vBulletin Development Update Discussion

[Breaker]

That's what I would assume the ~ are for to represent an approximate sign. To be honest, what he left out would only make it cheaper / day. Although he did leave out the original purchasing price. :)
yea, i know :D

[Buczilla]

*Needs to see inline post editing for himself*


Awesome!!

[Revanza]

I feel like a kid in a candy factory after the manager just told all the staff to drop whatever they were doing and bugger off for at least 4 hours XD

Just tested inline editing in IE (school comps), and it only worked after refreshing the page.
Oh and just to piss Floris off: When will it be released? ;)

I'm sure by now it's all automated replies. They see that questions, they click something like "Annoying Question About Release", and it automatically posts. :p

I like things are turning out.

So in vB4, it should come with a fridge, coffee machine, full online staff, a small-medium user base, it can fly... and all I have to do is download it and it not only self-installs, but it start operating immediately, right? :rolleyes:

[pieman666]

and fills the forum with a year of great ontopic posts :)

I take it the beta should not be run on a 'live' board?

EDIT: What is the sure fire way of getting the online editing to appear? I seem to have to click like I am playing a game of Q2 to get it to start up without any rhyme nor reason to it?

[WiBu]

I don't actually mind when the beta is released anymore... I wont be using it on a production board when it is in beta and rc status... Would be nice to start playing with though :p

Edit: Cool, inline post edits... good job.

[greywolff]

all im hopeing is that the time from the beta to the "alpha" is short and i dont have to stare at a empty forum waiting for CMS :S oh editing is nice aint it

[TCM]

all im hopeing is that the time from the beta to the "alpha" is short and i dont have to stare at a empty forum waiting for CMS :S oh editing is nice aint itBeta comes after Alpha. Alpha is internal testing, beta is public.

[Carnage-]

I haven't been this impatient since the week before HL2 came out! GIVE US VB 3.5!

agreed. HL2 rocks, Vb 3.5 looks like its going to blow other forum software away. I'm glad i've got a few spare months avaliable... Upgrading and recoding my custom mods to VB3.5 is gunna take me a long time, should be worth it in the long run though.

Edit: testing?

had to have another go at it, this is awesome...

[le`shaq]

great that there's no pointer anymore for instant editing :)

[Acid Burn]

yay, realy cannot wait now.

Bet it'll be released on Tuesday night as I have an exam the next day and wont be alble to play ith it :(

EDIT: Inline editing = good :)

[StarBuG]

The go to page drop down feature in the page navigation is awesom!
Just noticed it!
PERFECTLY done folks!
That is realy a valuble feature

RESPECT

[bchawla]

wow this is cool!

[weirdpixels]

testetetetetettaaaa
there is a test (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=15) forum you know ;)

[Ogden2k]

When is there going to be support for the WYSIWYG editor in Opera? I don't use Opera, but I know some of my staff do.
Quoting myself.

ya ya ya never said i was a rocket scientist :P

[skizzy203]

Man. This wait is killen me. I would like to be the server admin checkin the downoald stats after they finally release it.

I can picture **** and staff logging into stats screen with a big ol grin :D

It would be cool if they could post a hits tracker that was veiwable to the public. I would be interested in seeing the distrobution rate results.

Man... Just used the new URL button with the Hyperlink drop down options in the WYSIWYG editor... thats pretty nifty!

[Jeramy]

I almost clicked the link. I can't wait for the release! :D

Edit: Inline editing is awesome.

[Aerith_Freak]

I've just gone and re-setup my localhost in anticipation over this. Can't wait.

[Sonix230]

This is a Wonderfull Feature (Ajax) :D

[Floris]

The inline editing thing is awesome, but the edited by message isn't showing up. What's up?

And can the size of the editing textbox be controled?

Oh, and you guys rock.
That is because you're editing it within the allowed "Time Limit on Editing of Thread Title" probably.

