AI and LLM and all that could be another good metric but community-based metrics are useful too. For example, someone may post a long-winded rant and I might reply "ok." AI and such would see that as a useless reply. But, in context, a human would see it's a funny, sarcastic reply and it might get lots of likes or other engagement. So you need both AI and actual I working together to create useful data.

There's a LOT in v5: https://invisioncommunity.com/developers/devblog/

We have offered an on-demand Free Trial on our site for years 🙂

Don’t get obsessed over things like compact mode 😀 These new modes are options and you can keep a traditional mode like we have now or experiment with new modes. It’s all just a toggle and you can mix and match to create endless customization possibilities.

I would guess in the next couple weeks. It's almost to the point we can show people things.

Join us as we discuss the September 2023 release of Invision Community. If you cannot attend, catch the video and discussion in the converted live topic in our Invision Community Insider forum. Do you have a question about the release? Post your question in the comments and we will try to get to them live!

You are trying to use spam prevention for access control which is not what it is design to do. You would be best doing this at a firewall or server level.

That post is helpful.

Thanks for letting us know you’re interested 😀

We do not have any plans to bring Live Topics to Beginner or Classic plans 🙂

Live Topics is available on Creator package and up. It's not available on Beginner or Classic (self-hosted) plans. Feel free to contact us to discuss changing plans.

The best way to kill a community is to refuse to keep up with new ways that people consume content.

Luckily we are the experts in seeing usage trends 😉 Trust me. You have no idea how many problematic things we prevented from being published in the Marketplace over the years. PSA: you might want to use multi-quote when doing many replies 🙂

Very helpful making a last-minute theme we needed for a client. Fast response and good work.

I respect your unique viewpoint but I am afraid I do not see that in practice 🙂 We have many enterprise clients on our platform and they specifically do not want anything third-party. They see it as a security risk. When I speak to prospective clients they never ask about such things. In fact, most enterprise clients specifically disallow any outsourcing or external code being added to their community setups in the contracts we have with them. We get people switching to use from Discourse all the time. Again, I can see how you might see it that way in your specific case but, on a broader scale, it is just not what we experience.

You might want to re-read the post 🙂 Your existing Marketplace items will be transferrable to the authors of those items so you can keep using them. The changes have nothing to do with cloud vs self-hosted.

I understand your concern there and I hope that authors will take over their work so you can keep using it.

We cannot just give out the code as it's not our code to give out - it's the author's code - so you would need to transfer your proof of purchase to them. It takes 2 minutes not 6 months to transfer your purchase 🙂

Sounds like something people will enjoy.

Yes, we have many clients doing really interesting things with Downloads+Commerce. I think for developers that are serious about what they are doing, they can really thrive with us out of the way 🙂

Yes, that is a concern. Again, only download from a reputable source or hire a developer to custom-make any needs you have.

Much like when you purchase something online, we would rely on people providing feedback and reviews.

You would want to ensure you are only downloading from a reputable source.

The Marketplace has lost us money for many years especially as people just are not as interested in "mods" like they were decades go.
