Jim M got a reaction from BradTBP in Feature a postThat was third party. We do not have a way to give a topic image to show in other feeds. Only uploaded images to that topic will show in the Topic Feed block.

Jim M got a reaction from BradTBP in Feature a postIdea is typically to eliminate any extra content in short views like these so quotes are typically removed, as such so are images, etc... Of course, you're welcome to submit Feedback for changing this behavior. However, the last part there about no action button to the actual post, I have brought this up internally. You can click on the date the user posted to get to the post location in the topic but that isn't always clear.

Jim M reacted to Matt in Workflows for Pages DatabasesPages is one of Invision Community’s most powerful features, allowing easy creation of blogs, knowledge bases, documentation, bug trackers and more.
With the new Workflow Manager, it just got a whole lot more powerful.
Workflows
Workflows enable you to perform multiple actions from a single button, triggered by criteria you define. For example, staff can process, approve, reject or update records with a single click, rather than manually working through several steps.
This video walks you through setting up "Approve" and "Reject" buttons in a bug tracker.
Match Criteria
When you create a workflow, you define the match criteria that control which records show the button. In our video, the "Approve" button should only appear on newly submitted bug reports. Once a report is already approved or closed, the button is no longer relevant, so it simply does not show.
Criteria can be based on the item's status (hidden, pinned, featured, and so on) or on the value of a custom field, giving you precise control over when each workflow is available.
Actions
The next step is to configure the actions that fire when the button is clicked. You can mix and match as many as you need:
Post a reply on the record
Change the value of a custom field
Change the item status (pin, hide, feature, and so on)
Notify the item author
Notify specific members
Assign the item to a member or team
If any action needs input from the person running the workflow, such as writing a custom reply, a small dialog will prompt them before the actions run.
Putting it together
With the buttons configured, a single click can mark a bug report as accepted, post a public reply for the author, and fire a webhook to create an issue in GitHub automatically as every time a workflow runs, Invision Community fires an event, meaning you can connect workflows to external tools and services without writing any custom code.
Beyond a bug tracker
Workflows are available for any Pages database. An approval process for submitted articles, a content review pipeline for a knowledge base, or a simple "mark as resolved" button for a support request database are all straightforward to set up.
If you use a database to manage form submissions, a single workflow can update multiple fields and send a notification to whoever needs to take action next.
Workflows are available for Creator Pro, Teams, Business and Enterprise.

Jim M got a reaction from UncrownedGuard in Add Similar Event hides Cover Image field.Thank you for bringing this issue to our attention! I can confirm this should be further reviewed and I have logged an internal bug report for our development team to investigate and address as necessary, in a future maintenance release.

Jim M got a reaction from Phantom_OTIB in New user restrictionsIf you're comfortable finding the group ID from the URL bar when editing the group in the ACP and then editing your conf_global.php, you can certainly change the member group which users are assigned to.
However, if you're not, the next solution would be to swap the names/permissions of your groups then move all in your newbie group that meet your criteria to your member group.
-
Jim M got a reaction from Phantom_OTIB in New user restrictionsYou'll need to check if the user is a part of other member groups or if the group has the bypass moderation enabled. If you're already using group promotions and it promoted incorrectly, is it configured correctly?
-
Jim M got a reaction from Phantom_OTIB in New user restrictionsYup, this is possible via group promotions. Setup your "Newbie" group with restricted permissions and also enabling "Require approval before content shows?" under the Content tab of the group settings. Then your "Member" group with the normal permissions you want.
Finally, you can use group promotions to promote them from Newbie to Member after they reach those 3 posts:

Jim M got a reaction from Phantom_OTIB in Amending Terms and Privacy PolicyI would suggest placing anything that is required in your terms and conditions. However, you can change the name if you wish in the language string by going to ACP -> Customization -> Languages.

Jim M got a reaction from John Horton in Meta Pixel Conflict in IPS4Unfortunately, on my test version 4 instance, I am not able to reproduce this. I would suggest disabling any third party applications/plugins/themes/javascript/etc... to see if that is causing the conflict.

Jim M got a reaction from SheffieldForum in Logo for sender in e-mailsIf you're using our own Cloud email handling, it sends from our own email domain and address so no.
If you are sending via your own email service, then it would rely on the email service and your DNS like it would outside of Cloud.

Jim M got a reaction from My Sharona in Who's OnlineIt was never meant to be a real-time view into who is online as the technology behind it would be too slow and cause your community to be sluggish. That is why we developed the Live Engagement features to see who is viewing the topic and replying. Alternatively, you can click the full list to see real-time.
