    SJ77 reacted to Matt in Downloads basket?   
    This remains on our list but there are some technical challenges to overcome based on the relationship between transactions, packages and invoices.

    We want to add it too, but it’s pegged for a time when we need to perform major surgery in those areas.

    I had a downloads cart developed for my site. One of the issues that I have ran into is something I didn't think about before hand.
    If many items are in a cart and purchased at the same time, then the customer wants a refund on just 1 of the items in the cart things become tricky.
    The refund feature will refund the entire purchase and not just the single item.

    Thanks for clarifying. 
    My initial instinct was that I must be missing something, as it's the kind of thing you'd just assume would be included - which probably suggests it would be a very useful feature. 
    I imagine if this were an option at least, there's a lot of Downloads customers who would want to enable this for their sites. From a user perspective, I am far more likely to buy multiple things at once, than go through the checkout individually one at a time (especially for small cheap files).
    I'd probably use this feature on the IPS marketplace too. I can already imagine adding a couple of themes & plugins to my basket as a bit of a shortlist, then ordering them (all at once) later on. 
    The topic of chargebacks came up recently as well - this would help with that. It would be better for someone to buy several things in one transaction, than lots of things in separate transactions, as that significantly increases the total amount of chargeback risk & fees that could be incurred.

    Oh, so a process where you select a number of files and then make one purchase for all the things in your cart. That's surprisingly not a thing?

    I am surprised there has not been more momentum behind this request. 
    Individually checking out for every download item surely reduces the chances of bulk buying. 
    An 'add to cart' button would be incredibly useful.

    Not a Downloads customer, but that's a weird UX oversight.

    SJ77 reacted to CoffeeCake in no access to database for user   
    It's going to be either a wrong password or your user doesn't have the @localhost scope. Maybe it's 127.0.0.1?
    Check your MySQL user and make sure it's the correct username and host pattern.
    Also is the socket path correct/used?

    SJ77 reacted to Jordan Miller in something like facebook live for IPB?   
    Appreciate you finding that. I think this might not meet @SJ77's needs though? "Live Streams from Twitch.tv, Mixer.com, Youtube.com, and Smashcast.tv." I think they're asking for it to be directly in their Invision Community? Unless I'm mistaken 😆

    Another marketplace app you might want to browse through the feature list to see if it might meet you needs:
    Chat Application - Applications and Plugins - Invision Community

    There's probably certain types of content that can't be streamed on YouTube or other mainstream content, and for that it would be nice to have some sort of integration with other platforms. There may be plugins on the Marketplace.
    Cloudflare has a streaming solution, though not sure what policies one must follow regarding the content of those streams.

    There's nothing that I know of. Video is pretty hard generally, it needs to be transcoded into a streamable format (and of course, not all devices agree on the streaming method). To add in a broadcast live video functionality is probably beyond the limitations for the average hosted forum.

    When it's come up in the past, we generally recommend that they leverage YouTube's live functionality and paste the video into a post. I believe you can schedule live videos in YT and get a link to embed before the event.

    SJ77 reacted to Morrigan in Can we get an agree or +1 reaction on IPS (or both)?   
    This is because there are a lot of opinion based threads here. I don't think "Like" is a good reaction when you want to agree or support what has been said in a thread but currently the only agreeable reaction. 
    Like is a broad (and at least for me) a very default way for people to respond/react to something that they simply think was a good read.
    In some cases I would like to actually agree with what the member is saying or support it with a +1. To me agreeing versus liking something will give me a better way to show my appreciation to a members post.
    An example a cute joke in the middle of an opinion thread would get a like or a 'haha' but something that brings up good points can get my 'agree'.

    SJ77 reacted to Lindy in PayPal changes effective March 11, 2021   
    If you're using it for true mass payment purposes, you should still be within the spirit of the AUP. That policy suggests you would not be in compliance, however, if you are making payments through the system on an individual basis. 
    In any event, there doesn't appear to be any technical changes or impact; it's merely a clarification of policy.

    SJ77 reacted to ahc in PayPal changes effective March 11, 2021   
    That's interesting indeed.
    Maybe this will be the push Invision needs to stop using the outdated MassPay API and integrate the newer Payouts API which does allow individual payments.  It's much cheaper and allows you to send payments to both PayPal and Venmo accounts which helps in countries that don't have PayPal available to them.
    Edit:  It doesn't actually look like anything is changing, but I could be wrong so we shall wait and see.  I read through the link and it looks like they're just explaining the guideline more clearly, probably due to some confusion with past clients?
