    AlexWebsites reacted to bfarber in Large community? You have a problems with sitemap!   
    I don't think it will have any impact, mostly because we use canonical meta tags to prevent duplicate "pages" being indexed. When I clicked on this topic I ended up at URL:
    https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/442742-large-community-you-have-a-problems-with-sitemap/page/10/?tab=comments#comment-2784429 In the HTML page source I have
    <link rel="canonical" href="https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/442742-large-community-you-have-a-problems-with-sitemap/page/10/" /> So when Google visits the URL I did, the resulting URL they will index is 
    https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/442742-large-community-you-have-a-problems-with-sitemap/page/10/  
    With your customization you are attempting to send signals to Google "look at this URL and this URL and this URL" all from the same topic with the same canonical tag, which is different from the URL in the sitemap. I think, if anything, this will cause confusion to Google's spiders along the lines of "why does their sitemap say to index url X but when we visit it they tell us the canonical URL is Y?"

    @DawPi has completed the custom sitemap application that I mentioned which handles all posts. You can see an example of it here:
    https://www.celiac.com/sitemap_posts.php
    but it is modeled after the existing sitemap--but this one handles just forum posts. We were not able to add a minimum word count to this application, as one person suggested, because it slowed things down and put a load on the CPU. We were, however, able to add the ability to exclude certain forums, for example my site has around 25 different forums, so I was able to exclude a general chit chat and a technical support forum that are more or less off the main topic of my site.
    Whether or not this will be a benefit or liability in Google search is an open question, but I'll follow up here with any noticeable changes, positive or negative.
    I believe this will have positive results, simply because we are making it easier for Google to index specific content and allow them to provide more relevant search results for any given query. Currently Google's results may send people to a topic page like this one /page/10/, and the person who searched will still have to fish on it for the specific results of their query. With all posts indexed, Google should be able to send the person directly to the content that answers their query...at least that is my hope here.
    Anyone interested in this app can contact @DawPi
    Here is a screenshot of the admin page:

    For clarify - it currently hides content if the user viewing the content is a member of the groups chosen in the plugin settings.
    Am I correct in reading that you would like to be able to hide content if the post has been made by a member of a group instead?

    It was a feature in previous IPS Chat version. In the main menu where Chat tab is, there was a number of currently active users in the chat. If there is nobody in the chat, then there is just a "Chat" if there are two users, then the menu tab looks like "Chat (2)".

    .ipsApp_front is also a class on the body element, so you need to remove the space (I've also moved that class to the front of the selector for clarity):
    body.ipsApp_front[data-pageapp="forums"][data-pagemodule="forums"][data-pagecontroller="index"] .ipsBreadcrumb { display: none !important; } An alternative way is using the data-pagelocation attribute in the same way you've used the others, since that tells you whether it's 'front' or 'admin':
    body[data-pagelocation="front"][data-pageapp="forums"][data-pagemodule="forums"][data-pagecontroller="index"] .ipsBreadcrumb { display: none !important; } Either of those approaches should work 🙂

    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.

    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.

    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.
