It is for text that a mod write in a thread?

I've changed my wording on that :D

Before it was... either all text, or only icons, now when you enable the font awesome icons in the moderator bar you can simply add that css to your extra.css file to achieve:

Nothing big, but we had a few requests to have both and we set it up like this on the visitor tabs/footer so why not here :D
 
And, perfect update for me. No problems today or outdated templates (y)

Awesome, I'm really happy with this release while it is small I managed to code the visitor tabs area in a far cleaner way.

Of course I did run into a minor bug this morning with the user panel :D, simple check box fix but I won't count that :D
 
I am using Core AND Blackened Pro (1.5.6), both based on XenBase. So if i upgrade now the Core and XenBase style to 1.5.7, will it affect Blackened Pro somehow negatively ?

Nope you'll be good. @Steve should be uploading the new uploads for the remaining styles shortly.
 
No need to upload style folder for this I suppose. I am using zipped.

We haven't sent out updates for 1.5.8 yet, but normally you never need to upload the style folder. We usually recommend uploading the xenbase folder because it will contain the new Font Awesome or updates to some of the JS files we use.
 
You typically don't need to wait on us to upgrade your forum. When you upgrade from 1.5.7 -> 1.5.8 it will show one outdated template (message) which you can use the merge system to update it. If the merge fails just use: https://pixelexit.com/threads/xenforo-1-5-8.3817/#post-22267

I'm knocking away and just about there for our release, it's a nice update :)
With the latest XFMG is showing 3 outdated templates with 1.5.8 fyi
