Thanks for clarifying, Matt. Now I just need to fix the logo situation on the Hive and I will be happy to make the announcement to my members.

As mentioned above, it doesn't work either. I tried.

I don't want to upload my files here for the whole world to see. It is a plain old logo. I tried in .png and then I specifically made a .jpg after reading that somebody else was having the same issue. I tried to add the widget for the Community Hive in the main sidebar of the home page. It just doesn't display anything. When you have it working properly I might give it another go, but I don't have the time to do IPS troubleshooting now.

Problem #1. All posts being made on the blog post here have to be approved by a moderator. They never seem to be approved unless there is a secret handshake I am missing. Problem #2. I Upgraded the forum software, enabled the Community Hive thing, went through a whole bunch of hoopla to register, etc, but when I look at my forum's feed on the Community Hive platform there is some Doris with a big black beehive like hairdo instead of the logo that I have tried to upload no less than 6 times (in both .png and .jpg formats). Problem #3. I added a tag for my community to be "discovered" but when I try to search for that tag in the discover section it shows ZERO results. My community is not appearing. Problem #4. How do the members of my community even get to know about this community hive. There is no button on the posts to show that they can follow the website there. I can only assume that this has something to do with the fact that I am using a 3rd party theme. I'd love to be able to get support for this ,but it brings me to... Problem #5. IPS have shut down the marketplace so I can no longer get support for the theme I have been using for the past 5 or 6 years. Does this mean that I must now change the entire look of my community just to be able to use this feature? I really hope that somebody here can explain in normal terms why we are going through all this pain with IPS. Where is the gain?

Thanks for the input. Well that sucks. Another thing to dislike about this company.

I have a spare license that I am not using and am unlikely to again. If I can find a buyer am I allowed to sell the license to them and transfer ownership of it?

It didn't work that way when I made the changes. As soon as I input the digits into the first field the pop-up for re-building the thumbnails triggered.

The highlighted ones.

I think I figured this out. The compression settings were OK, but I had my thumbnail dimensions set to 240x240px in the Gallery settings and it seems that those were being enlarged to whatever the system shows thumbs at when viewing a gallery. I changed the dimensions to 400x400px and they look a lot better now. That said, I think there is a bit of a bug in the ACP when doing this. I have noticed since the last update that I have to change settings twice (everywhere) before they reflect as changed in ACP. Also, when you change one field in the thumbnails dimensions it wants to rebuild the thumbs before you can change the second field.

85% is the setting. That really shouldn’t be degrading the thumbnails to that extent? The full size images are looking fine.

The title in the browser. I need to update it, but just can’t see where I did it before.

All the thumbnails in the galleries are very soft and appear out of focus. What is causing this and how can I fix it?

I have a little slogan in there that I need to change and I can’t for the life of me figure out where I changed this.

I don't know much about PHP coding, but this looks like it can only be related to the math behind randomisation and how this is being implemented.

I'll have to write them down then over a few days, but just don't have the time to expend right now. I only look at the site once or twice a day.
