Getting eager to see XF2, is there any chance we'll see it this year? @Chris D

Personally I doubt that we will see 2.0 this year. If it was close to be released, we would have seen some screenshots of the new version, and possibly a test forum with it in use.

We could see it even it if were a while from being released. I'm pretty sure this forum was up a few months before sales started (I could be wrong, but still).

We're actually running 2.0 now, they sneakily introduced it to see if anyone noticed.

 

[Amaury]

So, realistically it's just a case of making a suggestion and if there's a compelling reason to change something then it will be considered.

Thank you, Chris.

I would say that "no plans" means it's very unlikely to happen - only in the event that XF 2.0 gets significantly held up for some reason, which at this point also seems very unlikely. In reality, it's probably just @Chris D's way of speaking carefully in regards to future releases.

From what I've read, there were no plans for XF 1.5 either

AFAIK you're correct - but I'd guess that once XF2 was mentioned publicly it was determined there would be too long a wait before XF2 was released so they decided it was worth the time and effort to bring out XF 1.5. I for one would be very surprised if there was an XF 1.6, or if we didn't see a glimpse of XF 2.0 later this year.

Any chance of templates/other things being editable via an actual external editor without the use of something clunky like WebDav kind of like what IPS does?

 

[ŽivaAkcija]

Any new option for incoming update on 1.6.0?

 

[The Sandman]

There probably won't be an XF 1.6.

1.5.9 will be the next release

But, yes, there are no plans for a 1.6.

 

[ŽivaAkcija]

i know 1.5.9 is next ones, but i ask for 1.6.0 release and any planed new option?

 

[Chris D]

There are no plans to develop XF 1.6. The next major version of XF will be 2.0.

 

[Lawrence]

The next major version of XF will be 2.0.

Oops, you ended this sentence short. You forgot to add in the release date. (e.g. "on July the 26th.") There is still time to fix that oversight, Chris,

Valid point, @wang

 

[The Sandman]

For all we know they could post the first Have You Seen...? tomorrow. I don't think it's all that far away anymore.

 

[Bionic Rooster]

If cars ran on speculation like this discussion has, there would be no shortage of fuel. LOL
It will be here when it's here.

Personally I am looking forward to, "Hi this is Kier from XenForo..."

I'd be very surprised if we didn't see a beta by the end of the year. Forum software needs to get moving or we will be left behind.

Doesn't he usually say "Hello", not "Hi"?

 

[Jim Kingsnorth]

Just curious if people will switch right away, or if you will wait for a few releases before switching to 2.0? I will probably wait awhile, at least until some of my favorite mods are converted to 2.0.
