vBulletin 3.5.2 Release Discussion

[Mike Sullivan]

This thread is for discussing the release of vBulletin 3.5.2.

Please use this thread to talk about things you like or installation experiences etc., but please do not use this thread to post troubleshooting queries or bug reports. These threads tend to grow very large and bug reports etc. tend to become lost and will not get attention from the support or development teams.

For troubleshooting and bug reporting, please use either the vBulletin 3.5 Bug Tracker (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/bugs35.php?) for reporting and tracking bugs, or the vBulletin 3.5.0 forums (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=100) for general queries and troubleshooting.

So whats been changed? What bugs have been fixed?

So whats been changed? What bugs have been fixed?
Please read the announcement for details.

[Kiren]

Is there a way to upgrade without losing your products/plugins?

[MRGTB]

Nice to see you reverted the radio buttons back to normal :cool:

[Michelle]

Thanks for the update :)
Although it's hell to update my hacked board :(

[Andreas]

Is there a way to upgrade without losing your products/plugins?
It depends on the Plugins, but generally all Plugins/Products should continue to work just fine.
However, you might have to modify Templates again, if those out-of-date now.

[Omri.L]

Hooray!!
Thanks vBulletin team :D

[Moparx]

great work as always! :D

[michaelbenson]

Thanks for the update :)

Why wasn't this "alter table" put into the 3.5.2 upgrade? Users will still need to manually run this "alter table" if they want to use avatars stored on filesystem.

I just did a 3.5.1 to 3.5.2 upgrade and everything went quick and smooth. Good job team!

[Enthonia Tech]

thanks for the update but what does

REQUIRE REVET : YES means ?

Code was modified. That query isn't necessary in 3.5.2.

Thanks for the update

Thanks Mike, I see the query was updated in fetch_avatar_url().

As with previous versions of vBulletin 3.5.x, vBulletin 3.5.2 requires a HARD REFRESH (Ctrl-R or Ctrl-F5) in all of your user's web browsers to get a fresh copy of the JavaScript files used by vB.

I noticed that Quick Edit was disabled until I did so.

I wish vB staff would use different javascript file naming for each version of the forum to prevent this. vbulletin351.js, vbulletin352.js, etc.

[smackLAN]

Patching vs upgrade...just as effective?

[Enthonia Tech]

Fatal error: Call to undefined function: fetch_gdinfo() in /home/webdtalk/public_html/forum/admincp/options.php on line 933

any idea what happened ?

[---MAD---]

thanks for update.. :)

[Andreas]

any idea what happened ?

Reload all files, at least your includes/adminfunctions.php is not up-to-date.

[telc]

I wish vB staff would use different javascript file naming for each version of the forum to prevent this. vbulletin351.js, vbulletin352.js, etc.

I second that. I have over 50,000 users and after a upgrade, it takes about a week until I stopping hearing that things are not working properly. I tell them to clear cache but most don't listen. Renaming the files when they are upgraded seems like a good idea.

There is no reason for that to have happened. 2 JS files changed from 3.5.1, and not having the changes for a little bit would simply prevent the bug fix from appearing. QE wasn't even changed...

[RoryF]

Upgrading now :). Thankyou :D

[whitetigergrowl]

Nice job. Thank you.

[Bubble #5]

what does

REQUIRE REVET : YES means ?
I don't know, but I clicked on it once and it wiped out all of my customizations :eek:

John - yes I believe that the patch is the same as an upgrade. The entire 3.5.1 package was not changed. Just certain files. Those certain files are in the patch :)

[beebi]

Thanks

[Mike Sullivan]

John - yes I believe that the patch is the same as an upgrade. The entire 3.5.1 package was not changed. Just certain files. Those certain files are in the patchNo, this is wrong.

The patch fixes security issues and that is it. Compare the files changed to the files in the patch -- you'd have to have the changes to all those files to be fully running 3.5.2.

[alajyal]

Thanks for this.

Thanks,
mat

[Rob-Morgan]

I cant believe it - no wonder most people dont upgrade. May as well wait a month and I can upgrade to 3.5.5.

[michaelbenson]

thanks for the update but what does

REQUIRE REVET : YES means ?
As with the new upgrade comes new functionality. Hence in order for vBulletin to optimally retain this functionality, such as Skype intergration a number of templates will have to be reverted. This means removing all customizations and changing the template back to the stored default for that specific version.

