Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted March 30, 200915 yr ....man I'll die first before this new version of IPB comes out... ...and there this recession... ...wars... ...the world is falling apart.... ....AAAAAAARGH! ...have mercy....and give us IPB3 soon...save us from this waiting misery...I just can't wait any longer... >_<
April 2, 200915 yr Man, beta 4 to the enxt version is taking forever. Not that I am complaining, I am stressed trying to get my apps finished and keep getting off track and adding things. But sitll, kind of surprising.
April 2, 200915 yr They've implemented the help system, ramped up QA, and I'm sure a bunch of other behind the scenes stuff for the next release. Stuff they do now is one less thing they have to do after the next version.
April 2, 200915 yr Well looks like beta 5 is going to be out soon anyway becuase I see one of the devs submitted a bug report for beta 5. Not sure if you get those releases also or not.
April 4, 200915 yr Beta 4 was highly unstable and buggy. And considering there's still about 30 confirmed bugs in the tracker, I think we're not going to see a release anytime soon.
April 7, 200915 yr IPB 3.0, coming this When it's ready™ Beta 4 was highly unstable and buggy. And considering there's still about 30 confirmed bugs in the tracker, I think we're not going to see a release anytime soon. They've said their target date is before June, and really I disagree with you saying beta 4 was highly unstable and buggy, it's not very buggy at all compared the betas before it, and they really are making a lot of progress.
April 7, 200915 yr Well, June is seven weeks away. Beta 5 will probably be another week or two and that's not to say anything about how many RC's. That June date is gonna cut it close but I think we'll see the release sometime in June. ;)
April 8, 200915 yr This week so far there were only 2 bugs fixed in the tracker. Now I doubt beta 5 will be released this week. The June release also seems unlikely.
April 8, 200915 yr Let me remind everyone that bug fixes are NOT the only thing that we work on between beta releases. ;) For instance, Rikki has been working hard to consolidate and clean up the CSS - something we promised would be done before release. Additionally, we've spent the last few days doing further performance testing and tweaking.
April 8, 200915 yr I know this is only vaguely on-topic, but do you have a timeframe for release of Beta 5? Yes, yes, I know.... "When It's Ready!" ;) But are we talking another week or two, or mere days? And if you can't or aren't allowed to answer that, I understand. I'm just trying to do some scheduling of my time for this week and next. TIA.
April 8, 200915 yr I can sure the beta 5 is available before April 15 of 2010 and the final version on May 1st 2010 ;)
April 8, 200915 yr We have an internal list that must get done before Beta 5 can be released. By and large, the list isn't backend/development related so I can't really estimate I'm afraid. :) Instead of releasing a beta 5 with a bunch of unfinished items and known issues we're working to have everything done for beta 5. This should streamline the rest of the beta/RC process greatly by not moving into this stage with a lot of outstanding items that need to be finished (and tested).

I wish you a merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! I'll see you then to 3.0...
April 10, 200915 yr Invision power board community is getting better and better...I own a vbulletin forum by just using invision power board i think invision can be better then vbullein and vbullein updates arent really very big in 3.8.1 from the older versions theres only a little change. I have studied why people like vbulletin it is because of this and the posting rules that tells you you dont have permission do to this or that if the invision power board can do that that means vbulletin are lagging bahind. thanks you
April 24, 200915 yr not complaing, but this is just "normal" When it said it is comnig soon last Dec or Nov, people should knew it is gonna takes at least 6 months and another 6 months to settle dust so if you have any forum plan on hands, go for it now unless you could wait for another 6 months Not to mention that best time to upgrade is also when formal release is at least 6 months old