Great feature, but... is it just me who gets confused to have a "hand" cursor all over the post? :confused:

I'd prefer to use a button instead, or to have to double click only in the posts title, or... something but not in the whole post's area.The hand is now the normal mouse pointer, and you can still click on the edit button if you want.

I hope the calendar gets a minor update while vB is at it. Currently it dates back 5 years but ends in December 2006.
Admin Control Panel > Calendar > Calendar Manager > Options > Date Range > 2000-2010 (that's what I use, last date on that specific calendar is 2010 now)

Hmm, $30.00/year ~ $3.00/month ~ $0.10/day. Is it too much for you? :confused:You still have to have it on that moment, you can't put a year in x hours or x days or x weeks.

vB 3.5 is looking really great, I've renewed my subscription and am anxiously awaiting the release. :D
Me too, jumping up and down in my chair. And I just renewed my 4 owned licenses :)

just kidding, .. my answer still stands: It will be out soon, just wait patiently

[Carnage-]

one question i have, will the vb team be using the plugins system to release modifications themselves? ie none standard 'extra' features? or is it there just for the modders?

[Feran]

.. wow.. I must say, I am just.. overtaken. When I read that thread.. geez.. I haven't been on the forum front for over a year and then BAM @.@

Dude.. I so am going to learn AJAX now. Thank you for the update on the tech world! Bahahaha world domination will soon be mine...

[mixx941]

Hmm, $30.00/year ~ $3.00/month ~ $0.10/day. Is it too much for you? :confused:
Heh, well when you run 3 internet radio stations, a 12 server IRC network, and make no profit from any of it, it kinda is.

But 3.5 is looking great anyway.

[Ogden2k]

You'll have to ask over at the Opera Forums (http://my.opera.com/forums/).
I don't see why I would have to ask over there... It's a question directed to the Devs concering the support for the WYSIWYG in Opera. Thanks for your contribution though.

[Mike Sullivan]

It's up to Opera to implement a framework that allows a WYSIWYG editor like IE and FF have done. (And kinda sorta Safari.)

[Ogden2k]

Ah, ok. That's all I wanted to know... :)

Thank you!

[Sephiroth]

I also like how you have the drop down menus for jumping to page # when the thread spans multiple pages. I never saw that in 3.0.7. o.o

EDIT. o.o Nice

[badmedboy]

Am I the only one who finds it funny that the Opera forums actually use vB, but their software can't display it properly?

[mOdEtWo]

Ah, ok. That's all I wanted to know... :)

Thank you!
Trust me, I've already requested this both here and on the Opera forums. ;)

[AFusion]

Sorry if this has been asked before...

Is inline editing based on permissions? Meaning, for example, can a supa mod or admin edit any post using inline editing?

[Steve Machol]

Yes.

But they are using 2.3.0. ;)

[Gearloose]

The hand is now the normal mouse pointer, and you can still click on the edit button if you want.
I noticed this just minutes (or it was seconds? :eek: ) after my post... and I should confess it was the fastest "you ask, we deliver" I have come across! :respect:

Means, when a user comes to vB.com, clicks Refresh when reply, then they come to our vB 3.5 site - will he see again the same vB errors?

If yes, would our users will encounter these problems if we run a brand new forum on 3.5?

[Wayne Luke]

Means, when a user comes to vB.com, clicks Refresh when reply, then they come to our vB 3.5 site - will he see again the same vB errors?

Files are cached based on domain name so yes... You can work around this by forcing no-cache headers for a while after upgrading and the browser will automatically download the new files.
If yes, would our users will encounter these problems if we run a brand new forum on 3.5?

If it is totally brand new with no cached files, there will be no errors unless something is modified or they change the browser identifier on unsupported browser.

[arab_flash]

hi

one option should be in vb 3.5.0

if the user dose not have permission to access a page why the button appear for hem

it will be great if the button for new post not show if he dose not have permission

I disagree. This will only help unexperienced users understand they have to register. You can do a template edit if you do not want the buttons there.

