  1. Ahh, I see what you mean now. Yes, I totally agree with you on this.
  2. Generally, a more structured ā€œGalleryā€ button in the post editor (where you can line up columns of thumbnailed images in an organised fashion) has been something Iā€™ve asked for, for many months (years?) now. I hope itā€™s something the team can work on for a near-future V5 update (maybe 5.1?) because itā€™s probably the biggest missing piece of the puzzle in an otherwise incredible post editor UX experience. A good gallery/image grid option is the one thing Iā€™m truly missing from Wordpress since moving over fully to Invision Community, if Iā€™m being totally honest: ^ Letā€™s implement this into V5ā€™s post editor!

    That was always a third-party function and hasnā€™t really been a part of the core Invision Community offering; I wouldnā€™t expect something like this for 5.0, but it might be a good suggestion to make for later versions down the line.
  4. I recall Matt saying on the official Invision site once that the ā€œ+ā€ menu is indeed planned to disappear in favour of more contextual placements of buttons (i.e. ā€œNew Topicā€ in the forum app, ā€œNew articleā€ in pages app etc), but canā€™t say for certain if thatā€™s still the plan. I guess not enough people were using that feature enough (although I wasā€¦ but then again Iā€™m lazy lol)
  5. Not sure whatā€™s happening here, but I just checked my V5 instance on Google Chrome (macOS) and itā€™s looking a bit crazy in there. Hereā€™s how it looks on desktop Safari (Version 18.0 (20619.1.26.31.6)), as it should look: Hereā€™s the same page on Google Chrome (Version 129.0.6668.59 (Official Build) (arm64)): Hereā€™s a different set of blocks on the same page in Safari, as it should look: And hereā€™s the same set of blocks on latest version of Google Chrome: Iā€™ve tried resetting caches, hard-resetting the page, even updating and closing/re-opening the browser. But it still looks the same broken mess on Google Chrome. :( EDIT: Also getting some crazy design issues on this instance too:
  6. Just checking a few of the Tag pages I have on my Alpha 13 instance, and noticed that a lot of the ā€˜recent contentā€™ items on a few of them have disappeared, leaving only one or two items left on the page: Iā€™m assuming itā€™s because thereā€™s a ā€˜time limitā€™ in place for the platform to assess what is considered ā€˜recentā€™ content, and removes any items past a certain time frame (when is that? Two weeks? A month?). Is there a way we can have a setting to override that? I can imagine having many Tag pages on my community that would have a certain ā€˜shelf lifeā€™ (i.e. a tag page dedicated to a movie release, or a specific event), and would prefer to have ā€˜archiveā€™ tag pages populated with content by default, in case a user decides to check it out months/years after it stops being relevant. Also as a side note; that image above lists only one item under ā€˜Recent Contentā€™, but the date is months agoā€¦ so if there is a ā€˜time limitā€™ on these, I wonder what it keeping that particular content item from July 14th on that Tag pageā€¦? Unless itā€™s a bug?
  7. I have this image widget on the Page Editor. I have its visibility settings saved so that it should only appear in Desktop view. But it still appears when sizing the browser window down to ā€˜tabletā€™ resolution. And when viewing the site in Theme Editor, the block is still visible when setting the view to ā€˜Tabletā€™. ^ The block appears in ā€œLarge (desktop)ā€ view - this is correct. ^ The block still appears in ā€œMedium (tablet)ā€ view - this is incorrect. The block disappears when Mobile view is activated, as expected. Itā€™s just Tablet view where the block ignores the command and still appears.
  8. I think I had a similar issue in a past alpha, but upon taking screenshots for an entire different topic for the Suggestions forum I came across this whopper. Steps to replicate (for me, anyway): Create Topic Post Topic Actions > Copy to Database > Create Article from topic (Fields changed: Title, Content, Allow Comments [from unchecked to checked], Copy Posts [from unchecked to checked], Show Item Message? [from checked to unchecked], Use Original Author [from checked to unchecked], Image added, Tags added) See the following error: OutOfRangeException: (0) #0 /var/www/html/5000021/applications/cms/modules/front/database/topic.php(322): IPS\Patterns\ActiveRecord::load(23) #1 /var/www/html/5000021/system/Dispatcher/Controller.php(128): IPS\cms\modules\front\database\topic->form() #2 /var/www/html/5000021/applications/cms/modules/front/database/topic.php(84): IPS\Dispatcher\Controller->execute() #3 /var/www/html/5000021/system/Dispatcher/Dispatcher.php(169): IPS\cms\modules\front\database\topic->execute() #4 /var/www/html/5000021/index.php(16): IPS\Dispatcher->run() #5 {main} Backtrace: #0 /var/www/html/5000021/init.php(859): IPS\Log::log('OutOfRangeExcep...', 'uncaught_except...') #1 [internal function]: IPS\IPS::exceptionHandler(Object(OutOfRangeException)) #2 {main}
  9. Community admins can choose what specific page/app in the suite is set as ā€œHomeā€, on this instance it directs to the front page of the Forumsā€¦ but one could just as easily make it the ā€œActivity Streamā€ instead which works a bit more like a social media frontpage. :)

    Agreed! I think V5 is going to be a massive step up, and I canā€™t wait to road-test it in beta and adapt all of my V4 stuff so I can refresh and turbo-charge my community! I think users will really dig the changes, and some of the new features like tagging, post editor UI and side-panel is going to be a game-changer! Thank you all for working so hard on such an amazing-looking product!

