Spoil sport 🙄 I can confirm this works... 😂 I believe you should be able to do this with the rebuild feature if using a specific rule.

I don't see that option?

First bit of feed back on achievements. While I see an option to manually add a badge, it has to be done via AdminCP? Wouldn't it make sense and save time to be able to manually add a badge while on the front end via the members profile? Seems very long winded to have to sign in to ACP, find the member, go to profile, press badges and then add badge. Also, there is no badge box on a user profile when first setup under 'Your Achievements'. However, once a badge is added the box appears. But, I believe that a box should already exist, that you can press to go into (like the rep box) and there we could have a button to add badges. And to add. I think a few sites will have a lot of badges (I believe I will) so, instead of having to scroll forever to find the badge. Could it be fed back that we could setup categories and add badges under each one (ACP)?

I questioned the same just a few posts down. And was answered within. It’s because they use SSO now.

Gave it a spin last night when I saw it go live in the client area. Got it set up on my Mac… Here comes hours of work on setting up achievements after work tonight. Yay. 😂

Thanks for explaining.

Yeah as the results. A few members thought it might be better than showing a percentage at the end of the quiz.

A bit of a random one here, but could it be possible of using names/words instead of percentages (%)? 100% = Excellent 15% = Poor

Jesus, I thought this was a before and after! *I’ll show myself out………* 🚶‍♂️ On a side note; I think we need to take Charles on a good night out. 💃

Agreed, I've sunk some in to mine, but I refuse to any more. The most I'll do is update and hosting. I have visions of mine and what I'd like it to be but it would cost into the 1000's and it's just not worth it, when everyone gets a similar experience on Reddit/Facebook.

A brilliant question, but I fear no one really has an answer to it. I've trialled the APP, but for my reasons above, it's of no use to me. For mobile use, it's a lost cause in my eyes. I'll always prefer to sit at a desktop/laptop and browse that way. But, we can't forget the x amount of people who prefer to do everything on their phones. I usually try to tell users that for the best possible experience, use a desktop. But, even this has backfired. I know people personally who don't even have a computer/monitor. They simply use their phone or tablet for everything as that's all they require. A little search of Google here and there and FB for everything else. Personally I don't think forums are for phones... You just don't have the space. So, I hope we do another transition in years to come and go back to PC's or bigger screen that make use of a desktop view. For now, I plan to do nothing as there is nothing that can be done that would cater for my needs. I'll just have to take the hit and hope it passes, as I won't be sinking any money into a hobby. If I were a business I'd make my own forums/app and have it all in house. IPS are certainly in a pickle. But if you only use IPS applications, then their app will bridge some of that worry. But then you've got to get people to download the app in the first place. I'm very interested to see what is done, and see if we can fight back on the social media aspects.

Be careful as this will not support iOS/Apple. Which accounts for over 45% of the market.

I had the same as Meddy. Or, you can purchase a new licence for the current site with only what you're going to use and then move the current licence over to the new site (I too have done this).

The problem is that it isn't as simple as making a mobile app. Each community is different, and hosted elsewhere. The best we can get is a generic app which all of our communities connect to. Which is what IPS done, a lot of tested it, but I kept finding myself personally preferring the browser experience. The biggest drawback was that it only supported IPS app and not 3rd party. So it makes my site redundant as 80% is run using plugins and apps for the experience.

Could IPS implement a notification on the front end to remind users of any expiring memberships either through commerce or subscriptions? Notification saying user has X amount of days remaining (possibly with a direct link to renewal). Notification alerting user that their subscription has now lapsed. Notification of user changing user groups (user reverting to the original group). Example: I'm aware of users getting an email invoice, but if they're anything like me and don't check email all that often it can be missed/overlooked. Thanks 🙂

That sounds excellent and I'm sure a worthy integration and will probably be quite popular. Agreed. Maybe in ACP we could just highlight 4 badges to be shown in the postbit in the same overlapping feature as in our profiles. And/or just have the most recently earned ones shown as you say. Brilliant! 🙂

Can the rules be completely customisable? Could I for example, have someone be awarded a badge for creating a topic in a certain category and then also be awarded based on their specific group? Example: User makes 10 posts, changes their user group *badge awarded*. User requests to be put into a certain group after x amount of posts, and each group can award the user who joins *badge awarded to represent their group*. While you currently show rank images, could we also have an option to display badges on the Authorpane in topic view? Or to be able to make a rule where only certain badges can be shown in the topicview? While we have user group icons, I'd like to show special badges as part of the user group. Just a couple of suggestions I had rolling in the head... As it's something I've been trying to do, as at the moment Fosters app allows you to manually award someone.

Must admit, I like the current look, no reason why we couldn't have the option? I'd like another option also to show it below the signature line. 😁

That’s to do with your server. Speak to your host with the errors shown and they will correct it for you. God save us.. 😂

As not to confuse things, I see this achievements blocks. But as I’m only on the mobile today I don’t see the new feature that Matt has posted today. If that’s not live on the site then ignore this. As then I wouldn’t see the mobile version. 😌 Second being what @CoffeeCake has posted above.

Got that Crystal ball yet? 🤣 That’s about as clear as mud, and now you only just mention this issue with absolutely no details. What on earth are meant to take from this? 😂

Will there be anything for the mobile viewing? Or are we to limited on space?

@Matt 😍

Yes that is correct, before the change to 4.0 I believe, a lot of communities ran www.mysite.com/forums. Now with modernisation of the software we can install it in the root directory and select which apps act a default landing page.
