XenForo 1.5 discussion and feedback

[Zynektic]

and what is your jquery source set to? local or remote? Mine was set to google CDN

Google CDN.

Jeremy, is that still relevant as it's not on the face of it an admin route. it's /install ?? Just checking.

I'm not sure it is because when I set the jquery source to local, this error is no longer present.

Next upgrade I'm gonna disable pagespeed module just to try and pin this down as it get's me everytime haha.

Yes:

This is deliberate to ensure jQuery always works in the Admin CP/Installer, even if the CDN is down.

And, opening up the templates for the installer / upgrader, the path to the JS is this:

    <script src="../js/jquery/jquery-1.11.0.min.js"></script>
    <script src="../js/jquery/jquery.xenforo.rollup.js"></script>
    <script src="../js/xenforo/xenforo.js"></script>

Well.... I have to say then that this is very very strange behaviour.

This morning I upgraded to xF 1.4.8 and had to manually click "proceed" at each step.
Low and behold, I forgot it was beta thursday and sure enough, the beta lands so I thought I'd upgrade to beta 2. Remembering the pain of earlier today and having to manually advance each install step I set the jquery source to "local".
Whilst upgrading to 1.5 I did not need to manually advance each step, it auto-advanced just like it does when rebuilding templates in the ACP.

So, how can this be explained if the install procedure ignores the jquery source? I can only assume something in 1.5 itself has affected this. Maybe @Mike can shed light on this because looking at all the information here, the change in jquery source should have made zero difference.

 

[Mike]

I couldn't really guess what's causing it. The key would be what was actually breaking it -- as in debugging that in place -- rather than what appears to have fixed it (but by all accounts, shouldn't be related in any way).

 

[Rob]

Well, nothing at all was changed between installing those two seperate versions, not less than a few hours apart. The only change was the jquery CDN source. I'm puzzled, however, for the next release I hope to get a better idea.

Well, just got online and XF 1.5 beta 2 is already available .
No hesitation, I didn't even backup my Live Forum and Upgraded it right away
1 template mark as outdated and merged.

Now importing Xentag Data using this importer: Beta - [by PiX-house.com] Importer for [Tinhte] XenTag to XenForo 1.5
And I have 20K+ of tags to import.

Upgraded to the latest version Beta 2 1.5 - no serious issues. 6 template modifications. All merged with no effort.

One template modification has my notice showing in responsive as where I had it hidden before when responsive. Also I need to adjust the tags CSS to match my custom style.

Used the tag converter from Beta - [by PiX-house.com] Importer for [Tinhte] XenTag to XenForo 1.5 and it worked flawless - 1600+ tags converted successfully.

I would like to see the tabs brought back in the RM and XFMG and have created a suggestion for this.

I think we are the largest forum on XenForo 1.5?

Christian Forums

Went live just a few minutes ago.

Also:

ReligiousForums.com and AspiesCentral.com are on 1.5

 

[tommydamic68]

Upgraded to 1.5.0 beta 3 no issues. And
XenForo Media Gallery 1.1.0 Beta 1 Released (Unsupported) but my tag cloud is gone in the side bar.

 

[P-Body]

Why are the free demos not using XF1.5? I think they should update it. I do like the new features of XF 1.5.

 

[Chris D]

XenForo 1.5 isn't yet released. It's currently in beta testing. The demos will be updated when 1.5 is out of beta.

 

[raytrails]

Dunno if this have been asked earlier, but does XF 1.5 require a higher PHP version than earlier XF versions?

 

[Paul B]

It will work on the same version(s).

 

[Okenyon]

Any idea on full release date guys?

 

[Chris D]

It's obviously pretty close, but the exact release date will be driven by the quantity and severity of the bugs found during the Release Candidate stage. We won't release it until we're confident it's ready.

 

[Teapot]

Just went live with 1.5 on my site. All went very well! My members are absolutely ecstatic about the new features (I integrated the tags system into our gallery add-on to great effect), and they're really enjoying the profile post comment improvements in particular. Meanwhile, we on staff are liking the responsive ACP and 2-factor authentication
