@Andy MillneCould you elaborate further on this setting:

How can one utilize this setting above to its full effect? Some illustrative use cases would be appreciated.

How could one utilize this functionality to be able to increase the value of every match made? If this app was used on this site, would I be matched up with everyone that uses the "Meow" reaction. 

What does that say about my interests? Did I express meaningful interest in this topic? If someone else uses the "Meow" reaction a lot, do we share any meaningful interests?

How do you weigh each reaction to determine if someone shares similar interests considering no two sites are likely to use exactly the same ones?

I don't often react to posts here as there isn't really an appropriate reaction available.  Based on that I would unlikely be well matched up with anyone else here.

Has this app been fully tested to be compatible with PHP8 and 4.6.11?

It matches cases where multiple users leave positive reputation on the same content. The more content you both like the more the algorithm will weight you as having similar interests.

For example if you and I both like the same five topics we will be more likely to show to each other than someone else that has only liked two of the same topics.

The algorithm does not distinguish between different reaction types. It responds to all positive reactions regardless of the specific reaction given. e.g. you may react with a "like" and I may react with "haha" but as they are both positive interactions then the chance of us sharing similar interests is higher.

Are you using the "Custom emails" settings for the individual product? If so it is intended that multiple emails are sent.

If you would like to allow arbitrary donations then there is built in support for donations

Please make sure you have enabled the support department setting to allow associated products.

I have submitted a change to make this more clear when enabling the Show submit support request button.

Hello, I created a competition and was having problems with the photos not showing up that I used as a cover and inside the description and such. And then they started showing up with duplicates and I couldn't get rid of them. So I deleted that competition and created another one, now the new competition has those old cover photos and description photos and I can't get rid of them. Thanks for any help.

Is this still supported?

Yes, the app is fully supported. Please feel free to PM me with any support issues you may be facing.

Thanks for the update, I have reopened the report.

Thanks for reporting. This should now be resolved.

This uses the definite and indefinite article translations. '__defart_topic' and '__indefart_topic'

The custom font size is a generic page builder block setting and is intended for any body text. It sounds like in this situation it is the caption that is not being altered for you? If so you would need to specify custom css to override the value with an !important flag for the ipsWidget_imageCarousel__caption style.

HI, we have got round the last issue by doing a full reinstall.

However we have just added a competition and added a test entry.

The thumbnail is not showing however for the entry.

Here is a screenshot

Can you send me a PM with access info so I can investigate this please?

The requirement for address has been removed in 4.6.7.

It is intended that PayPal is not available where a free trial is in use. This is not supported by PayPal for this API integration unfortunately.

You mentioned above you had Adblock Plus installed. I have not replied elsewhere since posting my last reply and after following the notification from your reply the editor did not populate my last reply. Local storage is cleared after saving the post as expected in my testing so I suspect a javascript error on save potentially due to a conflict with a browser plugin.

before saving

after

@CoffeeCake With your developer tools open do you see any errors? It's possible a js error is causing the local storage entries not to be cleared on save. I'm not able to reproduce the issue however. Could you also please try with ad blocker disabled to see if it's still an issue?

The files should be removed immediately when the gallery item is permanently deleted (not soft deleted). There is also a task that runs that removes temporary files after 1 day. Temporary files can be stored if for example a user uploads an image and deletes it on the form without submitting or they abandon the upload process. 

If permanently deleting images/videos in your gallery is not immediately removing the files please let us know and we can investigate further via a ticket.

Downloads files are deleted immediately after the main file records are *permanently* deleted (not soft deleted). There are occasions where "unclaimed" files may remain however. For example, if you upload a file on the submission form and delete it or upload without submitting the form then these will be retained in case the user returns to submit later.

Those temporary files are deleted via a task after one day so if your tasks weren't running or you took your backup during that 1 day period then it would explain why you may have had some redundant files.

I hope that helps. 

Can you please provide the full json-ld snippets that are failing validation and a link to the failing page? I'm not seeing any issues with how aggregateRating is implemented

I have submitted a 4.6 compatibility update today

Hi,

The people near you function is no longer working - it is returning zero results

Sorry, there is a problem
We could not locate the item you are trying to view.
Error code: 2S136/I

If I strip of the ?do=getNewComment manually, the page loads as expected.

Not sure if this is a core or app issue, or what template and where to strip out the NewComment action.

I have submitted a new version that should resolve this issue. Thank you for letting me know.

There is a 4.5 compatibility update in review.

Does this work on regular topics as well as pages? And do you still have a 4.4 version to download?

This is intended for a single Pages database only, it does not generate a news sitemap for discussion topics. Support for regular sitemaps in topics is built in to Invision Community.

Unfortunately the 4.4 version is no longer available but you're missing out by not upgrading to 4.5 😄 

4.4 is still available and can be accessed from the changelog on the file listing.

That being the case, what exactly am I supposed to put on this field?

 

This should be the name of your publication e.g. "Wall Street Journal" although it is no longer required to exactly match the name in your articles at Google.

Recently updated to 4.5 and installed latest update via marketplace etc. For some reason the All Competitions page (/index.php?app=competition) is not showing the images as it used to do.  Tried default theme, couple of browsers (safari, brave, firefox — desktop and IOS) all no-go. Ran support tool, no-go. Display of entries fine; voting works, etc.. Pointer to what I've overlooked welcome 😛  

The app now allows you to set a cover photo image for each competition. You can set these in the competition settings in the admin control panel.

@Andy Millne, you never answered about my display issue, nor for the feature requests... it is to bad your support is so slow because the app is great and could be even better..

Please feel free to send me a PM with ACP access so I may investigate this.

@Andy Millne Is it possible to make the horizontal block a little bit shorter?

The theme is editable via the admin control panel as with all apps. Unfortunately I'm not able to assist with customization requests but there is a directory of 3rd party designers in the resources section at https://invisioncommunity.com/third-party/providers/

I am planning to update this for 4.5 but I'm not sure when exactly it will be available unfortunately. 

Sorry @christopher-w, missed that. The theme templates/css are customisable via the default template editors if you wanted to change the layout but the aspect ratio is not configurable by default, no.