[Darkblade]

Thanks for the update guys. :)

[feldon23]

I cant believe it - no wonder most people dont upgrade. May as well wait a month and I can upgrade to 3.5.5. Only if you refuse to use the built-in upgrade migration features of vBulletin.

Use Plug-ins and Products to make code (PHP) changes to your forum and extend Usergroups, etc. These are preserved between forum upgrades.

Keep Template edits under control. If you want to change a few words, use the Language Manager -> Phrase Editor to change wording rather than touching the Template that phrase appears in.

Keep notes in a text file on your PC of your changes to various templates. At least keep a bookmark to every Plugin, Product, and Hack you've installed so that when you upgrade, not only can you easily find the template changes but you'll be able to quickly check if changes had to be made to those Plugins, Products, or Hacks, to work with the new version of vBulletin.

Use the Template Compare and Template History features which are built into vBulletin 3.5+ to see what THEY have changed so you can reflect those changes in YOUR templates.

If you want a maintenance-free vBulletin that you can keep up-to-date with 0 effort, DO NOT EDIT templates or PHP files!

[Floris]

I cant believe it - no wonder most people dont upgrade. May as well wait a month and I can upgrade to 3.5.5.
3.5.5 won't be out in one month from now. I recommend our customers to upgrade to 3.5.2.

[lolo]

I have a question when I want to update to 3.5.2 do I need to install my mods again?
Because I spend a lot of time to install those mods and I don't want do thm again.

[PN12]

Good job! Thanks :D

[fabianv]

Ah, my first update...


I purchased vbulletin for the first time at 3.5.1 so this is a first for me...

I happened to install a lot of plugins from vbulletin.org that has a lot of template changes so im very afraid of upgrading but i'll do it anyway..

out of curiosity.. was there any major edits made to forumhome, forumdisplay or navbar? a lot of my template edits exist inside those templates.

Also, is there some upgrade file I can download instead of the full thing from the members area? I cant find any upgrade button there, just the full install..

im such a noob :(

Can anyone help me out with regards to this upgrade procedure? :eek:

is there perhaps a file somewhere where we can see the exact changes to templates in this new upgrade?

I'd recommend checking out the vBulletin Documentation:
http://www.vbulletin.com/docs/html/upgrade

With regards to changes to forumdisplay, and forumhome, there are none so there isn't going to be any editing required there. And the navbar template only requires a certain phrase, (possibly repeated) to be replaced with another to help with the functionality of your forums. Check this (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showpost.php?p=1027246&postcount=3) post of the vBulletin 3.5.2 announcement thread for the exact information as to which templates you will be changing and what will be changed inside them too.

Patched only, thanks :)

Will look over the fixed bugs soon and see if it's worth me upgrading.

[mr_snob]

thank you very much

[eXaulz]

Wootness.

[Inocybe]

Why don't the upgrade script ask us to delete the install folder? Wouldn't that be the safest (even though it is customer number protected)?

BTW, this is my first upgrade, and it turned out just fine :)

[hobbes747]

Whatever page handles redirection was obviously overwritten when I uploaded the new files and the upgrade script isnt working because of it. What file is it pleasenthx?

[adb22791]

Hmm, the install script seems to be b0rked. Whenever I try to choose "empty database" as an option I get a page cannot be displayed error (this is my test board, so instead of upgrading I install a brand new version).
Anybody else experience the same problem?

Well, I'm curious, where exactly is the support forum (NOT the support contact form)? Is there a forum where one can go and throw a question out there without giving out server and FTP login information? I don't see the word "support" on the forums index.

I'm having the same problem, blank page on upgrade.php. ***I am NOT asking for support in this thread, since this is the incorrect forum***

[Gomjaba]

Nice, but since reverting templates is necessary I wont update from 3.5.1 to 3.5.2 ....I had a lot of work with 3.5 -> 3.5.1 because of the filechanges. If I would need to change all the templates again - it would be a mess and time consuming. Hence : no no ....

But thx. for the effords ..

Okay I have 3.5.1 installed and running. I am going to wait a little before doing a full upgrade to the board to see what bugs there are in this. But I have a question, I installed the 2 patches and my board still says I need to upgrade to 3.5.2 is this normal or when I installed the patches should that have changed?

Support ticket had already been submitted, I was simply asking if anybody else had had the same issue.

