[fastforward]

This release is for vB 2.0 beta 5

Upgrading:

• The only vB code changes that differ to the previous version are in showthread.php. The way the Registered: and Location: bits are handled (via custom fields) make it messy to try to hide via code. If you removed the words from your templates in a previous version, you'll have to put it back again as this release doesn't attempt to hide it. If you really need them hiding, the best bet is to create a seperate style set for usenet forums. I'll look at adding options to handle it via the control panel in a later release.
• No DDL changes have been made.
• There is one DML change that deletes an unnecessary option. (The 'reply iterations' option that is now handled automatically).

This is all listed in UPGRADE.txt

INSTALL.txt details a fresh installation on a virgin vB 2.0 beta 5.

All links in this thread have been updated to point to the new version. The latest version will always be in the first post of this thread.

I hope to get another release of newnews.pl out over the weekend that will add some of the outstanding features listed at the top of this thread. This should simply be a drop in replacement.
