Dll

Nothing, it won't list every single page on your forum in the sitemap.

Are you definitely using Google tag manager and not just ga4 direct?

Good luck in your new endeavours Rikki.

Media queries are the standard way to write responsive websites. I'm not sure Invision need to reinvent that.

Yeah, definitely not a bug, nothing to see here. 🤨

Try port 587

Not sure. Quantity ≠ Quality necessarily?

I'm not sure this is working in 4.7.1 - the only email type that's being logged from it is the test email from the ACP.

You could use a page rule in cloudflare to get round this.

Is something wrong with the new trending topic system on here, the topics showing on there don't seem like they're really going to be trending right now, since they're from 2015.

I think you're misunderstanding a little in terms of how speed and google rankings relate. Although Google have never given a definitive answer (to my knowledge), the current consensus is that as long as you pass the core web vitals tests, then speed won't be a negative factor. So, once you do pass them, you're not going to gain anything in that respect by spending more time trying to get additional small gains in speed. Out of the box, assuming it's hosted on reasonable servers which are appropriately resourced for the traffic the community receives, and assuming there are no modifications causing issues, from what I've seen at least, Invision's software passes the core web vitals tests. So, for the vast majority of sites, that's great. If your hosting isn't great, or you have a bunch of modifications which slow things down, then you may need some extra help to pass the core web vitals test. Perhaps you were in that boat, who knows. But, personally I'd still recommend you and others in a similar position look first at the root causes of any specific problems you're having and dealing with those. Going to great lengths to minimise the css is more like a sticking plaster and a time consuming one at that.

Errm, not wanting to spoil the snake-oil style sales pitch here. But, if you want to go and do some research, you'll find plenty of Invision based communities and websites doing very well in google. It's the core web vitals which can potentially have an affect on rankings due to the fact they measure things which affect user experience, and even in the apparently terrible example you posted for this site, they pass.

But what you've written there is clearly ignoring the facts and on top of that you're throwing unfounded accusations around. It's not reasonable behaviour. Going back to the original point I've been trying to make though, take your own site as an example. I'm sure it scores very well, but I assume in order to better those scores you're using very low resolution images on there. Is that better or worse for the user?

I've already demonstrated to you that you don't need to do whatever customisations you're doing for your own site / selling to others isn't necessary to achieve good speed , ux and core web vitals scores on mobile. So, it seems as if you're being deliberately disingenuous there.

I'm just suggesting that there are better ways to achieve what you're hoping to without spending hours and hours hacking about in the css. Particularly as that's now harder to do. And on top of that, once a website is fast enough that its speed doesn't affect the user experience negatively, you're chasing ever diminishing returns for your time, regardless of how good your speed scores get. Particularly when you consider the myriad of other things which go into making a website worthwhile for a user that you could be spending your time on.

But here's the thing, here's one for a community without your updates, not really any difference?

@Adlago - have you looked into how those changes affect actual users rather than test scores? I know you like your tests etc, but improvements are only of use when they actually positively impact the user experience and load time by a discernable amount. This is why things like core web vitals exist now, as that's specifically measuring how a site loads for a user. You're probably going down a rabbit hole with all this stuff which improves your scores but maybe makes <50ms difference to page load time, which in turn makes little to no difference when it comes to an actual person using your website. It's up to you of course, but for most website developers there are way more worthwhile and impactful things to be doing with their time.

I'd maybe recommend reading up on using Google tag manager @Adam Goodrich - we've found it's generally easier to implement these sorts of things in GA4 through that + I believe Invision have added some functionality which hooks into it in the latest release.

No, the custom CSS is still there @My Sharona.

You could maybe just post an image into the threads you want to share, as a work round?

@marklcfc - we use this, it uses the first image in the thread as the image used on shares. Maybe not the control you may want over the images, but we find it's pretty useful.

Just spotted an issue with the similar content widget on here - it's showing a link to this, but it doesn't exist: https://invisioncommunity.com/invision-community-documentation/reaching-out-to-your-members/alert-system-r2/

One of the pain points I see is this new found, deeper entrenchment of views and opinions that some people have gained in recent years - in part I assume it is related to social media and how easy it is to create an echo chamber for those views. To give an example - some people are so entrenched in their viewpoint that they don't really engage in a discussion other than to disagree with those who suggest anything different, restate their points and ultimately just go around in circles regardless of evidence, suggestions and information being fed back into the discussion by other participants. This can make discussions more fractious, and ultimately hurts engagement within them as people tire of the circular arguments being regurgitated and just step away from them. From a moderation perspective I think it's really tricky to know where to draw the line - different viewpoints and a bit of drama can add spice to debates, but when and how to stop that when it does start to become circular? And what to do about those with a tendency to take discussions in that direction? I'd be interested to know how other communities deal with this sort of thing.

Of course there is. Turning to some sort of pirated version of anything should never be an option.

No, it's for static links.