[michaelbenson]

Support ticket had already been submitted, I was simply asking if anybody else had had the same issue. But as a means of relevance it would be wiser to choose something more appropriate. I would personally recommend the vBulletin 3.5 Installation and Upgrades (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=106) forum for all questions regarding the upgrade.

[Rocol]

Another problem free Upgrade .. many thanks to all concerned :cool:

[sensimilla]

Thanks alot guys, right in time :)

[orban]

Updating took less than 30 seconds, all plugins work, no need to edit any files.

Just the templates too a bit of work since we added a few additional profile fields (to be displayed in the post fields, like flags and so on).

[Onimua]

I cant believe it - no wonder most people dont upgrade. May as well wait a month and I can upgrade to 3.5.5. I think one of the main reasons there was a 3.5.2 now was because of the security issues that needed to be dealt with. ;)

Will upgrade in a couple of hours. :D

[ChrisLM2001]

When will automatic updates be available! It's like every month now a new revision is made! lololol

Its a bad thing we update our products now?

No its a good thing, very good, he was just saying when will automatic updates come out that will do it automatically, he was making a joke basically because he is lazy....

[MRGTB]

He is a SHE :rolleyes:

[Transverse Styles]

Everything is peachy on our end. :)

[Squee]

I always love how simple it is to update vbulletin (especially now with the template history!)...the longest part of this upgrade was making a database backup beforehand...database soooo big ;) Everything's working great now :)

[Jassem]

Good job! Thanks

[gsm4arab]

Thanks a lot ......

good job ..

[Drago911]

very nice indeed........I love the new vb!! I upgraded and never lost a hack....saweeet!

[Dennis Olson]

This is just swell. I paid for you guys to upgrade my software, which was just done TWO DAYS AGO (by Colin), and now 3.5.2 is out? Needless to say I'm pretty upset by this.....

[Zachery]

Dennis, send a support ticket in.

[Reverend]

Upgraded ok.

Only problem i had during the upgrade was that my ISP decided to carry out network maintenance halfway through the process resulting in a 30 min lost connection.

[ChrisLM2001]

Its a bad thing we update our products now?

No, but an automatic (or manual) update option for those who want it can be MORE friendly. Sure beats trying to update twice a month to keep tabs on the newest releases.

With the plugin system it shouldn't be much of a problem with 3.5.x owners in losing customizations. And that's just corrected by saving a style (which that can be automatic as well, just save it in a 777 directory).

Easier to upgrade, easier folks will do so, and easier to keep folks from going...."sigh, is this going to be a 2 repeater upgrade this month?".

Chris

[Zachery]

Upgrade files, run upgrade.php, Its not too bad. (10~ min maybe). Its about as automatic as its going to get before we upload the files and run the upgrader by some sort of cron.

Took me an hour to install gallery2 yesterday, I do not look forward to updating that.

[TTG]

Upgrade went fine .. gallery update and cmps all working .. thanks for an easy update again :)

[DataAve]

Was the -log out log out- issue, non issue fixed?:rolleyes:

[ShawnV]

Patch installed thanks, are we to expect monthly upgrades, I can’t keep up at this rate with our fully modified site?

[sbryan]

god damn.. i only just did a major upgrade to 3.5.1 and then some pretty involved edits to the postbit_legacy template.. and now there's another new version out already?

there really needs to be some way that upgrades keep mods and hacks in place as im tipping a high % of forum owners have to spend countless hours every time theres a new release.. im getting pretty tired of it :(

[pank]

** nevermind ** ;)

[xbleed]

Upgrade went smooth, ran into very few template changes too. :)

Thanks guys.

ONE question though,

Is im_skype.gif the only new image?

I have several modifications installed and only had to redo the edits for one. The product/plugin system makes it so you don't have to re-edit your vB files on an upgrade.

There are template changes, yeah. But 90% of them aren't mandatory.

All in the misc directory. I think those are all the new images added...

[Onimua]

All done. :) Upgraded a couple of plugins I have installed as well, and everything seems to be working great; took around ten minutes. Only had one template to edit. :D

[QtrCafe]

Thanks alot vBulletin Team .. Downloading VB 3.5.2 ...

The problem is that end-users who need to upgrade for function/security issues may balk at even that task (try getting folks to update any program and keep them updated). What seems simple to some, isn't for others, who may be in the business as skinners and modders, who will have to deal with upset clients tired of so many revisions to avoid loss of function and getting hit by exploits.

