Please IPB update your documentation. Right now, I feel a lot of it is poorly written and hard to fully understand. I also dislike how hard it is to navigate from article to article. An example of something I would like to see would be something similar to what Xenforo has done:

Installation page: http://xenforo.com/help/installation/

I like the way they layout and word their tutorials. Simple English with each section separated into different steps. In contrast with IPB, IPB in my opinion is very cluttered and hard to understand.

Any thoughts?

Personally I disagree with you. I find the Ipb's documentation section very detailed and easy to navigate and find the things you need. At least that was the case with me. I found everything I needed to know there with ease in a short time.

It's being updated for 3.2's release :)




As an update, do you plan to have images and/or videos then just plan text? I mean the text is nice and all but well pictures do help to understand issues more. :)

It could be flush out a little more.

Well, the Op was saying and I quote:

Which in my opinion is not true at all and that was a totally different thing than saying for ex, the Documentation area needs some improvements :)

Sorry I should reword that. I just feel it should a bit easier and clearer to understand. Just look at Xenforo's version of the installation documentation and then look at IPB's current version. Its much easier to understand and lays it out step-by-step. Doesn't matter now anyways, it being updated. :)
