You change the columns by editing the numbers in the grid class, e.g. “ipsGrid_span6”. You just need to be sure the columns add up to 12. For example: ipsGrid_span6 + ipsGrid_span6 ipsGrid_span4 + ipsGrid_span8 ipsGrid_span4 + ipsGrid_span4 + ipsGrid_span4

Maybe ask in the community help section or have the topic move there? I’m sure other there are many who deal with large files and also use Cloudflare and S3.

Don’t add hard-coded styling to posts. Add CSS classes to your theme and then call them with the custom button. Clean, simple and global. You will also have to white-list your classes in the editor settings.

I don’t think that discussions going in circles is something that would require moderation. I only step in when things escalate, because that can be very damaging for a community.

Yeah, that shouldn’t be possible. You can’t remove just the original post independent from the topic. The content can be emptied of course, which is prevented by setting the edit time to a low value.

There is no difference between topic (first post) and other posts/replies. Just remove delete/hide from the regular member group entirely. It will almost always cause more harm than good. I only give my premium members the option to hide (not delete) posts, because they are usually the trustworthy long-term members.

Tracking the events should work out of the box with a Pages database and custom fields. But putting the data of multiple records together in a meaningful way would have to be coded from scratch. Pages records are just meant to be viewed as they are. There is no calculation, no merging of data or anything like that.

Sure, and I am not asking for a drip campaign checkbox. I am asking how to have a proper workflow for everyone involved. The technical ability alone to push an email through Zapier isn’t enough.

There needs to be freely given, specific, informed consent. That is why I have an opt-in checkbox for bulk mails during sign-ups, but there is no checkbox for a drip campaign or similar uses. So, as a user, I have not freely given consent, I have not given specific consent to the drip campaign, nor am a properly informed about having my personal data processes by third-party providers (like Zapier/Mailchimp…), which is certainly relevant in regards to GDPR. Google got a $50 million fine a while ago because of this. They did ask for consent, but the kept it too vague. The distinction between ads and “helpful information” also doesn’t exist this way. If I run a website as a business, then everything I do is a business activity. If I try to keep my users active with drip campaigns, that a business activity. It doesn’t matter if the specific email tried to sell something or not.

As mentioned before, I don’t see how these options can be implemented legally. How do these methods ask for consent to receive multiple emails in the future? How do we get consent to have the email (i.e. personal data) routed through multiple 3rd-party services in the background? What happens if users turn off notifications/bulk mail in their account? How do we stop the drip campaigns then? What happens if the user deletes their account entirely? It’s 2022. This approach of “you registered, now we can shower you with emails” luckily ended when GDPR became legally binding. I don’t like to be on the receiving end of such unwanted emails and therefore I also don’t want to send them out unless it is legal and there is proper consent.

Then you can probably convince IPS to add that feature natively, because I am not aware of such a feature in Invision Community. 😉 I replace the language strings “email_reg_complete” with a long welcome message. The default “Welcome to %s and thank you for joining” is rather pointless but it goes out anyway. So I make use of that.

Agreed. Minor corrections: viewing alone doesn’t create an invoice, but starting a checkout. The invoice should be created at the last step of the checkout when the users clicks “place order”. That’s when the purchase becomes legally binding for both sides. It is NOT necessarily the moment of payment, as there can be payment options like “manual wire transfer”. The invoice wouldn’t be delayed in this case. It still belongs to the moment of the purchase.

It’s not “useless” just because you don’t like it. Everything that Randy said was indeed reasonable and justified. NGINX isn’t supported, so if you have problems with it, you are not getting support (here). It’s as simple as that. Your only argument, which you repeat over and over again is that it “used to work before”. But that argument is flawed, because the fact that it used to work before doesn’t mean that IPS is responsible to keep unsupported features working. If anything, you were lucky that it used to work before. Let me try it with an analogy: You use a foot path along my house where I placed a sign “private property. Use at your own risk”. When I decide to completely shut that path down after a couple of years, you can’t say “but I always use that path. You must continue to let me walk there”. It doesn’t work like that.

Pretty sure this is working as intended. You can see it here on the forum as well.

Such claims need to be tested scientifically. There is no way to test this for yourself and actually come to useful conclusion. Any effect of such a change, positive or negative, will be subtle and there is no way to assess the difference yourself. You will be “primed” to perceive the supposedly improved text as better and possibly come to that conclusion just because of this priming. That’s why science uses double-blind tests, where you don’t know what is actually being tested. And reading speed isn’t reading comprehension. Even if the method would actually make you faster, it doesn’t mean you actually understand the text just as well as when you would read a normal text. There are also confounding variables, like the font weight. The website shows a very light text and then the “bionic” text with some letters being bold(er). Maybe the problem with the light text is that it is just too light and the reading improvement comes from the bolder letters – not their “bionic” distribution. Such things must be taken into account and tested for. And from my experience with reading research, the entire premise is highly questionable. The focus points we use while reading depend on many things: personal reading experience personal understanding of the specific sentence you are reading the text layout (typeface, length of line …) the reading conditions (reading distance, lighting …) This “bionic” approach tries to force focus points on all readers of a text, independent of their reading experience and how good they understand the text. I don’t see how that can work. If the focus points don’t match what one personally needs, there can’t be a positive effect and it is actually more likely to see a negative effect caused by forcing focus points in the wrong locations. But I guess the makers of that product don’t really care as long as they can sell their API access. If they would care, they would have started with proper scientific testing, not with sensational claims distributed through general media outlets.

It’s all admins.

And what exactly is the question? Requiring admin approval is a checkbox in the database settings. That will send out an email by default.

That’s not true. Here is an example from one of my communities, tested again just a second ago. Achieved just using Invision Community with the PHP mail option. (But optimized with SPF, DKIM and DMARC records.) Technically, there is no such thing as a “PHP mail” or an “SMTP mail”. Those are just different ways to initiate the email. But no option is intrinsically better or worse. But if you are fine with using SMTP, I guess we don’t need to debate these things.

Yeah, that’s a terrible score. Switching to SMTP will probably fix it, but it also has disadvantages like slowing down replies. You can probably also get a perfect score with PHP Mails, but that will depend on your host, your DNS settings and so on. I won’t be able to tell you how to do it from a distance.

What’s the exact error message? Try sending a test mail from the ACP to https://www.mail-tester.com and check the results.

I see this functionality frequently with bigger shops. I might see prices in US$ as a guest, but when I create an account, I am actually forced to pay in Euro, which sometimes can be confusing/disappointing as the price increases this way. But from the point of view of the shop it can certainly help. I rather have EU customers pay me in Euro directly instead of giving them the choice to pay in US$ and so the money gets converted twice before it reaches my Euro bank account. Would certainly help with my bookkeeping.

Typographer’s nightmare.

Yeah, this could work with the “Must associate” option as mentioned.