Not everyone is a designer/modder/coder and to keep their forum up-to-date, especially if it's a choice between spending friday night changing their customizations, or spending it with their wife/girlfriend or other fun persuits.

These upgrades really need to be streamlined (automatic updates or manual updates and both by auto install method via ftp) so everyone is happy -- and they keep their forumware in tiptop condition (which helps on not getting more problem support tickets too!).

Chris

[1996 328ti]

I don't know how much easier it can be.
I updated 2 boards. One has ~5 plugins and another has 3.
The only thing I needed to edit were by vBadvanced files.

Before plugins I'd have to edit several different pages.
And editing the templates after reverting was simple.
I keep notes of all template changes.

Now granted I still use the default vB skin, but upgrading could not be simpler. I am no coder.

[CSS59]

damn it, I just updated to 3.5.1 :(

Chris

Do remember Chris, that the updates are designed around people using clean unhacked forum board, which would make updating easy. There is no way the updates can be designed to work easy with everybodies hacked boards. As some will use just a few hacks while others have heavy modded boards.

I have a heavy modded board, and becuase of this I choose not to update at all anymore and just accept what I have (that's my choice). I don't blame Jelsoft because I understand that there updates are intended for clean unhacked boards. The fact that my board is heavy hacked making it more or less impossible to update now was my choice which I accept.

[ChrisLM2001]

This is 3.5.x, Gary. If there's any hacks that's not a plugin, then they can elect to manually update, but others can just plain upgrade automatically (this is suppose to be the beauty of having the plugins -- might as well exploit it's usefulness). lol

And styles can just be automatically saved to a 777 directory -- just pull it from the database like CSS files and save it in the same folder -- before updating.

Now for 3.0.9 series on down, yes upgrades have to be done by hand.

ADDED: and it'll also make use of the "call home" feature which folks tend to remove. This time it'll report if an update is ready to install <-- more folks would be interested in keeping that feature untouched -- and gives something no nulled board can offer!

Chris

[wnxwakko]

Very nice as always.

[Quillz]

How exactly does the Skype integration work? Skype is sort of like Google Talk, right? So members can chat in real time with one another over vB? Or does 3.5.2 only allow for Skype info?

[jsharper]

In addition to the daily/weekly digest fix in includes/function_digest.php, the rerelease also appears to have an updated includes/functions_newpost.php related to the ignorelist.. possibly related to bug 1780?

diff from this morning's release of 3.5.2 to one just downloaded:


736c736
< " . ($userid ? "CONCAT(' ', usertextfield.ignorelist, ' ') NOT LIKE ' " . intval($userid) . " ' AND" : '') . "

Upgrading from 3.5.1 to 3.5.2 won't be a template-pain-in-the-beeper because the changes to templates are not as much as when going from 3.0 to 3.5.

[Floris]

How exactly does the Skype integration work? Skype is sort of like Google Talk, right? So members can chat in real time with one another over vB? Or does 3.5.2 only allow for Skype info?
Yes, Skype is a VOIP solution so you can voice chat over the internet with others. You can actually have a real phone number, or call someone in other side of the world at local costs instead of international costs. Just Skype to Skype is free. Google Talk also has a Call feature, which is also VOIP. Both Skype & Google Talk have IM. Google Talk is still in beta and Skype is released stable.

[Floris]

Upgrade went smooth, ran into very few template changes too. :)

Thanks guys.

ONE question though,

Is im_skype.gif the only new image?
What you could do is upload all the files, and skip the images/ directory.
Then upload the images/ directory, but don't overwrite; Instead, let it skip existing files. It will then not touch your existing files, and only upload the new files. That's what I usually do.

[john_robot11]

looks good.

[Gomjaba]

Oh - a friend of mine just got in trouble ..

Don't forget when uploading your files : You get a new index.php so when you run portals such as vbadvanced and using those index.php (like me, both in same folder / root in domain) don't forget to save your old index.php

[Aligator21]

Great Job!!!!
All gone just fine from 3.5.1 to 3.5.2 :D :D

Thank you!

[davewinfield]

Thanks for the update, and the patch to get us by until I get time to install the update :)

Love your work..

