Libraries
Build a richer publishing and knowledge experience for Invision Community with a native system for articles, books, and documents. Libraries is designed for communities that need more than a flat docs area. It gives you structured libraries, nested shelves, multi-format content, reader-friendly navigation, and IPS-native moderation and engagement tools in one app.
What It Does
Libraries lets administrators and approved members organize long-form knowledge content into a clear hierarchy:
Libraries group major knowledge areas, product collections, or publishing sections
Shelves organize topics inside each library, including nested shelf structures
Articles, Books, and Documents give you the right content format for editorial writing, multi-page manuals, and reference material
Instead of forcing every piece of content into the same shape, Libraries supports different reading experiences while still keeping everything inside IPS-native content workflows.
Key Features
Articles for Editorial and Guide Content
Dedicated Article Type: Publish articles as their own content type instead of treating everything like a plain document entry
Single-Page Reading Flow: Ideal for announcements, tutorials, opinion pieces, changelog explainers, release writeups, and in-depth guides
Rich Presentation: Articles support cover images, subtitles, overview text, tags, prefixes, and formatted editor content
Native IPS Engagement: Articles participate in follows, reactions, reporting, comments, reviews, ratings, and read tracking
Software Linking: Articles can be tied directly to Software Marketplace items when you want release or feature documentation attached to a product
Books for Multi-Page Manuals and Structured Reading
True Book Content Type: Create multi-page books instead of splitting manuals into disconnected posts or standalone documents
Book Page Manager: Add, edit, delete, reorder, enable, disable, and organize pages from a dedicated management workspace
Intro Page and Reading Paths: Books can open on a preferred intro page, then continue through a structured chapter flow
Nested Page Structure: Build parent and child page relationships for more advanced manuals, handbooks, and product guides
Reader-Friendly Navigation: Books can expose page outlines, current-page table of contents blocks, and clean page-specific URLs inside the parent book
Draft-First Workflow: New books start in draft so authors can build page structure before publishing
Publishing Safeguards: Books are protected from being published as empty shells without readable pages
Unified Discussions: Comments, reviews, follows, helpfulness, moderation state, and other IPS content behavior stay attached to the parent book item
Revision-Aware Authoring: Book pages and book changes fit into the app revision-oriented publishing workflow for ongoing maintenance
Documents for Straightforward Reference Content
Single-Page Reference Format: Use documents for FAQs, support notes, internal reference material, setup steps, quick answers, or short technical explanations
Cleaner Than Forum Posts: Documents keep knowledge content separate from discussion-first areas while still supporting IPS engagement where needed
Shared Feature Set: Documents also support editor content, overview text, cover images, tags, related software links, comments, reviews, and moderation controls
Structured Libraries and Shelf Navigation
Library and Shelf Hierarchy: Organize content in a way that feels closer to a real documentation center or digital publishing library
Nested Shelves: Use parent and child shelf structures to separate products, departments, categories, chapters, or knowledge domains
Finder-Style Browsing: Members can browse through index, library, shelf, and item views instead of relying on one flat listing
On-Page Navigation Aids: Heading-aware table of contents support helps readers move through long-form content more easily
Related Content Discovery: Surface more items from the same shelf to keep readers moving through connected material
Native IPS Publishing, Community, and Moderation Tools
Comments and Reviews: Let members discuss and review articles, books, and documents directly on the content item
Helpfulness Voting: Readers can mark content as helpful or not helpful for lightweight quality feedback
Private Negative Feedback Threads: Not-helpful responses can include private written feedback, with author or staff replies when needed
Drafts and Approval Workflows: Shelf-level controls can govern draft saving, approval requirements, and moderated publishing behavior
Silent Editing and Revision Tracking: Maintain content cleanly without losing control over edit visibility and history
Read Markers, Reporting, Embeds, and Follows: The app uses familiar IPS content behaviors instead of reinventing them in a parallel system
Marketplace and Commerce Integration
Software Marketplace Bridge: Link content directly to Marketplace software items and surface it in the software item Documentation tab
Related Software Panels: Show readers which Marketplace item a piece of content belongs to, with pricing and product context where relevant
Paid Content Support: Documents, articles, and books can participate in paid-access workflows when Commerce integration is enabled
Purchase Terms and Renewals: Support monetized documentation workflows with terms acceptance, renewals, and entitlement-aware access control
Template System and Visual Families
Multiple Shipped Design Families: The app includes distinct visual family foundations inspired by Basic, Apple Finder, GNOME Files, and Windows Explorer
Full Template Set Architecture: The front end is split into managed runtime targets for the frame, index, library, shelf, document, My Items, book manager, terms manager, submit flow, and Marketplace tab body
ACP Template System: Administrators can manage template sets directly from the AdminCP instead of editing one hard-coded front-end layout
Fork, Clone, Import, and Export: Start from a shipped family, create blank sets, clone existing sets, or move full template sets between installs as JSON packages
Per-Set CSS and JavaScript: Each template set can carry its own custom CSS and JavaScript for deeper visual and interaction customization
Baselines and Revisions: Save set-wide baselines for restore points and keep template-level revisions for safer iterative design work
Global Theme Switching for the App: Activate a template set to change the Documentation and Libraries experience across the app from a single managed system
Use Cases
Libraries is especially well suited for:
software product documentation
release notes and feature explainers
premium article publishing
multi-page manuals and handbooks
customer knowledge bases
internal team documentation
developer guides and API references
training materials and onboarding content
AdminCP Areas
The app includes dedicated AdminCP management areas for:
Libraries
Shelves
Documents and content items
Helpfulness Ratings
Statistics
Settings
Why It Stands Out
Most IPS knowledgebase-style solutions focus on a single document format. Libraries goes further by giving you a broader publishing model: articles for polished single-page reading, books for structured multi-page content, and documents for quick reference material, all inside one organized library and shelf system.

