'Who Was Online',

I came to raise a suggestion on this one as I'm trying to clean up my applications based on the compatibility indicator and just read this! This one is a dead certain core upgrade in my opinion, that members and users look out for. They love knowing who has been around over the last day, and it also helps websites feel more engaged because not everyone will make a post or reply - engagement functionality should always include the 95% of our total members that are lurkers and this would be the only way they feel 'included'.

I'd go as far to say from a website perspective it is far more beneficial than who 'is' online which is a current core feature. That feels more akin to different platforms with Instant Messaging services.

Hope this can be considered soon!

@Kirill Gromov, is this a page that you activate via the plugin?

The new update looks like it will definitely add something like this @Felix Nunn, however until I can get to use it fully, our primary purpose of events will always be online places, so I will want that as the primary feature and physical ones a second thought - is that a toggle @Andy Millne?

Until then, you can create pre-defined Venues in the AdminCP - Community > Calendar > Venues. These don't need physical addresses, just a country to be populated (which you don't see on the front end anyway). Thats how i've done it so people can just select what online thing they use - its important to me as ours is a gaming family so needs to be specific to what platform they use rather than what system they use to communicate like Zoom, Teams, etc.

Just adding support to the feature request rather than having a separate plugin for this one.

Specifically a default for the Homepage in my view is the absolute must have core setting. Many of us now have used 'Pages' to create Homepages following useful guides from Invision so it seems to make common sense to have a toggle somewhere to set a default on the Homepage at the very least.

That would also support reducing the amount of plugins and applications we have 🙂

You would need to post this as a suggestion within our suggestions area if you wish to see this appear in a future release

I assumed that but as you can appreciate, my thought process is it doesn't feel like this will help get this into core.

If it receives likes or comments does this help? Just don't also want to clog up Feature Suggestions when this seems a common sense and small bit of code to add, as Adriano has created very quickly (and for free!) 🙂

Happy to follow what you think is best, Marc.

Hello, I think it's possible, but I don't have plans to do it yet, maybe a little later

Thanks Kirill, this could easily become a 'core' app for many people to use across their websites - for each one I use as a core feature, I would love to go live with Ideas with some Achievements to ensure the whole application gets used effectively.

Keep us informed if you can find a way! Thank You! 🙂

Hello, yes, you can create a poll without linking to any content item! This is the main task that faced the development of this application. And yes, you can create a new poll from the menu + Create

Thanks Kirill!

Can you just confirm how the system sees these polls please?

The reason I ask is that for polls I have set up numerous badges and Achievements for them so I would hope/assume that the system identifies these polls as a poll in the database so it would trigger my Achievements all set up - would you agree?

Just now, Marc Stridgen said:

As mentioned above, there is no way in which to change that to the default option without modification. The search bar defaults to the context of the page. For example, you are in a topic, so it will default to "This topic"

Will it be considered in a future release to add to core? Makes sense for just the Homepage of everyone's websites I would believe?

Thank you @Luuuk, nice to see its free! Hopefully it can be added into the core in a future release as it makes sense rather than having another plugin.

I can't find where to change the default option for the Search bar on my homepage to 'Everywhere'.

As we can all make a 'Pages' our Homepage which i think many people have, it then seems to default to 'Pages' as a search field which makes no sense for a homepage to have.

Can anyone help me please find the setting?

Thanks in advance

Oh wow, this looks really interesting @Kirill Gromov!

I use Polls Walls at the moment and explain Polls has a key feature on its own, but we still don't get too many polls because there are quite hard to create via simple posts on a phone (because the tabs aren't obvious and so much info is needed for one poll).

How does this work then...is it essentially the Polls part without having to write anything for a new topic? Does it also show 'Create Poll' in the button 'Create New Content'?

Great help for the additional reply, I think it may be something I ask for feedback from the members first - I've done my best to use as standard plugins and apps so far rather than bespoke ones as I wouldn't want to feel like I'm calling on you for my every need....although tbh, you are the king of nearly all my apps/plugins anyway so it wouldn't change much! 😄

Thanks @Adriano Faria, really helpful to explain why it is the way it is. I most likely wouldn't try to use IPS Geolocation as some people on the internet get bothered about what info it shows 😅 Trying to please the masses isn't always the easiest!

I'll have a think about a suggestion, but based off of my own past experience of raising other ideas, I really don't think the core will change - even more so after a quick online search, geolocation is mostly configured this way.

I was more thinking for ease to add additional countries to the list, as you said they can select a Country from a list anyway which ignores geolocation. That way the feature can incorporate any future country complications (just like the UK being a political union rather than a country 😄).

