You can make a quick fix by a template. Do you want this or wait ?

It's cool I can wait - It is not in use beyond admins as yet as I am waiting for the feature to bulk import email addresses to send invites which we talked about earlier in this thread that I believe you were planning for the next release.

Thanks

@Adriano Faria

Strange Issue - My invites sit at 57 currently, if I receive a notification then the display changes to match the number of notifications I have received that are new. When I refresh the page it returns back to what it should be 57 Invites and 1 notification

@Adriano Faria 

It would also be good to allow a member to claim a new members as a member that they invited to the forum in case that member signed up without entering the invitation code in instances where it is not required to sign up and remains optional. I think this needs some kind of validation to confirm they did invite them so it may be one of the two following things are in place;

• Members email address is on their Invite List and they  register without the code, it still shows as converted to the member that issued the invite.
• In cases where it was word of mouth, the member that told them about the forum could claim that member was invited by them and it would then need the invitee to confirm that they were invited by this member.

You may even feel it appropriate for someone registering on the forum to be able to enter a member display name as the person that invited them in place of the invitation code.

Just a few suggestions to consider.

@Adriano Faria

Is there a way to import a number of email addresses and batch send them an invite - I have a database of users from a marketing campaign that I would like to use this for - I thought that is what the Batch Invite option might have done but I cannot figure it out. 

Any ideas?

If the email is already in use by any member, it won't send the invitation.

Purchased - thank you

@Adriano Faria

Does the system refuse to send an invite if the email address already exists within the system please or does it send it anyway? 

Ideally I would like the ability to not send to existing users.

Thanks

Off the top of my head, I can think of some cool ways the invite system could be coupled with other apps using rules:

• Event: Member sends an invitation
• Event: Member registers from an invitation
• Event: An invitation has expired
• Event: An invitation has been renewed
• Condition: Member was invited by another member
• Action: Send an invitation for a member
• Action: Give a member another invitation
• Action: Expire an invitation
• Action: Renew an invitation

Just by adding a few ECA's, someone could start tying apps together with invites, such as giving out economy points to members when they send invites. Or giving them awards with iAwards when they reach a certain amount of recruits. Or granting another invitation when a previous one expires. Or posting a welcome topic when a member registers from an invitation. Or promoting a member to a new group based on their number of converted invitations or whether they were invited themselves.

Hi @Adriano Faria

I would also love to see this implemented - it gives a lot of flexibility to tie into many other events across the forum

The options are endless.

I'll take the load off for you. Just get me a copy of your app and I'll code the rules extension for you.

Well done @Kevin Carwile for agreeing to code the ECA's 

#TEAMWORK 

@Adriano Faria - the message field would be good if it was an editor rather than plain text and a second thing it would be good if possible to choose the alert css from alert, warn, info etc

Thanks

@onlyME Fixed thanks

Hi all, V4.1.1 is out

• Added 'all' checkbox for categories selection.
• New setting to for the default no-image.
• New option to get only specified contents (pinned, featured).
• Never get archived topics.

 

Threads with No Images are now appearing since this update even though the option is set not to display if no image exists?

@Kevin Carwile - is there any plans to bring about ECA's for commerce - I know it has been discussed previously but just wondered where this was at I guess?

No not yet, have been preoccupied with critical IPB 4.1 updates. I'll be going through another round of bug fixes again but won't be for a few more weeks.

Hi - the issue here is that it is not useable and I have paid for a product plus support yet it has already been 4 weeks since reported to you and you are saying a few weeks more. 

On 2 November 2015 at 18:27:03, onlyME said:

I love your idea, I will try it.

Hi - just wandering if this is something you think is going to be possible, hopefully you have had time to try it out?

Many Thanks

@Mike John - Is there any fix to the bug that was identified on the 12th October please? When is a fix due?

Just now, onlyME said:

I love your idea, I will try it.

Great thank you

@onlyME - If automatically pulling 'Forum' content from a specific forum - could we have an option to only display the content in the slider IF there is an image attached so that we never get the No Image showing? Not always do our members place an image within the content so I would want those stories to not be included in the slider if possible?

Another trouble thing is when you disable app, so many forums & subforums appears on index page. It's not better to hide them ? By settings permissions on disabling ?

Thanks you

Agreed - I had to edit all the category permissions

I am not 100% sure if this is your issue or 4.1 but I see the Collab words in there :)

Yes, I need to find time to create some documentation for that. But basically, it can be used for all sorts of things. I know of a user who wanted to log changes made to the copyright field of images. For me, I needed a way to log time spent on project management tasks on ipsguru. But theoretically, it could be used to log achievements to a user, or milestones to a topic, or moderation actions in a forum, or.... whatever you want to keep a log of.

In your instance, I'm not exactly sure what you mean by "overtime a member logs in", but the process is basically the same for any log you want to use.

• Create the log in the Rules ACP under "Custom Logs" attached to whatever system entity (member, node, content) the log will be tracked to.
• Add any additional log data fields you want to show in the log by adding "Log Arguments".
• Through your own devised rules, simply add the action to add a log entry to the log in question whenever it is appropriate.

As an example:

On IPS Guru, I have a pages database for "tasks" that I use to track activity on specific tasks for custom projects. Through pages, I have a radio field that has two options for the task "In progress" and "Task Idle". I have enabled this database for collaborative use so that I can create tasks inside of collabs.

Via rules, I have added a custom integer data field to the "task" content type. So with rules, I set the current date/time timestamp when the task is updated to "in progress", and then calculate how much time was spent on it when the task is updated again to "task idle". I create a log for the task when the session is started, and when it is ended and have added a couple custom log arguments so that I can log the total time for the session, and an overall time for the task. Works pretty good for my needs.

Sorry Kevin that should have said every time a member logs in as a login log - predictive text grrrr

@Kevin Carwile

Kevin - could you give me an example use of the Custom Log facility - I see documentation is not ready as yet. For instance to create a log of overtime a member logs in to our site - how would this be achieved please or is this not its purpose?

I'll need board access to troubleshoot this further, I'm not able to reproduce this right now.

I will PM you some credentials now.

4.0.13.1

No restrictions I know of no.

1 hour ago, Mike John said:

What version of IPB 4 are you using? Assume you've got no restrictions in place that might stop it from showing in the global hook?

@Mike John

No message any longer displays without using widgets - if I switch on the global hook and remove all widgets it never displays. Even if I create a default new theme with no logo customisation or anything I still get no message displaying using the global hook.

Can I bump my previous post as well please and also ask what the plans are now Activity Stream has been refreshed and does the same thing in 4.1 ?
