2.2.8 is out!
 

http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...threadid=55437

Just when you thought 2.2.7 was the last one before 3.0... ;)

It's still RC, so I'm going to wait until it becomes gold before I upgrade.

Since I'm sick with gastro, and am sitting at home, I thought I might as well upgrade because I have time.

A tip for those upgrading:

Read John's description of changes to each file. Some of the changes are not necessary. Also, some of the changes listed are already in the vB.com vb2 Bugs forum so you can do that manually. He also included my fix to auto-unsubscribe banned members in 2.2.8 (albeit a mildly different version) :).

This is a very minor upgrade from 2.2.7, and shouldn't take too long.

hehehe.. i almost finishied my superhacked forum..
geeeeeeeeeeeee..

[high]* TECK is hitting his head against the wall...

actually araxis merge will see the diff in exacly 2mins.. :)

Most of us who follow the vB.com vB2 bug forums would have some of the upgrade changes installed already.

Read John's description of the changes in each file, so you know where to look with Araxis Merge. It's usually only 1 or 2 lines of difference in each file - quite easy to do. I am doing that right now...

i'm just gonna do a an araxis merge between the default 227 and 228, so i see exacly where is the diff. :)
thanks for letting me know Erwin... the funny part is i always findout from you that there is a new version.. hehe.
however, look at the pic.. you cant miss it... the prob is that i almost never go to this page while working on my localhost.

instead of the admin cp, i use a little script that updates the templates instantly, isntead of going like crazy to all the templates one by one. so all i have to do is edit the big template.style and bingo.. is updated.

when i will have my forums online, i'm sure it will bealot easier for me to see the updates...

hmm i thought they would be 4-5changes.. there are 25changes in all files...

Yeah, it took me longer than I thought to upgrade. Took me in total over 2 hours. There are some changes to the way cookies are handled - some of the previous fixes are no longer present.

Everything is working well. :) That's the main thing.

What's happened to the edit button?

And the sigs???

Possibly to the 17 already known problems in vB 2.2.8 forum :rolleyes:

I had to halt my site upgrades because of this...Argh!



Just when you thought it was safe to upgrade...
