Wie do have this feature as well. Nevertheless, we have 3 to 5 users every week that accidentally left the club when they didn't want to. 

@Gauravk, do you use any Club add-ons?

Not sure I follow. I have a confirmation box when I try to leave a club:

 

We have the same issue. The confirmation dialog is out of view. I have reported the issue a while ago. 

I have a feature suggestion: a cover image assigned to the venue. When a new event is created with an existing venue and no cover image for the event is set, then the venue cover image should be used. Like image by default.

I am not certain if the behavior of mobile push notifications is correct. Every time I get a notification and click to view the content, the notification itself does not disappear (Android). It means the notifications are still there as if I have not yet read the content. I have to go through all notifications and swipe them away one by one. 

The behavior of other notifications (Gmail, Facebook, WhatsApp etc.) is different. Once I clicked them, they disappear from my notifications stream. This is how I would expect to have IPS notifications as well. 

Additionally, I wish the notification list in IPS would recognize that I have read the content and mark the notification as read.

Right now, if there is a notification, then:

• I click on it to view it
• I swipe it away to get rid of
• I have to open my notification list here to have it marked as read as well.

Three actions to get rid of one notification. 

Try this 

Do not use style=. Try CSS Framework https://invisioncommunity.com/4guides/themes-and-customizations/css-framework/miscellaneous-r99/ instead. See Positioning.

I get one reason why - perhaps sharing URLs in social media and elsewhere becomes a bit of a nightmare - since you get %E3%82%A2-like characters all over the place. But besides is that cosmetic issue is the only one?

This. When I see something go to _https://example.com/2-%E3%82%A2 it looks like spam for me. It looks dirty, it looks not serious for me. I cannot read, what this %E3%82%A2 mean, something harmful, something inappropriate? I believe it makes no difference for SEO though as Wikipedia uses it. 

Note: when I edit core_seo_meta table per SQL and empty the column meta_url for the start page, then it works. Compare:

• meta_url = "/" does not work
• meta_url = "" works

I have set our picks page as my start page. I have entered in AdminCP (Search Engine Optimization -> Meta Tags) a custom Page Title for the start page. It is ignored. The page title is still Our Picks. For all other pages the page title works. Why it does not work for the Our Picks?

I could imagine that as a stand-alone template product if there is enough interest. 

I had a vision. Imagine, there is an app called SuperWidgets. The app has custom templates for system widgets:

• Recently Browsing with overlapping user avatars like in SuperTopics
• Who's online with overlapping user avatars like in SuperTopics
• Similar Content like SuperBlocks
• Activity Stream like SuperTimeline

The app was submitted by @opentype in Marketplace, and I've bought it immediately. End of the vision. 🙃

Suggestion: templates for the Similar Content Widget (by tags) and Activity Stream Widget. Both default IPS templates look a bit ugly 😄 I wish there were SuperBlocks templates for them.

#2 Is the Android mobile app still available and working on Android devices? 

Yes. But it has many bugs.

3 Why has the beta versions of these mobile apps take so long?  Is it difficult to integrate IC into a mobile app? What is the story behind all this?

An app with branding and all the customizations is technically not feasible, I guess or requires tons of programmers. Right now: no customizations, no monetization, no branding. All IPS communities sit in one app like TapaTalk. To have an own app for your community only, you would have to go through Google and Apple approval process to add it to their stores. You, not IPS. It costs. 

Another question: why do you need mobile app? If it is because of push notifications, they are integrated in 4.6 without mobile app. Any other reason, you would like to have mobile app? 🙂

I recommend revive formerly known as openx. Use this since many, many years. It's free, self hosted and a lot of features. You can add the advert delivery code into the ips advertising system.

https://www.revive-adserver.com/download/

I have used it for some years. I have stopped because their code had responsiveness issues. Another issue was the slow performance at large projects. Self hosted was not enough. Cloud was too expensive. We have changed to Ad Manager. 

The earnings for banner advertisements slowed down though. Paid walls, subscriptions, affiliates, writing and featuring content - this is where we are now 🙃

Generally, I would not recommend using IPS advertisement system to sell impressions. Use duration period (number of days) instead. IPS counts impression like page views. If the ad is placed below the fold and the user never scrolls to see it, IPS would count it nevertheless. Advertisers dislike to pay for ads that were not even displayed. 

If an advertiser has own tracking code, you can use HTML/JS code for the ad to place it, so that he can see in his tracking system the stats.

I wish there were an interface where we can submit PHP hooks for the databases fields. E. g.

• onLoad
• onChange
• onCreate
• onDelete
• onClick
• and so on...

Example 1: onCreate or onChange

While creating or updating a record with a field of type Address, update another field with list of cities, countries to allow search/filter by location. 

Example 2: onLoad

Get/extract information from another tables, like showing who has added the record to this favorite list.

Example 3: onClick

Record the information, who has clicked the URL field and how often

This would boost the Pages and allow to create many kinds of interesting apps.

Note: And yes, I know that I can create a bunch of hooks where I have to restrict them to database and field. This is not the same. The hooks are separated from the field so that I have to know they are there. I have to track field key values and database IDs to be sure the hooks are executed at the right place. And I have no possibility to change them on-the-fly.

I would not use a payments processor that does not allow for standard testing practices.

I would not also, but a client wants 😄

Can you change your "live" domain with the processor, such that you set your domain to test.example.com and then once your testing is complete put it back?

Not with this payment provider. Every domain should be publicly accessible, and it takes a week or more till the domain is approved 🙈

I wonder how can I test new subscription and payment gateway.

• There is no group restriction for the subscription, so that I cannot create one just for test and special group
• I cannot restrict the payment method to special user group only
• I cannot test on test server as the payment provider does not allow other domains (only live)
• If I overcome the previous, I still cannot test on test server as the payment interface should be accessible publicly and test installation must be protected by .htaccess
• I cannot use the constant \IPS\NEXUS_TEST_GATEWAYS on live server as it applies to every payment method 

Any idea of how to create a test subscription with test payment gateway without allowing normal users to use them? 

You write on the Additional Information tab:

Adding Category images. You can add category images for the main level by adding the Category Image plugin from the Marketplace. SuperHelp will support images uploaded this way automatically.

What plugin do you mean? I could not find in Marketplace.

Which visibility setting is this?

Look here https://invisioncommunity.com/4guides/suite-applications/pages/core-concepts/custom-fields-in-templates-r327/ It is number 2 on the screenshot. I have disabled it entirely, the field is shown on the listing template despite the setting.

There is an issue with custom fields. I have fields where Show in listing template is disabled. These fields are shown in the listing template (using display view format) despite the setting. Can you please adjust your template the way it respects the fields that should not be shown in the listing? Thank you!

Try this https://invisionify.com/guides/monetize-communities/paypal-sandbox/

I have the same issue. Support says I should switch off all customization and wait till the error happens again. This is NO-GO-Solution for me, as the customizations are essential for this community and deal with user privacy. 🙃

I would like to use some font awesome icons in WYSIWYG block. I have added them via HTML source:

Lorum ipsum <i class="fa fa-users"></i> lorum

It shows as expected. If I open the block for edit, the icons are removed. I have tried to add the classes fa and fa-users to Allowed CSS classes in the editor settings. It does not help. Is there any way to use icons in WYSIWYG block?
