vBulletin 3.8.0 Released
Yesterday vBulletin announced the latest stable release of 3.8.0. Since the stable version is only a day old, Gamers Forum will not be upgraded for a little while. All new versions still have a chance to be buggy and once that is all cleared up, GF will be upgraded.
vB 3.8.0 has these followed features on top of what 3.7 already has:
- Social group discussions
- Social group categories
- Private message sorting and filtering
- Private message history
- Quick edit for newer types of content (visitor messages and picture comments)
- Social group icons
- Social group transfers
- Private message quick reply
- Private message throttling (limit messages sent over a time period)
- Private message reporting
- Profile privacy (limit blocks to a subset of users)
- Lightbox navigation
- Thread prefix permissions
- Dismissible notices
Since classes are opening up for me soon, I will not be able to upgrade in January. If 3.8 proves itself to be very stable and very good, the upgrade process for GF will most likely take place in early February.

Doesn't sound like anything that's needed right away anyway. Still nice to have an update every once in awhile.

im just liking the PM sorting and filtering, I get a ton from people all the time, would be good to see what the sorting is like then I can just sort staff pms, to unnecessary ones, to regular member help, etc...
but I can do without it for now
-
The sorting is pretty cool, so is the PM quick reply.
Well, can't wait to see the little updates we get later C:

yea, so far so good with 3.8, not many huge bugs like 3.7 had with all the security holes that forced them to bring out one patch after another
I'm not a fan of upgrading because I have to re-customize all the themes again lol - although I haven't checked how many template changes are needed for 3.8 - hope its not a lot since the feature count is far less than what 3.7 had

They come out with upgrades so often too, lol.
Well, at least it's nothing major so you don't HAVE to upgrade now.
Especially since you're trying to fix Juna Web, lol.

not really "fix" junaweb - we are just expanding our services, got a server in California that I am trying to setup, that's just giving me a headache
and yes, the update isn't major, not like 3.7 which gave you guys a different profile, commenting, albums, easier staff management, etc. so I am not overly worried about upgrading yet
and once i have the new junaweb server settled, I will have time to look more into vB 3.8 for the upgrade in the coming weeks, it'll probably cause a few hours downtime which I am not a fan of at all.

3.8 doesnt seem to have a lot of necessary things for us right now so dont rush it linux, work slowly, its the best way to work

Doesn't look like anything special, they should just hold back these updates and have a mega update at 4.0
