    All Astronauts got a reaction from Steph40 in Pages Category Images / Pages Searchable Text Fields   
    PCI Version 3.0.2 submitted.
    4.5.x and 4.6.x compatible.
    This moves all your images off the actual Pages Categories database table into a separate table.
    You do NOT need to change any of your template code; this remains 100% compatible with whatever you are doing before.
    Code examples for a reminder:
    <img src='{file="$category->pcimage"}'> The above where you have the $category variable available.
    <img src='{file="$record->container()->pcimage"}'> And that above for when you are in a record view template and have the $record variable available. You should be able to see the basic chain there record - then it call the container (which is the category the record is in) - and then our category image.
    I do have caching of the new PCI database table. 99.99% it will never be a problem, when the category is being built out it actually double checks for the cache and if not there does a load from the DB directly. If something happens though, you can refresh the cache directly in the ACP on the Pages Databases menu option and any database Categories menu option with the obvious, can't miss button up top.
    EDIT: Will edit/post when it is approved.

    Pretty sure its fine as is.
    Apologies for anyone not getting responses to PMs here. I'm... behind.
    As to this, I need to take another run at this. The problem is IPS will NOT allow any columns added to their own tables any more. Period. Full stop. I have this fixed for Pages for record view, and category view (I think - been awhile). But database index view is a problem as they do not active record that stuff. Its a direct database query. I get a little leery the further up I go, getting closer to lower level functions, for hooking and changing things. I probably shouldn't worry; I usually bullet proof stuff enough anyways to not spill over. But this is not as simple as slipping into the AR routines as Pages is messy in this regard (probably because the entire thing is an abstraction itself)
    Anyways, I'll poke this bear. FYI most of my junk was updated to 4.6 but IPS staff are back-logged with MP approvals so might still be awhile.

    Got a patch inbound. This is the limit the # of attachments bit which I *DID* fix (see posts further above) but apparently clipped a leading \ off at some point when calling \IPS\.... No idea...
    Taking a moment to also double secret verify this is all good.
    EDIT: Submitted and support ticket opened to push it to the front of the pile.

    All Astronauts got a reaction from Daniel F in S3 Compatible Downloads   
    Its a special hell when services say they are S3 compatible and they are...mostly S3 compatible. Its the mostly that ends up being a hitch "somewhere".
    Reminder to all about this derpy thing. It does NOTHING at all, anywhere, other than when a user tries to download an attachment - then it wipes the signature in the temporary download url the user hits so they can get it when your non-Amazon S3 service chokes on the signature IPS generates (as IPS is locked in to Amazon exclusively).
    That's it.
    If you have problems using alt-S3 services (using the service at all, moving files, etc.), it's not on this plugin. 
    When you try a not-Amazon S3 service, run through the basics. Can you upload a file via the service through Invision Community? If uploads work, can you delete? If so, can you move the files this S3 service and local storage (File System)? If so, you are in probably in business. Then, for completeness, if your users might be able to download the files that are stored on this service (Downloads, Attachments, etc.) give that a try. If it fails, throw this plugin in and see if clearing the signature lets them through (something something public buckets etc.). If it doesn't work you are sol or you'll need to find someone to write a full new filestorage method. FYI, if you go this route, there be dragons. You should have a firm control of your dev ops at a minimum...
    If IPS support gives you grief if you submit a ticket regarding S3 problems because you have this plugin installed, then just uninstall this plugin and try them again (as stated above this plugin ain't doing much...). That said, I would not expect much from that request anyways as I'm pretty sure they are not going to help you with the S3 problems you have with your not-Amazon S3 service. IPS officially supports Amazon S3. Anything else is going to be outside IPS support scope.

    Probably but it's EOL. Last supported was 4.4
    That's the up-to-date version, an app now so much more extensible. Will be adding support for lots of stuff.

    Not sure how they can change that to be more obvious, other than maybe altering the language bit there to say "Changelog / Previous Versions".
    Maybe make that an actual button rather than just a subtle link?

    2.0.0 submitted. Avail when it's approved. For 4.6 and up, not for y'all lingering on 4.5.x
    REMOVED! Lazy Load on userphoto template - IPS has included same natively with 4.6 FIX! Limiting attachments in forum posts was either slightly broke or just slightly broke on 4.6; patched. NEW! Recent Status Updates widget now with three possible views AND you can customize the number of lines output per update - no more three line limit! TWEAK! for when displaying both topic and post count stats together to add more room for larger counts NEW! Remove the icon area from Forum index displays. NEW! Append <new> badges at the end of forum titles when new content is within in index view - combine with removed icon area for a clean lean look. NEW! Above also does the same for link forums and password-protected forums. And the usual etc... and 4.6 compatibility yada yada
    New options to go ambient with forum views (on index, and forum blocks within forums). Remove the icon area, append badges instead of those dot when there is new content, matching badges for password and link forums, yes, on click, they will mark the respective forums read and so on. I do this on my sites and customs and got tired of hacking themes all the time so jammed it in here.
         
    Two new status update widget views. Expands the content to fill the block which is so much better and, because I wanted it and no longer could wait for it, you can customize the number of lines displayed per-update beyond the default three. I sound like a broken record but it is so much better being able to read most if not all of the usual updates people post without it getting severely truncated.
    For those tracking my updating for 4.6, Spacious ACP is probably next, then Viewers, then I need to look at some older plugins that had some problems officially coming up to the 4.5 line.
    Toodles. 👩‍🚀

    All Astronauts got a reaction from OptimusBain in Kitchen Sink   
    @OptimusBain In the forums section of KS, set number of attachments on or off, toggle it on, and then set the subsequent number of attachments field to a high number (whatever you like). Either I spaced that being zero = unlimited or something changed in 4.6 (I'd bet a lot more on the former than the latter - in fact I probably spaced setting it at zero as a default at all)
    Patched in the new version but that should (???) get you going again.

    All Astronauts got a reaction from BankFodder in Speedy Search and Stream Results   
    Doing some more poking on and off over the last few weeks. Got some new display options in-bound for the search results page. Mostly just to put the focus on results, and less on the extraneous information. Nothing massively transformative (tempted but that means new templates and more hooks all around...) but you'll probably like them.
    Also took another, deeper, look into the IPS truncating results with 4.5, specifically the search JS, and that 600 character max-trim on the PHP side ends up mostly being 300 characters and change on the display side after the marking function works it over, in case any one was wondering why all the results end up being two lines of text usually. So... blah. It means a JS mixin that overrides one of the search results JS functions to get around this and bring more flex back into play. Maybe, but not sure this will be the next release or not.
    As mentioned much, much, earlier, the reason for missing marks on the results page is that initial 600 character truncate as they only take the first 600 characters of the content item whether the search result is in it or not. SSSR took care of most of that by pre-finding the matching bit but there were still some misses being pushed out. Found the (obvious) hitch and I'll try and get that patched up for next release and voila - should have marks on every result going forward.
