Morgin reacted to Joel R in 4.3: Leverage your data with our statistic improvements
1. Saved filters: those filters are saved and usable by all Admins?
2. Top income: showing a pie chart or other relative comparison isnt very useful. You're comparing your top spenders against each other (instead of comparing your top spenders to total income). Is there like a grid view that shows how much they've spent in absolute terms?
For example, showing Daniel and Brandon as 55% / 45% top spenders relative to each other isn't very useful. But showing Daniel and Brandon as having 38% / 31% of my total income is powerful, because it shows that these two users make up the vast majority of my income (70% combined) and I need to please them versus the other 100 customers who send in crappy support tickets and complain about everything. (Whoops! I mean, those self-hosted clients are important too!)
3. Tag graphs: what about open systems with hundreds of tags? Your picture looks nice with 5 tags, but ... What about 500 tags?
4. I really like the suggestion about emailed reports.

Morgin got a reaction from ParkerPhoto in 4.3: Modernizing our Gallery
Is there really any reason people still need to be shown the file name prominently with extension and everything?
It's really the only part of the lightbox I dislike. Mostly due to the fact people tend not to cleanly name photos in the galleries I visit, so it's just a long string of stuff (usually generated off facebook or some other tool which seemingly auto generates a name). I don't see a problem in showing it somewhere, but it just gets so much (and in my humble but totally subjective opinion, over weighted) prominence in that top left position. From a UX/UI perspective, I actually don't think file names have much relevance at all now that you've got drag and drop working for image ordering - there is very little (if any) additional info conveyed by the file name.
I'd prefer (speaking as a consumer of galleries) that the caption stay blank unless a user completes it vs filling it with the filename.

Morgin got a reaction from Joel R in Team Talk: What is your hidden talent?
I like to beat the same (often wrong) point over people's heads over and over in a somewhat rhythmic fashion. Surely that translates to drumming in some capacity?

No no, we mustn't let the compliments get to their heads.
They need to get back to work.

We decided to make this change - so image001.jpg will by default be pre-filled as image001 in the description panel now

Instead of going right to "X,Y,Z still need to be done" as others here have replied, let me commend the Invision crew on some truly outstanding improvements to Gallery. Well done!

I had posted about this back in 2016 and think we need to be able to force people to put in a title for SEO reasons.

Morgin reacted to Derzhis in 4.3: Welcome to the future, blog!
Simple style changes with poor settings you present like something awesome.
And of course...new default covers... Good job IPS.

Morgin got a reaction from BariatricPal in 4.3: Automatic Community Moderation
I'm not sure if others encounter this, but my reports generally fall into two categories - spam, and "other" (abusive language, double post, user wanting to edit past the time limit, etc.)
Am I understanding the rules parameters right such that I could set a lower hide threshold for posts reported as spam (say, 2 reports for a user with < 10 posts) vs other types (which may warrant more reports to trigger the auto-hide).
Thanks!

Morgin reacted to The Old Man in So long 2017!
Great wrap to the end of the year!
Thanks to all IPS Staffers for your talent and hard work, and our awesome, community/modding heroes.
This year has had a great positive feel within the IPS community, Not just a place for tech support but a fun, helpful community that it's a pleasure to visit every day. I've actually been ill since January 2017, still waiting for an operation, lost my job of 22 years end of September due to UK austerity cuts, and at times this place has really cheered me up throughout all the anxiety and stress.
Honestly, who could forget Joel's humour-soaked coverage during the 4.2 build and release? Brilliant!
Or the way the community got behind the Black Friday initiative?
So here's wishing you all a well deserved, peaceful Christmas.

Morgin got a reaction from Michael Ohana in New: Two Factor Authentication
I have to voice disagreement. In the current atmosphere of online services, any hint of a data breach can be overwhelmingly crippling. Being able to "double lock the door" with accounts that have elevated access to the forums, even if its just mod tools (which can allow access to confidential conversations), is extremely helpful. 2FA is now a web standard for services that deal in any sort of personal information, which many of our communities do. This is a welcome addition, and the way it was implemented by IPS was extremely thoughtful in terms of the various use cases. When you say very few people need this, I'm not sure what group you are talking about. Any community of any significant size is going to be targeted at some point or another for vulnerabilities. It could be as simple as a mod who reused a password and account name from another company who got hacked and had usernames and passwords dumped who gets exploited. This helps protect against that, and I'm grateful for it being in IPS4.

Morgin got a reaction from The Old Man in New: Clubs
Will you be able to categorize one level up? (These 5 clubs are part of club category 1 since they are all related to X, these other 6 clubs are part of club category 2 since they are all related to Y, etc)
