The Links forum has been cleaned up, and an Index has been created. :wub:


We've all been waiting for the full software upgrade of Invisionfree (This forums host) to Zetaboards, and it seems we are finally getting closer, the first BETA test has begun, soon all forums will be moved onto the BETA test.

We will? When?

Sadly, no idea.

Few weeks -> Month?

What's the big improvement, by the way?

Hmm, well this software (IPB1.3) will be completely scrapped.

Of course its got to have the usual stuff, PM system, Warn system etc. etc.

If you want the rather vague feature list, have a look here

wrote:Why the new name ZetaBoards?
InvisionFree did not fit the name of our new software, as it isn't being based on Invision Power Board at all.

What's he hinting at...? Zetaboards?

wrote:Will v2.0 have a built in skin chooser?
Yes.

Skin chooser?! <_<

wrote:Will the public folder size be increased from 16MB?
Yes.

Yay. Now I can be lazy and not delete stuff for longer!

wrote:Will every new board under IF 2.0 come with preinstalled word filters?
Word filters won't come preinstalled. However, there will be packs to install.

...How long does it take to install a patch?

wrote:Will there be new default smilies?
We are making our own smileys to replace IPB's. These smileys will look good against both dark and light backgrounds

More smilies!

I assume they will be available in the ACP, and that you activate the ones you want.


This is a quote from Seth who is an admin over at Invisionfree Support:

Damm...

And the fact they are knocking out a hundred bugs a weeks means there are huge amouts of bugs to start out with...

Indeed

Is there a boards equavalent of an open Beta?

Do you mean a place where people can go and test it out?

Not yet, but there will be soon.

Meh.

We shall await the promised salvation.

More Smilies!