[good2laugh]

What exactly is it calling upon when we use control home in the admin panel - this takes forever, well 5 mins, but that is a long time on broadband. The rest of the admin panel is fine as is the site so assume this is calling something from this site? Version number or something? If this is the case what do I do to remove it ?

Start a new support ticket requesting instructions on how to do this and we will review the request. As per license agreement we have a call home feature that checks for registration integrity.

Yes/No radio buttons changed back to horizontal orientation
The line break added between the yes and no options in the admin control panel has been removed. Yes/no rows will now look as they did in previous versions.
Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Upgrade went off without a hitch, as usual. Thanks once again for a well packaged release, Jelsoft.

[Nitro_007]

Will there be any problem using the patch on a 3.5.0 + 3.5.1 patches ?

I had a very good idea there would be a pre christmas update dont really fancy running a full update till after the hols or maybe even not till 3.5.3, guessing that will be around late Jan to early Feb.

[Quillz]

Yes, Skype is a VOIP solution so you can voice chat over the internet with others. You can actually have a real phone number, or call someone in other side of the world at local costs instead of international costs. Just Skype to Skype is free. Google Talk also has a Call feature, which is also VOIP. Both Skype & Google Talk have IM. Google Talk is still in beta and Skype is released stable.
So does 3.5.2 just allow you to exchange Skype info? Or can users actually talk to one another within vB itself?

[Zachery]

The skype IM icons work just like the AIM / MSN icons.

[Quillz]

Alright, thanks.

[C_P]

Worked perfectly! So far no loss of plug-ins that I see yet.... but 51 Style reverts waiting for me! GULP:eek:

[catocom]

I decided to just patch mine for now.
I did it before that last little fix in the am this morn.
Since I just patched, do I need to do anything different now?

[TheMusicMan]

Yup - I upgraded one of my sites to vB3.5.1 a few days ago, and upgraded this morning to vB3.5.2 without problems (well...none relating to vB;))

Here's an interesting question for the vB Development / Product managers: Have you ever considered a phased/dated release schedule instead of an arbitrary/function related release schedule? Just curious that's all.

I work on several large projects and have good relationships with suppliers with whom I work with on a daily basis... they have often changed their release schedules from functional to dated. I fully appreciate there are pro's and con's for each and am just wondering if you have considered amending your policy.

Cheers guys...

[Zonex]

Barring any security issues that come up this is the last release before 3.6. This is the real maintenance release that kinda finalizes 3.5.

[Telegon80]

does this update address the security issue concerning the avatar upload vulnerability?

[Zachery]

3.5.1 did.

You'd get the fixes from 3.5.1 as well by upgrading to 3.5.2

[Techguy1]

oh great, now I have to re-upload files again. Could have at least made it 3.5.2.1 or something...

[joshx]

would it be possible to have added/changed/removed images listed in the release announcements? i'm sure i wouldn't be the only one to find this useful.

otherwise, the upgrade went fine. thanks. :)

[Tailfeathers]

I really like these small upgrades that not only include bug fixes but also a few small features and improvements. It makes my users happy to see they have a little something new to play with (or that's better) pretty frequently, instead of just big releases once or twice a year, even something small like the Skype feature. Thanks. :)

That said: You should upgrade from v* to 3.5.2 using the upgrade.php file.

[gregsbaby64]

Patched for the time being, thanks for offering that patch! :)

Thanks for the upgrade - took a big upgrade going from 3.0.10 to 3.5.2 and all appears to have gone well.

...but please do not use this thread to post troubleshooting queries or bug reports. These threads tend to grow very large and bug reports etc. tend to become lost and will not get attention from the support or development teams.

For troubleshooting and bug reporting, please use either the vBulletin 3.5 Bug Tracker (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/bugs35.php?) for reporting and tracking bugs, or the vBulletin 3.5.0 forums (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/forumdisplay.php?f=100) for general queries and troubleshooting.

[feldon23]

do i need to change the things that comes in the announcement, upload the files that been changed only also and run the upgrade ?? to get the update ??

or I have to upload all the files???

mine is 3.5.1 ... If you have NOT modified any Templates and have NOT modified any PHP files, then you should do the full upgrade which means uploading every file from the ZIP to your website.

If you have modified files and templates and do not have time to do a full upgrade but want to be secure, download the Patch and follow the instructions.


