  1. Once you own a IPS item, you can access your "client area" which is a list of all the different licenses you own and/or cloud hosting you own through Invison Power Services. You can add new products at anytime and they will simply be added to the master list of licenses. Within those overall licenses, you can add on items (such as adding commerce or pages to a forum license) and manage items like the domain name, support, etc. for the individual licenses themselves. Overall the buying process is the same and IPS does a very good job at keeping numerous projects separate, but also easy to manage together.
  2. That was my thought and still is, but I didn't get much help on the support forum, so figured I would try here as well. Sadly I don't even know how tasks are handled via the cloud as all it says is "Community in rte Cloud Tasks".
  3. Hello @opentype, I have been having an issue with records getting published without actually getting published and then actually "going live" a few hours later. Originally I though it was an RSS feed issue and reported it to IPS Support here: However, it appears that is only relates to the database that I use SuperGrid on and is corrected when I change the database templates back to IPS ones. The issue at hand is that when I schedule a Record to go live at say 8am, it will do everything it should appear to be live at that time for me. However, if I login to a different account or view as a guest, the article is still hidden. IP.Pages believes the record is live via both the article posting info and the publish date in the Admin CP, however, it is still acts hidden and will not actually do any of the tasks it should when a record would get published (like be visible or add itself to the RSS feed). However, in a few hours, the article will go live and the publish time will reset to whenever that is and everything will run as it should after that point. I have tried: Clearing the system cache Uninstalled Supergrid, deleted the templates (IP.Pages templates), cleared the cache, and reinstalled. I use Supergrid on nearly all my sites and this is the only one with the problem. It is also the only one I have on IPS's Cloud.
  4. I will keep an eye on it and see if I can track down the problem better.
  5. To put some times on the issue. The article was posted at 0800 via a scheduled post. The first sighting of it from the RSS was on Feedly at 1331 This is not my normal experience with any RSS feed including my numerous IPS feeds. At the same time, the article that was published and live to the community at 0800 is now relisted as a 1323 published time. i am utterly confused on what is happening here.
  6. If the table is lost, deleted, or corrupt then restoring from a backup is about the only option to restore the tables with the data in them.
  7. I use RSS feeds from my databases (just the standard ones enabled with the database itself) and it often takes hours, if not an entire 8hr workday for new content to get pushed to the feed. I never had this issue before moving to the Cloud. I don't see any setting that could effect this either. E.G: I am still waiting for this article (https://www.uncrownedgaming.com/home/esports/the-call-of-duty-league-championship-kicks-off-today-r80/) to get pushed to its RSS feed (https://www.uncrownedgaming.com/home/?rss=1) and it has been almost 6 hours since posting. EDIT: Actually once it does go to the feed, the feed does not seem to be pushing it out anywhere. Even basic readers like Feedly are not picking up the new articles once they are added to the feed for an extended period of time. Which I don't have any issues with on all my non-cloud projects or any RSS feed to be honest.
  8. Ok, I will look into them. Otherwise the core problem seems to have been solved 👍
  9. Okay, it appears I never added a tag for analytics into my tag manager account. Which doing so seems to have corrected the issues I have been having. Popups and drop-downs are working for me on all my browsers at this time. Can we back track to this issue quick? I can not see the errors myself and while the ads appear to run fine, it would be nice to get any issues fixed. I just use the given adsense code directly in the advertisements built into Invision.
  10. Tag manager is activated. Advertisments are disabled. Problem is still persisting.
  11. I have uninstalled SuperGrid as it was the last marketplace item that I added and no changes to the issue.
  12. Not the Tag Manager. Here is what I have for integrations: GeoIP Service Spam Defense Google Maps Zapier SendGrid Google Analytics IndexNow
  13. Both browsers are up-to-date and cleared (including the sites, caches), problem remains. Also adding in Microsoft Edge for the same issue and even exists on Chrome on Chrome OS Also I have noticed that opening the popup for signing in, now also takes you to a new page and not the drop down box.
  14. I find myself unable to edit images in the editor of my site. It uploads without issue and all other features seem to be working, however, when I double click on the image it just sends me to the image itself and not the edit box. It is reproducible on all themes, including the default. Seems to be affected everywhere on the site I can see a quick "There is was a problem" popup right before it sends me to direct image, but I don't see a code (although it is very fast). Same issue in Firefox and Chrome. I have noticed that my "copy to database" popup box is no longer a popup and takes me to a new page to select the database and category, so not sure if that is related. Only have two marketplace items and it continues as an issue if they are disabled (SuperGrid and Chatbox). Affected Site: https://www.uncrownedgaming.com/
  15. Invoiced for payment subscriptions seem incredibly outdated in 2022. So throwing my support in to get this fixed as it is absolutely not how the average user would expect the feature to work.
