Hello @Members,
The upgrade is finally done and everything is almost back to normal. "But what actually changed" we hear you cry, "Why was the upgrade needed?" Let's have a look!
XenForo 2.1 includes a large number of new features and improvements, including:
As you would expect with push notifications, you do not necessarily need to be viewing the forum when the notification is received, nor does the browser even need to be active, as demonstrated here:
(Only really downside is that Apple Smartphones are not supporting this..)
Here is the whole "Have you seen...?" - Series by XenForo for the geeks who actually are interested in every small detail
Very Important!
If you experience any sort of bug or weird behavior which is not normal please report it straight here. As I mentioned already, some smaller bugs are still around and also the style of the forum needs some further tweaking to fit better into the new XF2.1 environment.
Leave a comment, leave a question. Every post is more than welcome
