Our goal is to get this into our internal production environment by early next week. If everything looks good, we would likely roll out at the end of next week. But there is always the chance we'll run into issues and need to iterate on fixes.

We rolled out an integration with FreeConference.com today. It allows up to 10 people in audio with screenshare, and up to 3 people on video.


We will be continuing to make improvements to the integration, but I'm marking this particular entry as "completed". I'm sure additional Ideas will surface related to conference calls.

We now have the code in our development environment to allow the Admin to control the Member user role. The options are:
  • Don't allow members to create Forums
  • Don't allow members to create Teams
  • Don't allow members to invite Guests

We are going to make another tweak to the way the Home/End keys work. The chat message box always has focus on that view. People had asked to be able to page up/down in history with the Home/End keys. However, now that we have done that, there are lots of complaints about using the keys within the text box.


Our "tweak" is to add logic to go to top/bottom of the message box if there is text in it. If there is no text in the message box, then we will scroll the chat history up/down.

Our next update will have an Administrative option to hide email address from the User Profile, but there are still cases where an email address could show up or be accessed by the APIs, so we won't be marking this as completed just yet.

We have reviewed and definitely plan to implement the "Mark as new" or "Mark as unread" option now, regardless of the status of the "Remind me" feature. We looked into implementing it for the next update, but there are a couple of issues we need to work out first to make sure we don't impact the automated notifications and highlighting of the tabs.

As Andreas pointed out, we do have a request for grouping of teams and forums. That will be tied to a significant overhaul of the navigation bar which we have not been able to schedule just yet. But it is definitely still on our list to work on before the end of the year.


We are looking at a shorter-term upgrade that would introduce a "Favorites" bucket where you could select a set of users, forums and teams to keep at the top of the nav bar. However, it sounds like that won't satisfy your needs for this use case.

Ok, we got the Notification Center integration rolled out on Friday. Do Not Disturb mode silences the bounce. I'll put in another feature request for a user preference to control the bounce in general, rather than only cutting that out for Do Not Disturb.

Hi Austin,

Ryver uses a form of markdown to do formatting of messages. Our markdown support has been expanded to be very similar to what github uses, with placing text between asterisks resulting in "emphasis" (italics) of the contained text:
https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet#emphasis


We typically see developers making extensive use of single `back-ticks` for inline code (or anything else you want to keep unformatted), or triple back-ticks for code blocks: https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet#code


So in your case, if you were to type `5.1.*, 5.5.*, 6.0.*`, you would find that it keeps all of the *, and highlights that block in gray.

Shaun - I think what you're suggesting would work out well within our current UI constructs. For the time being, I expect comments on a post to continue to be only one level deep, relying on block quotes for replies. But we can look into a "promote" option like we have in Chat that would allow you to promote a particular comment to a new post, thus starting a new thread.
