Referencing our coming soon blog entry it appears Apple was fast today. We will post a blog entry soon letting everyone know the app is now available but for those who want to jump on early:
http://itunes.apple....20635?ls=1&mt=8
Note that it will only work on our company forums here right now as it requires 3.3.2. We appreciate bug reports and feedback you may have. Keep in mind we want to hear about feature ideas but we are not going to add new features right now: only perfect existing ones.
New features will come out after we release the Android version and can then develop both iOS and Android at the same time as we add new features.

#2251383 IP.Board & The Forum Will Be Dead Within 5 Years
Posted
on 07 April 2012 - 09:18 AM
I'm pretty sure this same topic was alsot posted 5 years ago 
The Internet has always been about people talking to each other and sharing. Facebook, Twitter, etc. have actually made forums (and in term our business) more accessible as more and more people in the general populace are comfortable talking online. It's become commonplace for people to post messages and talk to others online.
So I would respectfully disagree in the assessment that Facebook and such will kill forums when we have seen our business do better with the huge acceptance of online communication by the masses. Look at it this way: when your grandmother is cool with talking to others online then any medium to do that is surely going to stick around.

IPS is making some changes to our pricing to streamline our offerings and recognize changing business needs.

It gets pretty old saying "it's nine ninety nine" so we are going to round up all prices to their nearest dollar. So, for example, our community hosting Basic 10 service will now be $10 rather than...

Release Notes
- If you are upgrading a community with a large number of posts from version 3.1.4 or earlier you may wish to have your web host execute the post table alter query on your behalf. Large post tables may time out running this query in the browser. The upgrade system will warn you if this is needed. As a benchmark, our install of 865,000+ posts took a bit less than 3 minutes to run this query.
- If you are upgrading from version 3.1.4 or earlier, your skin will of course need to be redone after you upgrade to 3.2.
- The visual skin editor in 3.2 should still be considered a beta feature. It will be improved with each maintenance update.
- Each of the applications specified above is only compatible with IP.Board 3.2 and not older versions (for example, IP.Nexus 1.3 cannot be installed on IP.Board 3.1.x).
- We may reply to this topic with hot-fix patches or notes if any critical issues come up so please use the "Follow this Topic" feature to get notified.
- If you experience any problems, before submitting a ticket, please disable all third party applications and hooks.
- Please remember that IP.Calendar and IP.Chat are separate downloads in your client area. You will need to download and upgrade these separate applications (in addition to IP.Board itself) if you wish to continue using them with IP.Board 3.2.
Please read our 3.2.0 announcement for a full list of what's new in the 3.2 series!
#2100119 Really Hoping for some *GOOD* news about Gallery...
Posted
on 08 April 2011 - 11:55 AM
Gallery 4.0.3 is in QA testing now. In addition to dozens of bug fixes there are the following changes:
Bugs fixed (so far - as I said it's in QA now):
- Ability to sort albums (per album basis) in both ACP and front end
- Ability to use 'detail' page (larger thumbs) as the default album page (per album basis) in both ACP and front end
- Detail page updated to include: Like box, ratings, image author, album edit, delete and slideshow links.
- Uploading into a child album now updates the cover images of all global parents.
- Container albums show the upload button and the upload form suggests they create a new album, new album dialog has container album selected as parent
- Watermark has been re-added with a per-album option
- Added a script to convert old favorites and subscription to the new 'like' system
- Member albums now REQUIRE a global album or another album as parent, you can't create them as 'root' albums anymore
- The upgrade script will move any albums like that in a temporary global album
- Re-added delete album option in the userCP albums list
- Added MPG, MPEG and MKV as media formats
- Now the original image saved when watermarking has a unique name so members can't retrieve it by adding the orig_ prefix in the image name
- Original image is now deleted together with the other images (small, medium, large, thumbnail)
- Moderation logs are now saved for: delete album, delete/move images, approve/unapprove images
Bugs fixed (so far - as I said it's in QA now):

