Remove a feature in Club area
@LIVIO If I understand you correctly you could create a member group and exclude any features you don't want members to be able to add. See below: Not sure how you can exclude "Pages" as I don't see that as an option to include/exclude.

Sub sections for clubs
Here's an option if you have pages: You could use the menu app to create a pull-down list of club categories. Click on the appropriate category and the member would be directed to a Page using the app above that could further classify the various clubs your site offers.

Upgraded to v4.7.0 beta 9, columns did not exist in Statistics table
Same thing happened on four of my test upgrades so it's not a one-time occurrence.

Who can see who is in this club - Setting not being honored
I've toggled the third-party "Improved Clubs Ehancement" app off and on over the past few weeks while extensively testing club functionality. Sometimes I would see the behavior above and sometimes I wouldn't. I thought I had disabled the third-party app on all my sites earlier today and it looks like one site (the one that I made the screenshots above) hadn't actually been disabled even though I clicked on it. Any site where the app is enabled the above behavior presents itself. The moment I disable the app the above behavior disappears. I have gone ahead and filed a bug report with the developer. Go ahead and close out this support request.

Improved Clubs Enhancements
I narrowed down the cause to this app. When I toggle your app on or off the behavior appears and disappears. Please look at why your code is interfering with the IPS code.

Who can see who is in this club - Setting not being honored
The anomalous behavior I'm reporting isn't just on one site but is showing up on sites running 4.6.12.1 and 4.7 Beta 9. Member 1 & Member 2 are members of the club, whereas Member 3 hasn't as of yet joined. None of the members are moderators, as such, none should be able to see the member list. When I select the "Club Moderators" as shown below, the setting isn't being honored. There shouldn't be any members listed in the three crossed out boxes.

You can modify the "Links Directory" to display whatever labels you want via the translation tool. I've provided a link to the help guide below to assist you through the process.

Pay users for posts
IPS has some tutorials here: https://invisioncommunity.com/4guides/ There are a number of IPS authored blog posts around community engagement as well as numerous forum postings by IPS or customers. If you choose to explore the Members Shop route, there are support forums for each product you can read through and ask questions. Help will sometimes be offered in the forums for this or that question you may have, but ultimately it will fall upon you to figure out how all of the pieces fit together to serve your needs. I've simply offered up "some" possibilities that you might explore.

Of course, you could use the built-in Achievements system and implement some very specific reactions for members to gauge the value of each posting. Members achieving various Achievement milestones would be awarded in some fashion by the admin team. This would be a very manual process for the admins as they would have to keep up with who had reached what milestone and what incentive to award but it wouldn't cost any additional money to implement like the Members Shop would.

It's not the post count that matters but how engaged the membership is with the content posted. If members drop by and contribute meaningful content, then those individuals should receive some form of positive reinforcement. You might consider looking at Members Shop and its addons. You might be able to craft some sort of incentive program to drive meaningful engagement. Some people like bright and shiny things such as awards or other visual recognition for their contributions and some might be motivated to become more engaged via accruing points that can be redeemed for something of meaningful value. You might consider working with a couple of sponsors who offer up some kind of product or service that you can dangle as a carrot to your membership. This is a good way for some companies to reasonably advertise their products.

Lost Formatting in ACP
The problem continues to happen and on multiple sites. I will bend over backwards to help troubleshoot where I can but as I don't have an excellent grasp of CSS and no experience with the dev tools, I'm not going to be too helpful without further guidance from someone at your company.

Deleting Club Page Doesn't Delete Just Generates an Error
I've done some extensive testing of clubs over the past week and noticed some anomalous behavior around the use of "Pages" other than not being able to delete them. Not sure if this is due to other club code interacting with the "Pages" code or the anomalous behavior is only related to the "Pages" code. So, it's in the realm of possibility that there might be one known issue as noted above and another one yet to be fully identified. If the developers are already reviewing the club code, they might keep in mind that there may be something else amiss and be more mindful with their review. They might spot something they might have otherwise overlooked if they were solely focused on addressing the bug I initially reported.

Deleting Club Page Doesn't Delete Just Generates an Error
As we don't know the extent of the problem related to "Pages" it's hard to gauge this bug's potential negative impact on other club functionality or third-party apps that integrate with Clubs. Some guidance from your development team on this issue would certainly be appreciated by developers and customers alike.

Deleting Club Page Doesn't Delete Just Generates an Error
I experienced this bug last night and knew that IPS would want me to reliably duplicate the error. I installed 4.6.12.1 fresh on 4 different test sites. The only configuring I did was to setup a Cron job and to name the site in the "General Configuration" screen. i did not install any plugins or other marketplace apps. I went ahead and created a test club on all 4 test sites and then proceeded to create multiple "Pages". I then attempted to delete them by doing this: The following screen popped up. I went ahead and clicked on the "OK" button. An error message is consistently displayed. A screenshot will be provided below. I created "Pages" and attempted to delete them multiple times on the 4.6.12.1 install. I then went ahead and deleted all of the clubs and error messages from the ACP. I then updated to 4.7 Beta 8. I created 4 different Test Clubs on each of the 4 test sites and proceeded to create lots of "Pages" and attempted to delete them. I consistently get the error noted above. All told I tried deleting 40 different "Pages" with the same errant result. These are all on test-install sites, so you don't have access details in the ACP. If you want to take a look at any of my sites let me know and I can provide you with login details.

Lost Formatting in ACP
If it had only happened once on each site and on one browser, I would have marked it down to a random glitch and not reported it. But as it has happed more than once on all 8 sites something is amiss. Whether the root cause is attributable to browsers or to your code it's an issue you should be aware of.

Lost Formatting in ACP
NO That's just the thing, I can click around for hours or several days in a row and everything works as expected. It isn't happening on just one of the 8 sites I'm testing but all of them have exhibited this behavior (more than once) over the course of the 4.7 betas. When this errant behavior strikes on one site, I will have visited the other seven sites soon after and none of them went into an errant state. The same browser condition, no changes to settings or clearing of browsers. The problem isn't occurring on just one version. I have two duplicate test sites made up of 4 servers each. One running 4.6.12.1 and the other the latest 4.7 beta. I do this so that it is much easier to duplicate issues prior to submitting a bug report to you or to a third-party developer. When I make changes on the 4.6.12.1 site I immediately switch over to that site's twin running the latest 4.7 beta. In this way all of the settings on one platform get duplicated to the other. I also do this to try to figure out what has changed between the two releases. I tend to click on each ACP menu item and sub menus in my quest to discover what might be different between versions, so yeah, I dive pretty deeply into the ACP. That's what a beta tester does. I also clear system caches prior to embarking on any testing.
