IP. Board Version check?


Guest CynicalFrost

It occurred to me (from the security updates)that I don't see the version check thing in the IP. Board ACP home screen anymore. I somehow missed the security enhancements thing for a while in the new until some one pointed it out.

Is this just an "oops" or was it intentional for it to be dropped in IPB 2.3 compared to IPB 2.2?

The "update" deal with IPB 2.3 was changed around.. There is no longer a big red/big blue box as there was with previous versions. You've got the content boxes on the right side of the "home" tab. First one is "Latest IPS News".. Assuming you've removed the converter, install/index.php file, and are using FullText searching.

If and when an update comes out, there will be a notice there. Something like "IPB 2.3.2 now available".. When you're running the current version..Nothing shows. There is no "You are up to date" message anymore.

BTW.. If you wanted to see the new update message.. You could edit your init.php file, find the lines

/**
* Version numbers
*
* @since 2.0.0.2005-01-01
*/
define ( 'IPBVERSION', '2.3.1' );
define ( 'IPB_LONG_VERSION', '23004' );

and change it to something like

/**
* Version numbers
*
* @since 2.0.0.2005-01-01
*/
define ( 'IPBVERSION', '2.2.0' );
define ( 'IPB_LONG_VERSION', '22009' );



And then log into your ACP.. Just don't forget to change it back.
