  1. Please move this to the feedback thread then. Thank you.
  2. Suddenly it's 2018. This isn't directed at you Jim, but at the decision-makers at IPS as a whole. The fact that a vendor of web-based photo gallery software doesn't officially support WebP in 2024 is, frankly, absurd. And it's absurd for several reasons: It clearly works. I wasn't even aware that webp wasn't officially supported (or I didn't remember) because I've been uploading webp to my galleries for a while now, and it has been working nicely, and will continue to work nicely in their new S3 home. The standard was announced in 2010 and went to stable release in 2018. There's been 8 years to get onboard. Much of the web has been using it for years, especially the big, picture heavy sites. The search engines penalize us for using heavy images and I personally see a significant performance difference on my own site with webp. The only thing that broke here was that I moved storage locations, and the url update task isn't processing the new location properly. The images are still attached properly to the article, they just aren't embedded correctly.
  3. Huh? I'm not using any third party here for this. 1. I upload them as webp to a gallery. 2. I use the "existing attachment" method to insert the images into my article. 3. Profit. This has "just worked" like this for a while. The only thing that has changed here is where those images are stored on the back end. I agree that this only seems to happen with webp images, however, the articles were fine until the S3 move and no third party was involved.
  4. Here's a better example. https://www.cheersandgears.com/articles/news/infiniti/the-2025-infiniti-qx80-starts-the-brands-product-renaissance-r6683/ I manually fixed the last image in the article. The other three have not gotten the updated URL. However, if I edit the article, all of the images are attached at the bottom, and I just need to reinsert them into the article.
  5. I understand all of that. However, it did this with Amazon S3 as well. It's not S3's fault that the URL the script puts in there is wrong when the file exists as intended in the correct location. As I mentioned, if you open the article for editing, the attachment is there, and you just need to double-click it to reinsert it.* Whoops, that last sentence seems wrong for this article specifically. I will look at others. However, the desired graphic does exist at the correct location and the URL is pointing only to the top of the album URL. This seems to happen exclusively with files inserted using the "insert existing attachment" method. Files manually uploaded to the article continue to render fine. I use the existing attachment method often in order to cut down on duplicate uploads between gallery and articles. See this article for a comparison. - https://www.cheersandgears.com/articles/news/ford/ford-ev-access-to-tesla-supercharging-opens-r6671/ The graphic at the bottom was uploaded directly to the article and renders fine while the graphic in the original example was inserted via the existing attachment method. Both are on S3. That and the graphic URL being incorrect are why I don't think it's an S3 issue. I didn't expect you to be in today. 😹 I was doing some file moves that had the server pegged. It's back now.
  6. I offloaded most of my site to Wasabi-S3. I have many articles that use the "Insert Existing Attachment -> Gallery Image" function. Now that the move is complete, those embedded images do not render properly in the article. If you hover the link, it just shows a link to the top level of the album rather than the image. However, if you edit the article, you can see the proper attachment at the bottom of the article in the attachments bar, and it easily reinserts itself into the article. You can see an example of this at https://www.cheersandgears.com/articles/news/acura/a-minor-refresh-makes-a-big-difference-for-the-2025-acura-mdx-r6692/ The system tries to blame it on my template, but it happens on the default IPS template as well. This happened in the past with Amazon S3 before I moved back to local storage. Is there a way to programmatically fix this for all of my articles? My access info in my client area is up to date.
  7. I don't have anything to add for tech help except to agree with the sentiment of the title. I moved my attachments folder overnight, too. It finished completely and I see no errors... ...... only it left behind a lot of files on my server, didn't move them to S3, and then updated the image URLs anyway. This was the second attempt at a move because the first attempt didn't respect the folder inside of the bucket in the URL, but did move the files to the proper folder in the bucket. The file move process has always been a huge headache with IPS4, I hope IPS5 can be better.
  8. I sent him a PM on his website and have been waiting on verification since december.
  9. Is this plugin available for purchase at any of the 3rd party markets?
  10. I am really hoping that Invision will see fit to include a save draft feature, at least for Pages, in IC5. I have lost so much work over the years due to the lack of this simple feature. I just lost 3/4 of an article I wrote because I was going to click another button, and some menu popup jumped in front of me. But also, I have been attempting to work around this for years by setting the post date several days in the future, saving repeatedly, and then backdating it to the current time once I'm ready to publish. This workflow, frankly, is absurd in the year of our lord 2024. Furthermore, it messes with block and new activity sorting by showing those articles that originally had future publish dates at the top of the list, even if they've been read or their backdated date has passed.
  11. Should be a simple one. The main page of a club does not have an H1
  12. You'll need to make an account on your forum for Adsense and provide those credentials to Google.
  13. Also: Only allowing us to put one of these widgets on a page is a bummer. I'd like to put one in my side column set to only show for Tablet and Desktop, and one at the top of my page that only shows on mobile.
  14. Can you let us adjust the layout? or at least center the buttons in mobile view?
