I think that Invisonboard 2 is going to be really nice.. The problem I have had is I can't find a lot of features that are new or changed from 1 to 2... Does anyone know where I can find that?

Read this forum for all the features. :)

Just came across this :) ^^ Above, yep I'm developing SSIplus+ 3, the original plan was to get the IPB SDK to take over from SSIplus+ but it's a little complex for somethings ;) I am going to develop SSIplus+ 3 with Smarty, SDK, etc. usage.

I'm not a huge fan of IPB 2 myself - ACP is way bloated, there's the word "TRIAL" there at the bottom of the boards, which some people who are students like me simply can't afford to pay to remove. Every version IPB goes more paid, it's not as free as it was :) It's no longer free, it's a trial, then we had (U) in the copyright, not TRIAL. They keep reigniting the IPB is becoming too paid campaign every version.

Apart from that, may turn out to be a nice upgrade. Just waiting for the final release to see if we see the Skin Version Controller back they advertised so heavily during 1.3, and hopefully 2.0 becoming a little more developer friendly :)

Just to inform you all... We all know version two is near final release but, just to warn you all there are some major problems at the moment causing a nightmare of problems... I downloaded the Public Beta last night and although it installed OK the forum doesn?t work at all... loads of people are reporting different problems causing different problems...

The install says CHMOD all to 0777 including global.php (this does not work it only works if you CHMOD to 0666) people are getting error 400 and 500 Admin CP not working... loads of issue...

Don't worry all these issues will be resolved before the final release which I believe will be the end of April or half way through May... Might be closer if they work around the clock but, we shall all be patient and wait because IPB is the DB...:rolleyes:s:

I'm still converting to version 2.0 can not wait...

I didn't have a problem with the install. My only problem is the Moderating Team link is busted and gives a mySQL error.

With our site reaching completion and the design of the site is complete and now we are testing our re-coding of Virtuanews and Invision Power Board... We have also been testing version 2.0 of IPB (not with Virtuanews because it does not work with this version...) Because we have been informed by Virtuanews this will not be compatible because of the complexity of the database how in version 2.0 of IPB, the only way I'm going to get around this with version 2.0 would be to get someone to totally rewrite the structure of the Virtuanews script to run in conjunction with version 2.0 of IPB...

Or just run two separate databases and link the login and forum to Virtuanews as a link exchange instead... other than that I know no other way...

The member's database is no more complex that it is in 1.3 - you just have to make sure of the converge module. I'll be writing a developers paper on how to use it in time for the final release of 2.0 so most developers should be able to make the needed adjustments to any integration bridges they have written.

I just read about converge and really impressed with this new application thanks Matt for the input and I shall speak to our developers about this...

I'm likely to move away from VN anyway because of the limitations, which are imposed on this software... I had to do so much hacking on this CMS portal it was ridicules just to make the changes gave me such a headache... I believe there is a new CMS coming out soon which is going to blow away VN but, do not know the name of this as of yet...

Converge sounds awesome...

>> Download Now *** The download of PDR2 has been temporarily disabled while we address a possible security issue with the code. This issue does not impact previous version of Invision Power Board and since version 2.0 PDR2 does not have upgrade ability from previous versions there is no impact for our current customer base.

    • EA Sports UFC 6 review: Brutal, satisfying, and surprisingly accessible to newcomers

      By Steven P. · Posted

      Because we were never offered a UFC game to review it in the past. Sometimes it's not a conspiracy, the reviewer does not even live in the U.S. and didn't ask for it.

    • Apple releases iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers and power users

      By Aditya Tiwari · Posted

      Apple releases iOS 27 Beta 2 for developers and power users by Aditya Tiwari It's been a couple of weeks since Apple previewed the iOS 27 update during the WWDC official keynote. The upcoming iOS version will bring even more refinements to the Liquid Glass design language, an upgraded Siri AI assistant, and several new Apple Intelligence features. Interestingly, the latest WWDC keynote was different than previous years. Apple has released the iOS 27 beta 2 (build 24A5370h) for developers who want to test the new features being baked for the iPhone and optimize their apps. If you're interested in downloading the latest beta, go to Settings > General > Software Update > beta Updates, then choose iOS 27 Developer Beta. You can download the latest iOS 27 beta on more than 30 supported iPhones. Make sure you know what you are doing since developer betas can be unstable and unexpected at times. If you want to be on the safer side, you can wait for the public beta, which will arrive next month. It's been a while since Apple discontinued its AirPort router lineup. Now, the company said in the iOS 27 beta 2 release notes that the AirPort Utility is deprecated and won't be available for new downloads from the App Store. Apple added that if you previously downloaded the app, you can re-download it. However, the functionality isn't guaranteed when using the AirPort Utility on iOS 27 or later. Speaking of known issues, Apple said that the Portrait mode blur effect might render incorrectly for photos; you may be unable to stop an alarm from the lock screen without unlocking your iPhone; the "Add a Control" button in Control Center edit mode might appear small or clipped. There are several new features in iOS 27 beta 2 as well. It comes with Neural Engine improvements for Apple Intelligence, including better performance when loading large models over 1GB. HomeKit Secure Video recordings are processed on-device and through Private Cloud Compute for video descriptions and search, when Apple Intelligence is enabled in the Home app. That said, you can also download the second betas of macOS 27 Golden Gate, iPadOS 27, watchOS 27, and other Apple operating systems.
    • AMD 26.6.2 driver brings FSR 4.1 support to RDNA 3 RX 7000 series graphics cards

      By RejZoR · Posted

      FSR 4.1 is insanely superior to FSR 3. Like, FSR 4.1 Performance looks better than FSR 3.1 Quality. It's great they are finally enabling it for RX 7000 users. A bit late, but I guess better late than never.