I thought that screen already does. It gives two reasons this usually occurs. Then gives an option for the user to contact the administrator if thye believe there is an error.

Or are you talking about something different? :confused:

how about View Forum Leaders (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showgroups.php?)

it appear even I chose no one can see it, every day I reseve an email asking me why you show me the like if I do not have permission to access that page ,

Sorry, I thought you were talking about things such as the post reply buttons. But again, you could use a template modification to remove these links.

[arab_flash]

but if I remove it, it wont appear to all usergroup.
here in vbulletin.com if you go to Calendar (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/calendar.php?) than to add new event > ranged event it will tell you

arab_flash, you do not have permission to access this page. This could be due to one of several reasons:


Your user account may not have sufficient privileges to access this page. Are you trying to edit someone else's post, access administrative features or some other privileged system?
If you are trying to post, the administrator may have disabled your account, or it may be awaiting activation.

what I ask about it, why you show me the like if I can not use it? :)

thanks

[Onimua]

Really? I used it as this before in a conversation once:

virtual Bullen [Board]

[womensden]

I thought the "V" was for virtual as well. *shrugs*

Can't wait for the release! :)

[Tailfeathers]

It'd be great if it was tonight. ;)

[Rick Horwitz]

I would just like to say that VB3x has been so good that I for the first time since I've been running a board I haven't been chomping at the bit waiting for the next release.

Your list of features for 3.5 is tremendous. The plugin feature is going to make our lives MUCH easier and encourage webmasters to add more valuable hacks without the fear of the time and trouble it takes to modify files every time a new Vb version is released.

Thanks Vbulletin!

[Ogden2k]

Why was the Hand cursor taken out of the inline editing?

[Onimua]

Why was the Hand cursor taken out of the inline editing?

I didn't like it, for one. ;)

I think it was just annoying and confusing.

[Floris]

Why was the Hand cursor taken out of the inline editing?
I don't know the official reason, but I am glad it is gone because I personally found it annoying to have a hand all the time :P

[Ogden2k]

I don't know the official reason, but I am glad it is gone because I personally found it annoying to have a hand all the time :P
From a mod stand point it may be annoying. I can always add it back in though if I find I really want it. ;)

[ianskate]

I can't wait :D

[Onimua]

Seems like they're putting out more. Now there's four 3.5 Beta Packs out... I'm guessing they're making a small archive file so when they release Beta, we can learn how to implement Plugins, as well as to see how they work and compare with hacks, etc.

[adguru]

By any means, would we be getting 2CheckOut.com Payment Gateway Integration for Paid Subscriptions? :|

/me crosses my fingers for a positive reply ;)

[Tailfeathers]

Hopefully there will be enough places to hook things so a great majority of hacks will be able to be transferred to this new hooks and plugins system. :) What do you think, staffers?

[Onimua]

It's already been said there' like (I think it was) over 100 (or was it 400) places to plug things in.

And from what is apparent at vbulletin.org, they're already making new Plugins for vB 3.5.0 Beta with no problems...

[fire27]

you can always add it manually. if you use one of the other checkout options as a template for the db querys the rest is just adding the proper conditional statements in a file(not sure how this is changed tho for 3.5)

At the bottom of it: Powered by vBulletin Version 3.5.0 Preview Copyright ©2000 - 2005, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd. Designed by: Quacked.

Is it just a joke or is that real? It doesn't look like it, but still... :confused:

[WhSox21]

Yes, it's only a joke.

[Onimua]

Yes, it's only a joke.

Phew... it's ban enough on vbulletin.org they're calling all the 3.5.0 Beta hacks on the front page a "bug," [as seen here (http://www.vbulletin.org/forum/showthread.php?t=82607)] but then seeing a forum with it...

I think I'm getting paranoid waiting for Beta. :eek:

[WhSox21]

You know as well as I, that vBulletin.org does not have a bug. They have those forums inaccessible to all of us but the moderators and admins have access. I think we can all expect something this week.

