Probably most interesting include the Leaderboard, from IPS: We are excited to announce the Leaderboard as the latest all new feature of IPS Community Suite. The new Leaderboard is designed to better highlight your most active members and content based on reputation and other metrics. The Leaderboard will greatly enhance both member and content discovery on your community. 

Also Tag Quick Edit: Tags are a powerful feature in IPS Community Suite 4 and we have seen clients using them in many ways to enhance content discovery on their site. Adding tags to an item is quite easy but modifying them after the fact requires you to edit the root content item. Not only is this tedious but it also then shows an edited-by line for that item even if all you did was change a tag. To make this process more user friendly we now have the ability to quickly edit tags when viewing any content item. When you view an item that has tags enabled and you have permission to edit then you will see a link to edit tags.

EmbedsIPS Community Suite allows for integrations with quite a few third party systems and also can embed content from external sites. We have added a whole new list of embed providers where you can just paste in a link to that site and a nice box will show up.

Earlier today I copied some stuff from another website and pasted in in a response. I did not like the way it appeared so I made an attempt to delete it. I was not allowed to do so. Either by deleting or back spacing. So I logged out and closed the browser. Did a disc cleanup and a power reset on my computer. Came back up, logged back in, and made an attempt to respond to the same thread. The stuff I did not like was still there. So I did a select all and delete. That worked. I have found that if I make a response to a thread and forget to hit the submit reply, go to another thread and attempt to make a reply the information I typed earlier appears in my response to the new thread I was responding to. I know this has happened to others as there responses are not relevant to the thread they are responding to.Are these problems fixed?