If you have modified any Templates listed in the 3.5.2 announcement and want to do a proper upgrade, you must look at the list of changes and see if "Requires Revert" is indicated and use the build in Template Compare and Template History features to synch your changes with the upgrades. If you don't, then your forum may have some limited functionality.

Every template you customize increases slightly the amount of time it takes to do each forum upgrade. Going "hog wild" is not recommended. ;)

[feldon23]

Is there going to be v3.5.3 or what? Minor point releases (3.5.1, 3.5.2, etc.) of vBulletin almost invariably come out when a security vulnerability has been found and needs to be fixed. The fact that each point release also contains other non-critical bug fixes and minor features/corrections is purely coincidential.

If you do not have time to stay up-to-date, use the security patches.
If you are hoping each little point release will come packed with new features, you'll always be disappointed.


I believe the development plan is always to shoot for another major point release (3.6, 4.0) and work on it until done, test the heck out of it, and then release it. There is no master plan for a 3.5.3 with "a few new features".

[ABLady]

I'm trying to translate vB into another language. Every time I'm almost done, out comes another version with the language package being changed!

I thought the whole idea of having a seperate language pack is so that people like me would not have to keep changing and correcting their language packages.

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad:

[feldon23]

1. Import your language pack (3.5.0?)
2. Upgrade the forum to vBulletin 3.5.2.
3. Export the upgraded language pack.
4. Translate the 5-10 new phrases in 3.5.2.
5. You now have a 3.5.2-compatible language pack.

:mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: :mad: 1. Relax.
An older language pack will work just fine with a newer vBulletin. The only thing that will be missing is any phrases that have been corrected or added since.

2. Import your language pack (XML file) into vBulletin 3.x.

3. Upgrade the forum to vBulletin 3.5.2.
It will populate your language with the new phrases in 3.5.2.

4. Export the upgraded language pack (XML file).

5. Translate the new phrases.
Search the file for 3.5.1, 3.5.2, etc.

6. You're done! You now have a 3.5.2-compatible language pack.

[Zachery]

Minor point changes should not have a large issue with language, big version changes may have issues. 3.5.0-2 shouldn't have any massive changes as far as phrases go.

[RagnarokDensetsu]

Perfect timing! Released just as I got my license info.

You must have planned it ;)

Thanks! :)

[slinky]

OK -- I'm going to 3.5.2 from 3.0.7 and was wondering about what the "see the 3.0.11 announcement" meant. I didn't see anything regarding installation issues and wonder whether you mean we should see this due to the patching of a weakness that could potentially be exploited. Good to know, but perhaps best worded as an "FYI" when in an area for installation. :D

I can appreciate highlighting 3.11. I had a script recently exploited where some Chinese company was trying to manipulate stocks by using a "tell a friend" php file that had a $subject variable for mailing and inserting hundreds of email address and content about major press releases for a penny stock. Beware of this one guys. It's now rampant.

File edits? Ugh. Do everything you can to minimize them.

Did you use the Template Compare and Template History features?

[baji26]

I used the compare and history merge system but I messed up my first 2 templates. modifyprofile_birthday and editpost is there anyway I can get those templates again so that I can do the merger now I know how to work it?

[feldon23]

You lost your customized versions of those templates completely?

Have you got a backup of your forum? If so, you can go digging through there and find your versions of those templates and re-paste them into the template editor.

That, and use the support forums, or file a ticket, for assistance with your forum upgrade.

If those templates were not customized before the upgrade, they are in the 3.5.2 format now.

Getting this on my ACP homepage:

Out-of-Date Custom Templates Found!

There are currently 2 customized template(s) that need to be updated or reverted. Some sections of vBulletin may not function if you do not do this!

editpost
Default Template Updated in 3.5.2 by Template Merge System
Your Custom Template Last Edited in 3.5.1 by Baji26

modifyprofile_birthday
Default Template Updated in 3.5.2 by Template Merge System
Your Custom Template Last Edited in 3.5.1 by Baji26


When I click the compare button there is no difference in templates.

If there is no difference, then just 'revert' them.

I have the 3.5.1. since a week. a OWNED licence.
There is no Dutch language pack for the 3.5.1. OR the 3.5.2., that is what the support said me.
So I have to translate the whole forum ?
More than 8000 phrases ?

And in wich directory I have to upload it with FTP ?

