    I’m doing this now a little per day for the last week on one of my sites and it’s brutal. Would love to search for a keyword or phrases and move those topics accordingly in bulk.

    AlexWebsites reacted to opentype in Large community? You have a problems with sitemap!   
    Looks normal to me. “currently not indexed” is Google’s decision, that those pages are not relevant enough. It doesn’t point to any technical problems that need fixing.

    AlexWebsites got a reaction from The Old Man in SparkPost Integration   
    Not sure if this helps, but the outgoing mail log shows the new user is sent an email that they need to validate their account and the same email is on the suppression list, so IPS is sending the email but then sparkpost suppresses it. The user can never validate. Luckily, most of my new users leave that checked on, but I'm getting 1-2 a day that don't and manually uncheck it during registration, so they never receive the actual email to validate their account.

    For anyone else that requires email validation for registration, go to your member setting and check validating users. Run those email addresses through the suppression list checker. Remove them and resent the validation until this fix comes out.
    I imagine if you have Opt In selected and your check mark by default is off, all your users will never get any emails because they'll all be on the suppression list after registration.

    @HeadStand,  I checked some un-validated (by email for registration) members who have unchecked that setting to receive news and updates, and registered before I installed this app, and they are not on the suppression list. 
    Can you verify your app isn't putting emails on the suppression list when a user checks that setting off? I think that setting is supposed to prevent IPS from sending out bulk mail only.
    On another note, every time I search an email address on the suppression list, it comes up twice. The delete X removes them both though.

    A new version has been uploaded to the Marketplace. Changes include:
    SparkPost EU did not work correctly. Fixed. SparkPost is now an option on the standard Email Settings page. NOTE: You must still configure the distribution using the Community Enhancements page. Outgoing Mail Logs are now available I believe the bouncer app stores the results of each bounce locally. So it isn't retrieving the those results from the API, but from its local list.  This is something I'd like to do with a web hook, but I haven't had a chance to implement that yet.

    AlexWebsites got a reaction from PrettyPixels in Add subscriptions page to registration process   
    Please consider adding the subscriptions page to the registration process without forcing users to purchase a subscription. 
    Maybe after quick registration (via IPS or social connect), redirect the member to the subscription page to view available subscriptions and a link below the packages to continue without subscribing (similar to products). Maybe a plugin can do this by a developer. 
    Right now, I see no way of building in subscriptions during the registration process without forcing users to pick a package. But then if you offer a free membership, you need to create package for this which might not be the best solution at $0.00.

    AlexWebsites reacted to stoo2000 in Mail Bouncer - Automated Bounce Management   
    It'll be supported from the next release. @AlexWebsites had a pre-release of that code, however it was still finding the 'stock' sparkpost api key setting before seeing that a third party application was present with an api key. I've changed that so it'll work properly (and as I note, be in the next release).

    AlexWebsites reacted to stoo2000 in Mail Bouncer - Automated Bounce Management   
    It's potentially on the radar, to be honest I haven't yet seen enough demand for Amazon SES to dedicate the development time to implementing it and supporting it.
     
     
     
    I will consider it, it goes against one of the original ideas behind the app in that it is not something you need to configure for it to work. You install it and it just works if you use one of the supported services already.
     
    I have replied to your support ticket. Sorry for the delay.

    The banner image is displaying correctly. The preview is stretched out for some reason, but that's not crucial. The actual test distribution seems to align properly and without bullets. Thanks.

    One feature suggestion - add the url to the popup box so it can be easily copied and pasted. What happens to me is that I roll over the url to try and copy and paste it into a browser to check and it automatically engages the popup box. Maybe list it right on top?

    Found the issue, in the Application.php file changed:
    /* Delete file system logs */ if( \IPS\Settings::i()->manage_404_pruneAfterDays ) { \IPS\Db::i()->delete( 'smanage404_links', array( 'logtime < ?', \IPS\DateTime::create()->sub( new \DateInterval( 'P' . \IPS\Settings::i()->manage_404_pruneAfterDays . 'D' ) )->getTimestamp() ) ); } } to
    /* Delete file system logs */ if( \IPS\Settings::i()->manage_404_pruneAfterDays ) { \IPS\Db::i()->delete( 'manage404_links', array( 'logtime < ?', \IPS\DateTime::create()->sub( new \DateInterval( 'P' . \IPS\Settings::i()->manage_404_pruneAfterDays . 'D' ) )->getTimestamp() ) ); } } Task now ran successfully.

    I misunderstood the issue. Sorry about that. I will look into this either tonight or tomorrow.
    This means that the video application is missing a language string, though I doubt that would cause a problem with distribution... that error would hit when you are creating the newsletter. Do you have any newsletter content configured for videos?

    I agree, this is what I'm using. IPS seems to have a good amount of framework around Redis which seems to be the preferred caching method.

    AlexWebsites reacted to 33andrain in Google Adsense Monetization Optimization *Uber* Thread   
    Hi - Think I mentioned in the OP, but maybe it was confusing. I use a mixture of manually placed (asynchronous?) tags AND auto ads.
    The particular Auto Ads I like are the mobile anchors, which stick to the top/bottom of pages. They are highly annoying and obtrusive 👹. I also have Vignettes enabled but I've never seen them in action. And lastly, I have either the In Feed or In Article ads enabled. One of these causes the issue identified in your linked thread, where the ads overlay the actual text in the posts. The other nicely and conveniently places ads within the content of longer posts. The other, I disabled via Google's settings to stop the overlay issue from occurring.
    Does this help? 
    Hi Sonya - Thank you for sharing your experience RE: CTR. This is helpful and makes sense.
    May I ask how you are using AdSense? Via Auto Ads? Would you like me to just explain exactly, in steps, how I am manually placing ads using custom keys?

    Good topic, can I ask you...Are you using adsense auto ads exclusively instead of using their asynchronous ad tags for different placements? How is auto ads working for you, revenue better or worse? I tried using it back in February but took it down in favor of individual ads.

    Maybe only check boxes come up if you apply the filter per app basis. It would make it so much easier to organize content.

    Just a quick comparison, this snapshot was taken in June and today I'm gong further down on the same site in terms of indexed pages from the built in IPS sitemap. Looks like almost 8k in pages no longer indexed. In addition to that, this site is down about 30% in traffic now in October.

    Third time is a charm, I just reinstalled the plugin and now the setting below the forum is saving and working. However, back to displaying clubs when they shouldn't be. I was logged in as a user who is part of 2 clubs. Logged out and those 2 clubs show to guests. Logged in as another member that is not part of any clubs and they are showing under that member. While logged in as that member, I ran the support tool. The clubs now disappeared for that member (like it should be).
    Now, log back in as the member who is part of 2 clubs, none show. Ran the support tool and now they show. 
    I just can't run the support tool every time to have it accurate. Maybe it's a redis thing or sessions issue? Hope this helps you troubleshot it!

    I just purchased this plugin but cannot get it to work. Using IPS 4.3.6. Do I need to enable:

    I tried with it enabled and the way it is now, only within clubs. Here's what I have for the plugin settings:

     
    EDIT: I ran the support tool and got them to show up without having IPS default show clubs in content area. However, logging out, it still showed those clubs as a guest. I ran the support tool again and they disappeared and would not come back when I logged back in. I tried logging in as a different user and it did not show their clubs but mine.
    So in summary, I am having the same issues as @David T. Cole where the list only updates correctly after running the support tool.
