I would take note of what I edited here as well. The author would need to state compatibility. 

Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! I can confirm this should be further reviewed and I have logged an internal bug report for our development team to investigate and address as necessary, in a future maintenance release.
 

There is already the BULK_MAILS_PER_CYCLE constant to solve issues with hosts that have trouble with many emails at once. 
Equally, if not more important, is how many emails are sent in a given timeframe. It’s normal for hosts and email services to have some kind of limit in that regard, but with the way IPS sends out bulk mail, it unpredictable when these limits are being hit and there is no way around this problem when the limits are hit. 
I suggest a solution like a MAX_MAIL_CYCLES_PER_TASK constant or setting to limit the amount of cycles run each time a cron is being fired. So, for example, I could set 1 run of 100 emails with the cron running every minute resulting in 1000 mails in 10 minutes. 
I understand that IPS isn’t all that focussed on features that would only help self-hosted customers, but it seems like an easy implementation which could help a lot of users. It’s actually the behaviour that people are already expecting. 

Nothing will change. The CSS only hides the HTML content, but the <script> in this case will still be executed on page load regardless.

Open dropdown menu and check if anything is selected.
Unselect it and it will stop cross posting.
The "post topic" switch did not work as expected in my case.

Welcome to the second video of our sneak peak series! Today we'll be taking a closer look at the new Invision Community interface, including dark mode, accessibility improvements, performance improvements and the mobile layout! Before we begin, I should mention that this is a pre-alpha version of Invision Community 5, so some areas of the design may change before the official release.
 
New traditional header design
In our previous video, we showcased our new, optional side panel which formats your navigation into a vertical list. For those who prefer a traditional, horizontal header, here it is!

A much more compact header compared to version 4, the new design condenses the navigation bar into a single row, moving all sub-navigation items into dropdown menus. A new, optional area below the text logo allows you to add your website slogan or announce events such as anniversaries or holidays, and our new search modal provides convenient access to the advanced search filters from any page on your community.

 
Accessible interface
The main content area has been designed with accessibility as a priority. High contrast text colours and larger font-sizes help to make reading more comfortable and clickable table rows (which can be enabled or disabled via the Theme Editor) allow you to navigate between pages more easily. A visible focus ring significantly improves navigation for visitors who find it more comfortable to browse with their keyboard TAB key, instead of using their mouse (ie. visitors with conditions such as Parkinson's disease, or those who have temporarily lost function due to a broken arm).

Dark mode
Dark mode has become increasingly popular over the past few years - so it's no surprise that Version 5 has been designed from scratch with both light and dark mode in mind. With version 4, it was necessary to manage two themes in order to provide a light and dark colour scheme. In version 5 though, all of that is handled by a single theme.
By default, your members will be able to choose their own color scheme preference: either light, dark, or system. System assigns a color scheme based on your system preferences - so if your device automatically switches to dark mode at night, your community will too! With that said, as an administrator, you also have the option to restrict your site to a single color scheme - so if you ONLY want to offer a dark theme, that's easily achieved.

 
 
Performance
Despite all of these new inclusions, the version 5 UI has been coded with significant reductions in both CSS and Javascript. We'll dive deeper into code reductions in a future blog entry, however two great examples are:
- Grids: which have had a 100% removal of Javascript and are powered by only a few lines of CSS, resulting in a faster rendering time, especially for users on slow connections.
- And carousels: which have had a 95% reduction in Javascript and now rely on native browser scrolling, for a much smoother experience on both desktop and mobile!
Additionally we've removed a number of helper libraries that are no longer needed with modern browsers saving even more.
 
Mobile UI
With an incredible amount of mobile visitors accessing the web, we’ve placed a huge priority on redesigning the interface to ensure it lives up to todays standards.
A new navigation bar at the bottom of the page provides convenient access to your activity feed, notifications, messages, a search panel, and navigation links. A conscious effort was made to ensure that this information was available within a single tap, and we found that a bottom bar like this was easier to interact with compared to icons in the header.

