Related Topics Related Topics — suggestions that understand what a topic is aboutInvision Community can already show related content. It matches on tags. That means it works exactly as well as your members tag things, which on most communities is somewhere between patchily and not at all — and when everything in a forum carries the same three tags, "related" degrades to "everything". This matches on meaning. It reads each topic, turns it into a vector, and compares topics by what they are actually about. No tags required, and no tagging discipline to enforce. A real example from testing. A topic about a workflow-automation app for Invision matched a topic about an automation extension for a completely different forum platform, at 79%. Different forum, different category, no tags in common. Nothing tag-based could ever have found that. Two ways to show itAutomatically A "Related discussions" list appears below the posts on every topic. No block placement, no template editing. As a block A placeable widget for your sidebar, if you would rather choose where it goes. It only appears on topic pages. Use either, or both. It tells you when it has nothing to sayThis is the part most "related content" features get wrong. If nothing clears your similarity threshold, nothing is shown at all — no empty box, no heading over a blank list, no five tenuous suggestions padding it out. Silence is the honest answer when nothing is related. You tune it against your own content, not a guessThere is no threshold that is right for every community, and this application does not pretend otherwise. On a focused forum — where most topics are broadly the same kind of thing — even unrelated pairs score in the sixties. On a varied one the gap is much wider. So the settings screen shows real matches from your own topics with their real scores, including the ones currently falling below your threshold and greyed out. You pick your number by looking at your own content. That takes about a minute and it is the difference between suggestions people click and suggestions they learn to ignore. Costs, stated plainlyYou need an embeddings API key — Voyage AI or any OpenAI-compatible provider. One API call per topic, once. Editing a topic only re-embeds if the text actually changed, so fixing a typo costs nothing. Embedding models are inexpensive. A few thousand topics is small money, but it is not zero and you should know that before you install. Already running my AI Assistant? One switch and this borrows its provider, key and model, so you manage one key and one bill. Built to stay out of the wayNothing blocks posting. Indexing happens on the background queue. An outage at the embeddings provider means new topics wait their turn, never that members cannot post. Permissions are respected. A topic a member cannot open is never suggested to them. Changing the model is safe. Different models produce different vector sizes; mismatched entries are skipped rather than compared, so you get fewer results instead of confident nonsense. Rebuild and they come back. No core files are edited. Upgrading Invision Community will not break it.

Font Awesome — Pro icons and kits Font Awesome — use the icons you already pay forInvision Community ships Font Awesome 6 Free and gives you no way to change it. If you have a Font Awesome Pro subscription, none of it works here. If you want an icon added since 2024, it isn't there. This is a small, free application that fixes both. It costs nothing. There is no licence key and nothing to renew. If you use Kit mode you are using the Font Awesome subscription you already have — this simply lets Invision Community see it. Two modesMode What you get Font Awesome 7 Free 2,606 icons instead of 2,492 — 115 more than Invision ships. No account needed. Your Kit The full Pro set — around 68,000 icons across six styles, plus Sharp and Duotone if your plan includes them. Both load from Font Awesome's own CDN, not a third-party mirror. Kit setup is one fieldPaste your Kit ID and save. It accepts whatever you have to hand — the bare ID, the kit URL, or the entire <script> tag copied from your Font Awesome dashboard. There is a Test the connection button that tells you what actually loaded before you go looking at your site. Nothing breaksThis is the part worth understanding, because it is why the application is safe to install on a live community. Invision Community loads its own Font Awesome from a core template that offers no way to remove it. Rather than edit that file — which an upgrade would overwrite — this loads afterwards and takes precedence. That has a real benefit beyond upgrade safety. Font Awesome 7 dropped exactly one icon that existed in 6 (fa-vector-square). Because Invision's copy is still underneath, that icon keeps working. An application that replaced Font Awesome outright would have broken it silently on every site using it. The cost is about 70KB of stylesheet that goes unused. That is the trade, stated plainly. What you controlWhich mode — Free 7 or your Kit Which release of Font Awesome 7 Whether the AdminCP uses it too, or stays exactly as Invision ships it Turn it off at any time and you are back to stock, immediately RequirementsInvision Community 5.0 or newer (self-hosted) For Kit mode: a Font Awesome account with a published kit. Free plans have kits too. Outbound HTTPS from visitors' browsers to Font Awesome's CDN No core files are edited, no database tables are created, and nothing is stored except your settings.
