vBulletin 2.0.0 Released - Discuss

[Kier]

You've read the announcement, tell us what you think. :)

[JamesUS]

WOOOHOOO!!! :)

[Crumm]

Looks very nice, even considering I have a ton of graphics to redo :)

How long is the turnaround on getting the UBB6 import script emailed out, and why can't it just be posted in the Members Area like the software itself?

Kind of cruel, all excited to finally get the gold version, and now still stuck waiting for a darn script :(

[Silviu]

Installed in 4 mins after was released, all went ok. New colors are great :) Now start working on 2.1 :)

[Chris Schreiber]

Another wonderful release!!

[Sharg]

Hi,
I suggest you put on the front page a DIRECT link to the BBS comparison chart.
It this this page that really helps understand why VB is so much rich thant the other board, and people can miss it.

[Madison]

WOW! Great job!

I`m proud to use a vBulletin, the best Forumsoftware around the World!:D

[The_Sisko]

Installed it on my testboard in 5 min and got NO errors, will redo the new and changed template and then go to my real board.

Nice work!!! Thanks to all in the team and keep doing such a great job!!!!!!

THANX

[Hooper]

COOL...... Downloaded 1 sec after release (major refreshing in the Members Area and caught it in the transition.:) ) Installed with templates converted 4min. 12sec flawlessly.


Looks SUPERB.....Thank You and KUDOS!!;)

[chrispadfield]

amazing, nothing more to it.

worth the wait? would have been worth waiting another year.

kudos to the whole team!

I agree. The comparison chart is real nice and truthful (in comparison to UBB. No experience with the others). It should be highly advertised from the front page. Maybe some big red star with "Come see the differences" that stands out. This will help people so they don't waste the big bucks on the competitions software like I had to do. :mad: :eek: ;)

[jojo85]

JUST ONE THING
I LOVE YOOOUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU :)

[Kier]

We love you too Geoffrey ;):rolleyes:

[WebAddict]

I tried a fresh install and it went super smooth... Great work guys!!! My site has been waiting for our new layout and version!!! Thanks again...

[evoir]

okok I'll calm down. :D

[Streicher]

:confused: :confused: :confused:
Installation works fine, but look at http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?threadid=17479

With BeyondCompare I found 98 (!) changed templates.

[Deaths_Calling]

is there gona be lots of colour icons in it like, cant check at boarding school so i cant download, thats probable how i got the first anouncement of it out at LOOK HERE (http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showthread.php?s=&threadid=17433&perpage=15&pagenumber=4) saying(ITS HERE YAY hopefully i win)

[tamarian]

How was the system load at 1800? :)

Will install after migrating hacks/templates etc. But from prior upgrades, all betas and RC's, it should be smooth.

Thanks guys!

[robertusss]

you guys rock...
...as usual ;)

[Nicholas Brown]

Guys, I love it its cool - Id say I love you but considering your all male and Im not that way - I wont.

Upgraded my localboard no problems - first time install on my live site (I messed up RC3) - again, no problems.

Beers for the UK Team :D

[Fred]

I'm downloading the script, wish me luck in upgrading.

[fruitsalad]

wonderful!!

I knew I'd run the risk of missing something if I actually got some sleep at night

Sleep is counterproductive ppl!!~ :D


luvly luvly

dude! that's exactly how i feel!

[klisis]

That was smooth upgrade.

[Fred]

I downloaded the .php3 version, and inside all the files, you've got global.php - you need to change it to global.php3

[Redemption]

Went damn smooth.
Looks blue now rather than purple
That or my monitor just had a stroke, though truth be told, I enjoy the blue over purple.
Only snag was the upgrade from RC3 instructions say to upload all of the files, which I did, tried running upgrade9.php and it gave me an error about install.php, duh, go delete it, so I did.
But obviously for an upgrade you shouldn't upload the install file.
All went good, now time to customize and decorate, thanks for the hard work.