A goal of the mobile UI was to display elements that were previously only available on larger devices, while still maintaining a clean interface. For example, to improve navigation, we've added a scrollable breadcrumb list to the top and bottom of the page. To improve guest participation, we added Sign In and Sign Up links to the bottom navigation bar. These links were previously hidden within the hamburger menu, so we feel like this will really benefit those looking to improve registrations. And as demonstrated in last weeks video, profile information is now available within posts, comments and reviews on small devices.
We’re really excited for you to literally have a hands on experience with the new mobile interface of Invision Community 5, and we're interested to hear your feedback in the comments!

🌸 Welcome to this week's Invision Community Insight! 🌸
Thank you for checking out this weekly round up post. I hope you have had a wonderful week! In the comments below, feel free to say hello and let us know what you are working on. As for us, let’s dive into that below.
 
Current Happenings
We are beginning some spring cleaning in Our Community. I hope you enjoy this first round of changes and those that will appear in the coming weeks. 🧹 
 
Deprecation Communication
Deprecations are important to keeping our software clean and modern as needs change and the software evolves. We want you to know when deprecations are happening and how to prepare for those. When a new deprecation is announced or a removal is completed, we will communicate those in four ways:
Release notes: This is a simple description with a link to our new Deprecation Tracker. Deprecation Tracker: This will give a bit more information and any actions or advice from us regarding the change. Topic: To allow for a place to ask your questions, we will share in a topic. AdminCP notification: This will appear as a banner in your AdminCP. We recommend that you follow these areas in Our Community so you are notified of changes. There are new announcements and removals in the March release so check those out.
 
New Version
Our March release is out and ready for your community. As you know, we recommend that you keep your community up to date each month to keep it running smoothly and so you can enjoy the latest updates.
As a reminder, here is what is included in this March release, version 4.7.8. 🍀

On Deck
Live Topics is set for beta release in … April! 🤩 🎉 We are looking forward to hearing how you use live topics and how it evolves in its future versions.
If you want to see Live Topics in action and like to hear Charles and I talk about the release (or just talk in general 😉) follow and add the April Release Chat to your calendar. Hope to see you then.
 
Also in the upcoming April release, Commerce, Clubs, Gallery and Events will all get some attention. 
 
Peeking Ahead 
Progressing along nicely are our statistics and reporting improvements. A blog entry will be posted soon.
 
We are in the beginning stages of development for our Courses and Lessons application. If you want to help shape this feature, share your ideas and use cases with us. https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/472307-courses-and-lessons/#comment-2934996
 
Lastly, for those that like to see what we are up to line by line, here is the changelog for the week.
 
Changelog
 
Hope you enjoyed this week's Invision Insight round up. See you next week. 🙂

Yes, basically because this is a moderation tool and notifications are sent to moderators only, not to the member who was banned. It’s enough to read the notifications titles: … when another moderator does something… and not …when a moderator add ME in a ban list.
Notifications appears and are sent only to moderators who can manage ban in topics. That’s how it was designed.

Happy Hump Day! Sort of… 
I have a bit of news to share with you: this will be my last Hump Day as I am stepping down from Invision Community. 😢 
I am transitioning to a new role at Amazon. I’ll be creating content and engagement solutions for AWS. 
I’d like to take a moment to thank this community for welcoming me with open arms. When I first started my journey as an Invision Community team member, I focused on community advocacy and connecting clients with the team. We quickly realized my, um... exuberance was better suited in marketing and sales. 
Creating content around Invision Community opened my eyes even further to how brilliantly crafted this platform is and the team behind it.
I've also genuinely enjoyed communicating with industry professionals every day who showed interest in adding a community component to their business.
So many incredible Achievements (😏) happened along the way; I’m grateful I was a part of Invision Community’s success as we blazed through the 20-year anniversary. 🎉 
Now, you won’t be rid of me entirely. My own community, BreatheHeavy, will still remain on the Invision Community platform. I look forward to staying connected with all of you here!
Thank you for engaging and interacting with me these last few years. 
Please feel free to PM me here if you have any feedback, questions or well wishes. 😃 
I want to give a special thanks to @Charles for being my mentor and seeing potential in me (even when I didn't). 
And before I go, here’s a list of updates and changes made to the platform in the last seven days:
 

