Blog Entry Reading Time

Blog Entry Reading Time displays an estimated reading time on each entry, so members can instantly see how long it may take to read the full entry from start to finish. The estimate is calculated using the entry’s entire content (including comments) and is shown directly on the entry page.
Settings
This app includes flexible configuration options:
Cache Expiration Time – controls how long reading time values are cached.
Words Per Minute – adjust the reading speed used for the calculation.
Allowed Groups – choose which member groups can see the reading time.
Smart Cache Invalidation
To keep the estimate accurate, the cache is automatically rebuilt whenever the entry is updated:
A new comment has been added
A comment is deleted
A comment visibility state changes (hidden/unhidden)
This keeps reading time accurate at all times without slowing your community.

Members Page

The Members Page is a lightweight and functional app for Invision Community 5 that restores the tab that displays a list of all users, missing in IPS5. Since ICS5 no longer has a "Members" page by default, this app re-introduces it in a modern, streamlined format.
This gives your community a clear, easily accessible member list that allows users to find each other faster, browse profiles, and build greater engagement with the service.

(DP5) Single Use License Keys

A powerful extension for Invision Community's Commerce module that enables the sale of pre-generated license keys - keys that were created externally by a third-party system or software vendor.
The Problem It Solves
By default, Commerce generates random license keys at the moment of purchase, with no control over their format or value. This makes it impossible to sell keys generated by external systems - meaning software vendors, game developers, and SaaS providers are forced to use meaningless random strings instead of their own license infrastructure.
How It Works
You upload a pool of keys to the application (manually or via import), assign them to a specific Commerce product, and after a successful purchase the system automatically assigns the next available, unused key from the pool to the buyer. Each key is single-use - once assigned to an order, it can never be issued again.
Example Use Cases
Selling game activation keys (e.g. Steam keys or keys for your own game)
Distributing software licenses (e.g. plugins, themes, desktop applications)
Selling access codes to external platforms or SaaS services
Distributing coupon or access codes generated by an external loyalty system
Providing API keys or access tokens from third-party systems

Key Benefits
Full control over key format and value, automatic delivery upon purchase, protection against key reuse, and seamless integration with existing license generation infrastructure.
Upgrading from version 4.x to 5.x
Before proceeding, you must create a full database backup. This is mandatory - without it, you will not be able to verify data integrity after migration or restore your data if something goes wrong.
Follow these steps in order:
Install version 5.x - do NOT uninstall version 4.x first
Go to AdminCP and verify that your license keys are visible in the new version
Check that all data has been migrated correctly
Only after confirming the data is intact, uninstall the old 4.x version

The new version will automatically migrate your existing data during installation, but the above order of steps must be strictly followed.
Important: I am not responsible for any data loss resulting from incorrect upgrade procedures, skipping the database backup, or failure to follow the instructions above. You use this application and perform any upgrades at your own risk.

Extra Footer Links Plus

As with the original plugin, you can not only add as many links as you want to your footer in no time at all, but you can now also choose whether they should be displayed before or after the standard links. Optionally, the extra links can be disabled in the mobile view to save space.
The really big innovation in this application is that you can now add social profiles too. You can choose which icon to use for this, as well as the background color when you hover over it.
So you could say you get two add-ons for the price of one, if it weren't free anyway

