Rheddy Posted July 1, 2009 Share Posted July 1, 2009 Before upgrading to IPB3, there were some members in my community who would have problems with 2.3 such as logging in or other access problems. While I was unsure of how my community would take to IPB3, I have to say that the majority of members on my site have been pleased with the new version. Most of the problems that were associated with IPB 2.3 had been fixed with IPB3 and everyone seems happy with the new version including the new features. While some bugs have been corrected, I've been told, with 3.0.1, it's been the general consensus that my members like the new IPB. The only issue I've heard so far is that some of my members would like to see a feature which would allow them to turn the smilies or emoticons "on or off" so that they don't have to view them. While there are some areas that IPB3 could stand improvement in, I can honestly report that the new software receives positive marks from my 700+ members.

NotPrinceHamlet Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Just so you guys know, the posters on my board seem to really like the new software, too. My co-admin also loves the new Admin CP! Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smokey-Rev Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 I showed my members and staff clips of the IPB3 test board I have up and they all seem to like it but want to wait for 3.0.1 for the odd bugs in 3.0.0 to be fixed before I perform the update to the boards and blogs system. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NotPrinceHamlet Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 If you guys could put together a skin converter application, I'd call 3.0 a uncompromised success. Jeff Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Glock36 Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Where is this version 3.0.1 ??? I need bug fixes too. The concepts behind 3.0 are great...the execution leaves something to be desired...but this is a complete rewrite so I realize we have to work out the bugs.

Mark H. Posted July 3, 2009 Share Posted July 3, 2009 Glock36: You have to have an active license to download v 3.x and 3.0.1 isn't yet released, just 3.0.0 so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EagleBurner Posted July 7, 2009 Share Posted July 7, 2009 It would be nice to have a Page Top button on the skin as you have to scroll all the way back which can be annoying in threads with lots of replies. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
