AdSense has announced a new version of auto-ads with a lot more control options. Any experiences with this?

I want to apologize for my lack of interest in this. it wasn't intentional, i started work on fixing it, got caught up in work and other projects and just kept back burner'ing the fix, to the point i honestly just forgot about it. I'll honestly start working on it again tonight, and hopefully will have these issues fixed ASAP. I'll see about getting any one who has been affected by keywords renewal period extended for the last 3 months, if i can't, i can offer credit on my site for purchases or renewals on my site.
again, i am sorry that its been so long and a show of no interest from me. 

Please make it happen. Not displaying the information is not a solution to the problem.

New Improved Clubs Enhancements has been released.
Now, as promised, I'm working hard on version 2.0 of Classifieds that will bring many of the features that have been requested.
I've no ETA but expect a lot of good things very soon.
 

yes sorry...
Noted.

Looks very nice. I like the idea and would share the costs if someone do it. Actually the default profile view of IPS is a pain 😞 

4.4.4 Sees Grammarly disabled - I must admit I never had any problems or issues using Grammarly in any iterations of the IPS suite nor in any of the apps.  Since it is now disabled it has compelled me to use another called Ginger, which whilst good, it is not as good as Grammarly.  I can only say thank goodness that I did not upgrade to the paid version or I would have been out of pocket as I only use it on IPS sites.  With this in mind, is there not an opportunity to discover what issues are prevalent with Grammarly and can they be surmounted?  I would love to see this come back.
With thanks

Hi, 
I'm looking for some customization done to my website. Specifically I need the profile pages to look more like a "dating site". 
A screen shot is included to give an idea. Nice size profile picture. Basics can be the profile questions etc. 
The rest of the features IPS offers can remain as available tabs [activity etc]. But when visiting the profile page this is something I'm looking for:

I wonder, how it can help. This should result in a lot of Excluded URLs due to "Alternate page with proper canonical tag". Every post and comment has a canonical tag in the header pointing to the page, so it does not really make sense to submit them to the sitemap.

Those pages should not be indexed.

Changelogs for the upcoming Clubs Enhancements 2.0 
BUGFIXES
1. Migrate items to club not add all users
2. Double "overview" bug
3. Email notification issue on Message member
NEW FEATURES
1. Plugin conversion to application
2. Clubs Enhancements and Improved Clubs (IC) merged
3. (IC) Blocks Manager for Clubs (acp)
4. (IC) Extended Blocks Manager for Club Leader
5. Added HTML block (adsense, banner image...)

ACP EXAMPLE:

FRONTEND:

5. Hide members list in the sidebar when the "Display Club information" is located "In the header" (bluto request)
6. Ban Member - add moderator permission to ban/unban members (prov only admins can ban/unban)
7. Ban Member - Give the option to ban from ALL CLUBS or from specific clubs
8. Ban Member - Revamped Banned Members Page
SOME SCREENSHOTS:


OTHER
1. Removed reorder&delete features (core features)
2. Removed "Restrict Number of Clubs per member" (core feature - group settings)

I have several cases eg real names, obsceneish names, address names, otherplatformusernames and so on.
Valid reasons to remove their previous user names. Removing old user names needs to be a core function, like it once was. No ifs or buts about it.

Tags are essential for searching our community (and many others) so it would be great if ADMIN had the option to set the default Searches to include Tags. I know we can access tag searches, but that's not an intuitive or easily accessible search for function.
Thanks!

Updated to 2.0.5
New Features
Added the ability for admins and moderators with edit permissions to drag and drop the question & answers to reposition them on the list ( This is on the front side not the ACP ) Re-wrote the JS for toggling the answers so it is much cleaner and smoother Bug Fix
Added the missing language strings

@ Gabriel Torres  This app does not work well with large communities. I had problems installing and once installed it locks the tasks. I gave up...

@newbie LAC, thanks! This helped to figured out that anchor has been broken due to 3rd party plugin No External Links.
@shahed, thank you! But my editors will not use wiki markup. It is just too complicated to learn it 
My walk-around to avoid editing HTML: I have created a custom button for the anchor in the editor.

This button is now available in Pages to set the target of the anchor. When adding link, the editors now just add # with anchor ID. This works. 
 

I wonder how IPS creates the ToC here: https://invisioncommunity.com/4guides/welcome/install-and-upgrade-r259/
 
 

No, I don't believe it is on the listing (this part of the integration is done in the classifieds app anyway), I also probably wouldn't advise it, Feedback has quite a lot of data to show and a listing is an already cramped space to show information about the item.

Yes, you can see ratings also on advert view, I don't remember about listing @stoo2000

I have figured out that there is no meta description for the links with /page/XXX at the end
topics http://www.example.com/forums/topic/17589-whatever/page/XXX article comments http://www.example.com/articles/category/article/page/XXX blog entry http://www.example.com/blogs/entry/17589-whatever/page/XXX and so on I have lot of pages where Sign in... and menu structure is taken into description by Google instead of the content of the page. It looks messy in search results and does not attract users to click.

If I'm correct the 3.4.x branch had other pages indexed too. Everything was like. First page had 'Page 1 of 3' and the first post text. Page number 2 had 'Page 2 of 3' and the first post text of the second page.

@bfarber, it is not about how forums are set and visible to guests. There is a feature in Adsense, where you can provide access credentials, so that adsense crawler can login and see the content in the login-protected area. But this does not work in IPS. Even providing right credentials, login attempts of adsense crawler fail in IPS.

I am not sure if you aware of: on mobile the categories are shown BELOW the clubs list. It should be above as nobody would scroll down in the hope to find category selector 

I'd like to officially lend my support for Amazon SES. 
SparkPost currently costs me $20 / mo on a plan for 50,000 emails (and this was after I suppressed the majority of my email notifications to switch to a lower plan).  The equivalent cost on Amazon SES would be $5 / mo.  This represents cost savings of $180 / yr.  
The cost savings are too big to ignore for independent communities.
