If you PM me with the site this occurs on, and make sure your ACP/FTP information is up to date in the client area, I can take a look for you.

Admins can't use Editor
As Marc says, in v4 we showed you all the theme resources that the 'master' theme used, however in v5 we use far fewer resources in general, and you now only see anything custom that you've uploaded.

Invision Community 5.0.1 Released
Ah ok, that's just a duplicate query that was in the patch, and also in the full release. You can happily ignore it. 😁 It looks like something is blocking outgoing connections to our update server. You can download the zip and upgrade manually if it persists.

5.0.1
This is the latest version of Invision Community 5.

There are no next page click buttons for the Pages app Default custom templates
Those are older templates and likely need updating. Generally we recommend using the default single column and using the Page Editor to create the columns.

Can't install IPS5 5.0.0
Is there anything in the System Log for this? Do you have any older apps in the filesystem when you go to install?

Problem with Text Box in Footer
Changed Status to Pending I'll add this to my "I'm curious as to what is going on" list. It might be the script tag, or it might be something else. Are your ACP details up to date?

Turn off emoji in IPS5
We're aware of the delay that affects Safari desktop, Chromium browsers seem fine. We are working on this. It looks to be a rendering issue with Safari as the content loads, but it just takes an age to style it.

Cheers, I'll whizz that off to our bug tracker on GitHub. Looks like that is the issue.

Invision Community 5: Week 1 Update
It's been a very eventful week here at Invision Community, with the launch of Invision Community 5 and I wanted to take a minute to give an update on what has happened and what we've learned this week. Fixes and PatchesDespite being a brand-new platform, Invision Community 5 has had a very low number of critical issues, primarily thanks to months of careful testing and preparation before this release. We have made two patches this week that fix the following issues: An issue where some Cloud sites would block .svg and webp images when uploaded. An issue where updating the approval queue during the v4 to v5 upgrade could fail. An issue where the Policy Page would show an error when Send Grid is enabled. An issue where some template hook locations were missing. An issue where PayPal attempts to use a full name even when it's not required. We've been reading all your posts about your experiences upgrading to Invision Community 5, and there is one area where we think we can improve. Pages UpgradesRight now, once the v4 to v5 upgrade has completed, your Page Databases retain their custom templates. However, because the CSS framework has changed, those pages look broken. We plan to rename all v4 Pages templates containers and reset the defaults on all the databases very soon (likely 5.0.2) so your pages do not look broken after the upgrade. You can then choose from one of the new default views or move your customisations back into the default templates. We will also add this information to the Invision Community 4 "Prepare for v5" page in the Admin CP. In the meantime, reverting custom Pages Templates will solve broken views. Next ReleaseWe want to continue releasing regular releases as we fix issues. Invision Community 5.0.1 is expected to be available early next week. Before I go, I just wanted to mention that I've heard some customers looking forward to upgrading this weekend. Just keep in mind that support is limited over the weekend, and we always recommend taking at least a database backup before you run the upgrader. Thanks again for all your help this week!

Same steps as above, the JS is: <script type="text/javascript"> document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function () { let newLi = document.createElement("li"); let newLink = document.createElement("a"); newLink.href = ipsSettings.baseURL + 'markallread/?csrfKey=' + ipsSettings.csrfKey; newLink.innerText = "Mark Site Read"; newLink.setAttribute( 'style', 'padding: .8em'); let newIcon = document.createElement("i"); newIcon.classList.add("fa", "fa-solid", "fa-eye"); newLink.prepend(newIcon); newLi.appendChild(newLink); let ul = document.querySelector('nav.ipsBreadcrumb--bottom a[data-action="defaultStream"]').closest("ul"); if (ul) { ul.appendChild(newLi); } }); </script> I did it first without recording, then removed it but didn't refresh the page before recording, that's all.

Yeah, it's super easy in Invision Community 5. Barely an inconvenience. The javascript I paste in is this: <script type="text/javascript"> document.addEventListener("DOMContentLoaded", function () { let newLi = document.createElement("li"); let newLink = document.createElement("a"); newLink.href = "#"; newLink.innerText = "Back to Top"; newLink.setAttribute( 'style', 'padding: .8em'); let newIcon = document.createElement("i"); newIcon.classList.add("fa", "fa-arrow-up"); newLink.prepend(newIcon); newLink.addEventListener("click", function (event) { event.preventDefault(); window.scrollTo({ top: 0, behavior: "smooth" }); }); newLi.appendChild(newLink); let ul = document.querySelector('nav.ipsBreadcrumb--bottom a[data-action="defaultStream"]').closest("ul"); if (ul) { ul.appendChild(newLi); } }); </script>

Please stop removing features
That is an incredibly bold and somewhat bleak statement to make. I don't think any one person has the agency to speak on behalf of all customers. We do of course care what our customers think. We spend a lot of time talking and listening to our customers. The truth is that you cannot make everyone happy. You just can't. Take this one topic for example. One customer is upset at having username log in taken away after we announced it 3 years ago and others have said it's not a big deal and some see the benefit. The best we can do is do what we think is right for the majority of customers. Most of our customers are inside that red circle, with a few outside of it. Does that mean that we don't care about those outside of it? Of course not but we listen to all customers, and combine it with our strong vision for what a community platform would be, and a strong vision is essential for any product. Not everyone will align with it, but a strong vision allows you to build strong, robust and confident foundations and build a cohesive and logical product that follows the rules of that vision. With a strong vision you can build something special. Even if it means not adding every feature that everyone wants. Without a strong vision, and accepting every idea that is passed before us, you get a much weaker product that has no cohesion or identity. Invision Community 5 has been in some form of testing since June 2024 and we've had hundreds of conversations that have shaped the final product. To say we don't care about customers is pretty wide of the mark in my opinion.
