    Any clue how to have IPS this site style dropdown in vertical columns than horizontal bar?

    Add a drop-down menu item in the Menu Manager and place the items you'd like in the drop down menu in there instead of having them indented underneath a parent item.

    You have lots of questions! It may be a good idea to brew a fresh cup of coffee and review the Help Guides:

    Here's the entry on setting up your menu:

     

  2. Cloudflare Polish is activated for your site, and your logo is being served from Cloudflare's cache. Your image is being converted into a webp file for those browsers that support webp, and the original format you used was a JPEG image. JPEG is really only good for things like photographs and is rarely an appropriate format for something like a logo. You'd want to use a transparent PNG file or similar until something svg or webp is supported natively by IPS.

    You have some options. You can turn off the Polish feature entirely on Cloudflare or use a page rule to make an exception for your logo. You will need to clear the cache for your image from Cloudflare though to see any changes. Documentation: https://support.cloudflare.com/hc/en-us/articles/360000607372-Using-Cloudflare-Polish-to-compress-images

    See the headers associated with your logo image, as served from carnity.com:

    cf-bgj: imgq:100,h2pri
    cf-cache-status: HIT
    cf-polished: origFmt=jpeg, origSize=13060
    content-disposition: inline; filename="1802184490_Carnitylogoapr2021.webp"
    content-length: 9220
    content-type: image/webp
  3. Well, the logo on your site is 280x80. What are the dimensions of the image you uploaded?

    Are you using imagemagick or gd? What are your settings for jpg quality?

    Perhaps try uploading in png format.

    Most platforms stopped offering a "dislike" option because it causes unnecessary conflict. I can attest to this personally on my own community. A few members were using it non-stop to essentially start fights - especially if their posting was restricted (they can still use reactions as a form of communication). We removed the option to "dislike" replies and it created a friendlier environment.

    The +1 button was a great idea but please return or improve the number of reactions here at the IPS Community forum. It's feels to me IMHO almost like we're being stifled by some dark, manipulative branding and marketing PR department or something. Reactions allowing the ability to show you you're saddened, disagree or are confused about something and help provide a balance of opinion, freedom of expression and thought.

    Devil's advocate here: Do they though? Are you contributing anything of value in a conversation medium when you decide to indicate "confused!" or "sad!"? Are they vehicles for abuse or harassment?

    Contextual responses are important, and "I agree with everything you said" is a shortcut that works and is largely free of malicious intent (it's hard to "I agree with you" in a way that is offensive to the person authoring the remark), however the ability to react negatively to content without stating why in a medium that encourages exchange is at odds with the platform in some use cases.

    I think it's great that IPS has the easy, built in ability to define reactions for each and every install and that administrators are able to sort out what works best for their individual communities. I also think that for some communities, like this meta one, it's important that the balance of opinions, the dissenting expressions and thoughts, and that the less than positive reactions to content be fleshed out with words and quotations over a wordless reaction. That 4 people were confused about a post doesn't help the author of that post (or the people working on this platform) understand what was confusing, nor provide context to clarify.

    By removing shortcuts that add little value (in this case, negative reactions), you need to express those things verbosely, and for many communities (and for this community), I think that's a better thing than the alternative.

    If you disagree with me, you're encouraged to reply how and why and we move the conversation forward.

  6. I believe that in order to do this, you need to configure your subscription packages as regular products in Commerce. You can then require that the upgrade product be associated to the the "Gold" product.

    You could also use the discount option on the premium subscription so that if you have a gold membership and you're in the gold usergroup (assuming you have it setup that way), you get the premium package at a discounted price.

    Take a look at the upgrade/downgrade settings as well.

    I found it, thanks. 🙂 

    Just logged into the client area and saw the initial response I got was that this would be a feature request and not a bug. Do you need me to create a thread in the feature request forum making a request that this behavior be modified?

    There may be some confusion in the support response. Post Before Registering is completely invisible to us out of the box until the person goes through with registering. That we'd be prompted to look at content submitted that is otherwise invisible and decide whether or not to approve it before they complete the registration seems like a flaw to me. If they don't complete the registration, it will delete itself. I'd offer that the profanity/link filter should only be triggered when the registration is complete and the post is about to be published.
