That would be correct. They can view the course, but not the lessons themselves

We will show more on pages once we are in a position to do this. But of course we believe the design has been improved on. After all, why would we develop it otherwise 🙂 
Im not sure what you mean here. We have never supported 3rd party items. If you mean can 3rd party developers develop for the platform still, then yes. In fact we have had blogs out showing how to do so.
And you will 🙂

I'm enjoying the story so far, but can we get some more chapters to complete the book? 😄 I enjoyed the once-a-week cadence of reveals a few months ago, and I'm hoping we're near the end of our mid-season break and can return to that? 🙏

Thank you @Randy Calvert. Yes, and they are doing a great job. My suggestion was to do a better planning based on their abilities and vision and better communicate those plans and roadmaps. Right now I am paying a solution (pages app) that has terrible presentation solution so I like many were relying on third party plugins to overcome that. My understanding is there is not going to be any plugins in v5, so where does that leave me and others who use the pages app? That is where a road map and communication would help to plan for the future.

Will the database record view template be updated to something usable? Perhaps, something like what you use here?

Any chance someone can address this?

I've been using IPB since 2006 with the MSSQL driver.   I was always attracted to the flexibility of the platform with minimal programming.
Recently tech support has become more difficult.  It's harder to find code examples and removing the marketplace killed a creativity source for me.   I had a stroke a few years ago, so my development skills are retarded, but still I believe this is one of the poorer organized forms in regards to technical documentation.
A wiki, kept up to date by your community, would really help in development IMHO.
Good luck all!

There's unfortunately no endpoint to manage the pages media files via REST.
When a content is set via REST it depends on the authentication method  if \IPS\Text\Parser::parseStatic() is called or not, so it won't be replaced automatically. ( API KEY will set the content direct, while oAuth will call parseStatic with the users permissions)
You will probably need to format the content on your own before you're submitting it to the API endpoint.

This probably was a bug in my code. I don't know what changed, but now it works and stopped dropping the first character.

Marc, thank you so much. This is a great news. I will test it and update the topic.

hmm, sorry to be negative here but to me this looks like an attempt to build a platform that could in the future monetize on your clients content who already pay to use service/software. If it works I think soon ads or sponsored/promoted content/feeds will follow. I don't think I will be using it.
And I certainly wish you used your resources to develop essential and needed aspects like enhancing the api so I can upload/use media galley pictures through pages api ,set meta keywords/description via api in pages api, certainly the presentation of the pages content template needs an upgrade an so on. Instead, we got the hive.

Charles, that comes from caring about invision and paying a lot of money for it too. I would focus on the api, presentation of the pages app, integrate to essential services like semrush, ahrefs, rankmath, create a social media sharing/marking/scheduling platforms etc.

Thank you @Adlago. I use auto-ads, so the ads are dynamically placed by adsense. I don't know how to apply individual divs with auto-ads. Is it possible.
@Jim M, @Matt thank you for your feedback. I am glad the next major release will improve on this. To be fair, I think invision is a great investment and excellent software and service. Especially, after migrating to the cloud hosted environment I am very happy with the invision. 

The March release live topic said the pages app was getting a bigger update later this year. I would not expect it in this month or even the next two personally. If they are just starting to talk about it, I would expect there would be a while to go before it’s released. 

Thank you very much @The Old Man

The endpoint might not be correct, I used /api/core/hello for example but we were on 4.3 back then.
// Test Connection to IPS REST API and display response function invTest_ipsHelloTest_shortcode (){ // Authorize the requests by sending the API key as the key parameter in the request. Locked down to server by IP in IPS. $communityUrl = 'https://example.com/mycommunity'; $apiKey = 'hfquhgfhwuhguwhruggqwrhghwrhg blah'; $endpoint = '/api/core/hello'; // NB To avoid "PHP Warning: parse_url() expects parameter 1 to be string, array given", the request needs to be a concatenated string not an array! GS $request = $communityUrl . $endpoint . "?key=". $apiKey; // GET the remote request headers and body $response = wp_remote_get( $request ); // GET just the remote response body $response_body = wp_remote_retrieve_body( $response ); // GET the remote response code and message $http_code = wp_remote_retrieve_response_code( $response ); $http_message = wp_remote_retrieve_response_message( $response ); // Check for error if ( is_wp_error( $response ) ) { return sprintf( 'Oops. The URL %1s could not be retrieved.', $request ); } // return something if not an error if ( ! is_wp_error( $response ) ) { // Uncomment to debug and show headers and body return $results = '<pre>' . print_r($response, true) . '</pre>'; // Uncomment to debug and show just the body! // return $results = '<pre>' . print_r($response_body, true) . '</pre>'; // Uncomment to debug and show the status code e.g. int(200) // return $http_code.'&nbsp;'.$http_message; } }  

If you watch the March release live topic, it was mentioned that Pages is going to be getting an overhaul and that one of the things being looked at is more templates and easier drag/drop widgets. 

Yes, I think Randy is correct as I watched that bit too and if i'm not mistaken, the IPS Blog is written on the Pages application rather than the Blog piece so hopefully all of those features will be available in this drag and drop option.
Until then I would just back up how @opentype's strong plugin templates work really well with Articles and other Pages you create.

Is there an easy way to move large content from blogs to database and setup redirects?
Thank you.

Thank you. Looks great, but I am interested in achieving this using the native system, no addons, plugins etc.

FYI, the converter I may have, beyond copying the entry into a record, it also take care of comments, reactions and followers.

I’m not 100% sure of this but I think I have a converter for this task.
I’ll reply back tomorrow in the morning after confirming.
