I really need to start saving up some cash so I could purchase a license for Invision 5! I really dig these new features, and it's always been a wonderful piece of software. Definitely worth the money for sure!

Hey @Matt M can skin creators put their options for skins in the skin editor?

These new features look great. A lot of forum webmasters will definitely fall in love with this new Invision Community 5 Beta.

You're very correct. It's the only forum software that I'm going to put side by side with XenForo software.

Ok looking through the fields creator for databases. I noticed that we are still lacking a "Star rating" option. Something I was kinda hoping to see. Can this still be added in or can it be modded in by a third party dev

It's a standard per-database option, you don't need a custom field for it.

Yes I get that, but what if you wanted to make like a "reviews" section in a Databse. you could give the users a star rating that would allow them to rate qualities of a product or a TV Series

I run an anime community, and Anime reviews are one of my things to offer. So lets take this for example

This is the editor panel where the review can be typed up.


This is the front end that all users can see. I just think having something like this would be cool if I have to find someone to mod it for me I can lol
