- - vBulletin 3.7.1 Released (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=180692)

The bi-monthly upgrade release schedule is in direct response to alot of people asking for a tentative schedule at vb.com, so they can plan accordingly. It was asked for. The people who don't need it or want it of course are going to gripe about it.

I'm betting that if the devs don't feel that an upgrade is warranted, there won't be one. It's just a guideline. If people plan for one, and it isn't needed, there's a pleasant surprise.

Ohiosweetheart, it was asked by the 'regulars' on vbulletin.com. There are plenty of people and big companies who run a vBulletin forum and haven't participated on the vB forums -- so how is it asked for by the majority? Just the regulars on vB.com. I just think that it's the small minority who are very loud. The majority don't visit the vB forums, let alone vote for new features ect.

Baldilocks, I explained why it messed your style up in post #45. :)

No one forces you to upgrade every time - its your choice - so whats the issue ?

Like I say, it's an opinion LOL.

All I'm saying is if patches for the fixes were given too, that way, anyone running custom skins, which is a large majority, can upgrade with ease. I know there's no pleasing everyone, that's why you should see both sides of the story....

Lets just move on.......... huh?

What kind of "patches" are you talking about?

Bug fixes or security updates. Also this wouldn't make any difference regarding styles: Either an update does require (mandatory) template changes or not. How it is distributed (patch/2-monthly update/security release) does not change if a template must be updated or not.

Hi support team,

After last night upgrade I face some problems with some custom functions which work with 3.7.0 and dont with 3.7.1

See details

I have defined function -> xbt_postbit_attachment
in file xbt_functions.php

Code:

    function xbt_postbit_attachment(&$attachment)

    {

        global $stylevar, $vbulletin, $xbt_config;

        if (isset($attachment['bt_size']))

            $attachment['bt_size'] = xbt_b2a($attachment['bt_size']);

        $attachment['download_target'] = $xbt_config['attachment_download_banner'] ? 'target=_blank' : '';

        $attachment['bt_sub_files_rows'] = '';

        $sub_files = $vbulletin->db->query_read(sprintf("select hash, name, size from xbt_sub_files where info_hash = '%s' order by name", addslashes($attachment['bt_info_hash'])));

        while ($sub_file = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($sub_files))

        {

            $hash = bin2hex($sub_file['hash']);

            $name = htmlspecialchars($sub_file['name']);

            $size = xbt_b2a($sub_file['size']);

            eval('$attachment[\'bt_sub_files_rows\'] .= "' . fetch_template('postbit_attachment_sub_files_row') . '";');

        }

        if ($attachment['bt_sub_files_rows'])

            eval('$attachment[\'bt_sub_files\'] = "' . fetch_template('postbit_attachment_sub_files') . '";');

        $attachment['bt_users_rows'] = '';

        $users = $vbulletin->db->query_read(sprintf("select xfu.*, u.username name from xbt_files inner join xbt_files_users xfu using (fid) left join %suser u on uid = userid where info_hash = '%s' and (xfu.completed or xfu.downloaded or xfu.uploaded) order by name", TABLE_PREFIX, addslashes($attachment['bt_info_hash'])));

        while ($user = $vbulletin->db->fetch_array($users))

        {

            $uid = $user['uid'];

            $name = htmlspecialchars($user['name']);

            $announced = $user['announced'];

            $completed = $user['completed'];

            $downloaded = xbt_b2a($user['downloaded']);

            $left = xbt_b2a($user['left']);

            $uploaded = xbt_b2a($user['uploaded']);

            $last_announce = gmdate('Y-m-d H:s', $user['mtime']);

            eval('$attachment[\'bt_users_rows\'] .= "' . fetch_template('postbit_attachment_users_row') . '";');

        }

        if ($attachment['bt_users_rows'])

            eval('$attachment[\'bt_users\'] = "' . fetch_template('postbit_attachment_users') . '";');

    }

I call this function via plugin and hook -> postbit_attachment

Code:

require_once(DIR . '/includes/xbt_functions.php');

xbt_postbit_attachment($attachment);

But not works anymore (not shows result in postbit)

Maybe some hooks or classes are changed?

Advise please!

thx

Please create your own thread in the relevant forum. This is for discussions only. Thanks!

Argh, I've just got all my templates back to normal after upgrading to 3.7.0. Don't tell me I'll have to do all that shit again...

And if you read the posts over there, you'll find 'em. Many of them are business people who want, and appreciate, a schedule so that they can plan accordingly. :) Also you should be aware, if you aren't already, that the vB staff does get requests and suggestions at other than the vb.com forums.

And how do you know that many are business people who are requesting this?

I know that, what do you think this is for: http://www.vbulletin.com/testimonial_form.php -- :), but you or me, or anyone else for that matter will not know how many people use it, exception being the vB staff.

At the end of the day, I've said my opinion, and after some thought, I'm split about the decision. Lets just leave it as it is, for now. :)
