4.2.1 Can't Use Default Theme Editor if Using Dark Background Unless I am doing something wrong, when you try to edit the 4.2 default skin's background to #000000 (all black), the frame of the forum will be black while the center portion of the forum remains white - perfect. Since the center part of the forum is white, you'll have to set the Base Text Color to #000000 black (or a dark colour), otherwise you won't see the post count, forum description, who started a certain post, etc. since they are against a white background. However, because you've set the Base Text Color to #000000 (black), now you won't see who started a post, the breadcrum navigation, u…

I upgraded from 4.1 to 4.2 and now it seems my themes are no longer compatible. On the forum, the author of a thread is overlapped by the number of pages and the page back/forward button doesn't seem to be working properly. Any thoughts

Hello all, I'm trying to add the CKEditor plugin Wordcount - but I'm having issues getting it to activate. I've installed it and the notification plugin through my ACP (and if I try to do it again it confirms that it is already installed) and I've double-checked that all of the files are on the FTP, yet neither of these are working. Am I missing a step to activate these plugins for my editor? Thanks!

I have a domain registered with Google Domains and set the name servers (DNS) according to the IPS Cloud instructions. Unfortunately this disables the Google email support. How can I setup email addresses on my domain? It seems IPS does not include this, so is there a way to adjust the DNS settings to allow it? EDIT: is email forwarding at least supported?

Hi guys, I upgraded today to 4.2 as many of you, and I am trying to fix the several little bugs that showed up due to our customizations. One of them is regarding custom blocks in the sidebar, available via Pages. Basically, any custom block gets a gray frame that I don't want, and I don't know how to fix this issue. With the new default layout, any block you add in the sidebar gets this gray frame and a lighter background, which didn't happen in the 3.4 series. See the attached screenshots. You will see that we have an empty frame where a banner that is not loading is located, and if you pay attention to the banner that was loaded, you will see that t…

I have just updated my forum to 4.2 and found quite large reaction icons: Digging a little bit deeper into it, I found, that the update didn't leave any "ipsReact*" CSS styles anywhere. So of course the reactions are not displayed properly. Question is: is there a chance to get the needed CSS styles posted here so that I am able to paste them manually? Many tanks in advance! Regards, Tom.

How do users add images to their blog posts? I do not see any kind of media manager within the WYSIWYG editor/toolbar. I would like them to be able to move the images around and position them in their post where they want them.

Hi, I want to give my users the choice to buy a single file or to buy a membership to get all files. I have created a membership product in commerce giving access to the files in the membership downloads section by upgrading them to premium members. My issue is that when I set a price on a file, that is in that membership section, the price doesn't show cause it is associated to premium members. I could duplicate all files in a new category but that seem like a pain and I got to upload the files twice when I upgrade. Anyone has a solution for that, I hope I was clear enough lol

Is there a way to force the updates to show up in the ACP? It's a lot easier to update that way than to download the whole package, upload it and run the installer.

The editor used to have a button to clear the text in 4.1. Was that removed in 4.2? A message sometimes comes up if data is cached, but users liked the ability to clear the editor if that message does not come up.
