Forum upgrade

[LA_MERC_Onji]

I'll be upgrading the forums soon to 3.7.0. Of course this will most likely break any custom addons ive done, shoutbox, arcade, etc. but it needs to be done.
Dont know if i'll get to it today, but just giving a heads up if you see any weirdness going on.

Here are a few of the changes etc:


Here is a brief but far from comprehensive list of some of the new features making their debut in vBulletin 3.7.0:

* Inline spam management & prevention
* Thread tagging
* Search cloud / tag cloud
* Thread prefixes
* Reciprocal friendships between users
* Public visitor messaging on profile pages with 'conversation' feature
* User picture galleries with user comment facility
* User-created social groups with invite only and moderated membership options
* Extended member profile pages
* Customizable member profile pages with admin-controlled styling abilities
* Inline editing of custom user profile fields
* Lightbox viewer for attached images
* Viewable and comparable history maintained for post edits
* Extended re-authentication for inline moderation actions
* Notices system for navigation bar
* New human-verification tools including reCAPTCHA, and question/answer
* User change history
* Social bookmarking integration

For further details on these features, take a look at the 'First Look' thread, available at vBulletin.com:

[LA_MERC_Captain_Obvious]

show off.


small request though, would it be too much trouble to up the size of the avatars to something like 250x180 or maybe 275x200? I know they were probably reduced for a reason and shouldn't be made larger, just thought I'd ask.

had to lower, there were some horribly large ones :(

I agree.. some pages were taking to long to load due to the large Avatars
