    In Pages this is one of the features I use the most. It would definetly be great to have this in Forums, too.

    I think it would be really nice to have the ability to create a post and schedule it to be posted at a later date/time.  This would allow me to do a LOT of work ahead of time on my forum.

    I used Sendgrid based on the recommendation of the IPS staff and because support is built into IPS. Unfortunately the price of Sendgrid is 10x that of Amazon's SES simple email service. 
    I just switched over to Amazon SES and am stuck using the SMTP route rather than via the API because there isn't native support via IPS like there is for Sendgrid. 
    I'd like to ask for or vote for IPS adding support for Amazon SES, just like it supports Sendgrid.

    While different communities may have different demographics that tend to use one device over another, the underlying global trend is clear.  Mobile use is increasing. In 2017, it surpassed desktop use for the first time. It now makes up the majority of global traffic, and in developed countries, the use is even higher.  
    WHAT PERCENTAGE OF ONLINE TRAFFIC IS MOBILE?
    In 2018, 52.2% of all worldwide online traffic was generated through mobile phones, up from 50.3% in the previous year (Statista, 2018)
    57% of all U.S. online traffic now comes from smartphones and tablets (BrightEdge, 2017)

    I actually think any UIX decisions from here on out by IPS need to be judged in the context of mobile first.

    My community is begging for an app, and I already lost ~60% of member traffic to Facebook and WhatsApp. Why? Not because my content isn't good enough anymore, but my members use my contents, and afterwards, go on with live messaging/meetings (which is an elemental part in my industry) via Facebook and WhatsApp and I lose control. I can do nothing against it. My competitors don't have contents, but they have active Facebook and WhatsApp groups. The FB/WA messaging functions are way better, and my users require an app icon to remember my site as well as push notifications to their mobiles. Not having an app is blocking my success factors extremely. I'm already considering buying an app development for my WordPress pages (which seems to be cheaper as many developers already did it for the WP platform...), but that would be the point to lose the power an IPS app would have. I'd prefer an IPS app, but I don't have ages to wait for one. We need to speed up any arrangement.
    I'd be willing to pay, too!!!

    Hi Guys IPB is awesome and far better than any other forum software available in market. IPB team working very hard to implement new feature every month i appreciate their     hard work 
    But now in smartphone world everyone is using mobile devices that have apps to access their favorite content. people don't like first open browser, then type url and then type username, password. Mobile friendly websites are no longer a solution. Forums are facing competition from Telegram groups, discord server, Facebook Groups, Whatsapp Group
    @Charles PLEASE HELP US !!!!! 
    I know it is very difficult to maintain native app. so Now companies use hybrid approach to cut cost for mobile app.
    It would be great if IPB team develop the in house Progressive Web app for IPB. IPB theme already mobile friendly so every little to do  Just need to implement
    1. Service- worker for Offline uses
    2. Push Notification for Notifications
    3. Login and signup screen (that remember the user name and password)
    Here some Key Benefits Of PWA over Native App

    IPB4 team already have brilliant javascript developers. I think it would not too difficult for them to do this.
    I would like to Pay for this feature separately  if it will be developed. It would be Milestone for IPB 4 as compared to other forums software.
    Others IPB members if you are agree please vote this feature as much you can and share your's feed back too and don't Forget to Participate in Above Poll Question
     

    Companies Using PWA!!
     
    PWA is not just another Buzz word,  PWA again transferring the power back to Web Developers which was lost during native mobile app era. I think REST API based apps for IPB not right approach, From developers point of views, it will make mobile apps  hard to maintain and compatible with every new version of IPB and updates of hundered of IPB plugins. However PWA just uses Mobile Responsive of Website.
    Forums Founders  spent both Time and money to make his/her community sustainable. sometime new users like the forums but forget url and browser history deleted,at that time website looses one member ? this same things happened with me many times and may be other members share the same experience. 
    For iOS users or Android users there is more chances, new users of clients Forum website click on App icons  (Installed by PWA ) again than open browser inside the mobile, remember the website URL and hit the enter. No matter whether  PWA support push notifications for particular mobile os or not :)
     PWA fully supported in Window 10 redstone 4. We can't ignore the billions machine running  window 10. Window 10 PWA app would be huge opportunity  to keep the website users engage with website. Just imagine clients Forums apps are installed on users PC.  Even They don't open browser and enter forum URL,  with single push notification you can make users again engage to your website ? More and more adopting the window 10

    This is my humble request to IPB team please please develop in house mobile app for IPB others wise our communities websites will loose the competition in mobile app age.
     THANKS :)

    Yes. The form data is stored in separate tables that are linked to the Template System. When you uninstall, IPS will remove those tables.
    I can look into possibly moving the data over permanently on uninstall, but it won't be a quick or easy thing, and I may not get to it for a week or two. I still have some apps that need to be updated for 4.3.

    I've only done preliminary testing but yes you should be okay to upgrade. I am coming out with Forms v1.3 soon as well, which will confirm compatibility and add a few new features.

    My custom made app (thanks fiverr) uses Google Firebase for push notifications to both Android and Apple apps that i've had developed.  I can manually send a push notification, but it would be good if a developer made one that interfaced with it for IPS.  I'd pay for the app even

    I am not a fan of this activity stream either for many of the same reasons which have previously been stated. Just so I understand, from a programming standpoint, would it be a programming skull crusher for IPS to incorporate an option in the ACP to allow the client to use the old VNC style if we feel that is in the best interests of our site ? For example, Paypal will allow you the option to choose between new PP and classic PP. I think this type of option would make many of us very happy.

    openfire reacted to Joel R in What is the point of activity stream?   
    My problems:
    One album with 100 images blows up the Activity Stream.  You get a flood of images, even though it's a single album.* Clicking IP.Gallery image in AS opens up lightbox, even though underlying premise of AS was content discovery and not content interaction.  Shouldn't it open in the IP.Gallery application? A thought regarding Images in an Album: this is the same corollary as many Posts in a Topic, and the concern of the OP.  Users may not want to be notified of each individual content item, but of the content container (eg. Album or Topic) which is far more visually efficient when there are multiple related content items in the same content container.
