Hi, I upgraded to the 4.0.3 release and now I seem to have  symbols in posts. I had this before when I moved my database to a new host but resolved it by changing the encoding I think.

Hey guys, Before upgrading to 3.4.7 I had different functionalities that depend on the random feature - random article for the day, random quote of the day and few others. Since, we do not have such random option in Pages now, 4.0.3 version (I hope they will add it in the future versions), I need to do it manually. As I understand it, now I need to create a custom PHP block with code that connects to the Pages database and then shows the random article. I have no idea how to do that after the migration to 4.0. I even do not know how to do the simple thing of connecting to the Pages database. And I really need this because multiple functionalities after I upgraded to 4.0.3…

Perhaps i am just over-looking something or perhaps this was removed in 4.0, but with 3.4.x if you have a parent category in IP.Downloads, that uploading was disabled on, and you had subcategories, if you clicked on the parent category you would see the files in the sub category in desc order of recently updated. Was this removed in 4.0 or am i just blind and not seeing how to make this happen?

Is there a way to bypass moderation in IP4? We have a special group that is given out to select members that allow them to upload files without moderator approval, but there is no longer a bypass moderation option in the group perms for downloads on 4, just trying to see if there is a setting somewhere that still allows it. -RazorSEdge

Hi, the default theme includes the Open Sans font (at least in the CSS). Nevertheless, it seems that in my community the font seems nothing like Open Sans. I would say it is more like arial or something. Is there a problem or something we should do to make it really working?

Login to your ACP 2. Go to System > Apllications 3. Click the "Install" button 4. Select the TAR file from the unzipped archive and click "Install" But where do I put the Tar file in the FTP or whatever? I apologize, I'm very new to all of this.

So I set it to renew, set the price and set 30 days. I set the original package to 0 and have it include in the price. Now I had two purchases over night while I tried to figure out how to make it subscriptions and neither of them were subscriptions, just one time payments. How do I make it turn into a subscription?!

The blog application has errors (forgot to uninstall the thing before I upgraded the core to 4.0.4) now I'm locked out of Admin CP due to this 500 error caused most likely the blog (got Error logs from it). Don't know how to uninstall the blog app either without going to ACP. Is there a way to fix this? EDIT: Couldn't wait any longer for an answer so rolled back from a backup. Thank goodness the latest backup was hours ago. But for future reference, HOW can I disable an application without visiting ACP? If you can't get in to ACP due to any kind of error, you're screwed.
