Oh wow, I was completely unaware of this feature! It looks like we should have switched over to this a long time ago. Thanks for pointing it out! Is it fair to assume this will also exist in V5?

Could the editor be extended such that someone with the right permissions would see a dropdown of boilerplate actions to choose from similar to what is available in the current IP Commerce support request system?

The concept of "Publish Later" can have many applications for sure. The Support module in Commerce is deprecated now, but if it weren't, I'd say it would also benefit from being able to post a support reply at a later date/time. Lets say you're burning the midnight oil and don't want to send customers notifications at 3--4am. It would be nice to be able to schedule a reply to post at 8am instead. Maybe once V5 is out, a 3rd party developer can come up with a task scheduler that can hook into all of IPS's official apps and add the feature universally, with admin-side toggles for each application and permissions for which groups can use the feature. It wouldn't hurt to bring it up in the developer forum. 👍

I wrote a small plugin which selects account credit by default if the user has any available. This doesn't require them to use it, but it encourages it since it is already selected when they get to checkout. If this would be of any use to you I'd gladly share it.

Excellent, thanks @Marc Stridgen. Yeah the concern was primarily for the content since I generally use stock themes. 👍

If a site has clubs/pages meticulously set up and full of content, will it all carry over when it comes time to upgrade to V5?

I know I'm reaching for the stars here, but I'd like to see the ability to sell custom software via Commerce and serve it via Downloads. We do this already, but its clunky. Currently, our setup is something like: We create packages in Commerce and assign some custom fields to each When a customer wants to buy a package, they fill out the custom fields and we write the software to their specifications We then upload the custom software to a Download page, and change the owner to the customers account. Using a custom plugin, we disable the ability to edit or delete the download (things the owner of a file can normally do), and make it so each customer can only see their own files when they visit the Download page. This essentially gives us a secure download portal for all of our customers, but it'd be great if such functionality were streamlined and given the "IPS" treatment for V5!

If you mean Stripe isn't appearing as a payment method at checkout, remember to set it as an available method on each package in the store you wish to use it for.

This sounds like a net positive for developers. Two primary issues (based on observation) have always been how long it takes for IPS to approve an app, and the fact IPS takes a cut. This knocks them both out, so it seems like a win to me. I wonder though, since the Marketplace is essentially a portal for paid downloads, will this change affect the need/desire for IPS to continue developing/maintaining the Downloads or Commerce apps in the long run (V5)?

I have great disdain for Safari. lol We recently implemented some dynamic dropdowns which utilize jquery to populate the fields via ajax calls to a php script. For whatever reason, they work perfectly on windows, linux, and android using a variety of browsers, and even with iPad and iPhone, but NOT with the latest version of Safari for iMac and Macbook. I'm sure I'll figure it out, but it just goes to show Apple implements things quite differently from everyone else (even themselves! lol)

In my specific case, Facebook requested credentials to be able to see how the Facebook Connect app is using client data. This involves giving them access to the Login & Registration --> View and Manage Login Methods area - and ONLY that area. When testing the login though, I noticed the "Log Out All Users" button was still available. I'd really rather not have a Facebook agent clicking that button maliciously or by accident, so I can't comply with their request to log in and review the settings. (I'm currently waiting to see if they complain about it) More broadly though, I can imagine anyone with a need to delegate specific admin tasks would benefit from blocking this button. e.g. someone who processes reports, invoices, 3rd party add-ons (like Drip Campaigns), doesn't need the ability to log all users out.

I'd like to restrict a particular admin from being able to access the "Log Out All Users" button, however it appears there is no built-in way to do this. I'd suggest adding this to the list of things we can restrict in a future version. 👍

Thanks for the heads up!

I really would rather get to the bottom of it if possible, so yes lets open up a ticket. Thanks!

I dug around some more, and it was doing this even when we were on 4.6.10. It seems it only happens with non-US addresses, so its a rather fringe issue for us. If there is no "low hanging fruit" solution to this, I'm OK just living with it until we switch to Stripe.
