  1. Unfortunately I'm not sure how I can add widgets below the ads. The ads are inserted via javascript by the ad publisher. Right now the ads appear below the widgets. Maybe that's something I should ask them to change?
  2. That's a good idea. We had a topic about the new site, new features etc... but maybe I need to make a more official support topic with an alert at the top of the site for everyone to see clearly. Great idea. Yes I believe they're correct, basically all members have read/write access to all forum, fairly simple. Ok, if it's temporary, and only a matter of time before it recovers, I don't mind being patient. It's just the fear that these symptoms may be a definitive consequence of using a different software that is stressful. Core Web vitals seem to be improving over time, Coverage started showing 800 errors per day - mostly 5xx server errors - since the migration (vs about 15 per day before). That's odd. I'm sending you screenshots. Thanks a lot for offering to help!
  3. I migrated my forum from phpBB to Invision Community 20 days ago. My forum is my full-time job. The income from Ads is how I make a living. I have 130k topics, 800k topics, 400k monthly pageviews. While I absolutely love the Invision software, I am very upset that since the migration, my ad earnings are down by 30%. I am looking for help to pinpoint the issue or issues at play. Here are some symptoms I've noticed since the migration: Google search impressions (and clicks) are down. Number of page views is down. Ad RPM and RPS are slightly down. User engagement is down (less new topics/day, less new replies/day). The pages are slower to load. That is the exact opposite of what I was expecting when spending time and money resources on migrating my community to Invision. I suppose that #2 may be due to the use of AJAX when users post. Where in phpBB, a user would reload the page, now in Invision the user does it all from the same page. My guess was that in exchange for the diminished page views, the RPM would go up (the user now stays longer on that same page). I don't understand #1, #3 and #4 at all. They're a mystery to me. I would have thought the snazzy software and gamification would entice users to post more. #5 could be due to some conflict between the Invision javascript and the javascript from the ads? I noticed that with the ads turned on the text editor takes forever to open while the ads load. The ads are loading much slower than they were in phpBB. I need to figure this out and get my earnings at least back up to where they were before the switch. If any of you have migrated to Invision from another forum software I'd love to hear your experience and advice.
  4. Thank you @opentype! That gets me pretty close, however the box is still not lined up on the left with the "Home" breadcrumb at the top like the boxes on a forum page. Wait! It's not lined up if I use the page builder, it lines up fine if I create a HTML page! So at least there's a way.
  5. I understand. But perhaps it could be a special kind of WYSIWIG block that has the same style as a default article or forum topic container?
  6. I am trying to understand how to create a simple page in Pages that would look like the content box of one of the default articles layout (white box with slightly rounded corners, text of default size), but without the header (title and author) and without the pagination or the comments at the bottom). So really, just one white content box with slightly rounded corners so that the page looks the same as the articles. I've created a page, set to "Page Builder", then in Page Builder I drag a WYSIWYG editor and type text, however I get no padding, no white background and the text is tiny (13px when my articles are 17px). So I tried adding: <article class="ipsContained ipsSpacer_top ipsBox ipsResponsive_pull"> <div class="ipsClearfix ipsPadding"> Before my text and that creates the white box. But the margin at the top is wrong, and I have to take care of the font size... before I go any further, is there an easier way to go about it?
  7. I would LOVE if there was a simple LMS added to my Invision Community. In its simplest form, it could be a table of content in the left sidebar, and some kind of "next" button at the bottom right, just like your own user guide already has - for example: That coupled with some kind of progress bar, and a way for the reader to tell where they're currently at in the table of content in the left sidebar (which ideally should be sticky or scrolled independently of the main content) would be awesome. After that, the next step is quizzes/tests, gamification... etc. But that can wait.
  8. I disabled the RSS under Community > Forum > Settings but they still appear inside the Stream Options menu at the top right of the activity streams?
  9. Great! That's even better. Thanks a lot Daniel.
  10. I've written an article in Pages, in the default "Articles" Page, however I can't seem to write any HTML in the WYSWYG so how can I use header tags such as h2 for my article titles? I know I can create HTML pages but I want to use the Articles page with the WYSWYG editor because it has the layout I want (with the author card at the top, comments at the bottom...)
  11. Ok I suppose that answers the question! There's no text in the original post of the thread (only an image) so the "Text" field is left empty in the structured markup. Thanks Marc, I'll edit the thread to add text.
  12. Here's the page: https://www.logicprohelp.com/forum/topic/110810-i-love-you-but-why-do-you-behave-this-way/
  13. Any idea why Google is giving me the following warning regarding Q&A structured data? Search Console has identified that your site is affected by 1 Q&A structured data issue(s): Top Warnings Warnings are suggestions for improvement. Some warnings can affect your appearance on Search; some might be reclassified as errors in the future. The following warnings were found on your site: Missing field "text" (in "mainEntity")
  14. I recently converted my phpBB forum to an Invision Community forum. In the Admin panel under Get Support I see a Repeated Log Entries warning, and when I click it I see this: Reoccurring system log entries may be indicative of a problem that should be addressed. A summary of the top reoccurring recent log entries are shown below. Review the system log for further details.

  15. Yes! That was the issue! I allowed him to moderate all forums and now he sees it. Thank you again.
  16. Ok I'll double-check that and ask him to test, then I'll report back. Thank you!
  17. No that topic is not marked as solved. I can see "Mark as Solution" on every post inside the topic but my mod can't.
  18. Thanks! Yes it does, and I can see (and use) it. We're looking at the exact same post in the same thread in the same forum, too.
  19. I have a moderator who've allowed to set best answer/solved for questions and he stil doesn't see the "Mark as Solution" link at the bottom of a post like I (the admin) can. We're both looking at the same exact post in the same forum. Here are his permissions:
  20. Thank you @opentype! @Marc Stridgen Yes, however I believe that's likely to be less work than it is currently, to move back nearly every single post to the main forum when they're posted in the wrong places. I'll experiment with it.
  21. I have one main forum and several less important forums. Users should almost always post in the main forum. When someone clicks Start New Topic on the home page, a forum selector opens. Is it possible to bypass that forum selector and instead automatically create the topic in the main forum? Thanks!
