Post subject: Icy Phoenix 1.0.5.5 Beta
Hi all,
I'm proud to release today the first beta of Icy Phoenix.

Some general info about Icy Phoenix.

  • What is Icy Phoenix?
  • Icy Phoenix is a CMS based on phpBB (an highly scalable PHP based Bulletin Board) plus many modifications and code integrations which add flexibility to the whole package. Icy Phoenix is a derivation of phpBB XS founded by Bicet and then developed by both Bicet and Mighty Gorgon.
  • What are the main features of Icy Phoenix?
  • Icy Phoenix has many features, most of them are listed in the Hacks List on this site, but the main ones are:
    • phpBB bulletin board and permission system
    • CMS functions allowing the creation of new pages and blocks (some of the functions are based on IM Portal)
    • Overall template integration among all site sections
    • Many ready to use features: Photo Gallery, Downloads, Knowledge Base, Links...
    • Multilanguage and multitemplate ready
    • Almost W3C compliant
    • Many others...

  • Is Icy Phoenix easy to install and upgrade from other platforms?
  • Icy Phoenix has its own setup procedure which is guiding the user trough the steps of the setup process. An upgrading file is provided to upgrade the package from standard phpBB and phpBB XS. Hopefully an upgrade procedure from any platform will be written in the future.
  • Does Icy Phoenix have many templates?
  • At the moment only three main templates (but with several multicolor variations) are available, but we are working to create new ones.
  • Is Icy Phoenix multilanguage?
  • English is the main language of Icy Phoenix, but it has been translated into other languages (alphabetical order): Catalan, Dutch, Galego, German, Italian, Serbian, Spanish... and more to come!


At the moment Icy Phoenix is in beta testing phase, what needs to be completed is:
  • Installation procedure testing in all environments
  • Latest UPI2DB integration
  • CTracker 5 testing
  • CMS permission level
  • Ice Template


This beta release is meant for giving you some flavour of what the Icy Phoenix is going to be, fixing the bugs and maybe obtain some good suggestions to be implemented in the final release... Even if this package is quite stable I would suggest you to install it on live environments only if you are quite good PHP and phpBB. During the beta testing period only a limited support (focused exclusively on fixing bugs) will be given on Icy Phoenix.

If you are trying to upgrade your existing sites to this release you should consider that the final release may not contain upgrading instructions from this beta. Remember also that the old upgrading instructions won't work fine because the structure of the package has been changed... You have been warned...

Thank you for your cooperation and a big thank you to the whole Staff for having helped me during this months of transition.

Special thanks to Artie, KugeLSichA, TheSteffen and z3d0 who have been upgraded to Admins here, thanks to their precious help.

Another big thank you to buldo, ThE KuKa and Tom who are Junior Admins and helped me so much too.

Hallo iedereen!,
Ik ben trots dat ik vandaag de eerste beta van Icy Phoenix kan uitbrengen.

Iets wat algemene informatie over Icy Phoenix.

  • Wat is Icy Phoenix?
  • Icy Phoenix is CMS gebaseerd op phpBB (een hooggeschaalde PHP gebaseerde Bulletin Board) + een aantal modificaties en code integraties wat een extra flexibiliteit en mogelijkheden toevoegd aan het gehele pakket. Icy Phoenix is een vervolg op phpBB XS gemaakt door Bicet en verder ontwikkeld door zowel Bicet als Mighty Gorgon.
  • Wat zijn de hoofdfuncties van Icy Phoenix?
  • Icy Phoenix heeft een heleboel functies, de meeste zijn opgenomen in de Hacks List van deze site, maar de belangrijkste zijn:
    • phpBB bulletin board en permissie systeem
    • CMS functies dat nieuwe pagina's en blokken toestaat (sommige functies zijn gebaseerd op die van IM Portal)
    • Volledige template integratie in alle site delen
    • Aantal functies die je kunt gebruiken: Foto Gallerij, Downloads, Kennisbank, Links...
    • Meer talen mogelijk en meerdere templates zijn aanwezig
    • Redelijk W3C compliant
    • Veel andere functies...

