All technical issues should be discussed in the forums.

I’ve started a new blog with 5.0.3 and have some questions or perhaps bug-reports.
Where is the best place to put them in?

Here, in the forum, or somewhere else?

(Problem with inline image in the ‘more’ area, language mixup error message in the email section).

You can check out v 4.1.7 as well as the working notification on http://demo.b2evolution.net/

Sorry, that notification was wrong, it should be fixed by now.

4.1.7 is the latest stable version indeed.

I get this message when upgrading to 4.1.7:
Version 5.0.3-beta-5-2013-04-28 is available for download. It is strongly recommended that you upgrade.

Isn’t this an unnecessary notification if 4.1.7 is still stable?

Feature list is not final yet but you can get a preview here: http://www.stateoftheevolution.com/new-features-b2evolution-v5

When the stable version is planned?
Do you finaly plan also some kind of photo gallery addon, so there will be option to add some photos to every post?
Thanks
Robert

Can you give us any clue what new features are in this major release. The documentation you point to is a little, shall we say “thin” !

If there are any features I like then I’d be more inclined to install it any help with the bug fixing effort.

@Fabian
The link is here:
http://b2evolution.net/downloads/index.html

Where is the download link for version 5.0.0???

Here we go *crosses fingers*

I used wordpress before but i must say b2evolution its lovely far superior in my opinion.

I like the amazing back-end functions.

Thank you so much. I look forward to this release. B2Evo is an awesome platform.

Gary: the alpha will be available in a week or two (depending on how many bugs will still stumble upon :p)

Can I try the alpha version on one of my site?

OH YEAH BABY

Waiting for v5!!!

I couldn’t resist a little demo of file attachments on comments.

(This is available to logged in users only.)

I am pleased to announce that this site is now running on b2evolution v5-alpha.

Not all new features have been activated yet, but it seems it’s nice and stable.

Please let us know about any quirks you might find…

We’re continuing work on the forums migration as well as the new manual.

Awesome news Francois. I am glad to see such great progress on this fantastic system. I can’t wait to get my hands on V5 and take it for a spin.

Keep up the great work.
Gary

@Sam Vous avez probablement une ancienne page dans le cache de pages de b2. Ca expire en 20 minutes maxi.

@Keith we’ll check. What version are you running. Does your install ZIP file say “4.1.5b” with a “b"?

Hm. I’m getting a notice that dummy_fields isn’t defined. When I try to upgrade the database (/blogs/install/), I get the following error:
MySQL error!

You have an error in your SQL syntax; check the manual that corresponds to your MySQL server version for the right syntax to use near ‘), (2, “last_invalidation_timestamp", ), (3, “last_invalidation_timestamp", )’ at line 1(Errno=1064)

Your query: Invalidate blogs’s page caches

Bonjour, Compliments pour ce blog superbe.
J’ai interdit les commentaires sur mon blog, et quand je suis loggé, que je clique sur ‘Commentaires’, ca m’indique bien que je peux pas laisser de commentaires.
Mais si je me delogge et que je rafraichis la page, tous les posts apparaissent avec une zone en dessous pour laisser un commentaire, indiquant qu’il faut etre loggé pour laisser un commentaire.
Cette zone ne devrait pas être visible lorsque le blog est configuré pour ne pas laisser de commentaire.
Est ce un bug? Ou est ce que c’est une subtilité de configuration que je n’ai pas vu ?
Cordialement,
Sam

Impossible d’installer la dernière version sous php 5.4.3 et wamp dernière version httpd 2.4.2 (64 bits)

Upgraded from 4.1.2 to 4.1.4 in less than 10 minutes. Rock solid as always! Thanks for all the good work!

Here is the diff to the last version:

I’d like to give credit to Alex/sam2kb for tracking and implementing the majority of the bug fixes in this release.

Does anyone else have the same message as Kenneth?

Great job Francois - Another solid release. B2evo rocks.

I installed Version 4.1.3-2012-03-02 two days ago. My site shows 4.1.3 installed, but I received this message

WARNING: You are running an outdated development version (). Version 4.1.3-2012-03-02 is available for download. It is strongly recommended that you upgrade.
I downloaded and installed 4.1.3-2012-03-02 again today 3/7 and after a successful install received the same message. How do I correct this situation?

