    Yeah, there isn’t really a good way to achieve this currently. Since it wasn’t mentioned before: you could also take a look at the “clubs” feature. That avoids the whole user group issue, as the access is then just based on the status of being a club member. Adding many clubs for many events would not be an issue.

    I also use source mode all the time. Sometimes to inspect and clean up user posts, but like Sonya mostly for Pages articles. Custom classes, custom embeds …
  3. opentype
    It will just merge the entries. Instead of seeing 5 different replies for one topic, there will be one entry for that topic.

    Instead of patching these issues, the entire functionality should probably be reimagined. Having this forum posting to begin with comes from old 3.x days where everything was centered around the forums. Having the need to have a separate comment system for Pages comes from the fact that 4.x originally allowed people to just have Pages, but not Forums. With the new licensing system, these legacy options should be consolidated into one comment system without the need for any kind of syncing, cross-posting or any anything like that.

    Sorting is only available with the listing templates, not with those frontpage/article views. One could however create listing templates that look like those frontpage/article views.

    New topics are highlighted in contrast to “just replies”. Like this: Is that what you are seeing? Doesn’t look like “almost double” to me.

    It could even be smoother than that: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/473885-feature-deprecation-discussion/?do=findComment&comment=2907946

    It’s worth noting that image processing is handled through server modules like GD or ImageMagick. It can take a few years until new formats are supported and the server packages get updated to make these changes available for hosting customers.
  9. opentype
    To achieve what exactly?
  10. opentype
    By the way: seems to be related to the height calculation in Chrome. The image is there and shows fine in Safari and Firefox for me. Just Chrome has no height for the ImageBlock section.
  11. opentype
    Yeah, that was my number one use-case for databases in clubs as well. I would have expected that this can easily be solved by turning on custom category permissions and then changing them to disallow posting outside the clubs. But for some reason, the setting is there, but with clubs activated, custom permissions for the default category outside the clubs aren’t available anymore.
  12. opentype
    Sure. First, create an image attachment in the editor by choosing the file from your hard drive. then click on it, so the image is added to the post content. Then double-click on the image. In the dialog box, replace the content of the URL field with your target URL.
  13. opentype
    It’s a browser issue. I see it frequently with Safari. There isn’t anything in the community software that can have any effect on it. The software just creates HTML to say where the image is and it is up to the browser to download it and deal with caching, download order, connection issues and so on.
  14. opentype
    Yes. Or use a third-party solution.
  15. opentype
    That’s perfectly normal. There is no problem to fix.
  16. opentype
    I’m pretty sure they didn’t phrase it like that. They probably just asked for a proper imprint with data about the legal representation, which is simply the law here in Germany (see German Telemedia Act) and not something “draconian” that T-Online made up because the don’t “like” certain domains as you phrased it. But that’s all beside the point anyway, which is that services like United Internet (GMX, Web.de) in Germany or Orange in France have a market share of over 30% in those countries, similar to Gmail in the United States. So blocking these service would be like blocking Gmail.

    A Pages database is pretty much the same as a FAQ database if you call the entries “FAQ” instead of “articles”. You can get templates to tweak the appearance.

    I would buy a ‘link search and replace app’ with simple and regex functionality. While running global search-and-replace queries is somewhat dangerous, the app could just go trough the matching posts one by one, showing the old and the new link with an option to click the old and new link before clicking “skip”, “change” or “remove link and replace with …”. http to https changes would be typical, but there are more examples: Removing dead links entirely and replacing them with a note; Adding/changing affiliate links; Changing links from one domain to another after after takeovers or a rebranding (e.g. twitter.com to x.com); removing parts of of the domain (like www) or a specific folders after the external site changed their structure …

    None of these examples prove your point – they prove my point. Yes, a subscription has a default amount of time it lasts until in renews. Adobe has monthly subscriptions and yearly subscriptions. But both of them run INDEFINITELY unless they are cancelled. Show me the offer from Adobe where you can buy just "5 months” or “5 years” and then the subscription does not renew anymore. It does not exist, because that is not how subscriptions work. Yet, that is what you want and what you are falsely claiming is even necessary. I am sorry, but you misrepresent the facts around subscription in order to demand a feature you would like to see. That never works.
  20. opentype
    Simple answer: It is not possible. That is not true. Subscriptions run until they are cancelled – by definition – and that is possible in every country of the world – just as with the given example of “paying rent for an undefined time until one side cancels”. What you are asking for to achieve a “5 month course” is NOT a subscription. It’s single purchase of a course, which grants access to something for a limited time. You also want to spread out the payments, but that is a payment option and INDEPENDENT from the product type itself. And it also not possible with the Invision Community software.

    What have you selected here in the database settings?
  22. opentype
    Yes, I saw the same a few days ago. I reduced the front page to only show categories, which resolved it for now. Something in the other optional blocks seems to create problematic queries.
  23. opentype
    The initiation method isn’t the most important part. The optimization methods apply to all of them. Looking at the screenshots, your system mails go out directly from your server. So you need to make sure your DNS settings are optimized for that as well, not just for the external services like ConvertKit you use. In fact, it could be that adding DNS settings for those external service actually deligitimized sending mails from your own server. You need to make sure that all sending options are included in your DNS settings. You can check with your host. They probably have settings and information directly relating to SPF/DKIM/DMARC … I always optimize this stuff using the Mail Tester website. By the way: You can do 3 tests for free per day. You should end up with at least of score of 9.
  24. opentype
    I would suggest: go here and copy the email address https://www.mail-tester.com Open the email settings in the ACP and sent a test email to that Mail Tester email. Check the results. Which score do get and which recommendations?
  25. opentype
    I used SES for some of my communities over the last couple of years (via SMTP). The ‘send-rate per second’ didn’t seem to matter for this delivery method. It was pushing out the several hundred bulk mails per task without issues. I did get warnings about getting close to the send limit per 24 hours though.
