In the same way - give the url that they can access (you can add more, not just one) with the credentials they are allowed to use (and make sure that the account has the access to view those areas)

Do you still have this plugin and does it still work on the latest IPB? I would like the AdSense Crawler plugin if possible.

In the drop menu in the navigation, whenever i click on an item that is unread, it marks everything read. This has been an annoyance for the longest time. What is even more weird is that the behavior I want in the drop menu navigation actually works already here https://invisioncommunity.com/notifications/ so why not implement that in the drop menu too, where it is likely used more.

I have a feeling it used to be this way, but it changed at some point?

What would also be nice is if Staff moderation notifications are immediately removed (or marked as read/completed) if another staff moderator deals with it in the drop menu.

Much time is wasted approving posts that are already approved by another moderator, because we require post approval on all new accounts. 🙂 

after clicking on the top item ^

Right now in my notifications page ^

No worries - I'll take a closer look over the weekend, but it won't be difficult.

I also spotted that if you quote someone in Fast Reply, the quote is truncated until you manually refresh the page.

Yes 🙂 

I have a suggestion/request:

Let us control the ignored quote setting

Also in the ACP

Because if we are fully expanding quotes, it makes sense to hide ignored members quotes, like posts are already ignored.

Or at least "flip the switch" to have ignored users quotes hidden by default in the Quote Enhancements, and allow them to unhide them (why would they?). 😛

So, for those groups selected in the applications settings - are you saying that on the front-end, those users don't have the following in their account settings?

Hi Nathan! Yes they do. It must have been in the state that it kept disabling when the control wasn't there.

Thanks for all your help man.

Yes it was always hidden and moderators have complained about it.. And then I had the time to report and follow up on it.

Normally I will just hack it in myself, but this seems like more of a bug and an overlooked thing that should be present to assist moderation.

For us, it kept disabling the application (first time, it said it was out of date). But we also have a git pull setup that syncs between servers, so the app needed to be staged and then pushed live. After we uninstalled and reinstalled yesterday it is still active, so I have adjusted the settings today from the default again to fully expand.

However, I still don't really understand what the "Allow these groups to change settings" does, because I can't find anything in Account settings that allows people to adjust the way quotes work for them.

OK...re-install it then, please. If it's not currently installed & enabled, then it definitely won't work hehe (Why is it now not installed? No idea..maybe IPS's scanner did something)

Yeah I need a server dev to do this later because we have some kind of safety that prevents installation of code in the live server 😛

That specific page doesn't have the relevant css/js or html that the hook of the application requires.

Can I have a link to one of these, please?

Hmm it worked briefly in this post https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1422568-what-windows-version-is-this/

appears to have disabled itself

I reset cache via Support page in the ACP and while some topics are showing as expanded, others are not. Example page https://www.neowin.net/forum/topic/1418686-dc-black-adam-october-21st-2022/#comment-598771268

Could you let me know if this was done on the latest release of the platform. While I cannot see the reason (its not show on mobile at present), it is logged in moderation history.

We're on Invision Community v4.7.3

On my community, pressing Enter gives a new line break, while here it gives a new paragraph. Is there some setting I am not finding to achieve this? (I would prefer to shift+enter for a line break).

I would also like to know how I can increase the size of block quotes, right now they are always compacted to a few lines, which I think is far too short, although if this can't be answered here too I will create a new topic for it.

Compacted:

Full (after expanding) reveals one more line of text:

This has been taken a look at by our developers, and confirmed as working as intended. These are 2 different items there. One is the hiding of topics and the other hiding of individual posts.

Can you let me know what magic you use to display the reason on Mobile, or why the action isn't logged in Moderator history please?

Please check this on a default unaltered theme with all 3rd party items disabled. Both of those things happen on the default platform already.

It's the same on the IPB default theme. The only messages that are shown after hiding a topic are replies to topics.

Hope these help

Hide topic (no replies)

Hide reply (reason shown)

Hide topic with replies (only the previously hidden reply reason is shown inline).

Initially I thought that this was a bug when hiding, unhiding and hiding again, but it appears that the staff note for hiding a topic are not shown on the first post like how edit notes are.

The white text is what could be displayed to moderators.

Right now the only option to find why a topic was hidden is hovering over the eye icon

I forgot to add that these actions are also not added to the moderation logs, so that would be missing too.

I have been having trouble with loads of bot signups, seemingly through a script method (despite having captcha enabled) so I am adding some Q&A challenges.

Do I have to add No and no as answers or is it not case sensitive?

Thanks.

Yeah, it’s just text, but text can be styled. So that’s probably what is happening. Impossible to tell from a screenshot though. 

You are right, so I added it in again and viewed it in the default IPB style, so you and everyone else should be able to reproduce it. You can even see in the dev console that the emoji is being rendered properly.

That is something that would be a theme discussion. There is no support for anything other than text within forum names. I will move your ticket over to our community support area where you may be able to get some assistance.

Huh? It has nothing to do with any themes, they are emojis added from the right click context menu, they are not icons that were uploaded into a theme.

Emojis are supported just like any other typed text nowadays.

I added emoji for fun to the staff forums some time ago, but since we upgraded to 4.6.8 the emojis no longer look right. 

The Thread Cemetery (our replacement for the old IPB trashbin) icon actually looks okay, the only difference is that it is greyscale I think?

They look fine in the ACP.

Whenever I flag a spammer certain actions are carried out to ban the account and IP and also soft delete their posts, but one thing that I think should be taken into consideration is freeing up display name choices of spammers. In many cases the names are now thought out well to try and bypass the antispam checks, meaning it is forever lost to genuine members registering later.

Simply: On flag as spammer, also randomize the member name to guest[number] similar to what the GDPR task does.

I currently am using 4.6.5.1.

Invision Community v4.6.5.1

In our news cms that also uses a version of CKeditor, media is embedded in such a way that if the tweet is deleted, all that is left behind is like a quote, it also displays the quote if people are blocking the Twitter javascript from firing but it seems liike in forum posts if the Tweet is deleted, then you are left with a massive blank space. I think this is a bug, as I also confirmed this behavior in IPB Default theme.

The tweet https://twitter.com/AP/status/1431370344342904839 (which is funny because now it defaults to an URL because the tweet can't be found)

Nobody? 😢

Are these the IDs of the staff forums?

Yeah I need a switch to display something only for members only forums, but excluding staff forums.

{{if !$forum->canView( new \IPS\Member ) AND !\in_array( $forum->_id, array( 1, 2, 3 ) )}}THIS IS MEMBERS ONLY{{endif}}

did not work 😞 

{{if !$forum->canView( new \IPS\Member ) AND !\in_array( $forum->_id, array( 81, 82, 105, 202, 231, 232 ) )}}🔒{{endif}}

This did not apply to the forums, it showed on each staff forum instead, which have totally different forum id (I am using a padlock to test output).