Note: I know nothing about vBulletin development and I'm only making my own personal predictions.

Edit - From vBulletin.org:
We are just testing the new forums which are still hidden. :) Don't get too excited... ;) But we are close...

vBulletin = teh r0xxorz

Fair enough :)

I'm waiting for the public beta for the same reasons ;)

[ultranerds]

Ditto! Then the fun and games of rewriting the hacks.. oh joy :p

[ultranerds]

I'd imagine that they would need rewriting (at least, for upgrade compatability). I've never had so much fun and games with upgrades, until I started working with vB. Hopefully this new "hook" system will work a treat <G>

Cheers

Andy

[TruthElixirX]

At TAZ Wayne I htink it was stated that you will be able to run 3.5 in 'Legacy Mode' and use all of your current hacks on it. :D

EDIT:: Link! http://www.theadminzone.com/forums/showpost.php?p=72933&postcount=28

[Brad.loo]

True but you should convert everything over to the new system anyway, I imagine the 'legacy mode' will mean a hit in preformance.

Legacy mode only enables some old things. Various things will still need to be changed.

[BassX]

Why was the Hand cursor taken out of the inline editing?

My thinking:

In the context of a website the Hand Cursor usually only requires a single click for it's action to take effect. The inline post editing currently requires a double click, so it is confusing to suddenly require a double click where a single click is usually required.

I think there still needs to be a better cue that inline editing is possible for given posts. As it stands now the normal pointer is provided for all posts (some can be edited inline and some can't). I'm not sure what the answer is but I haven't really given much thought to it.

I like the idea of one click then wait 2seconds, like IPS has done :) Very windows like.

[Ogden2k]

Or use the Handwritting cursor.

Edit: Why can't I tab to Post Quick Reply?

[TruthElixirX]

I figured as much. I won't be using Legacy Mode so I'm not to concerned.

[bfoot045]

I like the idea of one click then wait 2seconds, like IPS has done :) Very windows like.

I would rather just have click, there would not be a point to waiting at all when clicking to edit a post, the reason it was implemented was to make things faster. ;)

Well tonight is my guess, I can feel it. LOL. :)

[AzhriaLilu]

im noticing just of now that when i post the post count remains the same 133 :confused: wtf is wrong;)

I have a quick question:

I don't have a problem with installing a fresh copy of 3.5 especially seeing that the hacking community will be hard at work porting over everything.

I am concerned about a very customized style I have though. I am very proficient in coding though. Will 3.5 come with a nice set of instructions on which templates changed so I can add in the changes such as the AJAX stuff, Inline moderation, etc? I'm pretty sure I can figure most of it out -- just hoping something like this is included.

[YoungCoder]

I have a friend, who's pets sisters daughter's grandchilds fathers owners barber said it is going to be released within 5 mins :D

I'm pretty sure I can figure most of it out -- just hoping something like this is included.
the templates that have been edited are always listed in the topic when they put it out, also it will list what ones have new versions in your admin cp, so you can revert them and just add back your edits :)

[Winchester]

I have a friend, who's pets sisters daughter's grandchilds fathers owners barber said it is going to be released within 5 mins :D




I'm afraid that's too late for some ............. :( :D

[Steve Moore]

I really hope it is tonight because I don't work yet and I would have plenty of time to install it, upgrade my forums, and start to play. I have no installed any hacks because I have been waiting on a new version to come out much like 3.5. :D

Now lets see if it is tonight. Can we get a linch mob together if its not tonight? :p

hehe, just kidding.

Myth

[GrrrlRomeo]

Oh, y'all are spoiled! Just the idea of a new beta coming out within the year makes me feel all warm and fuzzy.

[Steve Moore]

So what if we are spoiled? I proudly admit, vbulletin has made me spoiled, blame them. LOL

[eXtremeTim]

Some of us are waiting on the new beta to start work on some new projects. ;) I cant wait to start working with vb 3.5. I know if it come out tonight I can forsee a good 48 hours without sleep just working with it. ;)

[WiBu]

Anytime after the 20th will do me fine. I'm not to rushed as I wont be putting the beta on my board... not worth the risk.

