IPB 3.2 in the works

Recommended Posts

A major version update will be coming soon for IPB. This has a lot of new features. No date on it yet, but I figure I'd let you guys know it is coming, as we will be moving to it when it drops.

Some of IPB 3.2's new features:

- "Topic posted in while you were posting" notification. I know you guys missed this from SMF, and this implementation is better. It uses AJAX so you can be notified before you hit post!

- New WYSIWYG text editor

- Auto-Save drafts of posts in-case of browser crash

- Better moderator tools (no details yet)

- More ways to view new posts and threads since your last visit

- Facebook-style "Like" button (requires reputation be enabled, though)

- Avatar and Personal Photo to be changed to a single image.

- Ability to on-the-fly crop uploaded images that are too big

- Improved SEO, which raises our Google ranking

- AJAX for quick reply and quote, makes posting faster.

- "Wizard" for BBCode to help those of you who have a hard time remembering BBCode parameters

Hooray, I really missed the "topic posted in while you were posting" warning. Good to see it'll be returning.

Sounds like a good update that is on the way ^^

When are you going to allow us to embed HTML code? D:

Can be a security risk, not recommended

Hey Fox McCloud! I have question that I've been thinking about for a while. Your avatar's the same but the colors are darker, why is that? Did you intend it to look like that?

Never. HTML is a security risk.

I'm looking forward to that post notification, no more post ninja-ing

Agreed; saves people a lot of trouble from editing posts in RPs and other similar topics.
