I've been trying to enable the use of Font Awesome Icons for members, through a button in the Editor. It used to work perfectly in 3.4.x but not having any luck now. What changed? What I've been doing is I've added <link rel="stylesheet" href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.3.0/css/font-awesome.min.css">to Templates -> core -> front -> global -> globalTemplate and then added a new button for the editor. The button is Inline and should insert <i class="fa {option}"></i>I've tried disabling using an option and just using {content} directly... but then the changes do not save and revert back to the {option} variant. No idea what that's…

Hello everyone. I am currently hosting with RamNode, where I rent a DDoS-Filtered IP Address from "CNServers". I'm using Pagespeed & Memcached, where pagespeed caches it all in memcached. I am also using IP.Board & APC togheter (IP.Board 4.0 Gold btw) Sometimes, the board index takes any where between 1-4 seconds to load the first byte, until it actually load some content on the site. I have no idea why, my friends forums loads within 200-300ms, and we're both using CloudFlare. Hes running IP.Board 3.4 though. Any ideas what I can do to speed it up? I am caching 256MB of ram in Memcached & APC.. Server specs: - 1024MB ram - 4 Cores Intel E3 CPUs (3.3GHz+ …

I have migrated to version 4.0.1 with all backup jobs finished. My site is hosted on a semi-dedi server where version 3.4.7 worked flawlesly. The forum was super fast. Now, with version 4.0.1 deployed I can't say that I'm impressed with the speed of it. Sometimes it's OK, sometimes it's slow as hell especially when you click on the Home link button. On the other hand ACP of 4.0 is very very fast, it is as fast as the old forum was. Can I do anything to optimize it so the forum is fast at least as it was prior the upgrade.. Thanks.

Hi all, I am creating a custom site and (oddly enough) I need to completely disable the profile area of the software. Anyone know of a way to do this? Ideally I would like all the links to someones profile to redirect to a custom profile page outside of the forum but cant seem to get the .htaccess anywhere near working. Any help out there at all? Many thanks.

My users are saying that the forum is not remembering where they left off and is always taking them back to the first post in any thread? Is there a way to make it work like it in 3.4 or is that something that hasn't been implemented yet?

I submit a support ticket already but as I'm waiting I'm going to see if the community at large has had this issue too. I upgraded my community to 4.0.1 last night and everything seems to be working fine (except for a few things that I also submitted about but these have to do with Pages, not the forum) and now I can't post new topics. I can reply, just not create a new topic. Things I've already done: Verified Permissions Checked for errors in the logs (it's not generating an error at all). Verified that it's not just my account (tried from a member account as well as a moderator account). Went through IPS troubleshooter I only have one third party application at the mom…

Hi We plan to convert to IPB 4 several forums under punbb 1.3.4 We also know some large communities running punbb 1.3.4 planning to convert to IPB 4 So i have two questions : 1) the IPS4 converter will include punbb 1.3.4 ? (as IPS 3.4.7 did) 2) for a punbb community that we already converted to IPB 3.4.7 and then to IPB 4, will it be possible to add redirections from old topics to new ones ? or too late ? Tx !
