What about a new constant? "HOOK_EDIT_MODE", or something. As with any other constants, place that in initdata.php, and setting that to 1, would enable those edit sections. Which would allow any administrators to edit the hooks, without facing any security risks by putting the whole board IN_DEV.

Wow, amazing to see how this flipped into a "when is it ready" topic. Like we don't have enough of those...


I've not have any big problems adjusting to the total change of how we do things. Of course, there was the required week(s) of head scratching, but after that you can totally see the beauty of the application/hook installer. Wrapping up a modification for release is like a dream now, and not like 2.2/2.3 with the instruction files with thousands of various file edits.
If you put enough effort into it, you should be able to hook into almost everything by using a mix of all of the three kinds of hooks.

I have browsed through the articles here and have yet to see one with the most basic of info on how member data is loaded, outputs and such.

Member data is loaded by IPSMember::load() in ./admin/sources/base/core.php. But every column in ibf_members, ibf_profile_portal, ibf_groups, ibf_sessions and ibf_pfields_content are loaded (if nothing else is specified by the controller), so you don't have to add things to the select part as in the old class_sessions.php.
Output is mainly controlled by ./admin/sources/output/publicOutput.php, and is always accessible trough $this->registry->getClass( 'output' ) or $this->registry->output.

There are no examples to a basic app with group permissions. I don't want to have to go back to 2.1.x days where the perms were added to the cp_skin_groups.php/action_admin but as of now it looks like the only viable way to do it. Maybe I'm not feeling it because I am so use to v2.3.x.

It depends on what kind of group permissions you're looking for. For group specific settings, you have ./extensions/admin/group_form.php, which will create a new tab for you application in the group editor. The same goes for member specific settings (./extensions/member_form.php). Look at existing applications for advice.

It was expected, RC1 always does, it's the first time it's used on live sites by hundreds of thousands of people :) #ipb

It was also the first time where "normal" people had access to the unencoded source files, and when developers really started the move from 2.3 to 3.0.

I know I have to do that, but it's a bit, ehm, bothersome(?) to that every time I install something. Since the language cache is more modular than the templates, no language strings will be lost if it's rebuilt after installation/when I choose to.

Am I blind, or are there no tools to rebuild master_lang?

The key is used to communicate with reCaptcha. Normally, an API key is restricted to one domain only, but not the default one.

I don't think it matter much if you use that one, or make your own. If it did, IPS, and reCaptcha, would required that all user got their own keys.

I think Aeolus is talking about the application tabs.

Not only for you, but for webdesigners all around the globe.

I hate it when developers place the focus on something automatically. Especially on login pages, where the browser already know my username, and I tab my way down to the password field and start typing. Then finding out it placed the focus back on the username, which now contains my password. Really fun if you're in a public place.

If they really have to set the focus on something, do it immediately after the form is printed, instead of waiting for dom:loaded.

Rewrites are done trough PHP, and old URL's can still be used.

Think I've read somewhere that MS will use Webkit in IE9, and Webkit supports rounded corners.

EDIT: They're just "considering" it. http://www.labnol.org/internet/internet-explorer-to-shift-to-webkit/5269/

Just a browser quirk, and I don't think IPS will release a new version of the 2.3 series just to correct that.
Plus, just can't report 2.3 bugs, unless it's reproducible in 3.0.

Josh have recently tweeted that he've been working on it, but not said anything about how far he'd come on it. All they've said is that it should, and will, be ready for the final release.

So popular that it was only submitted to the authors own site, not any of the big resource sites. And that total download for the last version was 872, the number of registered customers on this forum is ~4240. In addition to those we have those without an active support license, and I believe that's quite a few.

What I'm saying here is that that mod isn't as popular as you may want it to be.
