Maybe I am missing something but I don't see a button in the post editor that toggles between rich text and raw/HTML format? Can I add this somehow?

Good day everyone, I am trying to insert notes in some of custom pages I am building. I also need to insert nice CSS quotes when I post in my forum but I can't find a way to do it. I currently use the Quote option in CK Editor to make a sentence stand out, which is 'fine' but then I always see Quote next to the gray text, but it's not a quote that I am writing but a note. I would like to create notes to explain things better whenever I post, something like the attachment. Is there a way to do that? I want to create a similar style to quite certain text and make it stand out within reading Quote next to it. Wordpress' quotes work great and it only adds th…

I am hitting a roadblock upgrading my apps/plugins to 4.5 from 4.4 (already install). I do not want to delete the app (losing everything and rebuild again). When trying to download the file manually, there's no options for 4.5. Any way we can let manual upload to be transferred to marketplace? I'm stomped.

I know very little about Font Awesome, I would be interested in knowing more about application of FA within the IPS ecosystem. I would specifically like to know if or how IPS is currently natively supporting FA in 4.5? I would enjoy having the ability to use the FA on various icons across my sites. From the little I know about FA in IPS is the below: Searching in Admin Panel gives zero search result on 'awesome' There is a 3rd party plugin to introduce icon in front of usernames There is a 3rd party plugin to include FA in forum icons FA are free in its basic icons package (?) - and I assume the above apps operate with the free package F…

I notice that a theme I'm using was updated a few hours ago in the marketplace fixing some issues yet when I open the marketplace in the ACP and click on the updated file, I get this: I've run the support tool and it says everything is in the green - I've run the applications check for updates but still no mention of this updated theme. I can't download it because I'm told to do this through the ACP. It would be helpful if there was a 'check for installed updates' button so updates are recognised. Any help would be appreciated. With thanks

Hi All, Just wondering if there is a way I can increase the timeout for AdminCP sessions? Or at least stop it from prompting to input the 2FA Code every time you login on the same device? I ticked the "Do not ask again for the rest of the session" checkbox, but the sessions seem to be quite short.

On my site I am using CloudFlare for SSL, however on certain pages such as threads themselves, it shows not secure despite having the CloudFlare signature. On my homepage, though, it shows that the site is secure. Any ideas as to why this is happening? Thanks in advance for any help. 🙂 EDIT: Solved.

How do you change the layout of the mini profiles? Can they be moved to above each post for instance? Or can the pips be removed, but the ranking stay?