[Steve Moore]

I will be upgrading a test board then seeing how it ports with my templates and so on.

[womensden]

I think I am going to get mine all setup before I make it available to my members. I guess it all depends on how the upgrade goes with my template.

[eXtremeTim]

No matter what I have all the stuff I need to redo my templates ready to roll. So I can upgrade to 3.5 in no time at all. :)

[Chris M]

It's got 23 minutes for it to be the 7th June :p

They have a bit longer then that here. ;) They have 6 hours and 11 minutes here.

By my clock, it's only 5:41 pm. ;) June 6 for a while longer.

I just noticed that lol. My pc clock is ahead.

There seems to be a sudden buzz now, and Floris stopped saying "soon" ... in fact, has anyone seen a developer or a member of staff around this thread in the past few hours?

They are proble ready to go and just keep stopping in here to read this and see how much they have us squirming. lol

[FASherman]

Here's a hint...

The site will be running the beta release BEFORE its in the members area. In the past, thats been a 45-minute warning of impending release.

[Onimua]

Here's a hint...

The site will be running the beta release BEFORE its in the members area. In the past, thats been a 45-minute warning of impending release.
But the site's been running Beta for the past... two, three weeks?

[eXtremeTim]

No the site have been running the preview version.

Oh... well, techincalities. o_O

[daemon]

Here's a hint...

The site will be running the beta release BEFORE its in the members area. In the past, thats been a 45-minute warning of impending release.
That has been the case, but I don't think so for this version. I think this is so because they appear to have been updating the files on this server directly from CVS after a few bug changes; so if this continues to hold true, the site here will be running beta code just from running "cvs update;" the only thing that will have to be changed is the version number and template changes.

[FASherman]

Thats no different than any other release.

They'll update the site - even if it is via CVS - to the beta version before releasing it to us. As long as it says preview at the top and bottom, there is no release coming in the next hour.

Heck, I don't think its going to be released today anyway. I'm putting my money on Thursday PM.

[Steve Moore]

I find odd that no staff member has posted in a few hours, heck they could release it at 11:59:59 pm tonight and the statement would still be true of it being released tonight. hehe

[Jimmy Kane]

I think its close.
http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/bugs35.php?do=view&bugid=151&status=10

Seems the vB.de team have the code. And all they will do is change Preview to Beta as Daemon said they are running this from the CVS repository hense all the code is up to date.

[Steve Moore]

So close, yet so far. They have to be getting ready to release this to the public.

[Floris]

There seems to be a sudden buzz now, and Floris stopped saying "soon" ... in fact, has anyone seen a developer or a member of staff around this thread in the past few hours?It will be out soon, sooner then you think. Don't drool just yet before you dry up :)

It will be out soon, sooner then you think. Don't drool just yet before you dry up :)

So, it's already been released? ;)

Floris said "soon" again.

But at least now she said "sooner."

I think it will be out in 5 minutes. Come on, come ooooooooooooon *Crosses figners*

Bribes, I love them.

To LiveWire, sick in the head maybe. :D

My presense has absolutely nothing to do with any releases. If you haven't noticed, I tend to be on a lot - even when there is no imminent release. ;)

ps.. my ftp is read y to transfer files and my vbulletin member thingy is ready also

[Steve Moore]

I feel light headed, so a release is definately coming.

Kanye, I know, but shhh, don't tell Steve that, he might just tell us.

My FTP has been ready for an hour now, my member access page is closed until they have released it.

