Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted September 7, 20204 yr I am currently using IPB 4.4.2. The admin CP shows me that I can upgrade to 4.4.10. Is 4.5 available yet? Do I need to upgrade to 4.4.10 before 4.5 will appear?

Yes, however you may need to set a special constant in your constants.php file if you are self-hosted to get it (USE_DEVELOPMENT_BUILDS). It's presently in a soft-launch status, which means that not everyone sees the ability to upgrade in their ACP. You can download it from the client area, however there are major breaking changes from 4.4 to 4.5 and you'll want to make sure all your themes, language packs, applications, and plugin customizations are compatible before proceeding. Backup your filesystem and database before attempting to upgrade, and if possible, do an upgrade in a test install first to make sure things are working as you expect them to.
