So far Version 8 Beta 2 has had 149 downloads in 24 hours, which isn't to bad.

So, I'm guessing from the lack of posts of people reporting bugs that most of the bugs in beta 1 have been addressed and that Beta 2 is a stable release.

Please post any feedback, both positive and negative so that I can get a general idea of how things are going.

Don't know if this has  to do with just me or the forum itself:
 
The XML page cannot be displayed

Cannot view XML input using XSL style sheet. Please correct the error and then click the Refresh button, or try again later.


Access is denied. Error processing resource 'http://forums.webwiz.net/css_styles/rss_XLST_style.xsl'.

Thanks JCH2, the RSS Feed from the page does work, and the XLST style sheet works in both IE7 and Firefox, but the present XSLT style sheet was a bit of a rush job to get it included in the beta 2 release.

I going to be witting a complete new one for the final version as soon as I finish the chapter on XLST in my XML book.

Don't you worry, I have been picking through this beta version (Access and MSSQL) with a fine tooth comb and am yet to find any errors lol...

The only problem i can see is what exactly are the poor mod builders gonna have left to do?

    I've found the following bug when 'mass mailing the admin group' from the Admin CP:

Microsoft VBScript compilation error '800a0411'

Name redefined

/forum80/admin_member_mailier_send.asp, line 68

Dim strForumEmailAddress     'Holds the forum email address
----^

If you correct this by commenting it out (not really correcting, I know), you get the same error on the following two DIMs:
Dim strMailComponent          'Holds the mail component to use
Dim strMailServer     'Holds the mail server

They are already defined in admin_common.asp, which is included in the admin_member_mailier_send.asp
By the way, is that file supposed to be name admin_member_mailIer_send.asp?
The other file is named admin_member_mailIer.asp as well, so is it the same typo twice or is mailier actually an English word I don't yet know?

1. for starters as i read this topic thru to page 2 i wanted to post a reply at the end of the thread. after hitting the "post reply" button it took me to the login screen which i logged in.
 
-after the successful login it shot me back to the main forum.
 
-wouldve been nice to have kept me at the same point i was at before having to log in.
 
-this helps people not have to find the thread they were reading.

just installed v8.2 and was wondering when the final version of 8 comes out is it just a matter of replacing files, or will there be a sql script to upgrade database also????
 
the reason I ask is because I am using v8.2 as the forum on my website (as of today), i was previously using version 7.9. and i found no script in the download of 8.2 for upgrading the database so i pretty much am starting from scratch again with a new database.
 
no biggie i only had 5 posts and 2 members so starting over from scratch wasnt a problem, but i dont want to do this again in the future.

last question,

i really like the calendar feature but found limitations/restrictions..

-is there a way to post events with out having to post a thread???

i would like to use the calendar as a calendar of event for my community site.

example: an event occurs the first saturday of every month, i would like to set this event one time  for the whole year and not have to repost every month.
