Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted February 24, 200915 yr I have some unfinished topics on the preview board. Can we expect it to be resurrected/merged/killed?
February 24, 200915 yr Killed I'm afraid. It's around for our reference for a bit longer, but it will not be saved in any form beyond that. I think the big red notice gave some warning of this :D
February 24, 200915 yr Sure, just wanted to clarify. My feedback is that it would be nice if it was put back online, as a read-only archive. Different red notice I guess. Also, could we have some sub-forums for the modding community here now that IPB 3 is 'official'? Or should we expect to discuss stuff at that level at IPS Resources? I would suggest the former, because the modding capability of this new version is very exciting, and it might be better if discussion was visible to potential new customers here, rather than existing customers 'there'.
February 24, 200915 yr As far as I know, we will add a forum for IPB3 discussion which I would assume will be suited to modding discussion too. Once IPB3 is final, I'm not certain what the plan is - the resource site should be getting some TLC though.
February 25, 200915 yr I asked this at the preview board but never made it back to if if you replied... Can't you move the important feedback topics from the preview board to a forum here on this board??? :cool:
February 25, 200915 yr Management Without wishing to sound rude or unhelpful: no. It would mean writing a custom script to merge topics and posts and member IDs and quite frankly, we don't want to do that.
February 25, 200915 yr I'm afraid you should basically consider the content on the preview board gone for good. ;) I'll try to scrape through it at some point and put up the useful stuff I posted to help developers somewhere, but we put up a big notice plenty in advance to prevent anyone from being surprised it was going away. It was, after all, simply a preview demo board.
February 25, 200915 yr I have almost up to date saves too, but still think read only would be useful for others who didn't visit, and now the code is here, might benefit. Not forever, only until the official documentation is released. ;)
