    These are the template changes since 3.6.0 ONLY

    If you are not running 3.6.0 yet, there are significantly more changed templates than are listed here. Use "Find Updated Templates" to find the templates that have changed and incorporate those changes. You may even wish to start with a default style!

    Note:

    You need to only look through this post for templates you have customized. You do not need to take any action to ensure that your uncustomized templates are the latest versions.

    If you find a template you have customized in this list, you will likely want to include the changes made here. However, this is not always required. Under each change listed here, you will see "requires revert?" This refers to whether the changes are mandatory (yes). If the changes are mandatory, things will break if you do not incorporate the changes made. It is strongly recommended that you revert and recustomize any templates that say they require a revert.

    Additionally, you may wish to use the "Find Updated Template" feature in the control panel to find templates that have been changed since your last edit to them.

    vBulletin 3.6.1 Released

    vBulletin 3.6.1

    vBulletin 3.6.1 is primary a bug fix release, superseding 3.6.0. Over 100 bugs have been fixed since the release of 3.6.0. Additionally, some small features were added to 3.6.1 in response to customer feedback. These changes are discussed below.

    If you are not aware of the improvements of 3.6 over 3.5, there is a thread available here that discusses all of the changes.

    Changes of Note Since vBulletin 3.6.0
    • Admin CP News System - additional information beyond the latest version can now be delivered to you when you visit your admin control panel. We will be using this system to make you aware of product updates and other important company information. Once you have read a piece of news, you can "dismiss" it so it won't appear again.
    • Infraction System: Infraction Extension - when the same type of infraction is received twice, the second offense can now be tacked on to the first one, extending the length it's valid for. For example, a user is given an infraction for spamming posts that expires in 1 day. An hour later this user is given another spamming posts infraction. Since the user already had an active spamming posts infraction, this new infraction's expiration time is added to the end time of the previous infraction. Effectively, this new infraction will now end 1 day and 23 hours later instead of the default of 1 day.
    • Infraction System: Automatic Bans - users can now be moved to banned usergroups. A stepped system can be implemented such that increasing number of points or infractions results in lengthening ban perioids.
    • RSS Import Improvement - the RSS import system now handles several common but invalid RSS formats. Compatibility with character sets is also improved.
    • CAPTCHA for Guest Searches - you may now optionally force guests to prove they are human before searching
    • HttpOnly Cookies to Prevent XSS Attacks - certain cookies will no longer be available to JavaScript, which prevents many XSS attacks from stealing data. PHP has also accepted our patch to add this feature to PHP 5.2.0.
    • Podcast Improvements - several podcast options can now be set per thread rather than just per forum
    • "Search This Thread" Improvements - additional options are now available for when using "Advanced Search" from "Search This Thread"
    • Improved Event Ordering - ordering of events is much improved when grouping events by date on the front page and when viewing events on the calendar daily/weekly/monthly views.
    PHP and MySQL Requirements

    Please note that vBulletin 3.6.x requires at least PHP 4.3.3 and MySQL 4.0.16 or later.

    Installing or Upgrading vBulletin

    Please see the appropriate manual sections: Installing vBulletin and Upgrading vBulletin.

    Template Changes

    Many templates have changed since previous versions of vBulletin (3.5.x and 3.6.0) in order to accommodate new features. As a result, you will need to revert several templates or some areas of your board will not function.

    If you are currently running 3.6.0, you may see below for a list of template changes between 3.6.0 and 3.6.1.

    Bug Reports

    You may report bugs by clicking here. Before reporting a bug, please attempt to recreate the bug on a default, uncustomized style (especially if your errors are JavaScript related). Additionally, if you have used the plugins/products system at all, please attempt to recreate the issue with the plugins system disabled!
