Jeric 46,851 December 30, 2020 Share December 30, 2020 On Thursday 12/31 at 14:00 PST, the forums will begin undergoing and upgrade to the most recent version of the software. It should be noted that this update is a significant update and the current pony theme may break temporarily, as will a few custom features we have. When the forum is upgraded and back online I will post a bug thread for anyone to note issues with using the forum and between now and then I will try and itemize any settings or changes that you can expect. As this is still 2020, pray this goes well JK it will. Maybe. 8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are some nifty features that I am thinking of leveraging .... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rikifive 24,190 December 30, 2020 Share December 30, 2020 Wait for new year to kick in - if you'll do this on Friday, we'll get the first hint of whether 2021 may be as crappy as 2020 or not.

So will there be more custom features and general upgrades? I hope that we can personalize our accounts even more. Basically read some articles there, these mention improvements, that 4.5 will introduce. Or maybe try this more-detailed format: https://invisioncommunity.com/release-notes/; It's basically a changelog. For the biggest changes, view the first 4.5 listed notes (happens to be 4.5.2). The software upgrade itself seem to focus on general layout and whatsoever. ... but what Jeric is thinking of... 33 minutes ago, Califorum said: Will banished members still be able to post blogs? Not saying names but some banished members have been posting blogs on the forums. Plot twist: One can set their blog posts to be automatically published at a specified time. So these blog posts you're referring to were created before these users were banned. ? ? Magic? You decide. 1 Playing Genshin Impact?

Cash In 22,344 December 30, 2020 Share December 30, 2020 Had a read and really am digging some of the new features. But now I'm genuinely curious if 2020 is going to get one last laugh at our expense. :/ 1 At first I rejected the zero, but that was because I simply didn't understand it. Now I do.

Twilight Sparkle97 402 December 31, 2020 Share December 31, 2020 I'm going to ask this one more time. Will banished members profiles still be visible with this new upgrade? Also, will my Mrkrabs account get deleted when the new upgrade updates tonight? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will banished members profiles still be visible with this new upgrade? Yes and no. This depends on what you mean by banished. Invision, by default, allows all users to access a banned users profile. So yes. However, the default system does not visualize to other users that someone was banned. We had some custom automation that moved users from the normal user group to one named Banished. However this is no longer a supported feature. Basically, unless you know the person off MLPF, you won't know if they are banned going forward. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