Any 3.5 release works with any 3.5 release.
That is why there is an option on the import page that reads: Ignore version? Yes/No

Set this to yes and you can import the xml

Floris,

Thanks for the advice.
I have succesfully changed into Dutch !!!
However, I want to set two languages. When I set it on English (US) I get the version I have partly translated. How to get a non translated English version ?
I tried to delete the English with Admin CP, and redownload a new, but I still see the English version I already partly translated.

Upgrade went smooth - no problems.

[daveconz]

Just want to say that I feel the frustration expressed by many people about the frequency of upgrades. I am not complaining about the upgrades - just making an observation. I'm sure the team does not release upgrades gratuitously and I understand that this type of script must stay on top of security issues.

At the same time it must be acknowledged that vB does require a lot of work to keep current. I always recommend vB when clients ask "which forum software?" but I tell them they need to set aside every second Saturday for performing upgrades.

I'm exaggerating but sometimes it really does feel like that :(

[wii]

Well, I upgraded to vBulletin because it has all the features I need without hacking the code, and upgrades are easy to perform in a forum without hacks you don´t really need.

[timmed]

both forums I am an admin on upgraded smoothlessly, well, one not so smoothly but that was fixed rather quickly after it was noticed :p

[Mr_Butter]

I don't feel like upgrading :\

[Arkham]

If you want a maintenance-free vBulletin that you can keep up-to-date with 0 effort, DO NOT EDIT templates or PHP files!

I wonder if it's ever going to be possible to allow updates on customized templates if the exact code string is found. I'm sure there would be problems with shorter strings that appear more than once within a template, but I think it might be an option worth exploring.

[jeremycs]

I have too many custom mods... I'm just going to patch 3.5.1 for now.

I noticed you added functions_digest.php and functions_newpost.php but you did not add it to 351_patch.zip

Are those not that important as patching class_dm_user.php and class_upload.php, or was that just an oversight?

Thanks

[Reg Carter]

Please use this thread to talk about things you like or installation experiences etc.,

This is probably a really novice question but why is it when I goto download the 3.5.2 upgrade that it doesn't let me specify a folder. Once I hit download it just downloads to a temporary folder (where ever that is) and unless I extract it and play with it right then and there it dissapears (from me anyway).

Being able to specify a folder for it to be download into would make it easier to find and move around.

I have a tech guy that handles all my tech stuff, but he doesn't have access to the VB download section. Only I do. So I have to download it, then extract it, then upload the extracted version to our FTP (It takes ages). If I could simply have the Zipped file download to where I want it would speed things up. I could just upload a zipped file to the server instead of an extracted one.

Thanks Reg

Because those aren't part of the patch. The patch does not make your 3.5.1 forum a 3.5.2 forum. It fixes 1 security flaw.

Mike where would these patches be? seems I cant find them No, this is wrong.

The patch fixes security issues and that is it. Compare the files changed to the files in the patch -- you'd have to have the changes to all those files to be fully running 3.5.2.

I want to know, if I upgrade to 3.5.2, am I going to have to change 100 more template hacks, etc. before I have a secure, stable version?
None of your hacks are compatible with vBulletin 3.5. vB3.5 uses Plug-ins instead of Hacks.

Because otherwise I would just download 3.0.3, but I read that it has major template upgrading work to get to 3.5.2, so I'd rather get it over with now, if I can.You're on 3.0.2? There are dozens of security vulnerabilities in your forum!!!

To be secure, you must at LEAST install the patches for
vB3.0.3, vB3.0.4, vB3.0.5, vB3.0.6, vB3.0.7, vB3.0.8, vB3.0.9, vB3.0.10, vB3.0.11. You won't have a 3.0.11 forum, it will still be a 3.0.2 forum, but it will have all the security fixes of the mentioned versions.

thanx so much 4 ur help You have to enter your customer number and password; not the one used on these forums.

The information requested there is sent in the email you get after purchasing vBulletin (here: http://www.vbulletin.com/order). Only when you bought a vBulletin license wil you be able to access the Member Area and download the software. :)

Step 1: Buy a license
You can do so here: http://www.vbulletin.com/order/

Step 2: Login to members area
You can do so here: http://members.vbulletin.com/

If you already have a license, you can skip step 1. You will receive an email after your purchase, which holds customer details. Those are the details you need to complete step 2.

Step 3: Download & Install, or upgrade.
You can do so by following the instructions from the announcement and from here: http://www.vBulletin.com/docs/html/
