So who is running 3.5?

[Chris M]

Well I've got it running on my new site (behind closed doors)

Been trying to self-port a few hacks over but this plugin system is a bit weird and takes getting used to - Gonna give up now and try again next week when I'm a little soberer

Only prob with the plugin system i have encountered so far is it takes longer to compile hacks, excluding the hook you need isn't available.

The problem I am encountering is to do with bitfields - Several of my own personal hacks used them in 3.0.7 and now I'm a bit confuddled as what to do

I'll work it out eventually, but as I say, I'll probably go "you stupid clod why didn't you xyz" when I sober up

I'm wanting to set-up my testboar but my install script isn't working.-_-.

Getting support right now..doesn't even make sense. As soon sa I get it up I'm installing all plug-in hacks...becuase its beta and I can.

Sure am glad they kept the variable $bbuserinfo for templates

Time for you to upgrade Inferno.

so weird, I installed my test 3.5 on localhost, I don't know why I can't import my current 3.0.7 style, I got a blank page, hmmm

As announced on my forum, it won't be done for the beta versions, since they will be released like flies, waiting for the final (gold) release of vB 3.5 first

And my styles imported fine, but like i said, it's better to use the default vB 3.5 skin and convert that to your specifications instead of vice versa, less hassel in the long run.

I've upgraded my forums:

As you can see, I'm not big on modifications. I've only made minor edits to 6 templates (added, deleted and/or modified a few areas) and I have 3 plugins installed.

cool, your members are the very first ones to be happy with vb3.5, I want it too but it's a long story...

To be honest, I'm not sure they noticed a difference besides the fact that some things didn't work during the first 24 hours and that I posted we had done an upgrade. ^_^;;

They'll notice soon through. I'm porting hacks that I like from earlier versions of vBulletin to vBulletin 3.5.0's plugin system so I can have them on my forums. I now have 4 plugins, of which 3 I've ported.