    Thatā€™s amazing, thanks for all your hard work and effort @Ehren ! šŸ«”
  12. As of Alpha 12. Ehren shared the following code in order to allow any main-content elements to adjust their positions to the size of my sticky headers: :root{ --i-scroll-padding: calc(var(--i-headerPrimary--he) + 10px); --i-sticky-offset: calc(var(--i-headerPrimary--he) + 10px); }But this seems to no longer work in the latest version. Has the CSS logic changed? In inspector, I can see some new variables: The first two seem new, not sure what the difference between those are, and the third doesnā€™t seem to be listening to my override CSS code at the top there. Any ideas?

    Iā€™m curious, what are the use cases for having an advertisement only appear when block manager is open?
  14. Dialog boxes that float when using Page Editor stretch off to the side of the browser window, and clicking a block will show its options menu taking up the entire height of the browser. Chrome Version 127.0.6533.100 (Official Build) (arm64) on macOS 14.5
  15. Not sure whatā€™s going on here, maybe itā€™s part of the ongoing (and still happening, sadly) issue where tags are not appearing in content items (despite being added and visible in listing pages)ā€¦ but Iā€™ve noticed that nothing appears in the Tag area of a Page record when viewing as a guest. Guest User: Logged in User: Note the Tag section underneath the headline/featured badge. Appears for logged in users (but only prefix tag, it seems) but nothing at all for Guest. If the concept for IC5 is to use tagging as as the backbone for content discovery, itā€™s important for Guests to be able to view and access tags the same way as logged-in users.
  16. It doesnā€™t really look very good to have the sign up/sign in buttons wedged between the mobile header and breadcrumb. Can we have the option/have them moved to the mobile header, to the right, where the logged-in user avatar would usually be?
  17. Not sure if this is a bug or not but thought I'd flag it. I embedded a local content link elsewhere on this site, and the embed looks kinda strange. Thereā€™s a quote box within the embed wrapper that basically duplicates the same content as the embed box itself. There isnā€™t any need for the quote box (or its contents) to be there, really.
  18. I swear I have logged this somewhere before (maybe on the Alpha Club on the main IPS site) so apologies for bringing it up in a new topic rather than bumping an existing oneā€¦ But this is still an issue in the current alpha version. See below;

    Whoops, itā€™s been a while since I was last here I totally forgot I had posted these before! Feel free to close this but the suggestion still stands :)

    Upon opening the mobile drawer, all submenus are collapsed (see image below). Can we get an option for a submenu item to be open by default without requiring the user to click it open (on a per-menu item basisā€¦ it might not be appropriate to have every single submenu expanded by default) Can we have icons visible in submenus in the mobile menu? Itā€™s not very easy for users to scan this menu (see image below) without allowing the display of the awesome font iconsā€¦
  21. I click ā€˜Themeā€™ at the bottom of the page, and no menu appears. On macOS 14.5 using Chrome Version 127.0.6533.100 (Official Build) (arm64)
  22. If a Page record has not been given an associated image when created, the ā€˜Cover Photoā€™ options still appear but is not clickable. There is no default cover photo area displayed like in other areas of the suite (tag pages, profiles, etc).
  23. It seems that posting a topic and then copying to database will create a duplicate topic in the forum, rather than integrate the page record into the existing topic. The top forum topic item there is the original, which I copied to make the article (which created the bottom forum item in the image above there). My AdminCP options are exactly the same as in V4, so there shouldnā€™t be anything weird going on from that side of things: I actually just tried to replicate the steps in order to full screenshot every step, but when I copy-to-databaseā€™d a brand new original topic and hit ā€˜Saveā€™ on the post editor, I received this error message instead: Not sure whatā€™s going on there, but the duplication of topics is definitely not expected behaviour.
  24. Thatā€™s a really elegant solution - didnā€™t know about the ā€œcontainerā€ selector, thanks @Matt F ! Itā€™s appreciated! :)
  25. Seems to happen on profile hovercards and on Tag pages which donā€™t have a cover image set. ^ This one extends a fair distance outside of the boundaries of the covercard. ^ This one goes a little crazy and goes waaaaay off the page! :) EDIT: Just saw it on profile page too, when checking reputation (it doesnā€™t go OOB when checking the profile page in general): And again on a Tag page, this time with an uploaded cover image, on a mobile view (note: this screenshot was made on a desktop browser with the browser window narrowed to mobile width, not on an actual mobile device, if that helps):