  16. Invision Cloud is quite nice and I find it enjoyable for my communities. I also don't find the pricing that bad as the starter plan with fairly close to a full license key renewal fee anyway. However, the current Cloud packages are all focused on the full suite and this seems like a bit of a missed opportunity as while it makes sense for sites using the majority of the features, it does not exactly hit the needs of many smaller projects. Invision's Page application has always been underrated in my book as it is a great CMS tool and easily a full featured website builder that can compete with basically everything on the market in some regards. The problem is that $50 a month simply does not compete with basically any entry level CMS/website builder on the market and this, at least in my opinion, leaves a huge customer entry point for Invision community closed. While I understand a lot of users on here are focused around their forums and such, a cheap cloud based content website what can later be expanded into the full cloud package as a brand grows seems like a highly reasonable growth pattern of a brand/website. Getting these customers onto a Pages Cloud service is a great way to ensure they stick with Invision once they need a forum, store, etc. and press that "upgrade to the full cloud" button. While the alternative of already having an established website on ABC Website Manager and needing additional services, will likely not bring them to Invision as it comes with the cost of a full Pages App and other utilities that will likely compete with what they already pay for. Just my two cents for a item I would certainly use on my smaller projects that currently do not use Invision, although I do have to add that my hopefulness of using Pages for those projects is likely affected by how much I use Pages in my already existing larger projects.
  17. All I had to do was move my class to the header? I feel dumb. You are my hero today! Worked like a charm!
  18. Hello, I am trying to add some videos to my Pages and I keep running into the issue of the embedded videos not fitting correctly. I need the videos that are placed via the Page Builder: Media Embed block to allow a custom width as enabling an unlimited width via my Admin CP settings makes all the topics that contain videos a bit overkill in size. I see that I can add custom css to the block, but I do not see how I can change the class and the custom css does not override the theme's css coding from what I can tell. I created an HTML block for some videos and gave them a class with custom css via the theme and all that worked well, but this is not ideal for my use. Am I missing something simple that would allow the block to bypass the Admin CP's maximum video width setting?
  19. In the actual content of the site? E.g. if I add "I posted this at 6:21 EST today", I do not believe it will update to PST for west coast viewers looking at this post. I know it will do it for system items and calendar events, but I am looking for a way to add that function into blocks on the Pages App.
  20. Hello, I was wondering if there was any simple way to place times within content (page content blocks, announcements, posts, etc.) that would use the user's time instead of a hard typed time. Essentially instead of me having to place "5pm EST", I could just use a tag or something to place 5PM and it will factor in the user's defined timezone or simply use the forum default time for guests and display the correct time? I mostly need this for the Pages app, so a coded solution is fine, but I am very curious if there is any sort of built in feature that I am missing. Even for a coded solution, I am not sure how to push a time based on their account time setting vs their IP timezone. Thank-you in advance.
  21. I was working on some Zapier integrations and stumbled upon Invision Community being an app and got super excited. I'm still excited seeing that it is now in Beta here and moving forward. I know this might not be the best place for a suggestion/back, but I truly hope that I can pull feature images from articles as that would allow so much automation when it comes to image only social media. Currently the RSS feed app does not know what image to pull and I have yet to find a work around. (I'm self hosted, so can't try the app yet).
  22. Yes, "image citation" was just the generic way for me to list all the different ways to provide the license information for stock image sources and licensed images, the credit for public domain images, internal staff copyrights, etc. It looks like this site even uses a custom css solution in their staff blogs and such.
  23. Hello, I was wondering how others handle giving credit to images used in Invision Community as a whole, but mostly in records in the Pages app. We post a lot of news articles and many are sourced from other news articles to put an article together and citing these sources is easy if needed, but images seem to be a bit more difficult. Most articles on other software will cite the image credit directly below the image, but there does not seem to be a great way to do this in Invision. I was wondering how others have overcome this issue. Do you just drop the credit in the bottom of the article, or have you come up with a better way? Yes, we do try to use custom and in house images whenever possible, but getting a 1st hand picture of a phone sitting in a Chinese factory floor is not always possible. So no need for that reply.