Thank you, 🙏

See how the attached plugin works for you, setting included to allow you to enter a listing of IDs in your chosen order.
(NE) Order databases in Create menu 1.0.0.xml

There is no way in which to exclude specific pages, unless you specifically add code for that

If you're using the Adsense auto ad code within the IPS advertising system, it will NOT work.  Disable all ads in the advertising manager and use the template logic system.  The code that I used above does work.  The person you were quoting was using the auto ad code within the IPS advertising system, which puts the ad code in the wrong spot (within the body instead of the head).  This will cause very unstable results.  

Thanks both of you guys !!

This was already submitted - sans Font Awesome - I'll add that as an option. Otherwise out of the gate it has dot next to name, outline user avatar, or online badge style next to the three dot post menu bit (where the author badge shows up)
FYI this is not just forums. Covers all commenting and reviews areas across the suite, and likely 3rd party apps as well if they are using (directly, not copying) the default templates involved there. 
Extra FYI: when it shows up in the MP it will be called Online Status
Where would you put the FA icon? Replace the dot? Replace the badge? Both?

No. I am on vacation. 

I have pasted as "centered" with editors button

 
and the code
 
<div class="ipsEmbeddedVideo" contenteditable="false"> <div> <iframe allow="accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture" allowfullscreen="" frameborder="0" height="113" src="https://www.youtube.com/embed/KYhFtMKNId4?feature=oembed" width="200"></iframe> </div> </div> <p style="text-align: center;"> &nbsp; </p>  

Well, normally all my template products just inherit the colors from the theme. But many custom themes were setting colors in such a problematic way that I had to force a background color for that article area. Guess I have to add another option to make that optional. 

Why you don't upload ads.txt at the root of your server?

Happy Hump Day, team! Back by popular demand. 😎
I want to put a few of our forthcoming live community features onto your radar. These new live features are designed to encourage members to further engage with the community. Check these out:

Who’s Typing
 


We just implemented a live Who’s Typing feature into our own community. If you're quick, you’ll see a member typing a reply in real time when going to submit your own reply at the form located near the bottom of the topic. 
 
Who’s Viewing



We implemented a live Who's Viewing feature into topics on our community as well. This may sound familiar to you - we already created a "Recently Browsing" block that shows what members are viewing a topic, however that block was a snapshot over a small chunk of time. The new Who's Viewing feature shows what members are viewing a topic (and when they leave) in the present moment.   
 
Image search analysis
 



We're also improving our native search by automatically informing the platform to look for items featured in photos.
In this example, @Matt posted a photo of an apple in a topic. 
I used the search tool and looked up the word "apple" and voila! The platform found his image of an apple. The new smart learning technology will identify as many keywords as possible in an image to make searching faster, more efficient and accurate. 
Speaking of Matt... he published a new dev blog about some of the things to expect in the near future, including updating the minimum PHP requirement to 7.4 and the recommended version to 8.0, as well as working on PHP 8.1 compatibility for a June release.  
As he mentioned, there will not be a May update release, however June's is already looking extra spicy.
See all the updates that are coming.
 
 
It's worth mentioning the live community features will be available on our standard plans. If that sounds of interest to you, please feel free to reach out to me. We do have some new features in the works for self-hosted clients as well, but more on that later. 
PS - we're testing out a new sentiment analysis feature that scores a topic based on how positive, neutral or negative it is. Let's keep this one as high-vibe and positive as possible please. I'd love to get a high score. 😇 
Let us know what you think in the comments! We're looking forward to hearing from you. 

I set up a zap using "visible only" but it's still being called for all files regardless if it's approved or not.

FX Pages 2.3.0 is released:
NEW! Templates for videos section
NEW! Template for image gallery