Thanks again 👍

Hi @Adriano Faria, thinking of installing this one but I know i'll get asked the following question immediately if/when I do install it:

United Kingdom isn't seen as most of our members country and they'd rather associate themselves with either England, Scotland, Wales or Northern Ireland. Are these in the list? If not, can I add them in manually or do I have to ask for this as a feature request from yourself?

Thanks in advance 😄

Hi @Kirill Gromov, any thoughts if you are able to extend the Achievements part to Ideas at all?

Looks like a 'post' of any kind can be drilled down to give an award out but this could literally be a comment at any point or an actual idea.

Feels like it could be a new 'When' field added to say 'New Idea created' which would definitely help engagement with your super app.

Conditions could then be simple like it is their XXX idea which allows for growth but also it could have AND the idea has had XX positive upvotes, etc.

Could this be a possibility at all?

I do love the idea as I've wanted this on profiles for Achievements for a while now. This is a subtle different way of engagement and I do like it a lot too. The info is clearly there as its already doing the working out for Achievements so it fits absolutely perfectly. Personally, its one of the key bits of info many of us have wanted externally so we can show the workings out on everyone's profile.

And if we need to not show every Achievement Rule/Goal, then it seems a basic toggle for public or not would do the trick.

I need live demo to checking this issues.

Sure. It does it whichever page you are on our website, hope this helps 🙂

Just realised there is one more bug i've found!

On mobile, the Categories for the Tournaments doesn't show up at all, even when you click 'Show All Categories'. So, if they can't see their Tournament from the main page under the forced filters, you can't get to them at all on a mobile.

@aXenDev where do I find the 'Readme' PDF? Trying to sort out my multiple Nav icons but they won't update in how I think i'm supposed to do it.

Also, I think I have a small issue with the nav bar and how the dropdown works.

When I select this it seems to not like the menu and briefly shows it. I think I saw in a separate thread somewhere here that someone else had it with a separate theme and they advised it was the theme that was most likely tripping up with the page somehow. Its not a huge thing but can be a pain when you click 'More' quite abit and you have to click it in the right place for the menu to stay there! 😄

Thanks in advance.

Thanks. I'll take a look when I have to check compatibility with IPS 4.7. Should be there in a week or so.

Super, thanks Adriano! Really looking forward to that and the updates! 👍

Hi @Adriano Faria, found a number of couple of bugs I believe that would be great to fix if possible? Also some things I can't get around which links to previous comments a while back:

1. Reaction Notification - seems to have code string on any reaction pop up.

2. Team invites notification - when someone accepts your invite, the reaction asks you to be join when you already in it? Seems like there is not the correct message being triggered as the right action occurs on looking at the team.

3. Create a Team must have a picture and a description - this would help if they were optional as many people don't have a description to add or a picture.

4. Adding Teams / Participating already in Tournaments - I've tried my best to be clever and get round the fact you have to be in a 'Team' to particpate rather than just participate as a member. I can create multiple teams myself in the name of people and invite them....however because I'm already in it, I can only Add one team that that i'm a part of. It would be far easier if I could enter all the teams sometimes on behalf of people as its quite convoluted in how to create a team and then join (thats not your coding, just how it was initially designed)

I have more feedback like previous comments that if you want to catch up and go through it, I can. Also, your achievements via the other applications are brilliant additions so far.

Thanks in advance! 😄

I knew I was being completely blind to it! Thanks aXen 😄

Hi @aXenDev, feels like a stupid question here as i've been using this for ages...

Where can i set the standard default view to 'Dark' mode for when people visit the site for the first time? Not looking to turn off the option to have light or dark...I just can't see the option anywhere to set the default 😅

Thanks in advance

Quick question related to this thread if I may....do links embed as part of the core now?

Just wanted to check to understand if this makes this plugin I'm using no longer required? Obviously i'd rather switch off if it means I don't need it to have it anymore.

There is no fix there. Its actually working as intended. You should have it set on "Specific time period" and set that. By default its set to 365 days.

Oh, that really is surprising. I've not touched this setting, in probably ever. It all of a sudden changed in a recent update and now i'm changing it to this? I have changed it to what you mention and will monitor but please note that I chose that option after seeing it wasn't working and selected '20 weeks', only to see that it stored a date behind the scenes when I saved it so missed future content.

Forgive me for asking and double checking, but Invision has this setting, which I'm sure we all had until recently:

Yet, our website shows this.

This has to be something missing @Marc Stridgen, otherwise I would have the same option in the AdminCP surely?
