Great! That’s an excellent Christmas gift :-)
I will set it up on one of my sites where the spam problem is beginning to get out of control.
Thank you!

How up-to-date is the manual in regard to version 4? I’m in the process of upgrading from 2.4.6 and I can’t tell which pages are relevant.

Those who wanted to switch to 4.x specifically for the anti-spam warfare tools, please take a look at this:

Francois, One item I see here is that comments take a while to be approved.
It would reassure users if you could moderate the comments so it looks like b2Evolution.net is actively monitored and alive.
You know I’m a big fan and have been using b2evo for years so - this is just a personal feedback point.
Thanks for b2evo.

Wow - upgraded from 3.x to 4.x on my development machine, tested and upgraded on the live server in around 1.5 hr. Was expecting it to be difficult, /install script worked like a dream.
Twitter Plugin worked too Yeahhhhhh!

Quick notes:
- It is normal that b2evolution will tell you it can’t replace .htaccess if you already have such a file. Don’t worry about it.
- It is normal that b2evolution will make a small adjustment to the DB if you try to upgrade from version v 4.0.2. Don’t worry about it.
There will be a v 4.0.4 with fixes to minor little bugs. Nothing critical.

I upgraded and though the process was smooth the error messages I received because I was using the basic antispam plugin were very irritating. Once I updated the _comment.class.php from the GIT repository as per http://forums.b2evolution.net/viewtopic.php?p=106978&sid=94b45e3fda5b08ee90cce1adde7d182a they at least went away but the default Gravitar icons that wouldn’t go away until I again updated _comment.class.php as per http://forums.b2evolution.net//viewtopic.php?p=106570#106570 frankly made me uphappy that a version update gave my blog error messages and made it ugly. I really think that update that included the latest patches should be released, an upgrade that produces error messages and makes my blog ugly is not appreciated.

Hey Franc! Great job on b2e. Read your background and its really impressive. Really love the b2e skins. The b2e skins compared to what I see with the wordpress software on the wordpress site, I think your b2e skins are much more enjoyable than the skins I see on the wordpress site. There’s only 2 slight problems I have having with b2e 4.05 right now and that’s a few forms not working and the issue with trying to get the aggregate feature to work with the other blogs on the same database. But other than that, I am still learning the b2e system, and I am really looking forward to the next update. b2e is easy to install, easy to setup, looking forward to bte in the future. God Bless.
