I'm working on it as application in IPS 😄

Looking at my sites, it seems like spammers are already using it. I get more and more replies to old topics which somehow are on topic but still somehow make so little sense that I can’t believe a human registered to post it. 
I’m not afraid of AI and use it myself, but only like a brainstorming partner, where I judge which replies are actually useful and correct. I can’t imagine having AI (auto) reply/publish anything on my sites at the moment. And I think it would only dilute the value of a community. Because the AI answers will soon be available directly within search engines and other apps and services. I rather run the place where answers can be different and better than that.

Kind of defeats the purpose to use this if you cannot refresh a thread you're in via the standalone app. The browser mode works, but then is it really an app and it opens a new tab every time you click on a new notification. 
Would love for this to be an enhancement request to have a refresh button in Standalone mode. 

You could try hCaptcha to slow them down, but if they don’t validate their account, I would just ignore them. They will be deleted automatically anyway and cannot do anything on the front end. 
The IP addresses and email addresses will constantly change (as is evident by this random use of dots), so trying to create a ban filter is almost impossible. 

What are you trying to offer with the Downloads app?
It is usually used for software, videos and things like that. That’s why “screenshots” makes sense as representation of the content. 
If you add images as downloads, then it would be a different story. And the software can’t always create screenshots. For example, I have a website where the downloads consist of images, but they are huge TIF files put into ZIP archives. It would be pretty much impossible for the server to generate thumbnails from that. So, a user field to add some representative images makes perfect sense. 
 

Hi,
As far as I know, there is not an easy way to include blocks in database entries. In our install (and possibly others 😊), there are several occasions when adding blocks to articles would be very useful:
Inserting custom ads in custom locations of the article Inserting a block with sponsors of specific articles In an expanding series of articles within a topic, a block with links to the different parts would take away a huge amount of editing when new parts are published One way of doing it would be to include a button in the text editor that brings up a list with the available custom blocks, similar to the way you browse for available Custom Blocks in the Blocks Manager on the live page. But I'd also be happy to just paste the block key in a field. Any improvement in this regard is greatly appreciated.
Cheers

It has moved to System -> Web App.
IPS should probably change the ACP search. Searching for “manifest” still points to Icons & Logos, where it has been removed from. 

I’m just seeing this. All my products are shown as free. 😱 I hope IPS can push out a patch quickly. Very bad for business and bad in regards to the customer’s trust. 

I understood that and took that into account. I am still saying it is usually useful to create a custom version of the core block first and then call it with the custom key. That’s also gives easy access to the settings that these core blocks might have. You could even add small customizations easily without touching the original widgets.

No. Every section has its own template and its own variables. There is no easy way to move templates between sections. It needs manual recreation with knowledge of every detail. 

Not, that’s not possible.
I am actually using Pages database to run my ads, but it requires a lot of customization and has to run independently from the built-in advertising system.

The “Manual” option is not meant for a payment gateway. It’s meant for a manual payment by the customer. The shop owner would (for example) put their bank account details in that editor field and then the customer pays using that option.

I have a custom field with numerical values:

Looks fine in the database:

Looks fine on the product page:

But once the product is put into the cart, the product in the cart will always use the next value in the set and continue to use the false value throughout the checkout. 
If I select “1" on the product page, the cart says “2”. 
If I select “2“ on the product page, the cart says “3” and so on. 

You can easily replicate it as a guest on my site. It happens for all products which use this field. 

Ideally there should be a “staging mode” with settings to turn off payments, emails and things like that.

Yeah, this seems to work. Seems to also require regenerator on the user side.

Not without customization, no.