  • Is Icy Phoenix makkelijk om te installeren en de upgraden van andere configuraties
  • Icy Phoenix heeft een eigen setup procedure wat de gebruiker door de stappen van het setup leid. Een upgrading bestand is beschikbaar om te kunnen updaten van een standaard phpBB en phpBB XS forum. Hopelijk word in de toekomst mogelijk om van elke configuratie te updaten naar Icy Phoenix.
  • Heeft Icy Phoenix verschillende templates om te gebruiken?
  • Op dit moment zijn er drie templates beschikbaar (maar met verschillende kleurenvarianten), maar we zijn bezig om meerdere templates te creëren.
  • Is Icy Phoenix meertalig?
  • Engels is de hoofdtaal van Icy Phoenix, maar is ook vertaald naar andere talen (in alfabetische volgorde): Catalaans, Nederlands, Galego, Duits, Italiaans, Servisch, Spaans...en er komen meer!


Op dit moment zit Icy Phoenix in de beta-fase, wat moet er nog moet gedaan worden om het compleet te maken:
  • Installatie procedure testen in alle omgevingen
  • Laatste UPI2DB integratie
  • CTracker 5 testen
  • CMS permissie niveaus
  • Ice Template


De beta-release bevat alle dingen die Icy Phoenix inzicht zal hebben en wat het word, bugs oplossen en misschien met sommige goede suggesties worden er nog functie geimplementeerd in de final versie... Dit pakket is stabiel maar ik wil je adviseren het alleen te gebruiken in een openbare omgevind als je goed bent in PHP en phpBB. Gedurende de beta testperiode is er gelimiteerde ondersteuning (gefocust aan bugs oplossen) op Icy Phoenix.

Als je een bestaande website wilt updaten met deze release, je moet dan weten dat de final release geen update instructies bevat vanaf deze beta, Je bent gewaarschuwd...

Bedankt voor jullie medewerking en een hartelijk dank aan de hele Staff voor de helpende hand gedurende deze maanden van voortzetting van het project.

Speciaal dank aan Artie, KugeLSichA, TheSteffen en z3d0 wie nu zijn gepromoveerd als Admins hier, bedankt voor je goede hulp.

Andere personen die ik wil bedanken zijn buldo, ThE KuKa en Tom die zijn Junior Admins en hebben me ook goed geholpen.

the version mainly seems good to me by the express that goes and that to say that the CrackerTracker I see it that it works either the less by an error that an reported and I hope that they solve it in the future version and if that so that they are not published the CrackerTracker for this version which him lack is the Spanish translation single that but everything in Spanish not little so that since they do something does it or and nothing that good I am bad with English for that reason the use a translator

First of all I have to express my gratitude for what you guys have accomplished. The new name and template is absolutely stunning! I love it.

I'll download and beta-test as much as I can the next couple days. Right off the bat I ran into a small oddity; I clicked the 'post reply' button while not logged in, then after logging in I got this message (instead of being taken to the thread); "No post mode specified".

How do I verify that the TTF's are installed? Are you saying that the TTF's need to be installed on my machine locally? Sorry for such a n00b question.

Post subject: Re: Icy Phoenix 1.0.5.5 Beta
You can confirm via acp->info->gdinfo

Freetype Fonts Support: Yes
Freetype Link Type: with freetype

Sory, they were freetype not truetype


Round11 [ Wed 10 Jan, 2007 19:32 ]
Post subject: Re: Icy Phoenix 1.0.5.5 Beta
Version: bundled (2.0.28 compatible)
Freetype Fonts Support: Yes
Freetype Link Type: with freetype

That's what it says under my ACP. When I try to use the Avatar Generator, even here on this board, it will NOT change my current avatar. I can see the avatar I chose, but if I click Submit, it turns to a broken image on my site, here on this site it just keeps my avatar the same.
