I found something! hehehe

I switched off the RSS feeds in Global RSS Settings, but the icon RSS still shows up near the title of each group.

How can I remove it?

yes, this is a known problem in 5.0.5... It has already been fixed in 5.1...  Its harmless as clicking on the link will not show any rss feeds...

5.1 should be release within the next two weeks...

Thank you Steve.

I found out something else, unfortunately.

The forum runs perfectly in any browser BUT Internet Explorer.

Pretty much, it doesn't load the template. A small window pops up with:

Message: Syntax error
Line: 1453
Char: 4
Code: 0
URI: http://www.irsa-stringers.com/forum

A real mess. Any idea about this? I ate IE but a lot of people still use it.

we dont have any real known issues with IE...

I cannot fully get into your forum, but I dont see any such errors with IE...  where do you see that?  have you tried IE here?  and what version of IE?  we support 8 and 9 and are anxious to drop IE 8 since its dated and not standards compliant - hell neither is 9...

I do see a few errors (may not be critical)?? from the gantry javascript...  might be worth trying the default wp theme and seeing if it clears up...  every browser has their own js engine so you can see different issues in different browsers...

also, have to ask if you are sure you have disabled the caching for all types of caching... still seeing:

Minified using disk: basic
Page Caching using disk: enhanced
Database Caching 12/118 queries in 0.023 seconds using disk: basic
Object Caching 2265/2377 objects using disk: basic

Steve, I tried with Twenty Eleven 1.3 and I still see the same error. But at least the forum is readable.

You do not see the error when landing on the main page of the forum, you see it as soon as you open a specific forum.

At the moment, I am using IE8 here and I saw this error: 

Message: 'this.doc' is null or not an object
Line: 1
Char: 43691
Code: 0
URI: https://simple-press.com/wp-co.....iny_mce.js

I tried by switching W3 Total Cache off, I switched off any plugin I am using and the problem is still there.

Well we know that SP does run just fine on IE8 so that's the first thing.
We also know that TinyMCE runs just fine on IE8.
So - one possibility is that this is some sort of 'cascade' error. Something else failed along the way causing other errors to follow.
The problem with these older IE version is that their error reporting is like sticking your finger in the air to find which way the wind is blowing on a calm day. In other words - pointless and uninformative.
So - one thing to look for is if your site - theme/plugin/anything - is running some sort of IE specific javascript that only gets loaded when IE is detected. Possible?

Everything's possible, Andy hehehehe

I switched off every plugin, leaving only Gantry active. I checked my forum with IE8 and I got a bunch of errors. All abou "objects", "property" and "method". I cannot post them here, I suppose the security level do not allow me to.

When I activated the plugins again, more errors have been added. All js stuff for each plugin.

Now, which object and which property or method? eek

the problem seems to be something adding those addevent handlers...  MS does not support them prior to IE 9...

can you try running the browser in quirks mode and see if that helps?

Steve, I am not sure how to do it...

Do I have to remove <!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC from the header of the template? If so, I have done it and the errors are just the same ones.

I am pretty sure you need to keep the DOCTYPE in your header. I don't have IE but I assume it is an option somewhere. Can you do a google search? I am sure the info is available somewhere easily.
