Ditto.

Do you see the same behavior with the General tab in Settings that I described in my previous post?

Yes but I think that's how it's always been.

@Clover13 latest one 

I'm using instant upon verification to add a reply to an existing topic, but it isn't working on two different sites.  @iacas and @Edjazoli, what version of IPS are you using?

Huge thanks to @Daniel F for risking his iPhone by installing the latest iOS beta to get this feature working for us!

The longest awaited iPhone feature is almost here, native iOS notifications, and we couldn't wait to ensure it is enabled for your Invision Community.
Invision Community 4.7.9 is iPhone push notification ready for when Apple release their latest iOS update later this month. This means you'll finally get notifications on your phone, even when you do not have your browser open, to alert you of new content on followed items and more. A feature Android owners have enjoyed for a while.

With notifications, you can have an authentic native app experience with built-in Invision Community features such as the manifest editor.
The manifest editor allows you to edit your theme icons, colours and URL for when your members add your community to their phone's homepage. This manifest file helps mobile devices understand how to display your community site when launched from the home screen.

Your members can add your community to their home screen with the share button. Once it has been added, it looks and feels like a native app downloaded from the App Store.
With Apple finally allowing native notifications and Invision Community's mobile-ready UI coupled with the manifest editor, you can have a real app experience without needing a mobile app.

We intend to bring more functionality and ease of use to mobile devices over the coming releases.
We hope you're looking forward to iOS native push notifications as much as we are!
The features discussed in this announcement are available in both Invision Community and Invision Community Classic.

The above would be relevant for logging in - but the user isn't talking about that, they are talking about discouraging the use of the email address as the display name.
Go to the following area in the ACP (Customization -> (Localization) Languages) and click 'Add phrase' and create an entry with username_desc as the key, and put your content into the default value field.
Result:

Where to go in the ACP:

 

 

We want to encourage new users to use their real name as their user name when registering, and to discourage or prohibit them from using an email address or just a first name.  Where can we insert text to do so?  Can we place restrictions on allowable user names?

I tried to manually run it as well after another member joined and it didn't add anything to the existing topic that was configured.  No errors in the task logs either, however it does show it ran.

Running 4.7.8, it seems the welcomeAlerts tasks is not running or recognizing when to run.  Had a member sign up and validate 45 minutes before this screenshot was taken.

Thank you for emailing and for mentioning this here. I apologize for the confusion!
You are correct. The credit is based on what you pay/have paid so we will check your account and reply to your email. 
I do help with the conversion process so should you choose to move forward, we will speak again. 🙂 

@Edjazoli We do not offer discounts on the plans themselves but do offer the conversion from self hosted to Cloud for free plus an account credit after the conversion is complete to give up your self hosted license. If we did not tell you this or perhaps you have questions or specific requests, please do email again.
What @Randy Calvert said 😉

I understand and I now see your email where that answer was not provided. I'll follow up with you there. 🙂 

The monthly price is the monthly price, but they do have a one-time credit that is available if after you move to the cloud that you give up your self-hosted license. 

I was just asking a question. 

Hello, will the live topics feature be available for users with a self hosted license, too?

Finally, for those that like to see what we are up to line by line, here is the changelog for the week.
Changelog
 

Is it a bazaar, a market that you want to negotiate prices? - sorry but it is a subjective point of view. 

Then why this comments…? No interested, simply ignore cloud option and stop all the comments- sorry but it is a subjective point of view. 
Is that mean you can do something with prices, I have contacted several times for a best price you can do for Creator and generous credit as was discussed in live topic and still waiting for answer. As well the only answer regard prices was “We only offer the prices listed on our site at this time.”

Unfortunatly, I'd like to do it but it's really too expensive... 

Hello, @balazsp, you can use something like this:
Create a new Pages block with html and add this:
<a class='ipsButton ipsButton_medium ipsButton_important ipsButton_fullWidth' href='#' data-ipsDialog data-ipsDialog-url='/index.php?app=avatarhub&module=hub&controller=front&do=styleAvatar'>Select Avatar</a> Should work

I see you bumped this, I'm assuming to get attention to it. Please note, we would not instantly add items that are posted in the feedback area, and while they may not be responded to, they are indeed all read. 🙂 

Just a quick note: you have the option to use multi language titles in stuff added via the ACP and in Nodes (categories, forums, type of reports, etc.). The announcement itself is a content, like a topic, blog entry… and it is added on public side. IPS doesn’t use the language stuff to members in public side. I remember have read somewhere that there is a security concern. Not sure.

These two options should not be available if the content was added by a guest and user with limited privileges should not be allowed to flag a user as a spammer.
He only has the "Can view all hidden content?" permission.
