Topic Prefixes

Invision Community has tags. They’re great for discovery, but they’re not built for structure.
Topic Prefixes brings a classification layer to IPS v5: one clear label per topic, admin-defined, forum-scoped, and optionally required.

Admin Features (ACP)
Prefix Management
Create, edit, and delete prefixes
Set title, and display order
Define background and text colors
Add custom CSS per prefix
Enable or disable prefixes at any time
Live visual preview of each prefix directly in the ACP list
Forum Assignment
Assign prefixes to specific forums
Optional “All Forums” behavior (no assignment = available everywhere)
Per-forum “prefix required” toggle
Visual forum tree showing assigned prefixes at a glance
Display
Prefix Selector on Topic Create / Edit
Prefix Display in Topic Lists
Prefix Display in Topic View
Prefix Display on Forum Index

Prefix Filter Bar
Appears above the topic list within forums
Shows only prefixes used in that forum
Displays topic counts per prefix
One-click filtering
“Show All” button to reset the view
Styling System
Two-Tier CSS Architecture
Base styling via ipsBadge and ipsTopicPrefix
Per-prefix styling via ipsTopicPrefix--{id}
Inline colors for simple setups
Full custom CSS support for advanced designs
Final Notes
This app is intentionally not a tag replacement.
It’s a classification tool - for signaling intent, state, or type at a glance.
If you’ve ever wanted prefixes like:
Question / Guide / Tutorial
Solved / Open / WIP
Announcement / Feedback / Discussion
…this does exactly that.
Feedback, suggestions, and edge cases welcome 👍

Ban Member Devices

With the new moderator permissions, this application enables moderators to ban or unban members' devices.
Moderators can manage devices in two ways:
Member Profiles: A new tab in each member’s profile allows moderators to view and ban their devices.
Moderator Control Panel (CP): A dedicated tab displays all banned devices across the community.
Note:
IPS stores members' devices in cookies, so this resource may not be so accurate for advanced users, as they can clear their cookies and regain access to the board. It should be used in conjunction with the account banning.

AI-Assisted Moderator

AI-Assisted Moderator for Invision Community 5
Most moderation problems don’t come from bad intent.
They happen because members don’t read rules.
Someone posts, crosses a line without realising it, a moderator steps in, a warning is issued, and what could have been avoided turns into frustration or conflict. Often leading into members leaving your community.
AI-Assisted Moderator fixes that moment.
Instead of reacting after a rule is broken, AIAM gives members a friendly heads-up when they want to post. If a post may go against a rule, the member sees a short notice explaining which rule it relates to and why. They can edit their post or continue anyway.
No blocking. No punishment. No forced changes.
Just awareness before problems happen.
Why this works
Warnings create friction.
Guidance creates understanding.
When members are told before posting, most fix the issue themselves. That means fewer warnings, fewer reports, and a calmer moderation flow overall.
Moderators stay in control.
Members feel respected.
The community benefits.
What AIAM does
Proactively warns members before posting when content may violate a rule
Uses AI-powered analysis (OpenAI supported now, others planned)
Works in any language your community uses
Shows confidence levels (low / medium / high) to avoid unnecessary warnings
Displays friendly warnings inline
Links directly to the relevant rule
Lets members edit their post or dismiss the notice and continue
Optionally use keyword pre-filtering to reduce AI usage and cost
Supports custom rules with titles, descriptions, keywords, scope, and custom messages
Tracks usage, effectiveness, and rule triggers
Flags members who repeatedly ignore warnings, which you can then PM personally
Gives admins full visibility and control at all times
Limits to certain forums or user groups.
AIAM never enforces rules automatically. It assists - nothing more.
Analysis Method
Choose how posts are analysed. You can change this at any time.
Keyword Only (Free)
Uses rule keywords to detect possible issues. No AI involved and no cost.
AI Only (Best accuracy, highest cost)
Every post is checked using AI for maximum accuracy and better understanding of context.
Hybrid (Recommended)
Keywords filter posts first, then AI is used only when needed.
This keeps accuracy high while dramatically reducing AI usage.
In most communities, Hybrid mode cuts AI usage by up to 90%.
Confidence Threshold
Controls how strict AI-Assisted Moderator should be when deciding to show a warning.
This allows you to tune how cautious or relaxed the system should be.
Low - Very strict, catches subtle and borderline cases
Medium - Balanced and recommended for most communities
High - Lenient, only obvious rule issues are flagged
You can adjust this at any time to match your community’s culture.
Admin control
AIAM includes dedicated admin areas for full oversight:
Statistics: usage, costs, effectiveness, charts, and top triggered rules
Rules: create and manage community rules, keywords, scope, and messages
Logs: history with AI responses, confidence, cost, and user actions
Flagged Members: review members who repeatedly dismiss warnings, ability to send PM's.
Settings: all configuration options in one place
Cost & requirements
Costs apply only when AI is used.
Keyword-only checks are completely free.
With ChatGPT (GPT-4o-mini):
FULL AI mode: Around $0.03 per 1,000 offensive triggered posts
Small and medium communities usually spend a few cents per month
Hybrid mode makes this even cheaper by skipping AI when it’s not needed
You can set daily limits, cost limits, and alerts at any time.
Requirements:
An OpenAI (ChatGPT) API key

Security Question Password Mask

This tiny application simply turns the Security Question field into a password field, so whatever you type isn’t visible on screen.
Why this matters:
Even if “no one is supposed to see it,” it’s the same idea as hiding a password. For example, I record videos all the time, and the security answer would show up in the recording. Because of that, I used to disable Security Questions for my group altogether.
