XenForo 1.3 General Discussion & Feedback

[Chris D]

I actually believe that. Thanks @Mike

(It doesn't take much )

 

[Pereira]

Every XenForo release so far has had at least five beta versions and one RC.

 

[masterchief]

Beta4 installed, no problems...

 

[Veer]

I was hoping for RC 1

 

[DRE]

I'd rather them try to get 1.3 right instead of rushing out a buggy 'stable' release.

Running upgrade to 1.3.0 Beta 4, step 1... done.
Rebuilding / importing data...

Upgrade completed successfully!

Done

Considering how stable the XF betas have traditionally been, does it really matter if they call it "B4" or "RC1" when packaging it up?

 

[taylor_smith]

Are release candidates supported?

 

[Amaury]

Are release candidates supported?

No. I don't think they're even made available for download.

 

[Paul B]

Of course RC are made available for download.

Thanks, I wasn't sure. I don't believe they're supported, though.

 

[Paul B]

They are not.

Only stable releases are officially supported.

Nm. Thanks!

That is absolutely fine, but what I'm seeing is 1.3 is not that big release compare to the 1.2 and its pretty much stable in current state. So it should be declare stable in 1 or 2 weeks maximum now. Many people like me won't be upgrading live site until its declare stable and supported.

I'm hoping next release to be one and only RC and then stable release

There's more than enough support from the community as it is now...

I update the second they are posted if home, if not, as soon as at PC. I've never once had a major issue.

Very true, no doubt about that

I've just generally been with the whole "why put it off" camp. You still have to do it (upgrade) if you want the new features, so why not upgrade, report when needed, and help out the community. I tend to see upgrading as getting more, even if you have to put up with a couple quirks here and there. Just me though, and I realize others do have their own opinions on the matter.

Im running a newly converted vB4 forum on XF1.3.b2 and love it.. And its giving me things to do until 1.3 is declared stable and supported before i update my primary forum.

haha old habits die hard when you hold multiple vB4 licenses. On the other hand.. Its not so much XF i worry about not being stable its the multiple plugins that have the potential to break i worry about.. I actually hope to wait for a week or two after a stable release in hope some plugins are updated.. Although i admit i rarely if ever can hold out that long..
