It’s been four months since Invision Community 5.0.0 was released and we’ve had a lot of feedback over those months which has fed into a number of improvements. While we have a number of bigger features in the pipeline, sometimes the smaller improvements which improve your time on the community can have a bigger impact. Let’s take a look at those changes. Tag usage chart filtersOur re-imagined tagging system brings content from across the suite into a single page offering opportunities for secondary categorization. The AdminCP statistics chart for tag usage was updated with a customizable filter so you can drill down by app and sections allowing you to look at tag usage in specific forums or galleries rather than across the community. Recommended TagsWhile we recommend that communities use as few tags as possible to make tagging more effective, it can be possible to end up with dozens of tags even though your community may use the same handful for most of their content. You can now surface any tag to the top of the list by making it a recommended tag. This also has the benefit of nudging your community to use your preferred tags. Forum CollectionsThere are many places in the AdminCP where you’re asked to select many forums. It might be when you’re creating a saved moderation action and want to choose which forums it can be run on. Most communities tend to have logical groupings. On our forum here, we have feedback and ideation sections, along with support sections. We often have to select the same forums when setting up moderation, announcements or even default streams. We have to click the same four or five forums each time and if we ever removed or added a forum, we’d need to remember to go and add that in manually. Forum collections allow you to create groups of forums. In our example, you may create a grouping of all support forums. Once set up, you can select that single grouping instead of manually selecting the forums you need. They even update when you add or remove forums. Turnstile CAPTCHAThe venerable Google hCAPTCHA has served us well. For many years we’ve been identifying traffic lights and motorcycles for reasons no one really knows when we have the temerity to use a public WiFi connection. As much fun as it is working out if two pixels into a new square means it should be clicked or not, the truth is that hCAPTCHA isn’t as effective as blocking bot traffic as it once was. Cloudflare’s Turnstile CAPTCHA is a very effective (and free!) solution. It’s much less obtrusive too and in most cases you don’t need to do anything. It’s now an option and we recommend you check it out. This wraps up the most recent improvements to Invision Community 5. Which are you looking forward to the most?
