  1. Hi IPB Team & Community ^_^
    As images are essential part of forum topic it would be great if uploading of topic images and resizing would be more optimal
    Right now it is quite hassle for first time user of website.

    As admin or Moderator we all know how to upload image and resize but for first time user  it is quite unfriendly.

    As user i have to first "choose files" then click on insert then i have to double click to resize it, if i just single click it do nothing as shown below.

    Even if user able to figure out how to resize image, putting numerical value is kinda odd procedure

    However if we see at other forum software they made this process very user friendly as follows  
    Simple "insert image" button on editor that show upload option

    Automatic Blue resizing border around image once it is uploaded  that user can use to resize the images easily

    if there is any way we could customize editor to make image upload and resizing as above please also let me know.

    We hope IPB team will take note on this and make it more optimized. 

    Thanks

  2. Hi Good Morning
    IPB Community & Team 
    Right Now if user want to create standalone poll (Use Topic Title as Poll Title without separate Topic Title  ) it create duplicate content as Follows

    Because poll can't be created without filling out "Poll Title" and "Question Title" Fields

    It would be great if user able to create polls without filling out "Poll Title" and "Question Title" Fields Then Polls could be shown as follows which will improve polls UI/UX

    I Hope IPB Team will includes this improvement in upcoming IPB 5

    Thanks

  3. Hi Good Morning Guys 

    IPB Team have been doing great job in Term of IPB 5 UI/UX  ^_^

    We wish team also add "Topic Replies" sorting Feature too so user can go to latest reply quickly, or Button to go to "Latest Reply" like following screenshots

    Now it is too difficult for user to go to latest reply of topic when browsing the topic 

    We Hope IPB Team consider that feature for upcoming IPB 5 

    Thanks

  4. Hi IPB Team, Good Evening ^_^
    I have been testing IPB for next community project, so far it works great

    I have few questions, I hope you guys would help me in that so i could better understand IPB

    1. So in project there will be 4 types of different members i.e A, B, C, D so 4 different members groups would work for requirements. Is any way members could choose their own member group by themselves at signup step. I tried to create radio option field for registration form with options value A, B,C,D so user can select himself. But don't know how to automate user registration in particular members group  depend upon his field selection at registration.

    2. As mentioned above there will be four different group, is any way we could have different profile fields for different group too ?? E.g We want to use birthday field only for individuals profiles not for business profiles and  lots of other profile fields only for particular member group.

    3. IPB will be used as main software to access the project maindomain.com But for some secondary features there will be separate wordpress website. Is any way registered ipb members automatically sign into that wordpress website when they visit  WP site ?? Signups will be only available for IPB website not on WP site.

    4. Is any way to show latest reply on topic, upmost rather than end of topic pages.

    Looking Forward For Your Kind Reply
    Thanks

  5. HI GUYS :) 

    @Morgin @BomAle   Here My 2 cents for Apple IOS and PWA :

    It  Disappointing ios is not supporting push notifications yet  . I think in future apple will revise push notification policy again when PWA become mainstream.  Bigger companies adopting the PWA apps day by day.

    PWA_companies_body1.jpg

     

    PWA is not just another Buzz word,  PWA again transferring the power back to Web Developers which was lost during native mobile app era. I think REST API based apps for IPB not right approach, From developers point of views, it will make mobile apps  hard to maintain and compatible with every new version of IPB and updates of hundered of IPB plugins. However PWA just uses Mobile Responsive of Website.

    Forums Founders  spent both Time and money to make his/her community sustainable. sometime new users like the forums but forget url and browser history deleted,at that time website looses one member ? this same things happened with me many times and may be other members share the same experience. 

    For iOS users or Android users there is more chances, new users of clients Forum website click on App icons  (Installed by PWA ) again than open browser inside the mobile, remember the website URL and hit the enter. No matter whether  PWA support push notifications for particular mobile os or not :)

    Moreover for just one mobile OS. it is not good idea not to implement for other too. PWA fully supported in Window 10 redstone 4. We can't ignore the billions machine running  window 10. Window 10 PWA app would be huge opportunity  to keep the website users engage with website. Just imagine clients Forums apps are installed on users PC.  Even They don't open browser and enter forum URL,  with single push notification you can make users again engage to your website ? More and more adopting the window 10

    We aren't ignoring mobile though, don't worry ? 

    Thanks IPB team showing positive response toward IPB mobile apps, Hope You Guys will make it possible very soon :) You guys just make mobile apps i will buy without see the price Tag and i think other members also do the same :)

     

    Thanks

  6. @Aiwa Majority of Community members are demanding the hybrid solution like PWA not native ones which may IPB team tried but Failed (i don't know IPB team mobile app history) 

    PWA solution require just javascript skills not native one like  java and swift which most of web developers already have :)

    I hope one day one of IPB developer or IPB TEAM hear all of voices and do something for us to compete against Telegram groups, discord server, Facebook Groups, Whatsapp Group 

    and make our communities users more engage to our sities 

    thanks :)

    If it's so easy... Why haven't you done it? The possibilities, and money to be earned, are limitless! 

    because i am not programmer and IPB expert i am just posting for hope IPB TEAM listen and develop for all community members "THE possibilities, and money to be earned, are limitless! " for IPB Team not for YOU ( @Aiwa) and ME. !!!!

    If you really "code for Fun" then why not develop some mobile app for IPB and show IPB community how much fun u really have ?

     

    Thanks

  8. Hi @Heosforo Thanks A Lots for theme it is amazing :) . I m in love with theme especially user profile UX :wub: 

    I have one suggestion for next release only if you have enough Time ? 

    Sticky autohide navbar would be nice feature to be part of this theme :) moreover  it will take very less time to implemenet with headroom js    

    http://wicky.nillia.ms/headroom.js/

    Now no IPB theme has this feature. i will improve the user experience a lots. Now user have to scroll to top to view top bar navigation again. it is very frustrating:sad:

    Again thanks a lots for this amazing theme God Bless U :)

    I started developing an iOS app a month ago. But I'm too busy and haven't finished yet.

    Hi @Firdavs Khaydarov Thanks for reply. I know you spent lots of time on native app solutions and it is quite frustrating when new tech things come out everyday and developer have to learn some of them everyday. Big company can afford to maintain and develop native app solution. But now they are again migrating to web based solutions that more cheap and easy to maintain in long run.

    I guess you are only developer who know both IPB and Mobile app :) it will take you couple of days to implement PWA for IPB. But revenue stream regarding IPB mobile app is huge :) it would be totally worth for you :) IPB mobile APP would be Gold mine for any developer :) Mark my words

    Please Help IPB community :)

    We do not have to wait for the official version, we can create a group to hire a developer to do it for us. Check out this site from the link below, it's a PWA theme store for wordpress. If it is possible to do this in wordpress, it should be possible to use in IPB.

    https://pwathemes.com/

    Another plugin to WP:

    Thanks for sharing this awesome Tools. Agree we don't have ages to wait 1 or 2 years ?
