On January 12, 2022, Mozilla released the updated version 96.0 of the Firefox browser . This causes a log-in error with ipernity .

If you prefer to overcome the log-in problem with Firefox, you can use the following workaround, which was published by Boarischa Krautmo : ♦…

Good news for you: we've just solved some annoying problems. You should now be able to add photos to groups and albums without any problems. And by the way, the unwanted photos from M. Williamson posted to your groups and albums have been removed (and M. Williamson has won a Club subscription for this inconvenience!). For those who are interested in the reason of the bug we had: it's about a 16 bits field which should have been a 32 bits one. Overflow! Something like the Y2K bug :))…

As announced earlier , we have just made some improvements concerning the suggestions to add photos and docs to groups. The point is to bring better visibility to group suggestions and at the same time give better control to (the owners of the content, visitors and group administrators). A. You now have the choice between: - forbid group suggestions in your space: in this case the "suggest a group" button [1] will not be displayed in your space for your visitors - allow your visito…

IGA2019 - Report of the CEO IGA2019 - Rapport du CEO IGA2019 - Bericht des CEO

Dear members and friends of ipernity, 1. Outreach support needed (advisory position). For our club to have a good future, it needs to be better known. Therefore, we need to promote ipernity. There are many ways to do this. Some of them have already been put in place. But we need someone who has a little time to keep these activities alive. New ways of promoting ipernity could also be found. Advisors would coordinate with the team, but have autonomy to run their own projects. There is…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! 1) We are glad to inform you that we have found an external IT service provider for the maintenance and further development of our website. A priority kick-off meeting has already taken place.

You c…

ipernity is proud to enable the first social mashup of the brand new Google Translate API. Members and visitors can now request "on the fly" translations of posts, comments, discussions, descriptions, iperMails... written in foreigner languages*.   Translation is made from/into 23 languages*. Of course, automated translation is not perfect but we are convinced it brings ipernity members and visitors a real added value for a global understanding. Thanks to this new feature, ipernity bec…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! The problem with the PayPal module will be solved on Monday. It is an example of the problems that can occur when the operating software is not updated for 5 years. In this case security and encryption algorithms were out of date. It was our new IT service partner innovations ON who identified this as the cause of the error. So it was not any fault or bug in the ipernity software. Today, 1 July, we went through all the steps required to upda…

Dear members and friends of ipernity, 1. Picture-in-picture (PiPs) in lightbox. The full screen 'Lightbox view [z]' now displays PiPs. It does not allow you to edit your own PiPs, but the feature is designed to help you be aware of PiPs when viewing other people's photos. The outline rectangles appear as you move the mouse, and then fade out when you stop moving the mouse. This is unlike the main photo page where they are always visible when the mouse is over the photo. The recta…

[EN] Dear members and friends of ipernity! Some of you may have noticed that membership renewals via Skrill are not possible any more. We tried everything to keep this payment option. However on 3 January 2018 Skrill made the decision to terminate services with IMA without notice or reason. We believe the decision was made because of volume requirements. It is common that other customers of Skrill suffered the same inconveniences. We are now exploring possible alternatives and their fea…
