If your community hosts meetups, workshops, conferences, or socials, Events is set to play a much bigger part in how you run them.

Events arrived in Invision Community 5.0 with venues, online meetings and simple event management. In Invision Community 5.1, it grows into an event platform with richer discussions, proper registration, guest lists, paid tickets and QR check-in, so organisers can run the whole thing without leaving the community.

More and more, community owners are looking for ways to connect their online space with what happens in the real world. We saw it with Quests, where giving members something to work towards drove real engagement, and now, we've overhauled Events to connect your community to events you run in person.

When someone registers, finishes a course, RSVPs to an event, or buys their first subscription, there's a short window when a well-timed email can make all the difference, such as a welcome, a next step, or a nudge towards the parts of your community they'd actually enjoy.

The trouble is that these moments happen constantly, at all hours, for every member on their own timeline. Following up on each one by hand doesn't scale, so most of them go unanswered.

Email Drip Campaigns solve that problem.

Topics can span years, and once the initial explosion of replies has passed, the topic lives on in local search and search engines for future viewers to discover and get value from.

Long ago, back in the dark ages, forums used the number of posts a member made and how long ago they joined to demonstrate trust and experience.

Is simply posting a lot and being a member for a long time the best way to know which community members are experts?
