Yes, exactly. The dev folder is the “source” for the compiled application and that’s why it’s kept out of the finished build process. Unfortunately I don’t see an easier way as well. But your case is extremely rare and not everybody is trying to develop an application to work with another. Haha. As long as you are not developing the front end, you can keep the application out of IN_DEV when you’re developing - which is where most of the work happens.

Yes, I am referring to the REST API. As far as the source files, unfortunately, those are kept in-house and are not public, including the dev folder. It would give a user complete access to rip of PERSCOM and copy the application. Obviously, this probably would not be an issue but we have to draw the line somewhere. Yes, PERSCOM is 4.6 compatible. IPS Dev Toolbox is not even 4.5 compatible. Are you developing a custom IPB application or completely separate from IPB? As for the licensing error, no, you will not get an error if you are just using the development license. You will just be restricted in the amount of data that can be added to the application.

You will receive a licensing error once the cache expires (30 days) due to the installation path and URL not matching your license. I would highly suggest using the PERSCOM API that is built into IPB to consume the data you have stored on your live site.

We are excited to announce the release of our Single Sign On (SSO) application for WHMCS. Powered with Okta, Single Sign On with Okta allows your clients a seamless and secure login experience using only one set of login credentials.… https://www.deschutesdesigngroup.com/single-sign-on-with-okta-released-for-whmcs/

Great - we’ll add this to our development roadmap. Thanks!

PERSCOM has been officically updated and ready to support Invision Power Board 4.6. Head on over to the marketpalce to download and update your version. Invision Power Board is currently only in Beta so downloand and install at your own risk. Please make sure to make backups. https://invisioncommunity.com/files/file/9776-perscom-soldier-management-system/

Should be found in the personnel settings if I can recall right. I am not currently in front of a PC.

Matthew, I believe we have this fixed for you but for others, you must submit a support ticket and we will run a plug-in to switch the application from manual to marketplace. If you are upgrading/setting up a new installation of IPB, IPB will take you through a similar process.

Yes, that would happen as everything, fronted and a backend are under that module. I will look into it!

Yeah - no problem.

Can you just turn the module “off” under the IPB applications settings?

Yes, this has always been a plan to do! We’ve started the build on it already!

Glad to hear. Kinda comical how they have refused to fix this bug before there next major release. No hot fix or anything. Seems like an important bug to fix in my opinion.

@Ashton, check the service records settings. You can ignore status'/units there for their TIS service records. As for the supervisors, we are working on an organizational chart that will display your organization in the view of an org chart so you can see who all is under who.

Funny - 4.5.4.2 was released a month ago. I’m not sure why the date shows today. I did a update check as well and nothing is showing new for download. Looks like just a mess up on their documentation. They are getting ready to release 4.6 which will be a large release hence the time it is taking.

Hi @Royal Harper, the images are only used when you display the personnel files in categories versus a list. This is a setting you can change.

Thanks for the recommendations. I really like the recommendation to attach multiple personnel files to a member. As for the language strings, you can customize them to how you mentioned in your post. You will use the “translate” function that’s built into IPB under the languages section. You can then search for the strings you want to change and make the modification there.

Yes and yes! @Benality[3SFG]

Added the ability to search for soldiers using your custom fields now!

Nate, I am not sure what you are referencing in the attached image. Can you please add some context? Thanks!

No - nothing is ever hard coded. Does Ingrams last name contain CW3?

Gotcha - thanks. We’ve fixed it in our next release.

You can check their homepage under the Release Updates for a list of changes in their product releases.

We found a bug in IPBs core software that is causing this issue. We have submitted the bug and IPB staff have confirmed the bug and have stated it will be fixed in their next release.

Hey @Mason Lee, thanks so much for bringing all your ideas forward. After visiting your website, it appears you may be running IPB v4.4 and therefore do not have access to the new IPB marketplace? Without access to the IPB marketplace, you will not receive the latest PERSCOM updates. I say this because, the currently released version of PERSCOM includes several of the features you mention. For example, we have implemented a promotion points tracking system that does exactly as you mention. When awarding, entering records, qualifications etc, you can attach a pre-set number of promotion points to that entry. Each rank is then assigned a minimum amount of promotion points to achieve the rank. When the soldier has met the minimum amount of points, you are informed of the ability to promote them. All this is currently included in PERSCOM. You can also disable TIG tracking if you'd like and just use promotion point tracking. Second, we have also built in a "Notes" module that allows you to attach whatever content you'd like to each soldier. We envisioned this to be used for administrative tasks as you mention, to keep track of soldiers and "flag" them if you must. These notes can be categorized and grouped together for different tasks. They can also be hidden from the soldier and can only be seen by members you set, or it can be totally public. You choose. Hopefully these features tackle the vision you are imagining. Let us know if we can expand the current features even more!
