Yes, it can be overridden. There is a configuration file for every installation.

All these options are “defaults“, as this is how the software is set up originally and the admins (or IPS for cloud installations) can override them, including the “default“ group for new members. Nothing wrong with that language.

Outdated database template for the display view would be a likely reason.

Is that because of Disallow: /*?do= in robots.txt ?

Probably not.

You can check the indexing by doing a Google site search like:

site:https://invisioncommunity.com/ "Alpha preview site now open"

That will get you exact matches from the index.

But keep in mind, there is no guarantee anymore that search engines like Google keep your entire community indexed. They probably don’t. If you use Google’s Search Console, you will probably find a lot of content on your site with the note “Crawled, currently not indexed“, meaning Google knows about the topic, but doesn’t care to show it to its users as it doesn’t consider it relevant enough.

The Pages applications allows custom templates to create the look you look you like. There is no stock template that looks like the downloads page, but it can be created as a custom job.

I would certainly support it as a feature request to IPS.

My power user keep hitting the upload limit and I reluctantly increase it again and again, because they add useful attachments, even though I don’t really want to grant that limit to “drive-by users“ who might waste space with just a few posts. Upload limits that can also take time into account would be useful.

There should be an assistant to recreate the button functionality of 4.x, which creates the necessary code automatically in the background.

The added links appear unformatted, see screen shots attached. Any idea / proposal what to do?

The links are part of an unordered list. You need to wrap the links in <li> … </li>

Just to help narrow things down: It seems you are seeing an error message because you are being logged out and that forum is not public. So, the question to investigate is: why does submitting a post kill the current session.

Can we also have an option to rename the "All Activity" navigation menu item as well

It’s just a language string (all_activity). You can rename it as you wish.

You’re at the wrong place. It’s in the front-end theme editor:

I can’t find where this image is set or how to change this behavior.

There is no setting. It’s just the result of which logos you upload. If you want a consistent logo for example, you would upload it four(!) times. Desktop/light, Desktop/dark, Mobile/light, Mobile/dark.

Oh, the Pages custom image block. I don’t think that has animation in 5.x. The feed blocks have animation though, including image feeds from the Gallery app.

On the front-end, click on your user menu and then choose Theme Manager.

There is a logo section there and you can choose logos based on dark mode and light mode separately.

Is auto-play no longer supported in v5.x?

It was actually extended. This is how it is activated in the page manager:

Can I create such emoji from my own image?

Again, no. A topic title is just text. It cannot include custom images.

Another option would be a topic prefix. I know you already use tags. You could set your PSP and Affinity tags as prefix, which moves them into the title and makes it clear which topic is about which app, even though no image is being used.

You could try to find emoji to represent the different apps. But you can’t place images in a text string.

And an app solution you could look at would be: https://invision-market.com/apps/multimedia/topic-thumbnail-r103/

This doesn’t add an image to the title, but it would allow you to set a custom image for the topic, which would show in various places.

Could be possible with CSS, but I would need to see a site with sub-forums to investigate it.

The email address is ending with @live.com

That’s likely the reason. What about other Microsoft addresses?

Microsoft blocks newsletters very aggressively unless all the authorization settings are absolutely perfect.

Try sending a test mail to https://www.mail-tester.com from the ACP email settings page. What score do you get? Any suggestion there you should address?

If they are not validating, why fight them at all? Make sure unvalidated accounts are deleted automatically after a period of time you feel comfortable with and these spammers will not be able to post and be deleted by the system.

if someone is accidentally flagged, their posts are gone permanently, which isn’t ideal.

Have a look at the options to delay the deletion. That seems to be more practical than all that moving away and potentially back.

It’s Light Text.

But if you have unusual contrasts, changing that value might make light text in other areas appear poorly. You might need custom CSS to target the breadcrumb area directly.

In the Pages template section, create a new CSS file and call it something like noCover. Add:

.ipsCoverPhoto { display: none; }

Then edit your page and activate that CSS file to be included for this page.

You could also make it a closed club, so the content only shows to people who join first.

But yeah, everything that the user has access to will show in ALL Activity. That’s by design.

A revert option is still missing. Something IPS should really address. Or just make default templates read-only.

Not really sure what it meant,

It means Google finds the same content twice and chooses to go with one version over the other. Usually nothing to worry about. The example pages will tell you more.

again, no idea what this means

It means Google hits robots.txt rules telling it not to index pages, even though they are already indexed or suggested through the sitemap. Again, normally nothing to worry about. Looking at the example URLs will tell you more. Check if you are fine with these URLs not being indexed. If yes, you can ignore it. It can help to not suggest these pages to be indexed in the first place, e.g. in the sitemap. (This will avoid warnings in the future). If you are not okay with these pages not being indexed, you would have to remove the rules from the robots.txt.
