    Definitely. The CSS framework has been rebuilt, and light/dark mode is at the core - it's not an afterthought.

    Why does it seem like IPS just tries to sneak in a new pricing structure? This happened last time as well. Why can't you guys just make a blog post stating "hey are pricing structure is changing", why does it always have to be so secretive? It's only when a member notices it and brings it to light.
    Well looks like this will be the end of IPS for me and will be switching back to Xenforo then. I always assumed V5 was just an update, not a whole new force to cloud.

    Afrodude reacted to Askancy in Buying new self hosted licence - how to choose few applications?   
    But if I have a forum license, why do you have to FORCE me to pay more (from 110 to 199 per year), giving me applications like Pages, Commerce and Blog which honestly are garbage since you can get better results using other software?
    In my project I use Forum and Gallery and honestly, Gallery is so poorly structured and neglected by your development that it is not worth buying. You should offer a light package, only forum.
    I also have another project, an Italian support forum, invisionita, which is 13 years old. With these prices, it is becoming unsustainable for me to continue maintaining the project, translating the platform into Italian and helping with guides, etc. I cannot afford to pay $199 for unofficial Italian support.

    Cost of doing business I guess. But most of people like me cannot make switch as third party devs goes awol and their designs unsupported, add-ons broken. So would IPS take some decisions on making moves over this? It doesn't work if thirdy party devs fails to meet the requirements, unless one day we won't have any third party and all inhouse 🤔
     
    Is this going to be different in case of yearly or same monthly rules apply? i.e. need to pay for missed year as well?
     
    Frankly, as of now my overall cost for renewal for 3 licenses is abt 170-180$ I think,so about $360/yr, but if I make a switch that directly raises that to abt $600/yr. I ain't seeing any profits to me here + I keep an extra license just for my own development and testing activities with real users, so I get actual feedback for my major projects, so that license I may or may not renew for long period of time.

    @bassangler I cannot reply to your topic. 
    No, there is no way to do that without this third-party app by @Adriano Faria. Works great and it does what you are looking for plus great support by the developer.

    Afrodude reacted to Ehren in [Cosmetic] Author Badge on Firefox   
    Thanks, this seems to be a rendering issue with Firefox and semi-transparent gradients. At the time, it was the only way to blend currentColor with a semi-transparent version of the background color.
    This can now be done with color-mix. If you'd like to update it on your site, adding this to custom.css should do the trick:
    @supports (color: color-mix(in srgb, red, blue)){ .ipsBadge{ background: var(--badge--background, color-mix(in srgb, currentColor 10%, rgba( var(--theme-area_background_reset), 1 ))); } }

    Afrodude got a reaction from Claudia999 in [Suggestion] Add Poll to Pages Database   
    To encourage members to engage with news and other purposes admins are using Pages for, it would be wonderful if we could have polls with Pages. I believe it would help many communities to make their members engage in regard to what they utilize Pages Database for because some people they don't like to leave a comment, or they are much active etc...

    Afrodude reacted to PatrickRQ in [Suggestion] Please add group-based options to enable/disable pii data requests and account deletion   
    Too many configs is not good as well, however there is few types of configs IPS @Matt should always consider when designing a system. One of them is per group permission to display or use something. In past, at times of IPB 3x they were adding more of such, starting from IPB4 they somehow stopped doing that.

    Afrodude reacted to PatrickRQ in Issues of 4.7.9 - 4.7.11, request   
    HI IPS,
    I personally do not like this type topics when my Customers post it, and to be honest I have a feeling  just I want to click DELETE button, however every time I see such I try to understand them.
    I noticed that for last few updates you started creating many new issues while fixing other. If you will search forums you will notice that recent updates generated many problems where some were/are related to important areas.. e.g. payments (PayPal), login session.. and many many smaller ones.
    If you are unsure of quality of specific update, maybe reconsider not pushing update just because you are at the end of your monthly schedule? maybe split updates into 2 smaller ones, to twice a month? as if you will create new issues, your customers must wait a month for next update (since you stopped pushing hotfix releases for a while already).
    I honestly can understand you often do your best, check things million times, you are happy all is working where at the end some updates are total fail - I know it from autopsy, but if things start to happen for 1-2-3.. updates.. that means some procedure requires correction. Discuss it internally. Thanks.

    Afrodude reacted to Chris Anderson in Add Audit Trail for Account Deletion Requests   
    As it currently stands in Version 4.7.11 Beta 2, once you click on the check mark shown below the deletion process is executed, and no trace of the action is logged.
    I suggest that upon clicking on the check mark the request is moved to a new section called "Deletion Requests Completed" with the photo and email redacted as they would be considered PII.  But the deletion request and the day it is completed should be logged for auditing purposes.
    This way you could detail later that a member by the name of "X" who joined on a particular date was ultimately deleted "per request" on another particular date.

    Not a big deal but I thought I should share these issues with default IPS theme in RTL mode.
    I'm not sure when these issues started to happen *Starting from which IPS version*, But I can see it now with 4.7.10
