    You will get told to post it as a feature request - however common sense says it should be a core feature - its a no brainer 
    The Diva Community ? 🙄 😆

    I don't understand, really. You are telling me that a user cannot delete his account or at least request a deletion? That should be a core feature and not something that has be paid. That doesn't make sense. 
    Users will have an option to disable/delete an account. It's the normal behaviour, like adding a new user or editing it.
    This is not possible at present, only via a plugin created by Adriano Faria.  
    Thanks

    Hi Marc, our community was established 22 years ago and is a IPB customer from the early days. Almost two decades ago (19 years) we switched to IPB because we had faith in you guys. And we sticked to you because you had great and fast support.
    Because of the sheer loads of data and all the generations of versions we've seen, there are a LOT of issues and we need fast and professional support.

    I slowly get a feeling that the old, big boards like us don't get the needed support anymore.
    I had priority support before, but it's not available anymore and i can't buy email support because there's no button for it.

    WE NEED FAST AND PROFESSIONAL "HANDS ON" SUPPORT and not a debating group what might and might not be the issue here. 

    We're talking about two decades of history, nearly 70000 users and way over 5.000.000 posts!

    So, to whom can i talk to to get this problems solved?

    User sigs for links and anything else are a royal PITA with IPS - so use a plugin like this as in the vanilla software everything goes and you cannot moderate it as such

    IveLeft... reacted to FZ in Email sending limit   
    I use MailGun with IPS. It integrates fairly easily and their costs are not prohibitive. I culled my member base from about 15,000 down to 1,200 over a period of a few years, because most of the people who had registered were never really engaged with the community. I suspect there were lots of legacy bot registrations from my SMF forum that got imported way back when. 
    I try to send out a newsletter to the 900 or so subscribed members once a month and I get a bill from MailGun every other month for about $2 or less.

    And we are not alone re sendgrid:
    https://uk.trustpilot.com/review/sendgrid.com
    Only 19% of customers think this service is excellent
    Whereas 73% have given this service the lowest score possible, bad.

    Just a fact of life, you have a client/customer, no matter what minimal amount they paid or how long ago, they mostly expect you to drop everything 24/7 to sort their issue out as they are blinkered and think they are the only customer/client in the world and you dont have a life or anything better to do..... I have had quite a few of them over the years, thankfully I got rid of most of them 😆
    Hope you recovered from covid and haven't any lasting symptoms, stay safe and love the newsletters app !

    IveLeft... reacted to LiquidFractal in Hump Day: do you use the Clubs feature?   
    Sure!  I currently use Clubs (renamed "Spaces") for two broad branches of clientele: students and clients for whom I write documentation.
    For my students, I create private "Learning Spaces" with forums, a blog, and a media gallery.  Because I discuss works of fiction and films with my students, this works very well as they can post essay topics and general questions and we can have online conversations about them between tutoring sessions (which is a big selling point).  Moreover, they are required to work with films, so posting still shots in a media gallery allows us to have detailed discussions about how shots are framed, what metalanguage can be used to analyse the moment, and so forth.
    I'm also ramping up group tutoring options, and Clubs/Spaces are a natural for that  All of my tutoring is online, so I don't know where I'd be without either Clubs or the Invision platform in general. 🙂
    For my documentation clients, I use a Download center to hold versions of the projects we're working on.  I don't use forums quite as often for many of these clients (as they prefer to work on Teams), but we do occasionally use them.  Moreover, this allows me to group information on different clients in one place, and as a freelancer the Downloads component allows me to retain my ownership over the content I create until payment is received.
    I've also hosted academic reading groups who focus on specific philosophers or concepts, and, like tutoring, the Spaces come in very handy for holding conversations in between reading group meetings.  I've also used them for philosophy courses I've given in the past here at the Melbourne School for Continental Philosophy as a useful complement.

    Great idea but no we don't use it. It's hard enough with sites like Facebook taking traffic and discussion away from the main forum.

    Nope, I honesty have no idea why I would use them.  Seems like I just need a forum for a particular topic.

    IveLeft... got a reaction from SJ77 in why is it so difficult to troubleshoot root causes of high server load?   
    Thats strange - Are you logged in as root in ssh ?
    Try
    ps ax|egrep "^ PIDNAME" Example: ps ax|egrep "^ 1572"
