1) Download section of this site

2) All programmers of Icy work hard for its security

3) We all hope there will be many updates (one is just in progress ). Usually they have always been easy to install.

4) From this site or contributors ones, look in templates section

5) Unless you are able to adapt them for Icy (and it's quite hard job) no, you can't use phpBB themes (there are a lot of differences)

6) Actually you don't really need many mods for Icy, since it is full of them. If you want you find some add on on this site. Otherwise, you can try to apply phpBB mods and adapt them to Icy, but you do this at your own risk and should know a bit what you are actually doing. Some mods for phpBB can easily be applied to Icy, some other need hard work and skills to make them work properly.
You can get themes as at point 4)

7) I don't be sure... but looking at the modifications that will be done I think there will be some changes...

The beta has not support given in this board.
I´ll complete vortex post:

For updating from phpbb:


There are changes done in templates from 1.1.0.15b and 1.0.5.20.
There are so many mods adapted for 1.1.0.15b, and many less for 1.0.5.20.
We´re improving its security all times we detect a possible secuity hole/issue

Links:
Icy phoenix download
Patches
Graphics
Official reviewed templates
Translations
Others downloads sections

I await this help you.

Ok thanks,
I downloaded icy portal 1.20 ie the beta one , i guess that is the latest.
When will you guys change the portal skins to be compatible with the beta version 1.20 of icy portal
Also when do we expect the final version of icy portal.

You said there are many Mods adapted for 1.1.0.15b and less for 1.0.5.20 , so which should i use?
1.15 or 1.20.

I recommend you to use the 1.1.0.15b, because beta doesn´t have any support in this forum.
Templates are different because php files are different, so the templates can´t be adapted.

I am really confused with the versions.

In the downloads I saw a stable version of Icy Phoenix 1.1.0.15c [STABLE]
Then there is 1.1.0.15b
and there is also Icy Phoenix 1.1.5.20 Beta 1

You recommended 1.1.0.15b but i guess we have an update for 1.1.0.15b which is 1.1.0.15c and it is stable, means recommended.

Then why is there the download for Icy Phoenix 1.1.5.20 Beta 1 when it is not supported ?
Also the developer has said no new mods are added which means old mods are updated , hence i assume all the previous mods in 1.1.0.15b are present in 1.1.0.20 beta 1
also the 1.1.0.20 beta 1 version is an updated one.

The developer has placed an update file for changing 1.1.0.15 to 1.1.0.20!

So I really want to know which should I use.
I would also like to know if I download and use 1.1.0.15c or 1.1.0.15b will it be possible to update to 1.1.0.20 successfully when the final version of 1.1.0.20 is released.
And last question ---- should i download 1.1.0.15c instead of 1.1.0.15b  ?


I appreciate your work , keep it up.
Thanks for your replies!

Yes, DL the last version of icy 1.1.0.15*.
There is that file, and we give a little support, but no all we can because it is a beta, and we based on phpbb.
We will adapt mods, themes and others things then another stable version is relased.
For 1.1.0.15* we give full support.
For beta 1 we only have got the bugs tracker and little support.

I want to know
1) Is there any harm if i download and install beta 1 ?
2) If i download 1.1.0.15c will it be upgraded to final 1.1.0.20 later ?
3) The only harm in downloading the beta 1 is that it is not supported. ?
4) Are the mods installed on 1.1.0.15 already installed on 1.1.0.20 ?

Can i use 1.1.0.15 themes for 1.1.0.15c

Plz answer question per point.
thanks .

The diferences between 1.1.0.15, 1.1.0.15a, 1.1.0.15b and 1.1.0.15c are cumulative patches.

There is no harm to your web because you DL and install beta1, only you youldn´t get support
There are the same mods pre-installed in 1.1.0.15c and in beta 1
You can upgrade your version at any moment.
As I said there are only cumulative pathes between 1.1.0.15* and 1.1.0.15c, so templates are the same.
