Some thoughts (as one of my communities is very image heavy): 
- Make sure you and your members know that you can drag and drop into the upload bar.  You do not need to click on Insert. 
- As @Clover13 mentioned, you should target maximum image dimensions to control the idea display size.  
 
I've bucketed some different kinds of images posters: 
- The casual image posters. They wouldn't use the resize even if presented as an option.  
- The heavy image posters. These are my members who are posting 10 images per post, and making multiple posts They know about the resize option, but they're not using it. 
- The blogger. These are people writing specialized articles with custom layouts and offsetting images.  They're the few people who actually care about image alignment and image resizing.  
- The admin or moderators doing announcements.  We know all the tricks anyways. 

Go to Appearance -> Themes and click on Create New. The new theme will be original (unmodified) one.

Got Pages? In the ACP, do the following (specifics included only...if it's not specifically mentioned, it's up to you what you set things as)
Go to Pages -> (Page Management) Blocks Click "Create New Block" Change "Plugin" to "Upcoming Events" Click 'Next' Name it & add a description Go to the 'Content' tab Change "Use this tempate as-is" to "Use as a base for a custom template" Find the following: {{foreach $events as $event}} Add this below it: {{if $event->online}} Scroll down to find: {{endforeach}} Add this above it: {{endif}} Save Go to Pages -> (Page Management) Pages Click "Add Page" Click "Next" Name it, give it a filename Click "Save" Give permissions On the resulting listing of Pages, click the "Open page builder" Use the block manager to drag your new block into place on the page. There's your online events page.  

Hello, when creating a gallery category there is no way to set a category cover for it. It is only possible from what I discovered by creating said category. Then creating an album, uploading the cover image as a picture and set it as a category cover then HIDE the album. Way too complicated.
A picture that should be a category cover does not mean it should be a part of an album inside it.
Just like you allow to set covers for Forums - do the same for Gallery categories. Thank you.

It would be very useful if we were able to automate regular recurring bulk email. E.g I want to send a specific email to certain users when certain filters are met and would like to do this on a regular basis. Currently we can only do this as a one off email.

There is already the BULK_MAILS_PER_CYCLE constant to solve issues with hosts that have trouble with many emails at once. 
Equally, if not more important, is how many emails are sent in a given timeframe. It’s normal for hosts and email services to have some kind of limit in that regard, but with the way IPS sends out bulk mail, it unpredictable when these limits are being hit and there is no way around this problem when the limits are hit. 
I suggest a solution like a MAX_MAIL_CYCLES_PER_TASK constant or setting to limit the amount of cycles run each time a cron is being fired. So, for example, I could set 1 run of 100 emails with the cron running every minute resulting in 1000 mails in 10 minutes. 
I understand that IPS isn’t all that focussed on features that would only help self-hosted customers, but it seems like an easy implementation which could help a lot of users. It’s actually the behaviour that people are already expecting. 

Make sure the ROW_FORMAT for InnoDB tables is also DYNAMIC rather than COMPACT.

The current lightbox is not mobile-friendly. I often end up opening the images instead of tapping on the next/previous button.
Swipe gesture would be much better.

You won't be able to place ads anywhere on the Live Topics UI. The advertisement system has had an update for v5, but I don't think we've spoken about it much.

I think I spent more time making up fake adverts than writing about it.

I know of course 🙂 Thanks
But I love the IPS style 😞 

Would you like a little more control over the Emoji menu/search in the editor?
Features:
Ability to reorder Emoji groups You can now put your custom emoji group(s) at the top of the list, or reorder the native/Twitter emoji categories. Ability to disable Emoji groups You can disable certain Emoji groups from being visible when viewing the Emoji menu, or performing a search for an emoji Example use-case: maybe you want to retire the use of your custom emoji groups - currently, you would need to delete those groups in the ACP but that then has a knock-on effect on already posted content that may contain one of those custom emojis. With this application, you can simply disable the custom emoji group and it won't be viewable on the front-end IMPORTANT: this application doesn't stop the addition of emoji via copy/paste methods - it manages what is available to the user when they access the Emoji menu or perform a search.
Pending approval at the time at the time of this post...
 

Take a look, i think you would like the style

Hi! It would be nice if the V5 version supported the graphic format - SVG everywhere. It's a vector format that looks good virtually anywhere and doesn't lose quality! Currently, it is missing from logos, custom forum icons, favicon and many other places. It's about handling .svg graphics as well as svg code.

This is still an open bug at present

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! I can confirm this should be further reviewed and I have logged an internal bug report for our development team to investigate and address as necessary, in a future maintenance release.
 

I've tested this multiple times after disabling all 3rd party apps and plugins. I still get an error when trying to filter by:

System Log
SELECT DISTINCT COUNT(DISTINCT core_members.member_id) FROM `core_members` LEFT JOIN `core_pfields_content` ON core_members.member_id=core_pfields_content.member_id WHERE core_members.allow_admin_mails=1 AND core_members.temp_ban=0 AND core_members.email!='' AND ( !

I'm not going to do any more testing of it - better things to do with my time. 
I've reported it...my work is done.
Here are your reproduction steps, for anyone testing it...
1) upgrade to android 14
2) install the pwa (not tested existing pwa being present, no need to do so on my part)
3) open it up.
4) expect the message at that point.

It has been that way for about a decade now (since early v4 development), Signatures aren't as an important as they used to be and very often add a lot of clutter.
As a work around though; if you enable the show signatures to guests setting, that preference will be retained into a newly registered account.

That would be correct functionality.
I'm not quite sure what you mean. It is available on self-hosted. Hover over the photo -> Image Tools -> Add Note

This is old, sorry for any confusion. I have marked this internally for review.

That’s just how it works now. All working as intended (by IPS). 

I think the built-in Lightbox view falls short in some situations. To enhance the user experience, I propose the adoption of PhotoSwipe, which is a free and feature-rich alternative.
PhotoSwipe provides users with fast and smooth transitions between images, offering a more interactive experience. Additionally, features like zooming and dragging allow users to examine images in more detail. This change will make the visual content on our website more appealing and user-friendly.
With the IC 5 update, could there be an evaluation of replacing the built-in Lightbox view with PhotoSwipe?

It comes with an MIT license, allowing free usage for personal or commercial projects. For more information and to explore the details of PhotoSwipe, you can visit the PhotoSwipe Official Website.

Custom fields for every content type.  I don't know why IPS gave us custom fields for Downloads and Page Databases, but not for other content types. I can see real value in adding custom fields to Forum Boards, especially if you have certain boards that are highly-organized that can be filterable, searchable, indexable, etc.    

You should add in the Changes affecting third-party developers and designers the new parameter in the \IPS\Node\Model::setLastComment().
This is breaking/locking the apps and crashing the whole board install and requires the immediate attention of the developer.