[Sven]

Upgraded my local testboard w/o any problem ;)

Now going for the production server ;)

Great Job DevTeam, Congrats :)

Hmmm... did you adapt any of the 3D-Style-Graphics from our Forums???? :D

[RobAC]

I'm definitely speechless here. I just finished upgrading my forums. All went well. What really makes me psyched is that because I wanted an entirely new/fresh install, I copied all my modified templates and reverted back to the original/new ones and started over. I found that there were very few templates I had to modify and the overall forum structure/framework is leaner and meaner. :D

You guys did an AWESOME job!

[Fred]

Damn, my boards got some weird error.. Now I need to fix this.. Damn

[snyx]

I just woke up, and I left my browser to the forums all night (yeah im a geek) and WOW, look at the members online, and kier LOVE the look! Well let me run and download it now, hee hee, WOOOOOWHO!!!

[Kayn]

Awesome job guys. I'm already using it, all smooth and stuff (aside from some font thingys I gotsta change)

http://pluh.com/forums/

Woo! I are happy!

[inetd]

GREATEST WORK! :) THIS IS SUPER!!!
vB 2.0 - RuleZZZ forever!
development team - I LOVE YOU! YOU ARE THE BEST OF THE BEST! New color, image, feauters - very good!

I wait for new release (2.1) of vB!!!!
;) :) :D :cool:

[CoolaShacka]

Thank You :) :D :) :)


Let's See where can I get the german Templates for it...

[GMTalk]

Thanks guys.

I am in Awe. I have done the upgrade on a site I am a co-owner on and have installed it in my test forum to get the templates the way I want.

ALl I can say is wow. I am speachless. It is nice and smooth. No errors.

Keep up the great work. Now just to get those .psd files. ;)

[fastforward]

I've been so busy at work today I haven't had a chance to download it. So as I've no chance of being among the first to upgrade, I'm gonna try and be the last :D

The new colours & icons are much nicer by the way. I might even use these instead of stealing the ones from my other board. :)

[Steve_S]

Congrats and my very best wishes on the "Gold"

Fantastic work GEEKS!:)

Upgrade from RC 3 to Gold was perfecto.

[EXCHANGE]

Grats for vB 2 Gold :D

Upgrade worked fine :)

[SystemLogic]

Works great, just purchased a 2nd license for my other site!

But where are import scripts?!? Nobody answered why they aren't just posted in the members area?

When will John send it out?

It's like sitting here waiting......ughh...boo me want import script now, so me can use forum!

[slinky]

Wow.... It's very pretty.

One thing... you forgot to change the image that shows up on the default vbulletin.com page which still shows up in purple.

[alsakher]

Great jop

wonderful release


Nothing better than ............. the GOLD !

:) :) :) :) :) :) :)

[jookido]

I was under the impression that customized templates that have a new "View Original" would be in RED text?

All blue to me...:confused:

[Wizzo]

A big thumbs up to the vBulletin team. Seamless upgrade from 1.1.6 and I think most of our users are in shock with the new version's features. Absolutely top work guys... keep it up!

Gonna keep our web monkees busy with updating the graphics tho... will keep them out of my hair for a while at least :)

[MarkG]

amazing stuff!!

upgraded from rc3 to final and imported 10k logins and 300k posts in 2.5 hours :)

http://apolyton.net/forums/

[Ewan]

Great work guys!! :D

[orca]

I just love it. The upgrade went great. 30 min and I had it up with all the hacks I had. No loss of data. Great job again :D

[pestilence]

well worth it great job and kudos all round..:D :D

[Mika]

Aaah.. finally the final-version. And really I like the new layout. (Except the Netscape-layout bug at least in the reply-to topic-page) Anyway.. Great stuff guys!

However.. I thought that there were supposed to be like 10 (?) different color themes in the final version? not to mention.. Stars-hack? Where is that.. I thought that that should be also in final-version.

[HondaBoard]

** UPDATE **
I found a previous post with the "?step=3" instruction. Worked great!

Had Candidate 3. Uploaded all the files and ran upgrade9.php.

Everything seemed to go smoothly. The board is running fine, except the bottom of the page still says "Release Candidate 3".

