is it worth it to upgrade 2.2.2 to 2.2.3? i'd rather not reinstall all my hacks, so i thought i'd wait until 3.0 comes out to upgrade, since it is expected in (at most?) about a month

Well there are no new features. However it does plug a security hole. That's enough to make it worthwhile to me.

well...i've added a field to "thread" for a hack - how will this be affected by the upgrade script?

Steve Machol · #4 03-08-2002, 02:44 AM

I have no idea. I'm not at all familiar with that hack.

Psychdrone · #5 03-09-2002, 12:06 AM

what is the security issue?

Doesn't anyone ever read the annoucements when a new version is released?

it's not very detailed...

I'm not one of the vBulletin 'Creators' and I haven't seen any post in this forum yet. Frankly I have no idea what you've done because I don't know what you mean when you say:

'i've added a field to "thread" for a hack'.

Perhaps it's just me but that doesn't make any sense.

By the way it's purposely 'not very detailed' so as to not give out information that will put all of our forums at risk.

The upgrade doesn't do any database modifications so the answer would be, no effect.

Steve -- he added a new column to the thread table for a hack.