[KanyeWest]

Kanye, I know, but shhh, don't tell Steve that, he might just tell us.


dont worry i wont tell a soal:D

[Jimmy Kane]

I'm waiting for it to show Kier as "creating new thread in vBulletin Announcements"

[Floris]

To everybody, when I say soon that doesn't mean minutes or hours. It means within quite a short time. Which won't be a week or something like that, shorter. But who am I? Just support; if the developers need more time they will take that time. Nothing I can do about that. I am not even sure why people ask me :p But hey - I don't mind saying what I think might be possible: Soon .. and that still counts. I doubt it will be another week, and I am sure it won't be 5 minutes from now. But as I don't code the software it is just an assumption or a guess.

Sit tight, it will be sooner then you think, at least now you know it wasn't yesterday ---- one wrong answer closer to knowing when :)

[eXtremeTim]

Im waiting to see one of many things.

[eXtremeTim]

Id settle for anytime tonight by this point. Since its not out already im getting ready to head out with some friends for a while.

[Steve Moore]

Tim, going out would be a bad idea, just think if they release it within the hour, you wouldn't be around to find out until you got back then you would kick yourself for not being around at the time of release.

The release is important to me but im off to college in two weeks so hanging out with my friends for the last few times I will see them is important as well. I mean there is no promise that it will be out tonight no matter how bad we all want it.

[squall14716]

I don't see it being released tonight. This thread has already doubled the next largest thread in this forum and still no release.

[womensden]

Sorry to stray off topic, but my browser is doing "weird stuff" when I click on "new posts". Goes way off the page.

It does this in the test area because of some text wrapping issues (some threads that were recently posted).

[Steve Moore]

Somebody posted a large thread with a very long title so it does that. Man I am about to think I got my hopes up for nothing but I guess I can still wait for awhile longer. I'll hang around the thread for about 30 more minutes before I get going.

[Gilby]

It will be out soon, sooner then you think.

And I thought it was going to be out a couple days ago. ;)

[Omega Prime]

When is 2.3.0 coming out?

hahaha :D

Well, after waiting a bit for vB3.0 to originally get released, I can wait a bit longer for 3.5 ;)

[Steve Moore]

Well what are we supposed to talk about in this thread? Not much we can discuss other than the release time because thats all that is on our minds. But he pretty much sums it up that no release comes tonight. LOL Yes I am assuming.

[Gilby]

Being that the lead developers are in the UK (where it's 3:20 am), and that they are likely on a somewhat normal schedule, I doubt it's going to be tonight.... but then again, we all know that some projects can take all night and be released when the sun is just rising.

[FASherman]

Okay, I'll ask a question that makes sense...

The big selling point for me in 3.5 is the plugin system. My preference is to never install another hack again. If its not a plugin, I'm not installing it.

My current site is hacked 100 different ways to Sunday - and its a pain to upgrade. But since it is hacked, the database is far different than an unhacked board.

I'd like to start with a fresh copy of 3.5 instead of an upgrade to clean up the database. Will 3.5 (final, not beta) come with an 3.0.X importer? I sure hope so, otherwise, I'd have to upgrade and carry extra tables/fields that will have no use.

[polira]

I did a thread search but didn't see anything.

Will vB 3.5 be officially compatible with php5?

[darnoldy]

So it must be trueDutch butchers never lie!

There will be a 3.0.7 -> 3.5.0 and a 3.5.0 -> 3.5.0.

I knew one that lied about his weight.

He was 6ft 4 1/2 inches tall
He had size 12 shoes.
He had a 42 inch waste with a 40 inch inseam
His chest was 54 inches
What did he weigh?

[FASherman]

Yes.

There will be a 3.0.7 -> 3.5.0 and a 3.5.0 -> 3.5.0.

Great news, thanks.

You could discuss how to organize yourself to minimize this waste of time,
asking the same question over and over again? You could probably stop
spamming this thread so that for example my last question can be discovered

Hopefully I see Wednesday at the latest. I think today they were just making final preparations.

[Webnower]

Judging from the 3.5 Beta releases they had on vBulletin.org (they've since been hidden) I'd definitely say before the week is over. I thought for sure it'd be today, but maybe that was me thinking about the release of San Andreas for the PC... (Looks beautiful by the way)

[Cap'n Steve]
