AlexWebsites got a reaction from Percival in Word Filter - Rebuild Posts/Content
It would be great if there was a feature to rebuild posts after a word filter(s) was added. I know there are some plugins/apps to achieve this but something built in sounds like a no brainer for a complete word filter solution.
Also, is there a template to use a word filter xml file? Or is this created when you have these on one site and then download?

AlexWebsites reacted to Nathan Explosion in Add PHP Compatibility to all Marketplace Apps Going Forward
A field that would...
need to be updated with or without any actually changes required to the resource. add additional approvals for IPS to perform ultimately be ignored, with questions still being asked in support topics like "does this support IPS 4.x?" or "does this support PHP 8.x?"

AlexWebsites reacted to Chris Anderson in Add PHP Compatibility to all Marketplace Apps Going Forward
Many self-hosted servers are setup to support running just one version of PHP. All PHP scripts need to support that particular version or there will be compatibility issues.
Now that PHP 7.4 is approaching it's EOL there will be a concerted effort by developers to ensure their PHP code supports PHP 8.0 and PHP 8.1 in the very near future.
The challenge is that some developers will release products that will only work when PHP 8.0 or PHP 8.1 is running on a server as they will have decided to abandon support for PHP 7.4 all together.
So IPS and custom and marketplace apps will support (or not) a variety of vastly different PHP versions for the next several years.
With the upcoming release of 4.7 developers are already starting to upload compatible updates of their apps.
The rule of thumb in the past has been that marketplace submissions had to fully support PHP 7.4 and support for PHP 8 or higher was optional, so there was little reason to note PHP compatibility.
Now that PHP 8 support is no longer going to be optional but will soon be a necessity the marketplace will need to track PHP compatibility for each new release.
After a quick audit of the new marketplace releases, some developers are being very diligent and are clearly noting which PHP versions are supported and some are not.
It would be nice to put into place a marketplace guideline that all new uploads post 4.7 should clearly state which PHP version or versions that release is fully compatible with.
That way customers can audit their marketplace purchases to see if all of them will uniformly support a particular PHP version.
It would be great if IPS added an additional "File Information" attribute as shown below to allow customers to more readily see and search for PHP version compatibility on this site and in the ACP marketplace.
Hopefully, PHP 8.2 and beyond we won't have to worry so much about PHP compatibility.

AlexWebsites reacted to sound in Hump Day: what features would you like to add to the Alerts System?
commerce alert
monitor the invoices table so that any member with an invoice that is still pending (not paid) after say 24/48/72 hrs (settable option) period gets sent an alert suggesting that they should finish the sale

AlexWebsites got a reaction from Canis in Hump Day: video streaming coming soon
Video streaming sounds great, although I'm self-hosted so I will wait to get excited. I would settle for 3rd party video conversion/streaming from cloudflare 😎

AlexWebsites reacted to Morrigan in Does IPS work with MySql8
Yes and it works. That's all I cared about. What @Marc Stridgen said its probably the best info.

AlexWebsites reacted to Stuart Silvester in New notification when content is approved in 4.6
Default values are used if the member hasn't set their preference for the notification type. It's fixed in 4.7 so you don't really need to do anything 🙂

AlexWebsites got a reaction from SeNioR- in New notification when content is approved in 4.6
@Stuart Silvester encouraged me to look into this as he mentioned not having an issue with some testing. I may have found the fix to this and got it working on my sites. Turns out that even though the default notification settings in ACP where correct for email:
The DB was not showing this under the default notifications table and showing inline only (not sure why).
I re-saved in ACP and now the db is correct:
After this, it does seem to be working. It seems that the fix may be to re-save the default notifications in ACP. Why the db did not reflect what is in ACP, I do not know. I am going to have to recheck all default notifications and re-save them. Check your db table core_notification_defaults if you are having issues.

AlexWebsites got a reaction from Percival in New notification when content is approved in 4.6
Something must have happened along the lines/updates. I would encourage everyone to re-save because they may not be sending notifications. I also noticed reaction notifications not going out and this was the reason. Push notification alone were mostly not active. Weird, but glad I found this. All these months waiting for a fix...lol. I re-saved notification preferences on all my sites. Maybe it'll stimulate more activity...

Thank for your follow-up via ticket @AlexWebsites.
We've got some fixes for this issue coming in the next 4.7 beta.

AlexWebsites reacted to Nathan Explosion in (NE) Hide content
v4.0.1 is currently pending approval
This is a big rewrite of the application - since it began life in November 2016 as my first attempt at a plugin, it has turned into a bit of a beast. And this beast needed taming to change how the content was inspected, to simplify adding in additional items to be hidden should it need to be done and also to remove some kludges that were in place to achieve certain things requested over the years.
v4.0.1 also includes the following:
NEW
added ability for audio attachments to be hidden added ability to hide content in Pages database reviews (was already possible with comments) added ability to limit number of Pages database reviews shown when using the 'Hide all content' functionality (was already possible with comments) added ability to hide content in Calendar events/comments/reviews added ability to limit number of Calendar event reviews & comments shown when using the 'Hide all content' functionality content loaded via inline notifications is now processed, and content hidden as configured (see https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/434067-ne-hide-replies-from-guests/?do=findComment&comment=2869307) added ability to suppress the inline 'New replies' notification in topics (if hiding all content & limiting number of replies displayed) added ability to enclose 'Hide all content' message in an "ipsMessage" box CHANGES
settings controller name changed to provide uniqueness (note: if administrator restriction has previously been used to restrict access to settings, please revisit to apply restriction again) some minor language string updates removed several redundant language strings FIXES
fixed issue with 'Spoiler' account settings impacting ability to hide videos if both spoilers & videos are chosen to be hidden in the content. -
AlexWebsites got a reaction from leonovich_J in Hump Day: video streaming coming soon
Since video streaming is an enterprise option only, I would say it does not apply to the majority on these forums. I would not have posted this, it only points out what the majority will not get. Especially with a title like "video streaming coming soon"...click bait!

AlexWebsites reacted to opentype in Hump Day: video streaming coming soon
There is nothing wrong with staying informed about the entire product line. After all, some admins will be interested in switching to the cloud offer, if it provides features or benefits they might want. So, they want to get that information as well. We just need to be able to easily tell which new feature applies to which plan.

AlexWebsites got a reaction from OptimusBain in Hump Day: video streaming coming soon
Maybe make an enterprise only membership and forum then. Who really cares if you will never be an enterprise client? Why do I need to know about something I will never have available to me? I've wasted time reading someting thinking its a great new feature, that in turn, will not exist for me and many, many others.

AlexWebsites reacted to Jordan Miller in Hump Day: video streaming coming soon
I hear you and appreciate you weighing in. I don't necessarily agree we should stop informing the community as a whole about new capabilities our platform is capable of. However, I think it's worth mentioning that I will do better next time when talking about a new feature (that will include access for people on our self-hosted plans).
