Before swapping to Invision, my forum used VBulletin.  There was an option on VBulletin where I could receive all new posts via email.  I can't find that with Invision.  It was a lot of email but I felt it was important to stay on top of things.  Is there a way to do it?

I just purchased and installed this but am a bit disappointed. I read through the message here and thought that I would be able to let the members sort it by different profile fields. Most importantly they need to be able to sort it by location of the members due to the focus of my site.  The only sort options I see are Display Name, Reputation, Content, and joined.  Is there a way to add other fields?

Installed the mew update yesterday.  So far, so good.

@Morrigan I've got the same issue.  I'm apparently not as advanced though.  Where do you find that?

Never mind.  Found it.

Does anybody know of or can provide a plugin that will auto delete posts after "x" number of days in particular forums?  I have a couple of forums that I would like to automatically delete the posts after say 60 or 90 days.

I'm having a problem creating a double column page.  I want to columns where I imbed an image.  I went to pagers, created new page, selected double column but it only allows me to add about 3 rows of double column blocks and then goes to single column., These are image columns.   I'm trying to built a single page with about 26 pictures in two columns.  

Does anybody know of a custom plugin that will do this:

Is there a way to make posts in an individual forum automatically expire and delete?  I have one forum, maybe a couple, that I would like to auto delete the posts after X number of days.

Just a public thanks to Martin A for helping me get my map sorted out.  My import from VBulletin caused some of the features to not work exactly as they should.  Martin went about and beyond to get it right.  I've rarely seen such great support for any software.  Thanks much for your help.  My members love the map.

Thanks. I actually like the way that I did it by creating a copy of the theme and turning off that switching option.,  That way people can choose to use the same theme without it and I don't have to worry about moving people to other groups, adding secondary groups, and etc.  It is up to them if they want to select the other theme without it.  I'm good.  No worries.

Thanks for the response.  I do really like the Theme.  Disabling that feature per usergroup is not a solution for me.  My supporting members are the main ones I'm concerned with.  Some are OK with out and some don't like it at all.  Especially when they login on their phones.  It's OK though.  Creating a copy of the theme and offering then a choice without it works fine.  Looking forward to seeing the update though.

OK, I didn't find a way to remove it but did find a workaround.,  I just copied the theme and created a new one.  I then removed the option to change the colors in the new one and added it as a new theme.  So any member who doesn't like the moon icon can simply choose the other theme.  

Quick question and I think I already know.  Is there a way for the individual member too hide the moon?  Most love the features but I have a couple of people complaining that it distracts them.  Especially those who use their phones.

OK...when I click on the moon and switch to "light" mode, then click on the little circular arrow at the bottom, that makes it brighter?  I assume that is the function of that curled arrow.  I like the brighter look but when I do that, the icons in in the tool bar disappear in the post editor.  

EDIT:  Figured out where to change the color so it would show up.

Figured it out.  My bad.  Thanks.

I'm completely confused.  Don't know what is going on.  The picture in the slider did changer on the phone.  On my computer, I've cleared the browser cache in Safari, tried Firefox, and even swapped to Windows 10 and tried Bing and it still shows the default pine trees.  I don't understand it at all.  

Tried that and the image didn't change on my computer.  Checked on my phone and it did change.   

Now I can't get the theme to show up at all for some reason.  I choose it from themes at the bottom of my forum but it stays on the default theme.

Just insalled this theme.  How do I change the image in the slider?  It shows trees now.  I went to sliders and changed to an image there but it doesn't change.

You will have to remove the new version, get a copy of the old version, and manually install it.

Tested with php 7.3.1 and 7.4  - works not (with changes).

Downgrade to ver 2.5.6 works fine (posted immediately)

Thanks much.  Downgrading to 2.5.6 worked for me also.

Yes. contact me in a PM if you want me to help you construct a query that'll automatically populate that field for you.

I've sent you a couple of PMs but haven't heard back.

Also, the last couple of days, I get the following error in the morning.

OK, there are several color schemes to pick from.  Some of my member like dark themes and some like light.  If you install this theme, can the user pick which they want to use or does it have to be installed and configured multiple times for them to have a choice?

Thanks.  My site is a recent changeover from VBulletin and they used two fields for that info.  

So, the answer is to create a new field and have all my members update their profiles?  A location field that asks for city, state?  

How do I downgrade to that version?  

I've got quiet a lot of markers that are incorrectly placed.  Don't understand why.  Here is one example.  At the top, it shows where the marker is actually place.  His profile fields are listed in the bottom part.
