Tomorrow either in the early morning or late at night I shall place the forum offline for maybe 15 minutes at the most in order to upgrade our forum software to the current version. There should be no problems with the upgrading and when it's done the following shall be added:

Link Sharing
Easily share links from your community to Facebook, Twitter, and more. Great way to drive traffic to your community!

Status Updates
Enhancements to the existing member status system in IP.Board to include the ability to reply and more.

Topic Preview
Preview the first few lines of a topic without loading the entire topic.

View Reputation
Optionally allow your members to see who gave reputation points on their posts.

Twitter Integration
Your members can now link their account with their Twitter account!

Improved Facebook Integration
Further enhance the link between your community and Facebook to drive traffic. Including new Facebook Graph API

Advertising Code Integration: Part 1 and Part 2

Profile Customizations: Part 1 and Part 2
Allow your members to customize the look and feel of their profile page.

Upgrading your skin between versions of IP.Board just became a lot easier.

Soft Delete Posts and Topics
Rather than actually deleting a post or topic you can now hide it from view to easily restore it later.

Notification System
An easier way to be notified of all the various events that happen in your community. And Improvements

Modification Development Enhancements
Great tools for those that create modifications for IP.Board

Hook System Improvements
Improvements to the IP.Board hook system to make it easier for modification developers to expand the functions in the software.

Search Engine Optimization: Part 1 and Part 2
Allow search engines to better index and rank your community in results.

Search Engine Overhaul
Search engine rebuilt from the ground up introducing more flexibility and power.

Template Merge Tool
Merge skin changes between versions right in the AdminCP.

All new Mobile Skin
Mobile skin for many popular devices to enable easy access to your community.

Automatic Media Embedding
Automatic parsing of YouTube and other media into posts.

# Search Engine Optimization (SEO) improvements
# Admin can now modify each member's notification options when editing the member in the AdminCP
# A new tool to test outbound connections has been added to the support tab. Useful for license, chat, or other connection issue diagnostics.
# Support for Push Notifications via IPS iPhone App

If you are unable to access the forum for more then 20 minutes or so then please keep a eye on our website where I will give any notification of a problem.

Well, good luck with that. Guess it's that time since the new version may have the latest security patches. Just hope the mods won't be affected.

I've gone around and made sure all mods will continue to work or if there was some patch to put on so they continue to work and I believe all will work after this.
 
Cool, although I don't notice that much of a difference.

PS: Damn Spiritwarrior you finally changed your avi!

the update was mainly for ACP and registering/log in but a few forum things were added like the share topic option at the bottom of a post.

I can't find the share topic button...

Can you show me a screen shot please? Thanks!
 
might need permission to view, I'll check it out otherwise I will post one. edit, here is what I am talking about for share topic: (placed in spoiler tags for large size.)

Also the topic last reply date has been fixed (Expect IPB pro, anyone using this skin?).

I sent everyone a PM to check to make sure the mass PM system still worked, check to see if you got that and notice.

I still need to check the arcade and welcome message for new members.

If you guys notice anything wrong let me know. more updates later.
 
I did not see the share topic list yesterday, but I'm seeing it now.

Also, I received your private message, but I can't reply.
 
a few more updates here:

first off I have put away the E3 forums for another year and have moved all topics to the world gaming boards.

Second I have made the forum game board a post increasing forum for awhile (to post exchange people try not to make all posts in this forum.)

I also gave the advertising forum a bit of make over and changed the guidelines again, make sure you read that.

I made it so you can view who gave you rep.

Tomorrow I should have twitter connection up.

that's all for now.

edit, anyone able to give rep?
 
I've added another hook which allows you to either print, or download any PM conversations you may want to keep a record of. Right now though they look a little off since I didn't upload the contents of the upload folder right before installing the hook and I'm still a noob on how to do that so it may be a while before the thing looks right but right now it works right.

so enjoy.

(I'm still looking into the PM and topic errors.)