#2086569 IP.Gallery 4.0.0 Released
Posted
on 04 March 2011 - 03:59 AM
Invision Power Services, Inc. is pleased to announce the release of IP.Gallery 4.0.0!
IP.Gallery 4.0.0 is the latest version of our popular Gallery application. It has been completely rewritten to modernize the interface and to add better functionality. Everyone here at IPS is very excited at this new release and hope our customers will enjoy the update to this popular application.
Over the course of development, we've kept a blog on its development and we invite you to review the entries:
IP.Gallery 4.0.0 Manifesto
IP.Gallery 4.0 is a huge upgrade; the single biggest upgrade it has ever seen. We're blasting out the cobwebs and introducing a slick new interface that never loses sight of what a Gallery should be. We're simplifying permissions and accessibility to remove the clutter and confusion. We want you to fall in love with Gallery again.
IP.Gallery 4.0.0 Structural Changes
I want to completely re-focus Gallery and make the media the center of the application. I want users to view the images without being so concerned as to where they belong. I want to focus on organic discovery over being forced to browse pages of user albums or pages of categories.
IP.Gallery 4.0.0 View Image Page Tour
I have taken a short video to explain some of the larger changes and features of this page for Gallery 4.
IP.Gallery 4.0.0 Uploading Tour
Arguably the most crucial part of the gallery system is the upload system. A cumbersome and slow upload system deters people from uploading new images.
IP.Gallery 4.0.0 Interface Tour
I wanted to take a moment to run through the interface and explain a little more about the album types we have in IP.Gallery now.
IP.Gallery 4.0.0 Media Uploading Tour
You can upload videos alongside normal photos and quickly add a thumbnail to the video. If you upload a m4v, certain mov files and flv files, these are played in a Flash video player much like YouTube.
IP.Gallery 4.0.0 Mobile Skin
The mobile theme is lightweight as expected and makes good use of the small cropped thumbs as well as the new 'small' image that is created. This saves a lot of bandwidth which will be a huge relief to those that don't have a good 3G signal.
Upgrading
IP.Gallery 4.0.0 has a built in upgrade system to upgrade your current IP.Gallery. However, please understand that this is a very large update and the interface has changed completely. We strongly recommend that you read the blog entries or test the Gallery installation on this site to ensure that all the functionality you need is available and the new interface suits your needs. If you have a gallery-centric site you may wish to wait for a future version. Please use the feedback forum for any discussion on the new functionality.
Version 4.0.1 Coming Soon
IPS is dedicated to promptly fixing any reported issues and will do so with the release of IP.Gallery version 4.0.1 very soon.
As mentioned in the release notes: because this is the first widely-distributed release there will be as yet undiscovered issues. You can expect several maintenance releases over the next several weeks. We appreciate your understanding and hope you can assist us in identifying any problems in this first supported release so we can quickly remedy them in our next updates.

Release Notes
- If you are using IP.Content blocks that use Gallery data, please wait until IP.Gallery 4.0.1 for the updated IP.Content integration
- We have had several beta releases for testing and are confident any major issues have been addressed. However, as this is the first supported release that will be used by thousands of people, there could be as yet undiscovered issues. Please report issues in the bug tracker.
- Important technical support note: During the launch of a new products, and the great interest created, support response times (especially for install or upgrade requests) may be delayed. We appreciate your understanding during the launch time. If your community is critical in nature and even the slightest delay in support services would impact you then you may wish to wait until a future version to use IP.Gallery.
- IP.Gallery requires IP.Board 3.1.4 and will not install on prior versions.
- MSSQL driver files are still in development and not available with IP.Gallery 4.0.0
- If your server uses ImageMagick (rather than GD) for image manipulation please wait for IP.Gallery 4.0.1.

#2044487 IP.Board 3.1.4 Released
Posted
on 18 November 2010 - 07:33 AM
Invision Power Services, Inc. is pleased to announce the release of IP.Board 3.1.4
IP.Board 3.1.4 is a maintenance release that fixes issues reported in the previous version and also adds required support for the new application updates scheduled to be released over the next few weeks. We were forced to release patches to 3.1.3 to address a few unforeseen issues with updates to IP.Board so it would be compatible with our new application releases. Version 3.1.4 is a version-number increment so all of our customers can be sure they are fully up to date with those patches. In addition to the 3.1.3 patches it also contains a few other bug fixes and small changes however there are no skin template, CSS, or language changes.
Downloading
You can download IP.Board 3.1.4 in the client area. You might also read our general upgrading instructions for our software.
If you are already running IP.Board 3.1.3 you can also download an upgrade pack in the client area that contains only those files changed between 3.1.3 and 3.1.4 which allows for a faster upgrade process.
Support Note
As with any release, please expect support response times (particularly for install/upgrade requests) to be longer than usual for the next few days. Refer to your license terms for support response SLAs. The upgrade pack for 3.1.3 to 3.1.4 makes upgrades much faster and easier so, whenever possible, you may wish to consider taking advantage of that option.

We are (extremely) pleased to announce the first release candidate of Invision Power Board 3.0.0 is now available.

A release candidate is a version of the software between the beta phase and a final release. With the first release candidate of IP.Board 3.0.0 you can safely assume that we consider the software stable enough to use on your live community. There will be bugs and issues but it is our belief that any issues that come up should not impact your overall ability to manage your community. Keep this in mind as you make your decision to upgrade to IP.Board 3.0.0 RC1 and only upgrade if you are comfortable working around any possible issues that are present. We will of course fix any issues that come up in IP.Board 3.0.0's final release.
Technical Support and Service
IP.Board 3.0.0 RC 1 can be considered safe to use on a live site but it is not quite the final version of the software just yet. We want to give those comfortable upgrading to an RC release the chance to do so and report issues before we encourage everyone to upgrade. Technical support and service is not offered during the RC stage but of course will be available when the final version is announced.
Download IP.Board 3.0.0 RC 1
To download, log in to your client area. You will see the RC download information by clicking into your downloads. As stated above, technical support is not available so please only download if you are comfortable testing software.
