Guest homepage and members profile
It is not possible. (Foster’s app only works if Pages is already the default app. So you can only change between different pages, not other parts of the suite like forums, profile pages and so on.)

You could buy one or more of my other products, even if you have no immediate use for them. That would work equally well. 😉

Commerce how to set up discount ???
I don’t think what you ask for is possible. The sale discount only applies to single additional products. If you put in a 9, it means your 10th item will get a discount. And then the customer has to buy 20 items to get 2 discounted because he hits the 2 times 9 threshold.

Pages SuperBlocks (Support Topic)
Firstly, please remove that larger chunk of code. That’s commercial software I sell. It should not be republished publicly. And to answer your question: unfortunately not. IPS’ function to get topic images doesn’t give access to a thumbnail. Otherwise I would have already done that.

Is this possible - Downloads to Twitter Post...
What you can do: Make sure RSS feeds for recent downloads are turned on in the Downloads settings. (If you need more control: Create a new stream and use the RSS feed there). Register with a service like IFTTT. Connect your Twitter account. Use a “RSS to Twitter” module, so every entry from the RSS feed is posted to Twitter.

Link membership renewal invoice with new membership invoice
By the way: You can set the store product so it can only be purchased once. That prevents these kind of purchases. Unfortunately, it creates new problems. If someone lets the invoice expire without paying, they can never buy the product again. IPS never solved this issue.

[CMS] List of entries in a Pages database
With the stock options, that’s not possible in a sensible way I would say. A custom block with custom MySQL query would be needed. Unless you structure the content itself, e.g. by putting all “A” entries into an “A” category. Then you can easily show entries from that category.

Not sure if this is an IP Board issue...
Yes, but you should rather identify which tables are actually too large (e.g. in phpMyAdmin) instead of using purging options hoping something improves.

[CMS] List of entries in a Pages database
Sure. Custom Feed block. Number of entries: higher than record count. Order by: title.
-
Is it possible to change title based on device screen size?
You can’t do that in the template code, because when it is parsed on the server, the server doesn’t know what device it will be displayed on. However, the IPS framework has CSS classed to achieve this, so while both statements would be in the HTML code for everyone, one part could show on mobile devices only and another one only on desktop.

Pages SuperBlocks (Support Topic)
It’s a template. You need to create a custom feed block and then assign that template. Then you access that custom block on the front page. Please follow the instruction in the “Additional Information” tab. It walks you through every step.

How to disable auto jump to last reply/comment???
It’s a personal setting in the account settings: https://invisioncommunity.com/settings/links/

Pages SuperBlocks (Support Topic)
Well, the suggestion would be not to put text on the edges. The images are shown using the CSS background image mode “cover”, so whatever the aspect ratio, there will be no “black bars” on either side. The image is scaled up so it goes from every edge to every opposing edge. But that also means, things can be cut off in one of the two directions. But the calendar does that as well, so that’s not something that needs to be solved just for SuperBlocks.

Adding PHP function to IPS theme
You need to use the template syntax as explained here on several pages. https://invisioncommunity.com/4guides/themes-and-customizations/template-syntax/introduction-to-template-syntax-r137/

Choose who sees widgets?
So what are you trying to achieve? If you want to make a feature request to IPS, you would need to use the Feature Suggestions forum. But you posted in Help & Support, so I assumed you are looking for exactly the kind of help I provided. Telling you how you can achieve what you asked for. It’s kind of weird not to say “thank you” but “it’s too much work” for you.
-
Choose who sees widgets?
It kind of exist already. You just need to create a custom Pages block from the widget you need permissions for.

Is the Articles Database different? Moderator options
Those are fields which can be turned on from the Fields section of the database.

Pages SuperGrid support
Sure. It’s a language string of the suite with the ID “user_feedback”. ACP → Customization → Languages → Translate

Pages SuperGrid support
Then next time, when you don’t understand something in the product description—especially when it’s marked as required—, please ask in advance. That’s what the support topics are also for. “Record Image” is the official name of that field. I need to be able to simply call it that. It is impossible to explain every possible term I use in the product description or to explain the general usage of Invision Community regarding such functions. The latter is done through IPS’ Guides section. I do understand that very well. That’s why I go to great lengths to avoid such problems by: clearly listing what is required describing in detail what my products do describing in detail how to install and configure them listing all features and settings addressing FAQ and common problems running a paid demo site just for the purpose of letting users inspect every detail of my products on a live site (instead of just screenshots) Quite honestly, I wouldn’t know how I could possibly do anything on top of that. The client also needs to do his or her part by making sure they know and understand what they are getting before making the purchase.

The product descriptions is very clear about that. It specifically says that the Record Image is “required”. In addition, it’s useful to have that anyway, since it also used for streams, social media sharing and so on. It certainly is on my demo page for SuperGrid so it shouldn’t come as a surprise. There shouldn’t be additional titles (or the author information shown in the screenshot) at the top of the content area and my product didn’t put them there. If you or other authors of your articles put them there, that problem was caused when these articles were created in the past. That is completely unrelated to my product.

Embed a video stream/chat/conference in a post?
It’s because you are focused on the conferencing tools, which are either not meant for streaming to begin with or only offer streaming for a lot of money. Look for streaming solutions. On platforms like YouTube, live streaming with multiple people (and open invites) is a very normal thing and like I said, there are tons of free and commercial solutions available which can feed into platforms like YouTube. Online solutions for this can even push the stream out to all big platforms at once.

Well, you are in the right place. If you have problems, describe them here in the support topic.

Custom stream as home page
Kind of. You can create a new page with Pages and then add the Activity Stream widget on it. It doesn’t allow you to chose an existing stream, but there are some settings to create a custom stream. You can also link a custom stream as “home” link from the menu, but that wouldn’t automatically picked up from other places like the logo. I am actually using that on one of my sites and I customized the logo template to link to “discover/6/”

Support url disappeared from Client Area
The client area or that chat window doesn’t really show that this is an option.
