#2162944 IP.Board 3.2.2 and Apps Released

Posted IPS News on 31 August 2011 - 08:04 AM

Invision Power Services, Inc. is pleased to announce the release of IP.Board 3.2.2, IP.Chat 1.3.1, IP.Gallery 4.1.1, IP.Blog 2.4.1, and IP.Downloads 2.4.1!

These releases are maintenance releases after our highly anticipated release of IP.Board 3.2 and its related applications. These releases fix many reported issues.

We are releasing the following new software:




IP.Board 3.2.2

Fully featured community platform including forums, members profiles, calendar, status system, integration, and much, much more.



IP.Gallery 4.1.1

Categories and photo albums for your members to share their images and videos on your community.



IP.Blog 2.4.1

Allow you and your members to post blogs on your community or syndicate externally hosted blogs easily.



IP.Downloads 2.4.1

Complete file management application including file version control, commenting, and forum topic linking.



IP.Chat 1.3.1
Engage your members in real time chat or send them private chats while in the chat room.



Also, IP.SEO 1.5.0 is available in the IPS Marketplace.


Release Notes
  • If you are upgrading a community with a large number of posts from version 3.1.4 or earlier you may wish to have your web host execute the post table alter query on your behalf. Large post tables may time out running this query in the browser. The upgrade system will warn you if this is needed. As a benchmark, our install of 865,000+ posts took a bit less than 3 minutes to run this query.
  • If you are upgrading from version 3.1.4 or earlier, your skin will of course need to be redone after you upgrade to 3.2.
  • The visual skin editor in 3.2 should still be considered a beta feature. It will be improved with each maintenance update.
  • Each of the applications specified above is only compatible with IP.Board 3.2 and not older versions (for example, IP.Nexus 1.3 cannot be installed on IP.Board 3.1.x).
  • We may reply to this topic with hot-fix patches or notes if any critical issues come up so please use the "Follow this Topic" feature to get notified.
  • If you experience any problems, before submitting a ticket, please disable all third party applications and hooks.
  • Please remember that IP.Calendar and IP.Chat are separate downloads in your client area.  You will need to download and upgrade these separate applications (in addition to IP.Board itself) if you wish to continue using them with IP.Board 3.2.



Please read our 3.2.0 announcement for a full list of what's new in the 3.2 series!
