New vBulletin release

[Nova]

We might want to upgrade ... I have attached the file from the vb members area here ...

List of Bugs Fixed

• Changed postbit and bbcode_* templates to use tags rather than
  tags for increased cross browser compatibility. (This should also fix several related bugs.)

  Fixed possible security issue relating to logging in. Note: some users may need to request a new password in order to be able to login.

  Readded no-cache header setting, which was mistakenly left out. (Link)

  Forced sending of no-cache headers in the admin control panel. (Link)

  Fixed situation where "Edit Avatar" didn't show when it was supposed to. (Link)

  Fully removed references to $vboptions['abspath'] (Link)

  Fixed issue causing '//' to be displayed in the URL after being redirected. (Link)

  Fixed fatal error when using certain forum jump options. (Link)

  Admin editing member's post can result in signature not being shown (Link)

  Last post info bleeds into adjacent cells (Mozilla, Opera) (Link)

  Inability to set unlimited attachment count (Link)

  Assorted style issues.

  Assorted language issues.

NO major changes to system this time, templates shuld be fine ... we could do a test first ...

[Pierre-Marie Baty]

Can you post the list of the templates that are concerned by the update ?

[Nova]

I dont have a full list ... id say copy the whole database / the config.php, and then just do a test...

[Pierre-Marie Baty]

I'd say rather not! There are a lot of small changes I did in the templates, which are not immediately visible but were needed nevertheless. If I can't remember them all and I don't see them during the "tests", I will need to pass my nights changing things one after the other each time I find something !

Do we really need to upgrade something that WORKS each time the vBulletin developers change a single line of code ? If you really want the finest caviar, why don't you wait for the gold version ? I suppose the gold version will be a version that isn't supposed to change for a long time.

Anyway, that's my opinion. What do the other council members think ?

[edit]I won't oppose an upgrade, lemme make it clear. But if we upgrade, I WON'T redo the templates : someone else will need to. And I can assure you there are a LOT of things to do (increasing the max number of smilies displayed in a smiliebox, removing the "vBulletin forums -" prefix in each and every titlebar, fixing the post previews, putting the member rules in the register page, adding new vbPhrases, reverting the postbit template to old-fashioned style (i.e. user thubmnail on the left instead of top), etc, etc. There is EVEN stuff to do in the PHP functions of the include/ directory, by hand, via SSH. You'll be warned.

Fair enough, wait until Gold version it just wanted to let you know there was an upgrade.
