Have you attached the screenshot?

Any particular area of the site you are seeing this?

hmm seems to not want to upload my screen shots. Main things are two buttons next to my username at the top of the screen and all of the icons above (as you write) a reply show up as blank rectangles and all icons/images beside forum topics show rectangles aswell. Using windows mobile IE if that makes any difference

Windows mobile might be the issue. I'm using chrome on my iPhone, and no issues with mobile what so ever. Uploading is done using html5 so should work on any browser.

That's what it looks like on mine.

Only thing I can think without seeing a screenshot is the SSL ciphers being used, and your browser is blocking some of the content.

Could you email me the screenshot?

Matt

The two buttons at the top (along with most of the icons) are done with fontawesome which is pure CSS, so again, that could be specific to the browser

Matt

Actually, from what you have described as I've read it again sound like none of the fontawesome stuff is working in your browser. I'll do some digging and see what I can find out

Yeah, that's fontawesome not being loaded. I'll look and see if I can find what I need to do to try and fix it. Is there a way to look for errors in your browser to see if it's telling you why they aren't being loaded?

Matt

Also, does any of their official site worn for you?

Same as what I found. I'll try making some changes on the server as it could be missing some settings that were present in the old config that was sending the correct mime types up. I'll try debugging it tomorrow.

big thumbs up to you. I can build pc's with my eyes closed but like I said CSS scripts and the like just baffle me. Cheers dude

I fully reinstalled the server hosting the site this morning, but I've got all the config files for nginx and php backed up on the backup server, so I'll check against those.

Matt

Seeing the same issue in IE on my laptop as well

Matt

Should be fixed now.

Had to add this to my nginx config for the z22se.uk domain I use to serve the static content from

        location ~* \.(eot|ttf|woff)$ {
                add_header Access-Control-Allow-Origin *;
        }

big thanks matt, everything coming up perfectly now
