I have an email with Daniel, I sent him the new forum topic link that isn't showing, but I can add it to the client area notes as well.

Just a bump as I saw this on another site I have now too except this time it wasn't a hidden topic, it was an active one visible by all. It's visible in the forum it was posted under but not in the activity stream. This issue is being looked at by Invision Community Support, but has been inconclusive so far. Are any other site owners experiencing this by chance? One of those things you probably won't notice (since it's not showing) unless a member tells you or you happen to post something that doesn't show up and immediately recognize it isn't in the activity stream.

OK, yeah it's not that I need a Guest to have access to add themselves, but I need a Member to RSVP + N (i.e. themself and whoever they may be bringing). Example is a dinner, the member is coming and bringing their wife and 2 kids, so an RSVP of the member + 3. It wouldn't be reasonable to have the member's wife and 2 kids each create an account just to RSVP. But it is very important to get an accurate RSVP count for capacity planning.

Very nice @Adriano Faria! Does the Add/Remove Attendee option allow for adding a non-member? In my case, not all members plus Ns will be members of the site. Also, can a member Add/Remove an addition Attendee or only a mod/admin can perform this action?

Often times, we have Events whereas the member will RSVP but may bring a guest or several guests. It would be a huge benefit to have a plus N capability with Event RSVP to get accurate counts and manage capacity. This is really a big gap in how we can effectively manage our Events through the IPS Event Calendar.

Would be nice to be able to convert a Forum topic to an Event and have the topic OP become an editable Event, and all the replies become the comments. This would help maintain the history and context of the event discussion and then elevate it to an actual calendar event with dates/times, RSVP, etc.

OK, that explains it, thanks @Adriano Faria! 🙂 All good now, uninstalled the app we were testing and the Member Group update works as expected. Thanks for the input as well @Jim M and @Miss_B

Two sites running v4.7.6 One site updates fine, other errors. Neither has the offending column in the core_groups table.

OK I added that information, thanks Marc!

OK details to the URLs have been added. Thanks!

@Jim M can you send me a PM so I can send you some links? Interestingly, if I reply to them they re-appear in the same custom Activity Stream, but if I delete that reply, it no longer shows on that custom Activity Stream in the correct timeline (i.e. last reply date). The custom Activity Stream is set to show a Read Status of Everything.

Odd issue, seems like sometimes when I hide a topic it won't show in the Activity Stream any longer for myself (Administrator), whereas other topics do when hidden. Any ideas?

The queue task is no longer locked now, as others have also experienced. I was looking just at the queue task logs, I thought that's what others were referring to when they were looking at logs. Don't recall what other background tasks were running at the time. I'll review their logs if it happens again.

Any idea why my task was locked but I had no logs? And only one of my sites had the locked queue task? All I see is: Tasks do not usually log anything if they run without error.

I just got this notification in my admincp but there are no logs (30 day retention)

I'm adding multi-day events but each day has varying hours. For now I'm just listing the start of day 1 and end of the last day but it would be better to allow specifying hours for each day when applicable as these venues aren't open 24/7 and it isn't very efficient to add an Event per day to achieve this, not to mention each Event being considered unique and taking up duplicate space on your Upcoming Events block/list.

@Jim Quinn, tagging you so you're aware of the split topic (you may not be). Also please see my comment above.

If you're talking about Sovrn Commerce, they provide a JS snippet you can add to your Theme >> Header and Footer >> Footer HTML section.

Nevermind, was a name matching issue and mistype. Both valid and invalid usernames appear the same in the "To" section. TIL the error message "cannot receive messages" is an indicator of an invalid username.

Yeah I saw that there, and wasn't sure if the member's messenger settings were held differently than an Admin level setting to disable it. @Marc Stridgen do you want me to PM it to you?

Not exceeding the quota from what I can see in AdminCP:

I tried to message a member and received an error: {member} cannot receive messages. I'm assuming that member disabled their messenger, which I thought would prevent members from messaging them but not admins/mods, however I found I cannot message them either. Is there an override for this? Where can I verify they have disabled their messenger without logging into their account?

FWIW, I removed Tapatalk entirely from my sites a couple months ago. As you've experienced, their support is lacking, security is a concern, and their hijacking of your content is an even bigger concern. I'd make efforts to review your uploaded images/videos and try to reclaim them from Tapatalk servers (as I've personally seen them just disappear there and your topics will get hit with 404s on image/video retrievals). Some members didn't like it initially, but quickly learned, adapted to and even prefer the responsive mobile design of IPS. Some like that "app" selection feel as opposed to opening a browser app and then navigating to a URL. To achieve this, they can save the site to their device homepage as an icon (thereby appearing as an app) and load it that way.

OK, however I am confused by it so I want to make sure I'm describing it correctly. There are three parts to this feature: The profile photo being uploaded (full resolution) The profile thumbnail (thumbnail resolution) The profile photo presented in the profile (displayed resolution upscaled from the thumbnail) Are there other areas the thumbnail is used that storing it at less than the profile photo display size is important or beneficial? I understand it's a space saver (matter of a few kB maybe?), but it seems to conflict with the goal because it reduces the resolution and then rescales it back up causing the pixelation. Why would these not match to maintain the visual fidelity, i.e. the upload process recognizes the member's profile photo dimensions and creates a corresponding matching thumbnail that is sized to match that space? Otherwise you'll just have all pixelated profile photos (which is exactly what is being seen). I can create an enhancement request to this effect but I want to ensure I'm not missing some other aspect to this that makes it not a good idea.

To clear up, the thumbnail saved on upload is 100x75 and then cropped to 75x75 but displayed as 120x120 in the profile photo under the profile page https://site.com/profile/{id}-username What's confusing is the thumbnail vs the display and how this can be controlled, unless you must edit certain underlying theme properties (not visible in the AdminCP) to achieve matching resolutions of display (profile photo) to what is thumbnailed for that exact display (via the profile photo upload process). Each of those is a separate configuration, but they *should* match no?
