David H. Lipman Posted July 6, 2021 ID:1467898 Share Posted July 6, 2021 (edited) Once again Invision has messed-up the Forum interface. Now when I view the "Who's Online" list, I can no longer see what a user is accessing. Before I could hover over a member and it would show what they are viewing. That's gone. Additionally, before it would show myself logged in anonymously. Now it doesn't list me online at all. Example: The following shows @AdvancedSetup is "Online now" but no longer shows what he is viewing. As one can see, it no longer shows me logged-in... Previously it would show that I am logged-in and displayed a "eye" type logo next to my Forum Name indicating I am logged-in anonymously. Edited July 7, 2021 by David H.

Porthos Posted July 7, 2021 ID:1467903 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Probably a feature not a bug. 22248290_1677578505616889_8317215142345441280_n.mp4 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexSmith Posted July 7, 2021 ID:1468028 Share Posted July 7, 2021 We are looking in to this along with a bug effecting Streams 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexSmith Posted July 7, 2021 ID:1468034 Share Posted July 7, 2021 @David H. Lipman we have verified the issue and reported it to IPS.

David H. Lipman Posted July 7, 2021 Author ID:1468047 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Thanx @AlexSmith Another bug is the Thread Starter identification. There used to be a flag on the account that started a thread noting that person as a Thread Starter (or other verbiage) and that no longer is the case.

David H. Lipman Posted July 7, 2021 Author ID:1468055 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Yes, I do see "Author" on the Right at the top. The label of Thread Starter (or other text) was on the left pane. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Root Admin AdvancedSetup Posted July 7, 2021 Root Admin ID:1468064 Share Posted July 7, 2021 That was a plugin and disabled as a duplicate @David H. Lipman once IPS supported the Author feature. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1PW Posted July 7, 2021 ID:1468154 Share Posted July 7, 2021 Using mixed decimal notation to represent a member's number of posts is undesirable. Then, adding a 'hover' translation just makes for bloated code. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
AlexSmith Posted July 13, 2021 ID:1469152 Share Posted July 13, 2021 @David H. Lipman IPS has informed us the change to how anonymous users appear in the "Who's Online" block on the main page was by design, but not documented in their release notes, to improve load performance of their platform. They also informed us that removing the "viewing" status of the profile hover card was also not documented in their release notes but was by design to support the new Achievements component in 4.6 (we currently do not use this new component by the way). We requested that they add back the later functionality of the hover card in a future release. As far as the Streams issue goes, that has been resolved. IPS also fixed errors related to uploading attachments (error 200) and resolved some overall forums performance issues. @1PW I appreciate the feedback on that, but that is not really a traditional issue per say since the information is still there, just displayed a little differently. One could argue it conserves space with the new format. We won't be requesting IPS to look in to or change this. 1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
