The upgrade was a breeze and my skin I upgraded for 2.2 looks just as it should. :-)

Thanks for the great work.
Happy New Year!

Is there a place where the SEO presets are discussed?

Generally I like the idea, but when there is too much choice, it becomes difficult to choose.

I too, I installed the new files on my 2.2 installation with custom skin.
And - of course - it looks just as I expected.

Thanks for all the work François, Daniel, ¥åßßå, and other secret dwarfs.

And an editor like FCKeditor or TinyMCE with a good integration in b2evolution (Word code and More)?

What about ugrading form 1.10.3 to 2.3.0? Is it supported?

Fantastic features. Looking forward to installing this version!

maty, there’s a TinyMCE plugin available:

Does anyone know if Windows Live Writer works with b2evo 2.3.0?
Thanks

It works fine, Daniel and Francois, and I’m playing with the newe features, updating my skins for the last time ;-) and I like all the Container-Stuff very much!

It feels good!

Thanks!

Well, I haven’t checked into it, but this time it all went smooth - thanks a million for all the work you put into this :)!!

Wow nice 2008 New Year gift!

And this certainly fits my 2007 closing blog post and 2008 opening blog post :D

I am declaring 2008 the FLOSS Year!

Now to update my b2e and skins :D

I am registered with Bluehost and trying to download b2evolution 2.3.0-rc1 “Renaissance” but when I click on “Download here >>” it keeps bouncing me between home and the download tabs. Am I missing something? I’m gettin’ a wee bit dizzy. Advice Welcome. Thanks.

Gail, you need to click on the file size in the “download” column.

I’m running 2.2.0 and I’m looking forward to 2.3.0.

2 Comments:

1) is there a way to call a widget by itself from inside my skin without calling the entire “sidebar"? I asked this question in the forums but haven’t heard an answer. This would be great so we can choose and pick exactly what widgets to use. See this forum post:

2) I just saw a cool SPAM feature in one blog at AOL in which - after you put a comment for the first time - you get sent an email immediately after the comment. In the email, you get an “activate your comments” link and then your comment is registered and your email is trusted. This would be a nice b2evo spam feature, no? That said, I get zero spam with b2evo the way it works now. It rocks…

I have changed from 2.0.2 to 2.3.0 and the update was very easy. I have had some Problems with my skin, but I have fixed and now it works fine for me. Thanks for your great work.

wow, excited about the new release!!!

Sooo Hot!
I love the new skin system.

You guys are Awesome!

Can I upgrade from 1.10.3 or I am going to have trouble ?

Yes, again, upgrading from 1.10.3 as well as ANY PRIOR version of b2evo is fully supported.

If you are using a default/standard skin it’s a piece of cake. Same if you plan on using a skin from the 2.x skin directory.

If you are using a customized skin, you will have to convert it which may take a couple of hours.

New skins (from versions 2.0 and up) need NO upgrading to work on 2.3.

… sorry for being stubborn … but is there an avatar feature? :/

BTW, the emoticons in comments here aren’t working…

We upgraded. It took us 20 minutes or so but that’s related more to downloading/uploading the new files than the actually install.

Good work.

Can this be use on My SQL Server 5.0?

Yes it works with MySQL 3.23, 4.x and 5.x.

It also works with PHP 4.3+ and 5.x

Hi & thanks for a great product. I ugraded to 2.3.0 a few days ago and to my sadness the Guadalupe skin was not there.

Do you have any plans of updating that one as well?

As it was many years since I did programming and have no experience with php files it is rather tricky to decypher how one should do. I understand people seems to think it is much better now in 2.3 but I still find it quite hard….

Even though the documentation tries to tell me how to go ahead it is quite an up-hill.

Is there hope for help?

Again, thanks for the great work…

Is it easy or can I upgrade from an older version? I think i have 1.10.3? I would be willing to pay for it if It’s a big problem.

Thanks!

OK, so I need to copy/paste again?

What happened to my ability to go directly from the comment list to the antispam page with the URL pre-filled?

Wayne, that’s a little bug that managed to sneak in while cleaning up skin tags. It’s fixed in the next release ;)

Hello Francois,

Could you refer me to a link that talks about how to upgrade skins?

I use a custom skin and I’m still on a 0.9 version of b2evo but planning to upgrade in coming days.

Thanks,
Ross
