The SimplePortal Team is happy to announce the release of SimplePortal 2.3.4, code-named "Cherry!" This release includes many minor feature additions, improvements and fixes for bugs found in the 2.3.3 version.
We urge all users to upgrade to SimplePortal 2.3.4 as soon as possible to take advantage of the new features and bug fixes. A summary of the features and fixes is as follows:
Features
- Two new positions for blocks: header and footer.
- Revamped permission system with the ability to deny permissions.
- Complex display options using PHP expressions for block display.
- Implemented basic flood protection for shoutbox.
- Introduced group based shoutbox moderators.
- Added ability to prune shoutboxes with various options.
- Links posted to shoutbox are now shortened.
- Added ability to whisper (post private shouts) in shoutbox.
- Better handling of ignored users in shoutbox.
- Brand new RSS Feed block with a better parser.
- Allow selecting blocks (not) to show in pages on page add/edit.
- Allow overriding block titles using language strings.
Fixes
- SMF 2.0.1 and 1.1.15 compatibility.
- Improved compatibility with other mods.
- Improved Right-To-Left languages support.
- Several fixes to package database functions.
- Custom theme friendly fix for broken headers.
- Unescaped entities in shout dates could break shoutbox.
- cutoff tag was displayed when it shouldn't be.
- max-height failed on older browsers.
- Copyright was misaligned due to recent changes in SMF.
- Fixed MySQL 5.5+ compatibility.
- Board news pagination link was sometimes broken.
- Applied board permissions to the article management area.
A full list of changes for 2.3.4 can be found in the changelog.txt file within the SimplePortal package.
Unfortunately, there is no auto-upgrade option from 2.3.3 to 2.3.4 due to the number of changes. So, if you are running 2.3.3 or an older version, you can upgrade by following these three steps. You shouldn't lose any data, but for safety, you should always back up before modifying your forum.
- Uninstall SimplePortal.
- Download SimplePortal 2.3.4. (http://simpleportal.net/index.php?action=downloads;area=stable_simpleportal_packages;file=115;download)
- Install SimplePortal 2.3.4, and you are ready to go!
Finally, please do not use this topic for any support requests. You will get a much more prompt response by posting in Install and Upgrade (http://simpleportal.net/index.php?board=54.0) board.
Thanks for all your support, and keep those bug reports and feature requests coming!

Congraatsss! :D

So, you need to upgrade from RC1?
-
We do not advise that you use RC1 on a live site, so yes, we recommend that you uninstall RC1 and install the final version.
-
Thank you very much :nervous-happy:

Great updated.. keep up the great work.

Works fine here ;D

does it keep all my info on the blocks? Because I have alot of stuff on the front page. the site is http://garfieldp.com for reference
-
You will not lose your data when uninstalling unless you check the box to delete the data tables. It's separate from the file dialogue, so you shouldn't mistake it.
-
Great job! Thanks.

he he thank you eliana i not see this before :)

Thank you for the new version!!! I see there are very much improvements. I am a little bit afraid to upgrade to the new version. Old one is working ok.
-
Congratulations!
Now I've really got to get on top of upgrading my club's website!
-
I got to say, excellent job people. I always preferred Simple Portal over the others due to it's light weight and ease of use for my customers.
Finally adding the header and footer blocks was indeed a great move and notched you up in competition.
Not to mention the RSS feeds now opening in a new window, something that most other portals simply don't do without major code modifications.
Good work. ;)
-
Woohoo for the totally-rewritten RSS feeds!
-
Thanks for everyone who took part in shaping and testing this version. It turned out to be a lot better than I thought it would, except for a few unpleasant bugs, which we are working on the best the way to deal with, as soon as possible.
-
Nice people ;)

thank you very much :)

How can I whisper in the shoutboxes?
-
What does God need with a shoutbox? Sorry, couldn't help myself, although I realize barely anyone will get that reference (and for good reason).
Anyways, if you care to use our handy search function, you'll find a plethora of topics already on this subject. Here's one of them: http://simpleportal.net/index.php?topic=10210.0
In the future, try to ask support questions in the support board. These announcement topics are not a good place for them.
