[Jeremy]

No, a post that is edited (merged), no alerts are sent.

@DRE, this is the thread:
http://xenforo.com/community/threads/a-new-editor-and-much-much-more.50519/ (and you got no alert)

 

[DRE]

darn it.

Ehm, how is the widget framework deprecated? Did I miss a 1.2 feature allowing us to control sidebar blocks?

Where do you see it was stated as such?

 

[DRE]

Lol

Egh Adam Howard's post was misleading here:

http://xenforo.com/community/threads/addons-deprecated-by-xenforo-updates.48444/page-7#post-554021

That was a list of everything he kept and not what was deprecated. Apologies.

No worries. I looked through the thread, couldn't find it. I knew it is still needed (I am running it myself).

The deprecated addons should be ghosted or noted as such in the resources area. This would make things more clear and avoid unnecessary errors.

Any Waindigo add-ons that are deprecated will have "[Unsupported]" in their title in the Resource Manager.

I added "for XenForo 1.1" in title, red warnings in description and on purchase page stating that it won't work with 1.2.

That should probably be enough. Though I've seen people purchase XenForo styles and trying to install them on phpBB, so who knows....

Just because this member has decided that certain add-ons are no longer required on their forum, it doesn't necessarily mean they are 'deprecated'.

A lot of members have stated they will still use TMS for example.

It is up to individuals to decide which add-ons they want to continue using.

 

[DRE]

What Brogan said is why I'm not in a big rush to update my addons and styles. Some people still haven't either A: Updated to Xenforo 1.2 or B: Still using TMS. I will eventually update them and maybe add some new resources. Gotta fix my site first.

Really? Why?

Also, the word is deprecated.

Arty's secretly screaming, "Nooooooooooooooooooooooooooooooo! Curse you XenForo!"

He wasn't the only one who spent far too long on a responsive framework, mine just wasn't as popular. I had just finished Xenblock, a fully responsive framework, when I heard it was going to be a main feature. I spent months on the product for it to essentially flop. The pain!

Cost of being a plugin/skin developer for a great platform who is always trying to bring the most important features into the core.

Ouch, sorry to hear that. If anything, it was a good learning experience, though, no?

 

[Syndol]

The following addons will be depreciated in Xenforo 1.3

Incorrect. Only two features from Moderator Essentials will be included with XF 1.3.
The rest including the main feature, the Session Moderator Log, will still only be available via the add-on.

Heh I suppose so. After 1.2 I started my main and current framework which is now one of the most feature-packed products out there! There is always something to build with XenForo.

I'm sure some peeps still need it but one of the features in that addon is in Xenforo 1.3
Adds warning action to add user to a specified user group permanently or for a specified time period

*shrugs*



I noticed we all spell it deprecated, thought I'd switch it up a little.