Did the upgrade actually occur? I'm assuming that the up/down arrow when sorting messages would indicate the upgrade occured.

Thanks!

[Dream]

im *very* impressed with the new layout and the new cartoon-like images. great job Jelsoft! that proves that theres still good things to add to forums that no one has thought of. :) imho

congratulations once again. :)

They were planning to release 10 style sets in the members' area - it hasn't happened yet but I believe they are still planning to.

As said many times, it will make its' debut in v2.1.

[slinky]

The different styles aren't essential. I'll tell you what really ticked me off though ... you guys at vB made those really cool new buttons which forced me to redo my entire site in order to "keep up with the Joneses." My old buttons started to look lame!!! I've been forced to pay the price and redo all my other buttons because you guys decided to give 110%!!! :D LOL. Spent all night last night and got the basics done, had to change colors, but I think it looks cool.... oh yeah. Thanks for great release. :D

[YellowKard]

Yeah I also think the new images were a good idea for a release ;)

[Ninboy]

I know that this Post maybe need that are here, but in this forum, the admins not create a Discusion for the vBulletin Documentation Anoucement.

Well, in the file vBulletin 2 Graphics Development Kit(zip, ~ 200KB), the vBulletin_logo Photoshop image, aren't here. But I need it.

Thanks

Exactly how I felt. Went from Gold to Yellow, from ok graphics to better, and at first I was a ticked too :mad:. All I wanted was bug fixes. But after re-evaluating the situation for the last day and working towards redoing the graphics (colors), I have come to the conclusion that it was more than worth it and 2.0 Gold can be called just that. GOLD. Much more than I can say for the experience I had with a vB competitor just a short while back. vBulletin gives "Gold" a new meaning and the others are lame in comparison.

Now that is a better attitude. No? ;)

Thank You!

No? ;) Thank You! Heheh, I need to be a little more strategic with smilies and include them generously. :) I think the graphics are very cool although I may end up going back to the gold look. The gradients make it more challenging to use good colors and properly colorize and stylize. My site looks needs more tweaking but the new buttons I created based on the new VB buttons are way cool! :cool: The pain in the butt is that those VB boys compelled me to work again once I saw the release -- but after the initial shock I realized immediately how great it is to work once more when the results are raising the bar yet again and significantly.

[tamarian]

Hmm, can't find the graphics in the member's area?

Oops, found it. I was looking in the download area! :)

[snyx]

I love the resourcues! THANKS!

[Ninboy]

bUT I NEED THE VBULLETIN_LOGO.PDF..... 'CAUSE IN THE FILE .ZIP, ISN'T

[CGiFORCE]

damn good u finally got it out :)
also please to see that there are new graphics, and the dev kit :)
very handy!

[Kier]

The vBulletin logo is not in the graphics developer kit, as we would rather expect you to put your logo, not ours, at the top of your forums.

[CGiFORCE]

i agree with ya on that one Kier..
but if you don't wanna change the design on the logo, just the text, it would be handy, for the ppl that aint so stable in gfx..
myself don't need it, have my own :D

[SneakyDave]

Thanks for the dev kit and the step by step! You won't get that from anywhere else!

I created my own on/off gifs at auctioncrotch.com. I'll be working on more sets later!

[KC5UYW]

I am quite pleased with the final release ... kudos to everyone!

[mjames]

Upgrade from RC 1 to Gold 2.0.0 went very smooth. Great job!

[JWilliams]

I'm curious .. Why would one upgrade from RC3 to Final? Other than some cosmetic changes (much smoother look & feel,) there were only 3 functional changes (I can see) in the final 2.0 release. Is it that big of a difference? What are the pros/cons?

I know RC3 is a beta, but is it that buggy?

Other than it being much "prettier" (which works for me ;) I have to justify the reason to my company to upgrade.

Thanks!

[tubedogg]

There were various improvements around the board, including a number of bug fixes. You also would need to upgrade to Final to receive any sort of support, either on these boards or "official" support via vbulletin.com/support.
