    EvanDC got a reaction from David N. in Tags - is it possible to see a master list of tags and edit them?   
    Hi there, I'm looking in the ACP for a master list of tags which have been entered so far. I'm using an open tag setup. I know I've got a couple of tags with typos already. Is there a place where I can go and edit those out? Thanks.

    Yes, and there has been for quite a while.
    In Chrome, tap the 3-dot menu in the top-right of the browser and then 'Install' to add the PWA to the home screen.

    I've fixed it. I had the oEmbed plugin enabled which it seems was conflicting with the videos oembed process. At least I'm guessing that's what it was as disabling the plugin has fixed the problem.

    Yes, it is possible with the database relationship field. It creates a comma-separated list of the other articles in a specific database.

    EvanDC reacted to opentype in Canva embed   
    Yeah, that should be no problem at all. Here is an example:
    https://www.opentype.space/supergrid/from-the-observatories/our-milky-way-r6/
    I just added an URL field to the database, where you would then add this URL to a specific record.
    https://www.canva.com/design/DAFZWegAizg/view
    In the settings for the URL field, I turn off “Show in listing template” and under “Display View Format” I choose “Custom” and add this code:
    {{if $formValue}} <div style="position: relative; width: 100%; height: 0; padding-top: 141.4286%; padding-bottom: 0; box-shadow: 0 2px 8px 0 rgba(63,69,81,0.16); margin-top: 1.6em; margin-bottom: 0.9em; overflow: hidden; border-radius: 8px; will-change: transform;"> <iframe loading="lazy" style="position: absolute; width: 100%; height: 100%; top: 0; left: 0; border: none; padding: 0;margin: 0;" src="{$formValue}?embed" allowfullscreen="allowfullscreen" allow="fullscreen"> </iframe> </div> {{endif}} This creates the iFrame. 
    (P.S. If members can submit to this Pages database, I would add an additional check to make sure we only use Canva URLs. Otherwise people could embed any iFrame on your website.)

    There isnt actually any secondary group labels that show in the software by default, so you must have a 3rd party item which is doing this. So you would need to ask this of the developer for that item.

    OK, so the downloads part first. Nobody can see those downloads unless they
    a) was given a direct link to an item by someone who has access to see it (an image for example)
    b) They have access to the admin CP, and can therefore see the files area
     
    With regard hiding secondary groups, you can indeed do that. In order to do so you would switch off the "Allow filtering by this group?" within that group. So nobody would actually be known to have that secondary member group if they have it, as it wouldnt show, and would not show those members if someone tried to search for members of that group

    Don’t get confused by the term “attachments”. Just upload the attachment and then click on the image (or the Insert button) to put the images at the cursor position. 
     
    (P.S. You can’t use the Pages media images. Those are to be used in templates and custom pages.)

    EvanDC reacted to opentype in Support Topic for Pages SuperDirectory   
    You are on the right track. Technically, there is nothing wrong there. You just need to get more familiar with Pages. IPS has a nice text-based help guide which teaches you how to use Pages database and how to configure individual fields. I would suggest to check that out before diving into custom or third-party templates. 
    Example: You are currently using “badges” for everything, which is probably not what you want. But that’s not directly SuperDirectory support issue. If you need a quick start, I also have a video course about Pages. 
    By the way: the font sizes are inhered from your theme. You can configure that there globally. That’s also not really related to SuperDirectory. 
    The gallery images will show correctly if you follow the instruction on the Additional Information tab. 
    And a final hint: Custom Pages fields have a setting to show the content “above” or “below” the content. With the SuperDirectory template, this would show the content bigger in the left column or smaller in the right column. That’s also something you probably want to make use of. At the moment, you push everything in the right sidebar because of this setting.

    There should be no need to customize anything in regards to the HTML or CSS.
    You could start by posting a screenshot. Maybe it gives a clue what is wrong.

    EvanDC reacted to opentype in Profile Badges Linking to External Site   
    Strangely enough, profile fields are not member-group specific, even though that would make perfect sense. 
    You can control the appearance of profile links in the forums (but not on the profile page) by editing the “Custom Topic Formatting” option of the field. Here is an example where a link is turned into a badge. You could just replace the badge part with an image (<img src="https://yoursite.com/patreon.png">) and you would get what you want.

