    kar3n2 reacted to opentype in Pages SuperGrid support   
    Support topic for: 
    Pages SuperGrid is a set of Pages templates and a complete solution to make your Pages databases (with articles, directories and so on) appealing and engaging. 
    What’s needed: 
    IPS 4.1 in its most recent version with the Pages application A pages databases that uses the stock Record Image field and has images with a sufficient resolution uploaded through that field. 
    (Technically, the templates also work without images, but it’s an image-centered design and works best when most or all records have images.) Which templates are included:
    A beautiful grid-based Front Page template with two records featured at the top — for when your database is set to article mode. A beautiful grid-based Listing template replacing the dull forum listing design — for when you open a category or have a database without categories. A unique Record View template with a large header image — for when you open a specific record. A category listing template – in case you use more than one category.  2 Bonus Features included: 
    Twitter Card support! Yes, you read that correctly! The SuperGrid record view template adds Twitter Card support to your records. You just have to provide your Twitter handle. Tweets with images have a significantly higher click rate and with Pages SuperGrid any link to an article in your database (which has a record image) will automatically get a beautiful Twitter Card like this:

    Block template! Create blocks anywhere on your site – pointing to your database – and make them as beautiful as the database itself. A block template with options is included in the package.

    I don't think we utilize all the available features, but seems to work pretty well for us.

    You can move forums into and out of a collab using the dropdown menu on the forums management. You can only move topics between foroms that are in the same context (either in the same collab or outside of a collab).

    Is there anyway to move posts or thread into or out of a collab ?
    The moderator action as is does not seem to allow this to happen ?

    so i need to find a site where the collabs work and are also fully integrated into the rest of the site somehow.
    Times moved on with this app so Im hoping that all the little bugs etc have been ironed out by now.   I do have a plan to use the app now whereas early days even thought I though it a great idea I couldnt think how my site might benefit from different groups.

    We lost activity quite significantly because at the time it was just missing integration with the site fully particuarly in our mobile BYO tapatalk app which meant that unless using the full site people were not seeing the content. 
    Its a real shame because personally I love the app and think it as loads of plus points but every community is different and ours struggled despite giving it 12 months to try to convert people.

    Love your plugin, but when I upgraded today, I lost everything, all my posts were gone.
    My main page was there, with the links to posts, but if you clicked on a post it bought you to an all white page of nothingness.
    support disabled your plugin and told me to contact you, if so when
    are you going to upgrade it, so its compatible?

    OH . . . somehow I thought it was a plugin, as in, within the ACP, System > Site Features > Plugins.
    So it's actually that same area, but Applications?
    And then once I go there, as that area of the ACP says "Select the .tar application distribution you would like to install," I would just select the entire downloaded .tar file, not anything that was extracted?
    (If you could go ahead and confirm that, as I'm a bit of a scaredycat when it comes to installing things, that'd be great, thanks!)

    I think you've hit the nail on the head! This is exactly how it should work in my opinion. you're really great with process,  WELL DONE!! 
    However, reading into what Lindy had to say, it seems he's concerned about private forums and forums with permissions to only specific groups. He cites "Mental Health". Suppose one of these sites have clients providing sensitive uploads to private forums. (for example a domestic violence site, user submits photos of injury). These users wouldn't want their private domestic violence photos view-able to the entire community on display in the gallery. Do you have a solve for this? Like maybe a check box on upload... "do not show in gallery"? Or maybe images have source forum ID connected such that gallery could respect forum permissions?
    Interested in hearing your ideas.

    I've found images are really, really important to folks and they often see them as integral to the conversation  rather than as standalone gallery items per se. It takes some forethought and extra steps to think, "well first I'll post this into to a gallery album so I can reference it and then go back to the chit-chat forum and embed the image that goes with the story I want to tell so we can talk about it."
    I suspect the difference may be the subtle difference between a comment and a reply.  You can certainly have a discussion in comments, but forums are set up and people are conditioned to use them as the meeting place, while galleries tend to have more of a museum or portfolio quality.  In the gallery people tend to interact with the image and the poster, while in the forum people interact with everyone else in addition to the image and the poster.
    I would like to see increased visibility across image sources, although I don't personally see the need to specifically integrate attachments into the gallery (although that's certainly one way to accomplish it). I would be happy to simply see per-user image results aggregated in a "show content" view from their profile, honoring whatever permissions exist for wherever the content came from.

    To answer your question my specific situation goes back to the old yahoo groups before there even was any real "forum" software. You see, we've had our community evolve through 4 different versions now going back to 1999. First it was phpbb to replace yahoo groups. Well, we setup picture forums as there was no Gallery as part of that package. We converted to SMF (7 years ago)  which had a gallery via MOD but it wasn't as solid as we liked and our community was already locked into forums as a way of life. 
    Now that we have IPS which comes with a really fantastic gallery, I talked it over with my mods and we are really torn up about the right approach. We know our users will still want to use the forums but we think the gallery has a lot of potential. We like picture forums because posts with pictures foster a threaded conversation about the respective pictures. This we like. However, the gallery has a lot of added functionality. As it is now our forums are centered around pictures but we want to use gallery and can't figure out how to smoothly marry the two. We want to easily find all the image content someone has posted to the website without having to search for fragmented content in two different apps.

    I'm curious if you are basically wanting Forum posted images to also be posted into the Gallery or in Gallery type content?
    I'm not sure I fully support that idea.
    To me that sounds counter intuitive as to me the gallery is a showcase, it's a place that you upload your images to view sort of like going to a gallery to view an artists work. The forum images are normally meant for conversation or discussion and not meant to be "showcased".
    If both were being streamed together it wouldn't make sense to me as it's not the purpose of the two apps. I would certainly love to have the "Insert media from Gallery" feature back and improved upon to include all other apps (insert media from downloads etc) which doesn't do that silly block that you get when you insert links from other parts of the site. I'd prefer that the block be designed more "pretty" and have like the teaser paragraph from articles or a truncated part of the content field and the like.
    For me, it doesn't seem like this would be helpful. It would also get messy as I have a forum that currently has a gif war going on.

    THIS!!! well stated. I am concerned about fractured content but especially images. Although, as aforementioned, VBulletin has solved for this issue.
