The forum has now been upgraded to the latest version of IPB.

What's new in IP.Board 3.2!



In addition to this list there are countless other minor improvements and
changes based on client feedback too numerous to mention.





Calendar Improvements


Moderator Functions


New Text Editor


AdminCP


Core Functionality




Miscellaneous Changes

  • "Delete All" button has been added to the SQL error logs page


  • Linear+ and Outline modes removed for topic viewing (they're a hold-over
    from an older time on the web and it's time to retire them)


  • Support for IPv6


  • You can now use the member management tools to search for incomplete
    members


  • Pagination added to the incomplete members page of the ACP


  • If only one skin or language is choosable, the dropdown selector at the
    bottom of the page will be hidden


  • Member photos and member avatars are being merged into one function:
    member photo. There was too much overlap between the two features.


  • IP.Calendar and IP.Chat will no longer be bundled in the IP.Board
    download zip to reduce the size of the download. This also allows clients
    who have no interest in IP.Chat or IP.Calendar to choose not to download or
    install those applications. Of course those who do wish to use those
    applications can easily download from the client area and install them.


  • Rebuild FURL cache button has been moved to the cache management page.


  • It is now possible to rename the "hooks" folder to something else
    editing the constant IPS_HOOKS_PATH in initdata.php.


  • You can now edit each group's report center permissions directly from
    the group management area


  • Report center now supports item marking to remember and indicate which
    reports you've viewed


  • Customers who have purchased Copyright Removal no longer need to enter a
    separate Copyright Removal key. The copyright will automatically be removed
    when activating your license.


  • New settings for attachments to limit size of files stored on disk


  • Separate ACP restriction options have been added for managing spam users
    and incomplete users (access to these areas were previously controlled by
    the option "can manage banned users").


  • "Show X Last visitors in profile" now shows always the last 5 visitors
    if the setting is enabled rather than having a 3, 5, 10 dropdown choice.


  • New ACP tool to create the cronjobs to rebuild sphinx indexes


  • When adding a ban filter in the ACP you will now have an option to enter
    a reason visible to all admins (the reason won't show in the public side).


  • Pinned, polls, and moved topic prefixes have been moved to language
    files (they were previously in the settings area)


  • Many redundant or pointless settings removed. Other settings moved to
    more logical locations. Some settings groups merged to create fewer groups
    to go through when setting up your community. System Settings menu item
    moved to a top-level menu item under System tab so it's available with
    one-click anywhere in AdminCP.


  • The note box in your My Settings (UserCP) area has been removed. It is a
    hold-over from years past and doesn't seem to make sense in community
    software. If you are one of the very few people who use this: make a copy of
    your notes before upgrade.


  • The unread topic marking system will now remember what page of a topic
    you left off reading rather than assume you read the entire topic on the
    first click.

One error i've noticed is sig's only show the BB code, so you'll need to resave your sig here. It should already have your sig code in the box so you just need to click Save Changes.
