Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted April 24, 200816 yr I have noticed that Invision upgraded their IP:Board to 2.3.5. :D ^^ Is it a security update and-or are we getting new features? :)
April 24, 200816 yr Only just noticed that :P Probably just a version update to include all of the patches that were released for 2.3.3 and 2.3.4...just a logical guess though o.O

April 24, 200816 yr Tsk, way ahead of you IPS, we have had an About Me section for months :P Still, that's one less modification now during upgrades so thanks!
April 24, 200816 yr There are very few "features". There is the new about me page (and the ability for admins to edit a member's about me page from the ACP). There's a setting to force uploads to a specific server (this is useful for those who have load-balanced web servers - you can then use rsync to replicate the files properly). "View My Blog" and "View My Albums" links in the member name dropdowns (topic view, announcements, pm's, memberlist and calendar events). Bug fixes marked for 2.3.5 from bug tracker. This will be more clearly identified with the release announcement once ready.
April 24, 200816 yr this is a list of bugshttp://forums.invisionpower.com/index.php?...changefilters=1
April 24, 200816 yr Is there any reason you decided to add new features - I don't think I've ever seen that before in a point release - or was it just a whim?
April 24, 200816 yr I think the biggest motivation behind the about me page was the ability to see a members signature in their profile. You could do this with the old profile, but not the new one.
April 24, 200816 yr They had indeed added features midterm in the past. Its not all security/stability releases ;)
April 24, 200816 yr Is there any reason you decided to add new features - I don't think I've ever seen that before in a point release - or was it just a whim? Performance reasons. Loading the topics for the default page on profiles caused high loads on bigger sites.
April 24, 200816 yr About Me is pretty good. Now I can get rid of a signature mod I was using. Nice. I also like that it goes to that by default instead of topics. by the way, is having the about me as default the reason profiles are loading faster? I am guessing this will be released when blog is considered bug-free enough to release along with it? Would gallery also havea new release or has it been too short of a time since the last one? I always thought it was nice when everything would release simultaneously.
April 24, 200816 yr by the way, is having the about me as default the reason profiles are loading faster? If I had to guess... yes.
April 24, 200816 yr Click your name beside Logout. Neat feature :)Edit: Wait, where's Lyndsey? Dead? lol I expected to see this topic from them. :lol:
April 25, 200816 yr Performance reasons. Loading the topics for the default page on profiles caused high loads on bigger sites. Thanks to the complaining from Speed Racer.
April 25, 200816 yr Performance reasons. Loading the topics for the default page on profiles caused high loads on bigger sites. Maybe that causes the slowing down of our site when spiders crawl our site.
April 25, 200816 yr Performance reasons. Loading the topics for the default page on profiles caused high loads on bigger sites. Very true. And posts were worse there was higher load.
April 25, 200816 yr I kinda miss the times when my community caused emergency security fixes. It's been like some months since last time it happened. If there is one thing that I am unsatisfied about, it's the formating engine for posts. It's a mess.