Due to the lack of hooks in IPS5, the Tabs option cannot be added to Account Settings → Content Preferences. Members can switch to the tabbed view directly from the forums index view selector. Change layout views must be enabled for the new tabbed view option to appear.
The app adds a new forum index view option when forum view selection is enabled.
Tabs are generated dynamically from the existing forum index structure.
Specific Forums and Club Forums depend on forums already visible in the index layout.
Using too many tabs or categories may create multiple tab rows. Simpler setups usually provide the best user experience.

Community Activity

Community Activity is a front-end statistics and engagement dashboard for Invision Community Suite v5. It turns the data your community already produces into a polished, public-facing experience: growth trends, a year-long contribution heatmap, top members and content, cross-application breakdowns, personal scorecards, staff-only outreach tools, and automatic engagement notifications. It complements the built-in board statistics instead of replacing them, and it looks like a native part of your community from the first page load.
Live demo: Community Activity

A Real Dashboard, Not a Buried Stats Page
A polished single-page dashboard at a clean URL: /community-activity/
Live headline totals: members, content, reactions, and who is online right now
A full-year contribution Heartbeat, similar to a contribution graph, so momentum is visible at a glance
Sections animate in as you scroll, without slowing the page down
Light and dark mode aware, fully responsive, and motion-reduced for accessibility
Your statistics stop being an admin afterthought and become a destination.

Community Insights at Every Angle
Growth Trends: a multi-line chart of content, members, active members, and reactions, with instant 7, 30, 90, and 365 day range switching
Activity Patterns: when your community is most active by hour of day
Community Mood: how members react, with a positive, neutral, and negative sentiment split
Content Mix: what is being created across your community month by month
Content by Area: a breakdown across Forums, Gallery, Downloads, Blogs, and more
Top Members, Top Topics, and Busiest Forums: quick views of what and who is driving activity
Records and Milestones: all-time high-water marks plus a celebratory Year in Review
Everything is permission-aware, so members only see content they are allowed to see.

A Personal Scorecard for Every Member
The You tab turns participation into something members care about:
"You are more active than X percent of members"
Personal milestone badges: first topic, ten replies, one hundred posts, best answer, and one-year anniversary
A friendly engagement level, from Quiet Reader up to Community Driver
Your rank this week, posts this month, most-viewed topic, most-reacted content, and your contribution breakdown
Every member gets a reason to come back and watch their numbers climb.

Smart Staff Tools That Drive Retention
When a moderator or admin opens the dashboard, a staff-only sidebar appears with practical, one-click actions:
Needs Attention: unanswered topics, retention signals, first posts with no reply, and cooling-down forums
Reach Out: welcome new members, win back quiet ones, catch power members who are slipping away, and congratulate anniversaries, each with a quick message action
Spotlight: rising stars and members who are one or two posts away from a milestone
Spot the people who need a nudge before you lose them, and recognize the ones carrying your community.

Automatic Engagement Notifications
Six built-in notification types keep members coming back:
Post of the week, personal milestones, activity streaks, weekly recap, ranking updates, and community milestones
Never about the past. Installing the app records the current state silently and only notifies on new activity, so nobody gets flooded with alerts about old events
You choose which types are sent community-wide
Members stay in control and can opt out of any type
They carry your site favicon, so they clearly feel like part of your community
Automated encouragement that never feels spammy.

Built to Be Fast and Self-Sufficient
Aggregate-first design with a daily background task, so the dashboard stays instant even on busy communities
A bundled charting library served locally, with no external dependencies
Builds up to a year of history automatically, so the Heartbeat and Growth charts have data immediately
A front-end widget with two layouts, sidebar and horizontal, for any block area
Native AdminCP settings, group-based access control, and an in-panel support page
No external services, no tracking, and no new personal data collected. It reads what Invision already stores.

Perfect For
Communities that want members to feel their own progress
Forums looking to boost retention and repeat visits
Staff teams who want actionable health signals at a glance
Any community that wants its statistics to feel like part of the site

Community Activity gives your community a living dashboard that members enjoy, staff rely on, and that runs itself. Take a look at the demo and see it in action.

