    No updates have actually been made. I've simply checked the generated IPS 4.3 .htaccess for changes.
    The file is fully 4.3 compatible.

    Tutorial 1: Building A List of All Members
    Difficulty Level: Easy
    Time: 5 min
    Our first goal is to build a simple list of all members.  You will often want to display a list of all members so members can quickly find and connect with others.  
    Navigate to ACP > Members > Member Lists Click on + Create New Fill out the Settings tab: Title = "All Members" Description = "List of all members in my community sorted alphabetically" Visible = Everyone
    Settings tab
    Fill out the Member Criteria tab: Primary Groups = All Secondary Groups = Deactivated Members awaiting validation = No Avatar = No rule Content Count = [leave blank] Content Count = [leave blank] 
    Member Criteria tab
     
    Fill out the Output Options tab: Members per page = 24 Design = Grid Sort by = Display Name Sort direction = Ascending Feel free to turn ON / OFF any settings you want.  
    Output Options tab
    Click Save.  You should see "All Members" in the member list in the ACP.   As a final step, you will need to add a link to the Menu so your users can find the list:
    Navigate to ACP > System > Site Features - Menu Manager Click on Add Item Select "Member Lists" from the Menu Item Type, and then choose "All Members" from Configuration.   Click Save Menu Item.  Click Publish this menu.   Congrats!  With these easy steps, you've created your first member list, defined some basic settings and output options, and published the member list to your menu.  This will enable your members to browse through a directory of all members in your community!  You did a great job, and your members can connect and browse all of your other members.  

    Tomorrow, we'll explore some more advanced options in creating customized member lists, such as for gaming clans.

    I don't see much change either. Things did improve. It would be nice to expand and see where these issues are.
    Also, 89 requests seems rather high. I'll poke around with the url and see what I can find that can be done to help improve the speeds and such of your site and post again later, possibly editing this post.
    With what I see just taking a peek, turning this image linked below into a jpg will help reduce load times and file size. From 422KB to 37KB as a jpg when I tried with: http://image.online-convert.com/convert-to-jpg
    http://hoitajat.net/images/aihekuvat/etusivu.png Many things need image dimensions set, too which will improve your scores. gzip doesn't look to be enabled? Twitter looks to need an update to load asynchronously. Optimizing your images (pngs) and compressing them will also help reduce page size and improve load times.
    Page load time: 8.08s Total page size: 2.65MB Total number of requests: 89 A lot of the page needs optimizations and work, but the .htaccess did improve what it could a bit.
     
    I hope this helps you get your page optimized.

    This is a custom .htaccess to use on the IPS Community Suite Forums. It helps to improve your forums Google Page Speed and YSlow scores.

    I'm able to install fine on 4.0.2. Created a fresh install to test.

    Is the button not appearing? If so, you need to be in mobile/tablet though you do have ability to toggle 'Hide in desktop mode?' in System > Sharing > WhatsApp > Edit. It's set to off by default because WhatsApp Web didn't support sharing last time I checked.
    What's the error you're getting if that's not the issue?

    Well, I've seen quite a few requests for help in this forum now and I thought I'd gather a number of tools you can use to report your status. This will help others help you faster. :D That and additional ability to help yourself as well.

    Helpful information
    The following are information that's often crucial to diagnosing problems.
    What is the environment you are running your website from? IPB Hosting / Shared hosting / VPS / Cloud / Dedicated Server? If VPS/Cloud/Dedi, what are your cpu, ram and disk availability?

    Tools
    The following are tools you can run in order to gather further data. These can be run from ssh and is only accessible for vps, cloud and dedicated servers for linux distributions.

    top - Top processes (very useful for any scenario) | top is usually available in all linux OS distros by default.

    top (this will constantly output your server's general status as well as top processes, default in CPU usage order) top n -1 (same as above, but will output your first stat instead of constant loop) If you'd like more colourful version. There is also htop (usually not available by default. Can get here: http://htop.sourceforge.net/ or rpmforge ) iostat - Input/Output Statistics (very useful in diagnosing disk usage) | iostat is part of sysstat package.

    iostat (this will output general stats regarding IO) iostat -x 10 5 (this will output extra information for 5 times total with 10 second intervals. First stat is always "since boot" and after is since last report) sar - System Activity Reporter (Displays system performance over time) | sar is part of sysstat package

    sar mpstat - Multiprocessor Usage (Displays system stats in relative to CPU) | mpstat is part of sysstat package

    mpstat Apache Status (Outputs the apache status) | apachectl status, as name suggests requres apache to get the stats. You will also need to have a shell browser to run.

    apachectl status (This outputs the simplified current status) apachectl fullstatus (This outputs the detailed current status. Please be warned that this will list all users and their requests. So, you will want to remove any IP address and further private information) Connections

    netstat -an | grep :80 | wc -l (This lets us know how many people are connected to your server on port 80 [http]) Uptime (How long you've been up)

    uptime vmstat - virtual memory statistics (This is actually not related to virtualization. This is about your swap)

    vmstat free (Shows your memory statistics)

    free free -m (In megabytes) free -g (In gigabytes) beancounters (Shows your limits) | Only for those with VPS/Cloud systems

    cat /proc/user_beancounters ifstat (Gives live information about network usage on each network interface)

    ifstat iftop (Similar to ifstat, but per user and top behavior)

    iftop mysqltuner (Gives information and suggestions about your current mysql configuration) | Available at below address Available at: http://mysqltuner.pl/ You can run the mysqltuner with perl (chmod to 755 and run or call with perl) and type in your administrative mysql user id/pass. mysqlmymon Available at: http://mysqlmymon.com/ Similar to mysqltuner, but lot more information about everything else too! This is mostly meant to serve as an all-in-one tool. MySQL Workbench http://www.mysql.com...ucts/workbench/ This is a GUI tool that helps you administer, diagnose and plan. (Complete) Monitoring Solutions Nagios (Everything - heavy learning curve) http://www.nagios.org/ Cacti (Network) http://www.cacti.net/ vnstat (Much more simple network usage logger) http://humdi.net/vnstat/ Useful to Know Settings MySQL settings | Only if you have mysql The settings are often found at: /etc/my.cnf Outputting your current information will help others identify problems. Apache/HTTPD settings | Only if you have apache The settings are often found at: /etc/httpd/conf.d/httpd.conf If you have WHM/cPanel, please look inside WHM instead. Outputting your current information will help others identify problems. Nginx Settings | Only if you have nginx The settings are often found at: /etc/nginx/nginx.conf Outputting your current information will help others identify problems. PHP Information (information regarding your current php build) | Available only to PHP users... for obvious reasons. To get full php information, there are 2 easy ways. One, make a php file with the below contents and save.

    <?php phpinfo(); ?> Or via shell

    php -i



    I'll add more if people suggest other tools.

    Click on the WhatsApp icon after installing to share, then click the user/conversation in the app, and your text will appear. Edit the language strings to change the text.
