Sometime soon (note: soon is relative, and very open to interpretation) I hope to have these forums upgraded to vBulletin 3.6.0 (we're currently way behind, at 3.0.7). The big jump in version numbers means I have lots of work to do, getting the old custom code (CD-Media, CD-Events, CD-Swap, Spotlights, Countdown, Text-Message Reminder, UFH/WFA, Portal mainly) migrated over to the slightly different code base. It's not a hard job, just tedious.
The bad news: it's going to take a while to go live, especially with all the other stuff I have going on. Once I have something close to being finished, I'll send out a URL and have you all test it out and tell me whats broken or what I forgot to put back in. Until this upgrade is finished, all other modifications/additions/changes are on hold.
The good news: vBulletin 3.6.0 is pretty cool.
Some improvements & new features:
- Multi-Quote: You can quote multiple posts in a thread without having to manually add the QUOTE tags and put their username in, etc, etc.
- Better 'Read Post' tracking: If you haven't read the posts on a thread, browse for a few minutes, come back 3 days later, your posts will still be marked 'unread'. (Right now, you have 15 minutes of inactivity before they're all automatically marked unread)
- Upload a signature image (so you don't have to put it in CD-media). This used to be available here, but got lost in one of the upgrades.
- BCC added to Private Message System
- Lots more here
