Emediate

Hey Gemini, please make invision community do smart AI type stuff and ensure you make it much much cleverer than that pesky xenforo thing.
Should do it I reckon? I'll send the invoice later.

I agree that replacing the search results with only an AI summary would be a downgrade. What I was thinking was having both: an AI synthesis of the search results, and then the search results themselves -- similar to what Google does now.

Matt, the views count is resolved as you can see here: https://invisioncommunity.com/forums/topic/482403-redis-x-number-of-views-of-content-item/#findComment-2996664
The problem now is this:
This:

The pending topics/posts. This is not being updated at all. I'm not sure this is related to Redis, though.

All of cloud uses Redis. My localhost install uses Redis. I really don’t know why it’s not working for you, but I can take another look today.

Ive tagged our developer on this, to see what they can advise

Is there a different way to go about getting some assistance with this?
3 people have requested help now, the owner of the site/license (me), the developer, and the host themselves who signed up here to try and assist us.

Is there a reason PostMark is recommended over Sendgrid?
We use Sendgrid across our company in multiple instances (not just forums).
I noticed its deprecated, even though it has remained on our install even after upgrading (thanks).
But is there a particular reason we should be investigating PostMark instead?

Yes the messaging is incorrect and is something we'll fix in the next v4 update.

Its quite normal for bugs to be fixed in the next upcoming round of bug fixes. Its not something available in a patch at present. 

Scammers are an increasing problem for community managers. Most of our moderation efforts (daily) now revolve around security rather than moderating actual discussions, which for a community of over 100,000 members is a nice problem to have, I guess.
However, the biggest issue we see these days is hijacked accounts. Not new accounts.
Their account has been compromised in an external data breach, and of course, because too many people use the same password everywhere, they eventually get into our community after monitoring their victim's email inbox for a while.
The first thing they do once they get access to a user's account is change their email address to one of their own so as to not alert the owner of the account. Sure, the system emails the original email address to let them know that it has been changed, but by then it can be way too late (as we have seen first hand).
Now I understand we can change the settings to require Admin Validation of email addresses, but that applies to New Member Registrations AND existing members. We don't want to have to approve every new member (we'd need a full time staff member just to do that daily). But we want to Admin Approve email CHANGE requests for Existing Members. That functionality doesn't seem to exist presently?

It was a firewall issue, resolved now. Thanks.

Why would allow the recipient of an invoice to cancel it?
Seems backwards to me. Admin should be able to cancel an invoice, but not the other way around.

Nowadays, photos from smartphones often weigh several Megabytes. My iPhone 11 pro gives standard 3,6 Mo pics and 4032x3034 pixels

In Invision, we can set the maximum weight of each photo, the space allocated to each, it's very good
We can also set the default display dimension in forums. Generally, between 800 and 1600 pixels. Rarely in the very large native dimensions of photos produced today.
This raises a question. Why keep original photos whose size and weight are not suitable for web publication?
Wouldn't it be appropriate to automatically reduce the size of downloaded images, so as not to use unnecessary space and to maximize their loading speed?
Of course, this device could be configurable, disengageable, with a quality setting ....

Is that possible at all? Users can go to the Orders page and cancel invoices. 
These are not “renewing” invoices. They are the charge for a job.

Well. That was an unfortunate typo. 

Is it possible to add an extra column to the exported RSS feed without a hook, as I will need this functionality on IPS5 as well?


- \IPS\core\Rss::generate()
/* We have to use get() to ensure CDATA tags wrap the title properly */ $title = \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->language()->get( "rss_export_title_{$this->_id}" ); $description = \IPS\Member::loggedIn()->language()->get( "rss_export_title_{$this->_id}_desc" ); $document = \IPS\Xml\Rss::newDocument( $this->url(), $title, $description ); foreach( $results AS $result ) { $result->addToRssFeed( $document ); } return $document->asXML(); } Thank you.

Commerce has not been removed.  It will continue to be available and they're adding more support for digital transactions (like better ad support, more subscriptions options, selling different digital offerings on your site, etc).  The only thing removed from Commerce is the ability to ship physical products.  The marketplace closure is not related to IPB5 development and has been done for MONTHS already.

Too late! Haha. We've been preparing for 6 months now. Removing redundant plugins, redeveloping others into apps, trying to second guess what we will and won't be able to do. Overall, it's been a long overdue process for us anyway, with at one stage over 60 different plugins and various things! Our board is running all the better for it now, but bring on V5!

Wow, great work!

If you have the means to do this, then this is an excellent start. It's also worth reevaluating plugins every 6 months or so to see if they are still effective or if you rarely use them or they had no impact on your community.

Always something good to do 🙂 I've done the same myself in the past, and ended up with none at all lol

We have to kind of feel our way through it. We have milestones, like:

Alpha 1
Upgradable Alphas
Upgradable from 4.x Alphas
Beta x lots
Final

But the timescales are really determined by how much feedback and how many bug reports we get. Rarely, we need to rethink a feature or code and do a bit of reworking. I would expect the beta process to be fairly short given how thorough we are with the alpha.
We've yet to build zips and have people install it on various servers which always adds a little volume to the tracker. That'll be coming up fairly soon.

Update: The alpha system has been built, and all the initial teething problems using Invision Community v5 without IN_DEV have been fixed. As mentioned above, currently all JS/themes and CSS is built on demand, and rebuilt on demand (often quite a lot). In v5 it's built once per version and stored in a new location, so there were some teething issues with that.
We'll test this new system internally today and if all goes well, we can start getting people in tomorrow.