If you haven’t touched anything else, copy your _basic_config.php from 4.1.2 to 4.1.3 and you’ll be fine.

Hello,
I want to upgrade from 4.12 to 4.13. In the “Quick upgrade patches” I see the following:
“No database upgrade is necessary if you only want to upgrade from a.b.x to a.b.y, for example, from 3.3.1 to 3.3.2. You can upgrade just by replacing a few files. Just make sure you properly update your /conf files.”

There are many files in the /conf directory. The most important one seems to be _basic_config.php, _config.php and _upgrade.php

Can you please tell me what should I modify in these conf files after I replacing the new files from “b2evolution-4.1.2-to-4.1.3.zip” archive?

Thanks.

We will be updating the SourceForge CVS with version 4.1.3 shortly.

(We do not use SourceForge in real time any more because they have too much downtime over the year.)

I take it that the CVS repository is no longer being used. I haven’t seen an update there in months. It’s unfortunate to have to copy whole files over (CVS access or even patches with some context would be much better), as it undoes a lot of the changes I’ve made to the code (mostly to fix the errors it causes in PHP 5.4).

For tech support, please click on the Forums tab at the top right of this screen.

Regarding upgrade, follow the instructions in the Upgrade paragraph of the download page. The standard upgrade procedure works for *all* versions of b2evolution, no matter the version number and the way you first installed it.

hi there, i am using b2evolution online and its telling me to upgrade as i am running an outdated version, but i am not usre how to as its the online version i am using through godaddy and not a version installed on my PC. if you could please advise or help it will be much appreciated. Thanks

Hi there..

Now I’d like to know how I can upload my da_DK translation..?

I do not seem to find any information in the language-section..

hi everybody, in b2evolution, can i permission for categories same as blog. ex: i add a user and i want to this user will manage only category that i want as admin

I started using b2evolution recently for my personal website. I upgraded to the latest stable version two days ago.
I installed captcha plugin. But after the plug in is enabled, if we click leave a comment link, page fails to load correctly. A white page appears and the a small button for reloading the image appears on top left hand corner.

Please let me know how to fix this. The captcha was working fine until the upgrade.

Thank you!
Regards,
Rajesh

Great! Installing…

Hello Jacques; yes that is a bug. It will be fixed in v 4.1.2.

Thanks a lot to all contributors !
It’s great. However, I think that there is a bug in the file settings_dispatch.ctrl.php which prevents to select the tab “General” in the admin/General settings (or Global settings ? I’m not shure of the english name for this tab)

I had to change the var $tab for $ctrl in the test under // Avoid infernal loop.

I’d like a confirmation, please.

sincerely,
Jacques

Francois: Thanks for the reply. I wound up building custom code to place the social media icons where I wanted them on the site.

Looking forward to the released version of 4.1!

I think when user registration and permissions is more simplified and the assumption that a user is a blogger is done away with,B2Evo will be phenomenal. I think registered users must be able to post articles from front end,fully allowing user driven content.

The social icons will be pluginized, but they are not at this time. It is on the todo list ;)

Hi! I have a small trouble with the upgrade from the 3.x to the 4.x series, since the tables where handled only here:

/inc/core/__core.init.php
/inc/sessions/_sessions.init.php

In the 4.x series, this is also handled in those two files, but… not entirely…

One have a declaration “somewhere” in the inc folder… and I dont find it! :S Where could it be located that declaration?

TABLE-KEY_global__cache

(I want to change the auto table key, to a “fixed", since my b2evo instalation is multilingual and for mobiles and desktop browsers, so I had this table aside)

Thanks in advance for the help, because as you see, I did my homework! :D

PS: In the 2.x series, the table keys were handled just in the conf/_advanced.php file)

Francois, is the line of social media icons at the end of your post available as a plugin or widget? It’s exactly what I’m looking for.

Yes it’s possible to change the lightbox alternative pretty easily if you’ve done this kind of things before. Just change the javascript snippet in your skin. Images are marked in a stand way with rel="lightbox[collection]”

Don’t worry about that file, it’s experimental ;)
