The Gallery home
Hi ๐๐ผ Currently, the small image views on the Gallery app homepage are practical for quickly overviewing multiple images. However, I believe it would be highly beneficial to introduce a toggle feature that allows users to switch to a larger single image view mode directly from the homepage. This mode would display each image more prominently, similar to the browsing experience on platforms like Instagram. By implementing this feature, users could seamlessly transition between these viewing modes based on their preferences. Additionally, providing site administrators with the ability to control which mode is default (or which mode is only available), would ensure flexibility in catering to different user preferences and content types. **While I understand that users can currently navigate from Gallery Home through to categories and then to albums to view photos in a single scroll, integrating this toggle directly on the homepage would streamline the browsing experience and provide immediate visual impact. Thanks for taking the time to read this Antony ๐

Commerce - Storefront
Thanks Gary for update and the links as I hadnโt seen them previously. I guess I had envisioned the Storefront evolving into a multi-vendor environment within Invision Power, akin to cs-cartโs multi-vendor model except better as itโs within Invision Power itself. In my view, Invision Power's powerful and flexible design, focuses on true social media engagement, makes opening up the storefront to members a logical step to significantly enhance monetization opportunities for site owners. Personally, I'd rather invest in enhancing Invision Power than in platforms like cs-cart or Shopify as for me creating a multi-vendor storefront within Invision Power, under one roof, outweighs the need to integrate costly cs-cart and Shopify models. This approach also avoids managing two separate websites, saving stress, money, and time. Moreover, it leverages the unique monetization opportunities only possible within the robust Invision Power environment. Iโm trying at present to picture us having 10 Invision power sites now each one having to have itโs own shopify site ๐ณ and thatโs just to achieve the original storefront for site owner. Many thanks for your feedback and all the amazing work you and the team have done on v5. Looking forward to its launch ๐ Antony

Commerce - Storefront
๐ณ sorry for asking but why would you remove the ability for the site owner to sell physical items? Like merchandise etc.. especially when we already have a powerful digital marketplace with file sharing? Are you then just completely removing the shop functionality and the site owner just sells their digital goods through the already established digital marketplace? Thanks for update.

Commerce - Storefront
Hi ๐๐ผ Regarding the Commerce app, which serves as a storefront for site owners (please correct me if Iโm mistaken), I have a suggestion. Would it be feasible to allow site owners to enable members to open their own storefronts and sell their physical items? Essentially, this would transform the community into a dynamic shopping center environment. The site owner could manage this by creating listing packages and setting up options to charge either commissions or flat fees. This feature could significantly enhance community engagement and monetization opportunities, empowering members to participate more actively in the marketplace aspect of the community. maybe also opening it up to work within Clubs too. Thanks

Object Storage
Hi Guys, Thereโs been amazing work done to date from the Invision team ๐ buzzing for this all to be launched. I wanted to ask if you guys are planning on allowing other S3-compatible object storage options on self hosting other than AWS ? Ones like Linode.com (as thatโs where Iโll be hosting) and wasabi.com As Invision power is powerful and very flexible Iโm really hoping the object storage can be flexible too. thanks
