Neowin doesn't wanna upgrade becuase of the mods they have for 3.2 :(

I do agree though. It's gotten much better. Also adds mobile mod controls and it's much faster as well.

They will probably upgrade sometime this year. But wait, there mods would stay where they are. IP. Board keeps everything the way it is when you upgrade to a new version. I've owned multiple forums and they were all running IP. Board and when I upgraded to the latest version, all my mods were still there.

Some hooks have issues, however my upgrades all have ran smoothly though.

Well, the latest IP. Board is 3.4.1. And I believe they released a security update not too long ago to fix a security issue. What's the latest version you guys are using now anyway?

Mine's been done patched for a while now and I also applied the editor patch as well.....

Most of our mods aren't (and can't be) done through hooks, we have to edit a lot of the source files for IP.Board itself (there's over 200 modifications we have to make) to provide the functionality we use here.

Why can't you do it with hooks??

A lot of what we do changes existing functionality, rather than extending it. Also, there aren't hook points at every location in the code where we need to do things. On top of that, hooks themselves are problematic on a multi-server setup without modifications to make them work.

We (~5m post since 2007) upgraded from 3.2.3 to 3.4.1 about a month ago and ever since then I get daily complaints about the rich text editor slicing link URLs, not encoding unicode characters properly, quote and code blocks not working properly, lack of button-based BBcode editor, etc etc

They've backported the 3.4.2 RTE fixes back to 3.4.1 but it's still not quite there. In hindsight, we probably should've waited too.

What ever happen to neowin creating its own forum script? i read you guys were going to do this a year or so ago?

Might be alot easier than redoing lines and pages of edits each time IPB is updated.

But then again it'd be hard to come up with something as nice as ipb.

Was codenamed IF, so IF was a big IF

Anyway 3.4 update along with more is coming soon. We're working on it.

    • New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues

      By TarasBuria · Posted

      New PowerToys update fixes memory leaks and other issues by Taras Buria Another bug-fixing update is available for PowerToys version 0.100. After releasing version 0.100.1 with a bunch of bug fixes and patches, Microsoft pushed version 0.100.2 to address two important issues with one of Command Palette Dock's features. With PowerToys 0.100.2, Microsoft fixed the performance meter displaying incorrect values and memory leaks, which are particularly unwanted things in the current situation with overpriced PC hardware. Here is the changelog: Reverted a Performance Monitor dock refresh change that forced item refreshes on every metric update Fixed a memory leak in the Performance Monitor dock extension by reusing stable network upload/download band items instead of creating new list items on each refresh For those unfamiliar, Command Palette Dock is a relatively new addition to PowerToys. It is a taskbar-like tool that you can keep on top of the screen to pin various useful widgets, commands, and more. It can display time, weather, your PC's performance metrics, and more. Microsoft introduced the Command Palette Dock in March 2026 in PowerToys 0.98. Microsoft has dedicated documentation for Command Palette Dock, and you can check it out on the official Microsoft Learn website. You can update PowerToys to the latest version by going to Settings > General and clicking "Check for updates." Alternatively, you can download the installer from GitHub using this link. In other news, Microsoft is working on a new window-management utility for PowerToys. Called Alt Window Cycle, it will let you use the Alt + ` shortcut to switch between different windows in a single app. You can learn more about the tool here.
