Blueyed is not very attractive visually, also it doesn’t seem to have many changes from the actual version, the only thing I saw at first glance was the avatars, and the people online.
Beside, as the site is in deutsch I can’t read to see new changes.
I don’t think this demo is a good idea.
But don’t get me wrong, I am waiting for a new release, I want to see some changes, I will keep using this script for years to come but, Blueyed is not a very good marketing strategy.

But please hurry the next release!

demo.b2evolution.net is the demo

there are some nice new features, the admin menu is looking good, but i didnt find the must a have “new feature” to move to the new version.

@John Cougar Mellencamp: blueyed is my nickname and I’m not running the Phoenix alpha release on my own blog.. :)

There’s some problem with a table in the demo: “MySQL error!

Unknown column ‘datestart’ in ‘where clause’(Errno=1054)”

Should be fixed on the next reset/update… that is in 18 minutes ;)

Im getting a “please do not access this page directly” error. tried in internet explorer and firefox. (7am EST Sunday Sept11)

I am getting the same error message and I go it also on Friday.

Daniel, who is maintaining the demo site is currently away. We’ll have to wait for him to get back.

For the record: I was using some of the b2evolution evocore classes for the demo site itself. But when compatibility changes were made in CVS the demo failed (like pre-Phoenix skins tend to do with Phoenix).
