Other Add-ons depreciated or partly depreciated by XF 1.5

[Rob]

I thought it would be useful to maintain a thread that lists all the addons that are made obsolete by Xenforo 1.5. I'll try and include add-ons that are partially impacted as well.

If you can help me out by posting any affected addons here, along with links, then I'll maintain the list in the post #2 below this one.

Thanks,

Rob

I'm sure there are others, but I've started at least

 

[rdn]

BD Alerts of xfrocks.
Mass Alert of Luke.

 

[Paul B]

I hate to be that guy, but it's deprecated

 

[Rob]

Yeah, I've got many of these installed so I wanted this list for myself anyway as I'll wait for the final release and then [very?] closely followed by a UI.X update. I can't see any of yours on here brogan?

ragtek appears to be the most depreciated developer, who knew?

 

[Rob]

@Jon W, you almost escaped the list

 

[0ptima]

I really appreciate that you took the time to post add-ons deprecated by XF 1.5.

 

[Daniel Hood]

A couple of mine have been depreciated;

• Unmaintained - Proxy Log Referrals
  
• User Essentials had a few of it's features introduced in the core (related to profile post commenting).

Cool, thanks!

I can no longer edit my post, so maybe @Brogan or another moderator can add them. If not, then people will have to just read the thread

 

[Paul B]

I have updated the post.

 

[Rob]

Unless there are any further modifications to add to this, then I think we're about done.

Just to reflect, we should congratulate all of the add-on developers whose add-ons have been either depreciated or functionally affected by 1.5. Well done all of you for having the foresight and commitment to developing these add-ons and filling the temporary functionality void. I know the entire xF community really really appreciate your efforts.

It also has to be said that this release has been a total pleasure and a surprise. Well done to the entire xF developer team, @Mike, @Kier, @Chris D for bringing us a release which feels a lot more like a major point release than a minor release, you've really raised the bar - to make so many add-ons obsolete here was completely unexpected.

I'm sure it fills the entire community with excitement and confidence in what 2.0 might bring! Keep up the great work guys!

[Tinhte] XenTag - as yet, no import method exists

You may update this
Beta - [by PiX-house.com] Importer for [Tinhte] XenTag to XenForo 1.5

 

[Rob]

@Brogan, can you update that one line in post two with an importer link?

 

[Paul B]

Done.

Entirely Depreciated (functional parity with the core)

We use the 'Related Threads' feature of XenTag which displays a list of threads that share the same tags at the bottom of a thread view page.

I suppose that this is not in the 1.5 core tagging feature and would require an addon?

 

[Rob]

Yes, you are correct however, I can no longer edit post #2 to reflect this, however, since 99% of that mod is deprecated it makes little difference.
Now that tags are in the core, I should imagine that functionality will exist very soon as an addon. The XenTag developer has not ruled out the mod being re-released with functional integration into xF's native tag system.

 

[Xon]

@Jon W's Last Post Avatar by Waindigo now has the majority of the addon deprecated as of XF 1.5 Beta 2. The ability to show the last avatar of a thread is now baked into core, you just need to toggle it. (There isn't a toggle yet)

 

[Rob]

Thanks @Xon

 

[rdn]

you just need to toggle it. (There isn't a toggle yet)

So the said feature is not ready yet?
