XenForo 2.2.3 Patch 1 Released

XenForo 2.2.3 is now available for all licensed customers to download. We strongly recommend that all customers running previous versions of XenForo 2.2 upgrade to this release to benefit from increased stability.

One-click upgrade to XenForo 2.2.3

Directly from your admin control panel

In addition to the usual bug fixes and improvements, there is a database schema change which, in some circumstances, may take time to perform. If you are running a version of MySQL below 5.7 (or equivalent) and have a particularly large xf_thread table (several million records) then we recommend performing a CLI upgrade.

Some of the changes in XF 2.2.3 include:

The following public templates have had changes:
  • PAGE_CONTAINER
  • account_privacy
  • app_nav.less
  • bb_code_tag_img
  • bookmark_macros
  • core_button.less
  • core_menu.less
  • forum_filters
  • message.less
  • node_list.less
  • node_list_search_forum
  • poll_macros
  • thread_type_fields_article
  • token_input
Where necessary, the merge system within the "outdated templates" page should be used to integrate these changes.

As always, new releases of XenForo are free to download for all customers with active licenses. You may now upgrade from your admin control panel or grab the new version from the customer area.
