When will the next update for CodoForum come out and what will it have? It's been a while and I would just like an update on the progress. Thanks!

It is taking a while because there are some important features in the next release,

these include,

Topic Merging
User Reputation
User Ranks
Design overhaul
Sticky Topics(some important fixes)
and many more

Design overhaul... scary! All I've done is switch the colours around though so it should be fine. Can I see the new design somewhere and prepare my 'theme' to make sure it will be okay?

By the way... how does the update clock work? Always seems out of whack to me.

Hi,

We always forget to update this clock

Looks like we need to automate this now.

:p Finally

WHEN? Simple question

^ I agree!

Hi,

We have found some security issues in codoforum.

Although codoforum is ready to be released, we need to fix them and do some testing.

We will release it in 3-4 days.

Since, we were not able to fix a proper release date, we did not update the clock.

Hi, maybe you can consider some way to make unstable version release before releasing the stable version like RC(release candidate)? That community can check them, told what is bad, what works or what not. Because community have lot of people who want to experiment with different ways and so on. And big testing probably is better. You know how the system works and how it should work.. We don't. We simply read documentation and forum. And then we found thing that not working, we can give you idea about what you should make. we can slowly start making some plugins, and so on. I think that you should make software based on community, because community is that who use your engine.
It's only my opinion and maybe you can consider of making 2 download links one of them who is stable version(who updates after lot of testings) and second one with unstable version who update every week as example.

Sounds like a good idea actually.

Hi,

Yes, we agree.

We will release the next version normally.
After that, we will see how we can incorporate your idea

Thanks for the updates on here... respect!

I guess that's another potential suggestion. Is it realistic to have a clock that forces you to try and release a new version every month?

Instead of seeing a clock, maybe we could see an RSS feed of news/announcements/progress so that as admins we know what's going on rather than simply questioning why the clock appears to be wrong? I feel the clock is more a 'target' than a true indication of what work is going on and how much work/effort is required on your end to perfect the next stable update.

I don't expect updates monthly... I much prefer the 'when they are ready' approach, and respect that the devs are humans. Also, I'd much prefer to wait a month while you fix security holes rather than deploying a vulnerable version, having my forum hacked, being temporarily suspended by my hosting company (for hosting malware) and losing my whole forum community as a result of a half-baked update. Safety is my #1 priority and I'll wait indefinitely for it. I really respect your current approach, which is to get it 'right' rather than getting it out the door ASAP.

Update on progress? I am really looking forward to the next version.

Hi,

Done, we have released the new version.

Consider it as a beta release, as there are too many changes .

Upgraded without any problem.

Good work guys!

Is there a changelog?
