Announcements

Keeping with our previous weekly beta release schedule, we are now ready to release our third beta, both of XenForo 2 and the official XenForo 2 add-ons. Generally speaking, this release has focused on fixing bugs and attempting to avoid upgrade issues, both for the core and add-ons. Two of the more significant changes in this area include: The schema manager change system will now identify conflicting tables or columns and rename them instead of stopping with an error. If this happens, an entry will be added to the server error log. The add-on install/upgrade/uninstall system now tracks the last step that was completed. If a user receives an error and later comes back to retry that same action, the action will resume from the first...

One week after the release of XF2 Beta 1, we are now ready to release our second beta, both of XenForo 2 and the official XenForo 2 add-ons. Much attention has been paid to the feedback we've received regarding the upgrade process, and we've worked hard to mitigate various problems that have been reported, so hopefully the upgrade process will be smoother this time around. We've also been busy squishing bugs, and many of the more serious or pressing issues have been resolved. You won't find much in the way of new features in this release, as we are concentrating on getting the code to the point where it can be declared stable rather than adding new stuff, but one exception to this in in the Quick Thread system, where it is now...

We are happy to announce that XenForo 2.0.0 Beta 1 is now available to all customers with active licenses. XenForo 2.0 includes a large number of changes, both to the underlying structure of the code and the exposed features. More details can be found in the have you seen forum. We have previously released a number of developer previews to enable customers and developers to get a first-hand look at the XenForo 2 code, experiment with the new architecture and features, and prepare themselves for the time when XF2 becomes our stable and supported version. The developer previews were invaluable in identifying bugs and usability issues. However, the developer previews were limited in one crucial way -- the upgrade system was disabled in...

Today, we have taken a major step forward in the move to make XenForo 2 our primary, stable and supported platform. While we have run a XenForo 2 demo since November, the main community site has remained on XenForo 1.x during development. After ten public developer previews, we now consider XF2 to be ready for further duties, and therefore we have upgraded our own forums. XenForo 2 represents a significant technological advancement over XenForo 1. The entire software architecture has been rewritten for enhanced efficiency, stability and speed of development. Systems such as XF2's entities provide for easy, rapid, error-proof fetching and manipulation of data, allowing new features and add-ons to be developed with hitherto unseen...

Today, we are pleased to release XenForo 1.5.14. This release fixes a number of bugs and issues that were found since the previous release. As this is a maintenance release, the vast majority of the focus was an increase in stability. Some of the changes in this release include: Fix an issue with Chrome's XSS auditor when submitting content using the rich text editor in certain scenarios. Prevent warnings from being inserted in an expired state. Fix a situation where message counts would be adjusted incorrectly when approving a thread while moving it (such as in the spam cleaner). Add "nofollow" to certain links related to the find new system. Adjust the naming of filter list cookies to be shorter and not include query string params...

Today, we are pleased to release XenForo 1.5.13. This release fixes a number of bugs and issues that were found since the previous release. As this is a maintenance release, the vast majority of the focus was an increase in stability. Some of the changes in this release include: Disable the HTML5 uploader for older versions of Android (< 5, not using Chrome) due to incompatibilities.
