For anyone in the future who runs into this issue and wants their Raw HTML Widget to match their forum and themes, here is what you need to do:

Has anyone here successfully had Claude or ChatGPT make a module or app for IPS5? It seems to spit out plenty of stuff that looks good, but I can't ever get any of it to install.
A few things I've been trying to make:
Duplicate Account Detector (my forum has a huge problem with trolls and dupe accounts, people signing up multiple accounts with no way to stop them)
Subscription Comparison Tool - This one is to automatically generate a comparison chart showing the privileges and permissions in IPS5 that each Group has,

Yes, one thing that I've noticed is it will spit out a bunch of PHP and XML files, and then provide a directory structure, but then when I ask it to change something it will revise all of the files, change the names of the files and then spit out a different directory structure with folders that weren't there previously. So yes it seems to be able to produce some kind of uncanny product that is able to fool me into thinking it could work. But I'm not a developer or a programmer at all I'm just some guy who has used a computer for 30 years, and if anything I'm doing is working it's because I'm failing upward or getting lucky.
I appreciate your thoughts on the matter in any case!

In my experience working on professional and personal applications and code (Python, Java, etc), these AI assistant models via ChatGPT/CoPilot/etc are great starting points and can help get you down the right track but are very prone to mistakes and gaps in functionality. You can keep iterating and refining but you often get into cycles of inconsistency and hallucinations, spending more time trying to contextually prompt it through the issues than you would in manually reviewing/coding a bit more to get it further along.
They'll get better and better over time, but models will only output as good as your prompts and context guide it to. And even then, they have boundaries/limits to their context capacity and can lose or ignore important aspects (without telling you so and despite you continually instructing it otherwise). Again, they are great at getting you started and helping you understand/troubleshoot/fix specific issues, but they aren't at a level yet where you can create deeply complex or heavily integrated applications in their entirety faster (or at all) through prompts alone. There is no doubt they'll help you fast track though, so I highly recommend adopting them with your coding!
Just my .02, they are great learning tools, I use them every single day whether it's in my professional projects, personal projects, or in my personal life.

We actually have an open bug report for this

Our forum is very embed heavy. Back in the days of IPS4, a previous iteration of our site was able to simply copy the link to a track on Soundcloud or Bandcamp and a slim player would auto-populate without the multiple clicks needed now to embed in IPS5. How can we get this back? I would like our members to be able to simply copy and paste a link, hit post, and the players show up without taking up half the screen.
Another issue is that, using the Embed links on these sites, you have to cut out the main link from the HTML bits, then click on the Link button the toolbar of this comment editor, then click the world button, then it 'might' generate the embedded player which 'might' be able to be resized. How can we use the full HTML embed in a post?
Here is what happens when I copy a link to Soundcloud straight from the address bar (as opposed to using the Share button and generating and Embed link):
This is a GIANT player and cannot be resized. Not good for us, unfortunately.
Here is what happens when we instead click Share, then Embed, then copy the HTML to the player, then copy the actual hyperlink in the HTML, then click on the Link button on the comment editor toolbar, then click on the 'world' button:

Oops, I guess we can't embed these links in here, they're not allowed or whitelisted? Anyhow. I'm hoping someone understands what I'm getting at. See here:

I had the Reactions image hosting setting to AWS as opposed to Invision Community in the Cloud for some reason. When I reverted it back to Invision Community in the Cloud it seemed to fix itself.

This has been resolved!

100% agree. The Tag feature is very limited and needs to include merging and sorting/filtering. This would be the most crucial add-on or feature upgrade.
