    Schaken got a reaction from Marc Stridgen in RSS Feed Import to Forum Topic not attaching images   
    I personally use https://rss.app/ and it does a very good job. you can have a bunch of different RSS setups for free and it has a RSS builder. I have used it for about 4 years now.

    To add to that I made an app that web crawls the RSS site and grabs the content more to my needs and rebuilds my forum post that way I want AFTER the RSS has been initially grabbed.

    RSS is REALLY cool, but using API's and Webhooks are way better when you are able to use them.

    @Daniel F you are awesome. As you know, I try real hard to make things look pretty, it tends to sell better.
    When im getting API's for forum categories, I would love to be able to grab the category image, and/or Icon.
    Same with gallery. People usually dont read as often as they just look for pictures, and the Invision system has functionality for this, but not in the API.

    For example, I would like to grab images from here. I can simply make them in my app, but if this ever changes on my site, I will have to update my app.

     
    And of course, as our earlier conversation, maybe a different way to upload images to the gallery. most other API I can upload as objects, which I can do this fine. but in the gallery for some reason I am really struggling to make it an encoded base64 image.

     
    and one that I almost forgot about... I would love for a way to upload images in topics. for example how I uploaded those images just now, I would love to do that with the API, granted I could upload to a 3rd party and just enter HTML to make it happen... but then I have to rely on 3rd party services and they delete images pretty fast and anyone reviewing topics will see tons of broken images.

    I think a deal has to be made between the two developers honestly. Im not sure if management gets involved. I know if Adriano got it, this would have tons of options to tie into all his other stuff, it would be simplified and easier to work with and kept up. he tends to go thru everything with a fine-tooth comb and makes everything better. He had a plugin that had an issue once. I simply mentioned it to him, and he fixed it, improved it, and optimized it probably within just a few minutes, lol.
    Actually, @Adriano Faria has made an add-on for me for this, so users could upload screenshots of their experience to a certain tab, to show others. My community loves this and uses it alot. so, he is a little familiar with the structure already.

    This is actually how I use it. it does everyone at once, on mine it takes about 10 minutes to go thru all 150K members though. Does not show to guests.

    Schaken got a reaction from IPCommerceFan in Rest API not accepting Base64 Encoded image   
    PHP is REALLY more useful from what I see. C# is centered more towards desktop apps, video games, handling your computer tasks. If you mainly only care to handle things on the internet browser world, then there isn't much of a reason to learn C#. I make video games and have an online website community, so I know a little bit of PHP (Very little) but im pretty fair with C#.

    The command you sent me is great, but I can only use it on text. but I see you are telling maybe it's how it is turning the image into a string that may be the issue, rather than how I am turning it into a base64 encode. This is something I didn't think about. I will tackle that area; you may very well be correct.
     
     
     
    @Stuart Silvester this is the error I am getting:

     
    The last thing there mentions Dimensions, so I went to my gallery settings and set the maximum to the same dimension of the image I was uploading, that didn't seem to make a difference. So, I'm not sure what the error is telling me, unless it is trying to get the dimensions, but can't because it's getting the image as a fumbled letters and numbers like @IPCommerceFan was suggesting.

    I appreciate you jumping in. You are saying I should try to encode a text field as well and see how it turns out on the other side? Will it decode any text field on its own or is there a certain place I should send an encoded string to for testing?

    Your exact suggestion was why I tried using:
    A = System.Text.RegularExpressions.Regex.Escape(A); As this turns it into a URL friendly version. I will mess around with what you suggested with "Btoa" function, I never used it before but I will see if I can find a proper way to apply it and see if that helps. Again, thank you for your advice. I appreciate it. I just recently took on C# as the first programming language to learn, been at it for maybe 7 months. its alot to take in.

    uhh, I'm not sure what you mean by fitting so many. I select "Groups" and select members, which is the entire community. My community is currently 149288 members. But it does not mess up when sending any notifications at all. the only issue is when I merge an account. I have members that will buy a membership and then make a new account and then complain to me because their new account doesn't have a membership on it. Granted they are idiots, but still I try to just merge their accounts and I get an error and it don't merge, this was the error that I showed you.

    Ill make sure you have admin access and ill PM you the details to gain access. thank you.

    I kept getting wild errors when I would merge user accounts. Took me a long time to track it down, turns out it is this, or maybe this app is not compatible with another app I have.



    When I disable this app, I can merge accounts just fine without an error. otherwise it gives me an error and wont merge them fully.

    Schaken got a reaction from Martin A. in Accessing user data with oAuth   
    I just thought i would update this in case anyone else needs it. I finally got it.
    This is to get OAuth2:
    // This part, you are just sending the user to the Login page. public void LoginTest1() { string MyClientID = "1234"; string MyRandomNumber = "4321";// <-- This is your own made up code, you will use this //again, make it anything you want. it gets sent back to you again to let you know it was a secure connection string MyRedirectURI = "https://MySite.com/URIPage/";// <-- This i made a custom page with an input field and make it //capture the code from the URL. string MyScope = "Files?"; string uri = "https://MySite.com/oauth/authorize?client_id="+MyClientID+"&response_type=code&state="+MyRandomNumber+"&redirect_uri="+MyRediectURI+"&scope="+MyScope+""; // <-- I has to put quotes at the end. Dont know why.. Application.OpenURL (uri); } // once they login, the "Code" will be displayed in the URL of "https://MySite.com/URIPage/" you will see a code, and the random number you made. // you will need to make a way for them to enter this into your app. private IEnumerator GetAccessToken() { Dictionary<string, string> content = new Dictionary<string, string>(); content.Add("grant_type", "authorization_code"); content.Add("code", RequestToken); // <-- I used a variable for this, but your "Code" in the URL goes here. content.Add("redirect_uri", "https://MySite.com/URIPage/"; content.Add("client_id", "123456789"); content.Add("code_verifier", "432151");// <-- This is the random code you made up at the very start UnityWebRequest www = UnityWebRequest.Post("https://MySite.com/oauth/token/", content); yield return www.Send(); if (!www.isNetworkError) { string resultContent = www.downloadHandler.text; Debug.Log("Response: "+resultContent); <-- This will show you your Token you are looking for. :) } else { // This needs to show an error, saying something went wrong. Found i had a disabled scope. } } else { Debug.Log("Failed: "+www.error);// <-- displayes the error, if you have any. :) } }  


    This is to get information:
    public void CallForSomething(uri) { string Bearer = "1234567890";// <- Your Bearer ID var httpRequest = (HttpWebRequest)WebRequest.Create(uri); httpRequest.Headers["Authorization"] = "Bearer "+Bearer; HttpWebResponse httpResponse; try { httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)httpRequest.GetResponse(); } catch (WebException ex) { httpResponse = (HttpWebResponse)ex.Response; } using (var streamReader = new StreamReader(httpResponse.GetResponseStream())) { var result = streamReader.ReadToEnd(); string FullTXT = result.Replace(@"\", string.Empty); Debug.Log(FullTXT); // <-- This is what comes back :) } }

    Hey, just a random person trying to be helpful here. Mine is the same way, its a setting for moderators, something like "Highlight posts" in group settings i believe? if you go to your ACP and search "Highlight" you should find the setting pretty fast. It has been a while since i messed with that otherwise. I hope this helps!