Native Social Embeds (Facebook added etc)

Rather than replacing Invision’s own native embed support, the app works as a controlled enhancement layer. It improves how standalone social URLs are detected, rendered, cached, and handled when an embed cannot load.
Supported handling includes YouTube, Vimeo, Facebook, SoundCloud, Spotify, TikTok, and X/Twitter, with provider-aware logic instead of a one-size-fits-all approach.
The app focuses especially on better Facebook handling, including posts, videos, reels, watch links, share links, permalink/story links, and fb.watch short links.
If content is private, restricted, removed, unsupported, or unavailable, Native Social Embeds can show a clean fallback card with the original source link, rather than leaving users with a broken or empty embed.
Core features include:
Enhanced native social embed handling
Provider-specific embed logic
Cleaner standalone URL detection
Responsive native-looking embed cards
Lazy loading support
Optional click-to-load embeds
Visible fallback cards for failed embeds
Original source-link preservation
Advanced Facebook link handling
Embed result caching for performance
Failed-embed caching to reduce repeat checks
Per-post and per-page embed limits
AdminCP provider controls
Cache and fallback settings
Diagnostics for embed status and failures
Native Social Embeds is built for communities that want social media content to feel more polished, reliable, and naturally integrated, while keeping administrators in control and avoiding broken embed experiences.
More unsupported native social embeds will be added whenever possible, without an increase in price. This resource will stay locked in at the price of $15.
I am happy to listen to feedback, suggestions and offer help via the support topic.

Docs Manager

Docs Manager is a full knowledge-base and documentation application for Invision Community Suite v5. It lets you write, organize, publish, and maintain documentation directly inside your community, complete with 13 selectable front-end designs, automatic tables of contents (sticky by design), revision history, reader feedback, member contributions, and deep IPS framework integration including native search, profiles, notifications, reactions, and sitemap support.
A demo can be found here:
https://administrata.net/docs/
Choose Your Look: 13 Front-End Layouts
The biggest thing that sets Docs Manager apart is choice. Pick the entire reading experience from the AdminCP with one setting:
documentation (default · sidebar + sticky TOC) · explorer (VS Code / IDE) · finder · notion · split · terminal · blueprint · notebook · accordion · apiref · readme · tui · mindmap
Every layout applies across the whole app - index, collections, categories, and document pages. Each one is fully responsive, and is built entirely around your theme’s variables.
Your docs don’t look like a forum add-on.
They look like a product.
Structure & Organization
Collections → nested categories → documents
Drag-and-drop ordering for documents and categories in the ACP
SEO-friendly nested URLs
Per-collection navigation trees with subcategory nesting
index page with Featured, Popular, and Recently Updated sections
Organize a 5-page guide or a 500-article knowledge base with the same clean structure.
The Document Page
Each document includes:
Automatic table of contents generated from headings, with a configurable minimum
Previous / Next navigation within a category
Related Documents, either hand-picked or using smart category fallback
“Was this helpful?” feedback with accurate up/down counters
Optional guest voting
Reactions and Follow
Full revision history with configurable retention
Permission-gated Actions menu: edit, feature, hide, move, change author, delete
Deep IPS Framework Integration
Docs Manager is built on \IPS\Content\Item, so it behaves like first-class IPS content:
Indexed in native IPS Search and the Activity / Discover stream
A “Documentation” tab on member profiles, plus entries in /profile/X/content/
Automatic XML sitemap inclusion
Notifications for new documents, updates to followed docs, and reader feedback
Reactions, Follow, and moderation states handled the IPS-native way
Member Contributions
Let your community help write the docs safely:
Front-end submit and edit forms
Draft → Published workflow, with optional auto-publish per group
Granular group permissions: create, edit own / any, delete own / any
Per-group daily submission rate limits
Every edit automatically snapshots a revision
Reader Engagement
Helpful / Not helpful feedback, unique per member and guest IP
Reactions on documents
Follow documents and categories for update notifications
Comments are deliberately not part of Docs Manager. Documentation thrives on structured feedback and revisions, not threaded replies.
Software Marketplace Bridge
If you also run Software Marketplace, link the two together:
Attach a documentation article to any software item, where it appears as a button in the item sidebar
Show a “Related Software” card on the document, above related docs
One-to-one linking, kept in sync both ways
The setting only appears when both apps are installed
Built-in Widgets
Docs Manager includes 5 layout-aware widgets:
Featured Documents
Popular Documents
Recently Updated
Category Navigation
Documentation Search
Each widget is styled to match the active design.
Powerful Admin Control Panel
A full IPS-native ACP experience:
Node-based Collections and Categories with permissions
Document management: approve, feature, hide, move, change author, delete
Drag-and-drop reordering
Configurable layout, TOC, feedback, index, and revision settings
Document-count recount task to keep totals exact
Perfect For
Product and app documentation
Help centers and knowledge bases
Developer docs and API references
Internal team wikis
Guides, tutorials, and onboarding
Release notes and changelogs
