    DamonT got a reaction from Felipe13 in Replacing the badge with another (higher) one   
    Currently it looks bad if we want to award ranks for e.g. a round number of posts, likes or years since registrating on the forum. If a user gets a badge for getting 100 likes then there should be an option to automatically hide it when the user gets another badge of the same type, e.g. for 1000 likes. It makes no sense to display these "smaller" badges in the profile.

    The stats for ranks (only them) are not working for me. I have ranks and badges running. The latest version of the forum. PHP 7.4. What can I do about this?

    @Marc Stridgen I disabled the plugins shown at the bottom of the previous screenshot. Error looks similar (just without info about plugins):

    Taking a look at our release notes and checking on my instance, it looks like there have been issues resolved on this area in the next upcoming release, which is currently in beta

    DamonT reacted to Martin A. in Your Invision Community license expires emails go crazy?   
    This looks like it's the funny issue I encountered with DateTime::diff() when timezones aren't bypassed in DateTime::ts().
    When the diff is 1 day 30 minutes for instance, it would return -1 year, +11 months, +29 days, +23 hours, +30 minutes.
    This issue caused the online indicator on our site to stop function, as the diff wasn't "just 15 minutes". $diff->y would for instance not be TRUE ,as it's -1.
    Fixed that issue by changing this in Member::isOnline()
    $diff = \IPS\DateTime::ts( $this->last_activity, TRUE )->diff( \IPS\DateTime::create() ); Wonder is this is just an issue for those in a + timezone (only speculations)

    No. Rebuilding will not cause sending of notifications for those issues during rebuild. Only for those after the rebuild, where requested to be received by the member in their settings

    There are other use cases where this feature can be useful. Not just for resetting "old" passwords. Sometimes it can be useful to reset a user's password if it has been leaked and the user used the same password on your site as he did on the source of the leak.

    Forcing passwords to expire is generally considered a bad security practise now. Enforcing it may actually reduce the security of your member accounts instead of increasing it.
    Here are two useful resources, but you can find many more online.

    "Verifiers SHOULD NOT require memorized secrets to be changed arbitrarily (e.g., periodically). However, verifiers SHALL force a change if there is evidence of compromise of the authenticator."

    DamonT got a reaction from 13. in Forcing a password change without sending an email   
    The current option to force password changes sends an email to all forced users. This can generate anxiety because people think something bad has happened. Is it possible to force a change of passwords in such a way that the user only gets a message after entering the site and trying to log in? He should get info that his password has expired and he must now reset it for his security. Such a procedure does not arouse suspicion.

    DamonT reacted to 13. in Are all notifications marked as read when bell is clicked?   
    Yes, the current behavior of the notification reading status is extremely inconvenient.
    This problem has plagued users for many years. There are a lot of topics about this in the feedback section, and it has been discussed for years.

    Yeah. I added award to the quiz creator because you can give points to them when the player scores less than 35%, for example, so the quiz creator beat the player.
    New version is pending approval. Let’s see how it goes. I can improve it in a future version. 👍

    No problem Adriano, thanks for letting us know. I'll keep my fingers crossed for the near future.
     
    Okay, thank you for checking. I'll do a few more tests with some other people and see what it does. I'll report back if I see anything strange.

    Hi Adriano, just a couple queries if thats okay?
    Any chance of adding actions into this app in order for achievements to pick it up? Most common ones would definitely be:
    Taking a Quiz Taking multiple Quizzes Scoring 100% on a Quiz Also, just not sure my view is working regarding table and list view. I changed the option to grid view but when i refreshed my page it did not change the front end list so wondered if i'm missing an option or if its a bug?
    Many thanks

    It goes without saying that we all want every one of  the marketplace apps to be updated within days of a new release.  We need to better manage our expectations as Adriano has a very large collection of marketplace and custom apps that he supports. They will all be updated when they get updated and not a moment sooner.  
    Coding and testing works best when you are in a good frame of mind.  Being constantly pestered for updates is unlikely to put Adriano in such a state.  Be of good cheer@Adriano Fariaand the other marketplace developers, we appreciate all of you...

    I would like to ask if its possible to validate payments from IPS to Woocommerce , since most of API payment gateways are already supported in Woocommerce .
     
    For example someone buys something, they are being redirected from IPS-> woocomerce -> woocomerce api -> woocomerce -> IPS (payment done)

    Built-in draft save/recall would be welcome!

    The automated one is convenient for inadvertently leaving the page and coming back, but since it can only store one post per thread, it doesn't accommodate complex conversations or detailed posts built over time. Being able to slap a button and dump the draft into a retrievable list would be an excellent UI enhancement.

    DamonT reacted to Abies in User profiles - hide unnecessary filtering   
    Hello there!
    The main purpose of user profiles is to make discovering user's content easier. I've found a way to improve the process a bit.
    1. Content discovery
    Let's take a look on my profile and especially on the filtering options:

    Problem: It's quite a long list that grows with every new app or a content type. I find it confusing as during my time here I've posted only a topic and some posts.
    I don't think I'm able to post anything in the documentation, release notes, providers, guides, IPS Blog etc. But I'm still able to filter my results by those options [basically to get no results note].
    Solution: The idea is to hide all the empty-result-filters. Thanks to this we exactly know what type of content certain user posted, and save our time on scanning the long list.

    2. Reputation view
    I wanted to check my reputaion activity and this happened:

    Problem: The page shows no results. Quite confusing as the sidebar clearly shows that I do have reputation activity. This is because by default the resulsts are filtered by Status updates in which I have no activity. And the list of possible filters is also very long (as stated above).
    Solution:  As we have All activity filter in user's content page by default, we should also have All reputation activity filter in user's reputation page. And limiting the possible filters would (as above) make the experience more intuitive and clear.
    In my case it would look like this as I have reputation activity in blog entries, blog comments and posts:

    Thanks for reading! 🙂

    Just a little suggestion about 'Who's Online'
    For example:
    Who is Online: 3 Members, 0 Anonymous, 20 Guests
     
    If there is no anonymous user, system must hide it automatically like:
    Who is Online: 3 Members, 20 Guests
     
    or if there are only  guests on forum:
     Who is Online: 20 Guests
     
    It'll be a little better, right?
