, and I wish you the best.

I'm very concerned myself, @CodingJungle (Michael) has always been very prompt at replying.
I hope you're okay Michael, health comes before anything else.
Message me if you need to chat, please don't isolate yourself or try to keep busy. There are people who see you beyond your services, but as a friendly guy that cares.

Well you see that at the moment my license is expired and I believe I won't receive the the help. However after I decided to make it anyway I got the answer I was expecting - that my license was inactive and then I posted the topic here.
A day later I got answer from another person from IPS in that ticket which said:
Hello, I have taken a look at this, and it looks to be resolved in the next upcoming release.  

I noticed a bug that when you hover over the latest quizzes widget over the values like questions, time, plays and comments the number for PLAYS never pops out in the tooltip if the quizz was played at least once. but if quiz was never played - tooltip pops up nicely.

hi, I got a bug report that when you search for members in ACP and if you want to unsubscribe found members via Bulk Email Unsubscribe Members Found you always get this in next screen if you click on that text - "This action will unsubscribe 0 members from receiving bulk emails. Are you sure you wish to proceed? "
script does not pick up filtered members.

That may have been the issue. We did not have that enabled before. We just turned it on today.
 
 

You can be a bit creative using CSS 🙂
Mine is set to 55% and I have changed the CSS slightly:
.SG_record_image { background-size: contain !important; background-position: top center !important; background-repeat: no-repeat; padding-top: 0px !important; padding-left: 10px; padding-right: 10px; } @media screen and (max-width: 767px) { .SG_record_image { padding-bottom: 70% !important; } This way I can override the way the image is shown in mobile.
You can see it in effect here:

I'd also would like to suggest some sort of option to include a step on graded quizzes which would follow an answered question where it would be more explained in more detail why this answer is correct and some extra information about it including a picture and when in that screen the time would not count.
So it basically would be question page loads, users chooses right answer, clicks next, page loads saying if he was right or not and explaining the answer (time stops on that screen), user clicks next, next question loads (time counting resumes).
When creating a quiz author could choose if a question has an explanation page by each question. Meaning some questions may not have it and move on to the next question immediately.
That's probably the last thing I can think of how to add more uses for the mod. 🙂

Thanks for your suggestion.
You have an explanation in Study mode. There’s no score there so you can take hours reading explanations.
For Graded mode what matters is the Score vs Time and every step is a question/answers. It makes no sense and would require a TOTAL rewrite of “play” mode and you have no idea hoe PITA it is.  Due to that, it won’t happen.I guess I already told you this a few posts back.

@Maxxius
It works.
The major outstanding issue is that you have to run a manual update every once in awhile to fully remove people who are former but not current patreon subscribers. If you don't run this manual update they'll continue to be treated as active patrons.
Historically you may also have to go into its settings and update its key every once in awhile. Though I haven't had to do that for awhile.
Other than the odd manual update requirement, it works pretty well. It is definitely easier than handling all of the role sync manually for all users.
 

Just saw this mod now. I believe it's really useful every once in a while when status updates discussion gets too much traction. I often lecture people not to use status updates for things that might spark a big discussion. Keep updating it 🙂

Make a favor, please: test the WHOLE app this next week. It's kinda bad bumping this topic at each 10 minutes with suggestion or "bug". I OBVIOUSLY wouldn't release a version if it had a bug like that in notifications. Things are tested, of course.
Come back in a few days with things you find in one single post, clear!
Thank you.

Keep posting suggestions. Althought I don't reply to them, I'll consider them when I'll have to update the app. No ETA.

A small feature suggestion. When you are done answering all the questions you can point out how many percent of people were right of wrong when answering this question. For example:
If user answered it correctly then it would show Who is Harry Mason? ( 89% got it correct )
If wrong - Who is Harry Mason? ( 11% got it wrong too )
Or something like that 🙂

Download and open /applications/quizzes/modules/front/quizzes/view.php and find:
/* Save the score */ if( !isset( $data['quizSubmitted'] ) AND $this->quiz->author()->member_id != \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_id ) Change to:
/* Save the score */ if( !isset( $data['quizSubmitted'] ) AND $this->quiz->author()->member_id != \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->member_id AND !$data['quizInvalidated'] ) Save and reupload.
Fix is part of next version.
