Currently I am trying to add a custom.css to make minor adjustments in the default theme appearance. But, whenever I try to add a custom.css, changes that I made for front end, also takes place in AdminCP (backend). What is proper way to add a custom.css so that only front end theme is effected by that custom.css? I have also tried adding new CSS File > Front > System with no success.

I'm seeing this here too, FWIW. Recently upgraded my community to IPS4 and my members (and myself) are getting bombarded with emails for every topic which is made and every comment which is posted in every forum (permissions are honored, thank god) without subscribing to forums or topics. This is happening to a member which has not visited or posted since July 2012 - that's almost 3 years ago, but suddenly he's getting a LOT of notification emails from the site. I don't know why. This is also happening here on IPS for myself. I log in every day and I have 99+ notifications from topics, bug tracker, etc, things I know I haven't followed. I just assumed this forum was …

I like a good deal of Pages and functionality like "edit source" options are there, just not obvious. These I couldn't find and was hoping someone might be able to help: Users adding header tags in their articles (instead of bolding text and changing font size.)Can you wrap text around an image? Right now images have no right/center/left align tags at all so no text wrapping.The meta description field is in the back end - can this option be made available to the user on the front end?Is there a way to set an article to have a featured picture? Was in IPS 3, not now.Is there a way to add a field for "excerpt text" that can be used for the article on the home page instead o…

I have a 2000 line tutorial created with HTML, and the reside in forum topics that are pinned, and closed to replies. I'm the only one that has HTML access. I made the conversion from 3.x to 4.0RC without a hitch. Now I'm testing the editor. IE11: Opening the topic to edit I select 'Source', the HTML that was displayed turns into one continuous post. This will make it extremely hard to edit. It appears the editor is not seeing and acting on anything in the HTML text for a line break, so it just puts all the text together. FF: Loading the same document into the editor, there is a completely different text output when I hit the 'Source' button. It is no where near correct i…

They were OK, I check the thread now and the previews have been squashed as below: I then edit the post and remove the spacing between each video to a single line and previews are now smaller, but correct ratio? Any changes between RC releases to cause this? Thanks.

People keep complaining that registration goes through but are automatically banned. Not sure as to why, I don't know if these people are known on the IPS Anti Spam servers or not, but they are okay posters. They don't spam. I don't get it, every new member is placed into that group. I looked at all the registration settings. Edit: By the way this is on 3.4.7