Monthly Awards

Monthly Awards lets you run structured, recurring awards like Member of the Month, Site of the Month, or Post/Topic of the Month without spreadsheets, manual threads, or constant admin work.
Everything runs on a clear cycle. Submissions open, voting starts, winners are selected, rewards are handed out, and the next month is ready to go.
If you want recognition, engagement, and friendly competition that actually sticks, this app does the heavy lifting for you.
A demo of this can be found here on Administrata
Why this app exists
Communities thrive when people feel noticed.
Monthly Awards gives you a simple but powerful way to:
highlight great members
reward quality content
encourage participation
create recurring events people look forward to
It works just as well for public contests as it does for internal staff or team recognition.
Award programs that fit your community
Create as many award programs as you want, each with its own purpose and style.
You can run:
Member of the Month to reward helpful or active members
Content of the Month for posts, images, downloads, or any community content
Site of the Month to showcase member websites or projects
Each program has its own description, images, rules page, and schedule, so everything is clear and easy to follow.
Featured programs can be highlighted on the awards homepage to draw attention.
Automatic monthly cycles
Every award runs on a repeating monthly cycle with clear phases:
pending
submission
voting
completed
Phases move automatically based on dates, so you are not babysitting the system every month. You can still step in manually if needed.
Each cycle can have its own theme, prizes, and statistics, making every month feel fresh instead of copy-paste.
Simple submissions for members
Members can submit entries in ways that make sense for each award:
nominate another member
submit their own website or project
link to forum posts, gallery images, or other content
Entries support images and rich descriptions, so submissions feel polished instead of rushed.
Members can manage their own entries, and nominated users are notified so nothing goes unnoticed.
Voting that feels fair and fun
Voting is designed to encourage participation without chaos:
vote for one entry or multiple entries
optional anonymous voting
real-time vote counts
notifications when entries receive votes
This makes feature contests, content awards, and popularity-based recognition feel transparent and engaging.
Clear winners and permanent history
Winners can be selected automatically by vote count or manually if needed.
You can award:
first, second, and third place
multiple winners
tied positions
Every win is saved permanently. Past winners are never lost, making it easy to build a real history instead of resetting every month.
Rewards that actually matter
Winning an award should feel good.
Winners can receive:
badges
reputation points
group promotions
store credits
custom or digital prizes
Rewards are handed out automatically when winners are chosen, so there is no follow-up work or forgotten promises.
Prize pools for bigger contests
For giveaways and larger events, you can build prize pools with:
multiple prize types
limited inventory tracking
position-based prizes
random weighted selection
This is perfect for sponsor giveaways, digital keys, or seasonal competitions.
Announcements and notifications
Members stay informed without needing to hunt for updates:
new cycle started
submissions open
voting open
reminders before deadlines
winner announcements
prizes won
Announcements can also be posted automatically to your forums, keeping activity visible and driving traffic.
Leaderboards and recognition
Recognition does not stop at one win.
The app includes:
yearly leaderboards
per-program rankings
total wins and votes received
historical browsing of past years
This turns awards into long-term motivation instead of one-off events.
Profile integration
Members get a dedicated awards area on their profile showing:
awards won
prizes received
win and vote statistics
earned badges
It becomes a visible status symbol, not just a forgotten badge.
Widgets for visibility
Show awards across your community with widgets like:
active awards
awards currently in voting
recent winners
hall of fame
featured program
This keeps awards visible instead of hidden in a menu.

Monthly Awards lets you run structured, recurring awards like Member of the Month, Site of the Month, or Post/Topic of the Month without spreadsheets, manual threads, or constant admin work.
Everything runs on a clear cycle. Submissions open, voting starts, winners are selected, rewards are handed out, and the next month is ready to go.
If you want recognition, engagement, and friendly competition that actually sticks, this app does the heavy lifting for you.
A demo of this can be found here on Administrata
Why this app exists
Communities thrive when people feel noticed.
Monthly Awards gives you a simple but powerful way to:
highlight great members
reward quality content
encourage participation
create recurring events people look forward to
It works just as well for public contests as it does for internal staff or team recognition.
Award programs that fit your community
Create as many award programs as you want, each with its own purpose and style.
You can run:
Member of the Month to reward helpful or active members
Content of the Month for posts, images, downloads, or any community content
Site of the Month to showcase member websites or projects
Each program has its own description, images, rules page, and schedule, so everything is clear and easy to follow.
Featured programs can be highlighted on the awards homepage to draw attention.
Automatic monthly cycles
Every award runs on a repeating monthly cycle with clear phases:
pending
submission
voting
completed
Phases move automatically based on dates, so you are not babysitting the system every month. You can still step in manually if needed.
Each cycle can have its own theme, prizes, and statistics, making every month feel fresh instead of copy-paste.
Simple submissions for members
Members can submit entries in ways that make sense for each award:
nominate another member
submit their own website or project
link to forum posts, gallery images, or other content
Entries support images and rich descriptions, so submissions feel polished instead of rushed.
Members can manage their own entries, and nominated users are notified so nothing goes unnoticed.