    When creating a page, select the 'Manual HTML' option and then deselect 'Use suite HTML wrapper' in the resulting configuration - it can't be done with the Page Builder, as far as I am aware (although probably could be achieved if you want to begin hiding things using CSS)

    Brilliant - mystery solved! Thank you. 
    She told me she was using the 10 digit ISBN. I had told her to copy and paste it from Amazon. Turns out she's been entering the ISBN from the back of her physical books!!! So I was double checking using the ISBN-10 from Amazon, thinking that's what she was doing, she though was entering either the whole ISBN-13 or taking off the first three numbers of it, straight from the back of her books. 

    Sheesh! Thanks Adriano!!

    EvanDC got a reaction from Hatsu in Databases and Tiers   
    I've called this Databases and Tiers, but I might have also called it Databases and Tears! 
    I understand there's been a recent change to the way in which the tiered pricing structure works at Invision. I've just started a brand new site which I'm confident is going to grow rapidly simply because it is serving a clearly focussed niche group (church ministers in the UK), for which there is nothing like this provision out there. ... and I have a very strong network of people to tap into and they're all excited about it. So here I am beavering away at building the site. I start on the free trial and check out the functionality etc etc. Confident it's the right platform for me I buy in at the lowest tier because I'm not making any money from this site yet - hopefully I will, but not yet and not for a while. 
    So I'm busy customising it and buying in some apps from the marketplace when suddenly I realise that some of these customisations aren't working. It takes me a good while before I realise it's all down to one thing ... Database access. On the Creator package (lowest tier) full database access isn't available. So there's a bunch of applications in the marketplace which just don't work on that tier ... only that's about as transparent and obvious as a needle in a haystack. Sure, if you know what you're looking for you can see that maybe it's mentioned, but so vaguely and not in any kind of way that a beginner like me could be expected to understand that it feels like a con. 
    So I look at the Creator Pro tier and think about upgrading. It's another $70 a month!!! $70 just so I get to customise the databases a bit. That's almost double what is already a brilliant, but expensive platform to commit to. 

    Things I have absolutely no interest in ... EVERYTHING ELSE ON THE CREATOR PRO LIST! Don't care about coming soon Live Topics. Nope. Don't care about SSO. Don't care about API access or Live who's viewing. I just want to be able to customise some layouts a little bit to make it look nicer using the add-ons I foolishly bought on the marketplace thinking they'd work just fine ... because who knew "Full Page Builder Access" meant the same thing as vague mentions of "databases" on the app pages? 

    So this is me asking the guys at invision to think again about their tiered structure. I know this is a costly and brilliant platform to build, run and maintain. I know that. I'm hugely grateful to you for it. BUT ... is there honestly such a significant impact on your servers and services that pushing "Full Page Builder Access" into the Creator tier isn't possible, or indeed sensible? No way I can afford to cough up an additional $70 a month, I can barely afford the $99 a month I'm already paying. 

    When I was on the trial I understood that full page builder access was part of the deal. That's what I thought I was getting when I signed up. Not because I'd read the words anywhere, just because that's what I had in the trial I had. 

    If you can't push page builder down into the bottom tier, can you at least give a justifiable reason why not? Again, not interested in all the other stuff in the Creator Pro tier, just databases. Would it really be problematic to you - given how this move has screwed up app compatibility in the marketplace - and given how your trial period version includes it and then you do a bait and switch when someone buys in ... to include it as standard on all packages? 

    Thanks.

    It’s an annoyance for us too. IPS has just recently started to remove options from lower tiers and change their plans several times in a single year. Not much we can do about it. 
    In general, if you are unsure, you can always ask upfront in the support topics for the products. We can only describe the products. If it says it’s for “Pages databases”, it clearly describes that Pages databases are required, but of course you need to understand what that means. If not, please ask.

    Community in the Cloud, the IPS hosted version of the software which you are on.
    @IPS - CIC would make for a really good use of your built-in Word Expansion feature on this site.
    And as @opentype said, it's not the best clarity anymore - instead of explicitly stating the app and major feature available per-package, it's abstracted out with marketing-speak. When viewing the options on the pricing page you'll notice a number of options are actually clickable and expandable. You'll get more details there.

    @EvanDC Strange. PM me ACP access and I can take a peek. The current version of PCI does not get flagged by the PHP 8 checker in 4.7.5, and there are no change notes in 4.7.6 that would indicate something breaking. And that's the only direct reason I can think of to have the app disabled.
    No matter, PM me creds and I'll poke it with a stick.
