Administrators Jon Erickson Posted August 20, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted August 20, 2022 We will do our best to preserve your data as we add new updates and fix bugs but we cannot make any promises. Up to this point we have not had to wipe anyones data. Quote Owner Deschutes Design Group LLC email | jon@deschutesdesigngroup.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benality[3SFG] Posted September 2, 2022 Share Posted September 2, 2022 Thanks! Got it.. looks great!  I have something I am looking to solve for and I hope this might be able to do it. Currently, we track two types of "XP". One for community activity, basically messages and time spent in Discord voice channels. And we have another XP for "Milsim" XP. This is earned by attending milsim events, such deployments, events etc. Currently, the activity points are tracked by a bot and the milsim points are added manually into a google spreadsheet. We reset the points in Discord and update the spreadsheet manually. Any chance something like this is road mapped with PERSCOM? I know IPB perscom has promotion points, which doesn't fully cover the need. I could meet with you and discuss this further and a possible solution I see for it.. I almost went as far as building something but quickly realized this would require a big lift for something that is a bit edgy on the use case. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jon Erickson Posted September 9, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted September 9, 2022 Absolutely - I can for sure seem some time of point system to assign users based on events/merit/achievements. This is not immediately in the development pipeline as we have several more things to work on. Thanks again for pointing these things out.

Benality[3SFG] Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 With this new release, does it mean that PERSCOM for IPB will no longer be supported? I understand there were talks of moving it to open-source. Just want to get an idea on what to expect moving forward.  Thanks Jon! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Benality[3SFG] Posted September 18, 2022 Share Posted September 18, 2022 Specifically asking due to to IPB upgrading to PHP 8.0+ and requiring this. PERSCOM however throws a compatibility error. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jon Erickson Posted September 18, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted September 18, 2022 Not at this time. We are currently still supporting Invision. We have an update submitted and waiting for approval. In the future, we suggest not updating your Invision core software until your applications support the new version to avoid errors/issues. These are the most common support tickets we deal with. Thanks!

USMCx Titus Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Hi Jon, I have looked into PERSCOM in the past but decided not to purchase it due to in my opinion the high prices with invision, However I have a few questions about the new standalone. I have looked at different communities using this on invision and noticed they are able to create multiple rosters and have different types of assignments ex: Combat Duty Assignments and Administrative Duty Assignments, as well as multiple categories under service records such as discharges, enlistment etc. Will not only the above features mentioned but I'm hoping majority of the features with the invision version eventually become available with the standalone?

Administrators Jon Erickson Posted October 18, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted October 18, 2022 Yes, every feature that is in the invision package will also be available in the standalone package. We are still currently actively developing so many features haven’t been released yet - but short story, the standalone product will be at minimum what invision can do, but will be much more. Quote Owner Deschutes Design Group LLC email | jon@deschutesdesigngroup.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMCx Titus Posted October 18, 2022 Share Posted October 18, 2022 Thats amazing to hear. Is it possible that forums could be a unreleased feature? allowing for communication across the system Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jon Erickson Posted October 19, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted October 19, 2022 We will not be entering the forum world as that is not the mission of the software. There are several solutions out there that work just fine for forums. We may look into how we can integrate with them, but PERSCOM will never have forums in of itself. Hope that makes sense.

USMCx Titus Posted October 19, 2022 Share Posted October 19, 2022 Yea that makes sense. Will there eventually be a timeline on when the standalone will be fully functional? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jon Erickson Posted October 20, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted October 20, 2022 Yes, there will be eventually a timeline - hopefully soon! Quote Owner Deschutes Design Group LLC email | jon@deschutesdesigngroup.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
USMCx Titus Posted November 30, 2022 Share Posted November 30, 2022 Just checking in, anything new on that timeline? Also looks to be some new features. Looking good! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Administrators Jon Erickson Posted December 1, 2022 Author Administrators Share Posted December 1, 2022 No definitive timeline set yet. Still trying to build out core features as you can see them slowly populating. Thanks.

k.cavazos Posted January 16 Share Posted January 16 With the standalone software in the cloud, I have a few questions: Â 1) we just purchased the license for invision and paid for a month with them to test this out. It is really expensive. with this system, are we able to just link this to an external site outside of the invision platform? Like it would just be a link to the cloud services? 2) what about the data we have entered. We have spent hours creating things and having people sign up. how will that translate over? 3) the money that was paid for the license to have it put on Invision, is that the same, or can that go to the purchase of the cloud product? Â thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not quite sure what you are asking. Can you rephrase? 2. We will make a way to transfer your data from PERSCOM with Invision to PERSCOM.io. 3. No these are two separate products with completely different billing systems. Most people will choose one or the other. There won’t be a reason you need both. Quote Owner Deschutes Design Group LLC email | jon@deschutesdesigngroup.com Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
