XenForo 2.0 Discussion

It is a very powerful feature

its for child 11-14 years old, and some ken and barbie forums, thats all.

Gaming forums would find it useful, and considering the average gamer age is well past 25 the statement for 11-14 is incorrect

Please stop. You've made it clear that you don't like trophies. There's no need to repeat the same thing again and again or to belittle trophies which some people do like and use.

This.

Enough about Trophies, please.

My moderators would like a place to check new members IP addresses before they post.

I can see new member's IPs when I go to the "edit" page, but currently the moderator's version of the edit page doesn't have a tab for IP addresses like the admin panel does.

 

[Chris D]

We have added the ability for moderators to check IP addresses in 2.0.

 

[Titans]

Very impressed with 2.0 via the demo site and what's coming.

Great job guys!

 

[DarkGizmo]

Very welcomed update for Moderators.

It will be permission based correct?

 

[Paul B]

I expect it will be tied to the 'View IP addresses' permission.

I like the subtle integration of the sharing icons at the bottom of threads on the demo.

Another wise move: Having separate buttons for login and register.

upgrading from xf1 to xf2 will convert db to accept emoji? or is a thing that we have to do manually?

 

[Chris D]

It will be a separate process and optional. We will provide the means to do it if you want to.

 

[surfsup]

Are we going to be able to beta test x2.0 on our servers this month, jan or?

Sometime in Quarter 1 2017 a developer preview is planned.

will this tool be available to people wanting to stay with xf 1?

I'd love to see some designers come up with new homepages for XF2.

If designers are looking for an instant hit, then come up with a new way to present content that promotes user activity, is responsive, and also caters to Google standards for SEO.

 

[Chris D]

will this tool be available to people wanting to stay with xf 1?

No. We'll only be supporting utf8mb4 from XF2 onwards.

 

[Aivaras]

We'll only be supporting utf8mb4 from XF2 onwards.

Are there any downsides to upgrading to utf8mb4?

 

[Mike]

Generally speaking no. (There are some minor differences when it comes to indexation of string columns and their lengths. This isn't hugely common though.)
