Nice! Can you explain how you did it?

Hi @opentype and all, here's my wish list for Pages. Of course I know that everyone has different requirements and that a change from WordPress to Pages requires compromises. But let me share my complete wishlist 😉 I use WordPress in its current version. That means: with the Gutenberg editor. I quickly got used to the blocks of the Gutenberg-Editor, I like them. But they are not a must-have. A must-have is an editor that lets me formatting subheadings (h2-h6). Elements like quotations or a picture gallery must be able to be displayed even in the middle of an article. We need more possibilities for interaction in articles - polls, surveys, forms etc. Schema.org markers as FAQ or How-to must be possible. SEO features are a must, and I mean more than meta keywords and meta description as now, but also SEO title, SEO description, settings for no-follow etc. per article. Another must-have for Pages is AMP. An absolute must-have. A good thing would be the possibility to have a "Table of content" by default, which can be switched off per article. (here's the WordPress equivalent). For images in articles it is essential that additional fields are available in the editor (alt text, title, caption, credit, license, image source as URL as in this WordPress plugin). These fields should be displayed at the end of the article (except the caption, of course). Images used in Pages must be better managed and SEO-optimized. A very German problem is the VG Wort Zählpixel in posts. But this could be realized with an additional field in Pages. A special requirement for us is that the date of the last update should always be displayed in addition to the date of publication. But this can be solved in the template. Other candidates on my wish list concern the whole suite and so Pages too. Better 404 management (or anyway a 404 management) Better tag pages, which can also be found in a sitemap. With the possibility of editing. With an intro text, an image and SEO functions (title, description, no-follow settings...). And perhaps with customizable sections, for example with 5 entries each from pages, forum, clubs, calendar... Multiple Forms Better newsletter management also for automated mailings (Popular right now, Member suggestions for you, because they wrote in the same forums or clubs or with the same keywords or because they are near me...

Hi @Joel R yes, 1) is for me a pain point too. Our community is 18 years old and we have so so so much stuff. New users are overwhelmed by the many threads and other content. We're using "New Member Follow-up“ for short mails in the first days of membership. A better lead during sign-up is needed too. If I remember correctly I saw such lead during my registration at Reddit or Pinterest. But with a builtin better newsletter tool IPS would have a point. I am always jealous when I receive automated mails from other communities in my subject area. They have mails like: Stuff worth talking about this week 💥 (= Popular right now; weekly) Member suggestions for you (because they wrote about the same things or with the same keywords; monthly) Say hi to others who just joined near you! (monthly) In large communities we need a smart system for all those mails, I know. But I would prefer a builtin system because of privacy.

We have a health related community and he're the stats from December:

We should have an IPS Meetup in Germany 🙂 Then I will explain my concerns to you. Because you're the Pages man anyway 😉

The Squarespace community looks very nice 👍 I bought my first license in 2009. But whether privacy in social networks is worse many many people are using Facebook Groups or Instagram. We can make a point with independence and in privacy. My wish for 2020 is a WordPress-like IP.Pages. We need it urgently to retire our WordPress part. Now our community users doesn't find any articles who we have in WordPress – and readers of our articles doesn't find any things from our community.

And please give the club owners (and site admins) the possibility to send all club members at once an email / message to inform about news, meetings or other things.

It‘s german - and IPS is in the latest version

Hi @All Astronauts thanks for your plugin! But I've questions 🙂 and an example: What are the red marked tags with "forums/xxx"? We don't have such tags especially for forums. And the blue marked tags.. we don't have these tags in our community. The "search result" respectively the tag page is empty.

Is there a setting for that? And can an user delete his photo(s)?

Can an user remove his vote(s) to give them to another photo?

Hi @TheJackal84 many thanks for your work. 1) Do you plan a counter in the menu how much members are in chatrooms as described by @AlexWebsites? 2) I think all users should be in the "Who's online"-list. Could you implement a setting if users can be anonym in chatroom or not? 3) We don't want to have chat messages in search, activity and so on. Is it possible? 4) If an user enters a chatroom all old messages should be killed. The chatroom should be empty. Is it possible?

Is it possible to disable past messages if an user enters the chatroom? So the new user can only read the messages since his entry in room?

Hi @Joel R I'm doing 1 and 2. And I've a block with threads with 0 answers so I can help new members quickly. 3) sounds interesting, but what do you do with your described Forum flow? How much new members do you have per month? I've 70 to 100 – it's to much to welcome everyone. Now I've a mixed monthly newsletter – for the newest articles and the most interesting threads and "things" in community. I'm thinking about splitting it into two newsletters so that the community members get more targeted content. In my auto welcome message I'm inviting new members to our weekly chat. But this also means that me or one of moderators should really be in Chat on time.

Thanks for the link. In August 2019 there's a barcamp for german speaking community manager in Berlin: http://www.communitycamp.berlin/ Is anyone there (besides me)?
