SMF 2.0 Release Candidate 2 is out for Charter Members!

[Antechinus]

Of course I can but damned if I'm going to do that. RC1.2 will be dropped like a hot potato soon. Why bother?

[Arantor]

I just figured if you already had a RC1.2 version, it might have been easier for users if it's a single package.

As long as mods get updated, though, it's all cool really.

[orelanic]

does anybody know how many mods this new version breaks?

Most mods (and themes) that work on SMF 2.0 RC1, will have to be rewritten for this release. This is a *big release* that introduces an entire new theme with and  markup which would break compatibility.

I suppose that if your worried you can wait a bit longer until the mod get updated before you update smf

I'm going to be reviewing all my mods next week when I'm back home to update for RC2.

Yes but I'm a let them eat brioche kind of bastard. As soon as RC2 goes public I'll remove the RC1.2 version of the mod. I'm not into encouraging people to use outdated and buggy software.

Congrats guys

Sounds good - and indeed, RC2 fixes a number of issues in RC1.2.

The file edits are different because of the different templates but the xml syntax is the same as it always was. I've just updated one of my mods and it works fine on Curve.

Enjoy. 

Tried to install on RC2 and get this error message:

The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF.

Also, I have changed in the package-info.xml file the for to

Code Select Expand

for="2.0 RC2" and doesn't work as it still gives me this error when uploading it via Admin -> Packages -> Download Package -> Package to Upload.

The package you are trying to download or install is either corrupt or not compatible with this version of SMF.

Ok, nevermind, I know what happened now.  It's all fine now.  I had selected Advanced and reverted it to RC1.2 and forgot to revert it back to RC2.  All is fine now.  Everything is working as it should.

Thanks anyways.  Feeling a bit dumb now.

after upgrade, smf 2.rc2 can update the old skin based on core (2rc1.2) ? 

[Antechinus]

RC2 comes with core installed.

RC2 comes with core installed.

Core-based themes still need to be rewritten. (Remember, I've been through this.... You don't wanna know )

[Antechinus]

Oh yeah I know all about that. Can't avoid it.

Hmm I've seen no one else reply this, so I'll do it.

To the team: if you find this post offending, feel free to delete it.

A RC2 dating back a week or two: http://geez.fr/ (registration disabled, no posts allowed, it's a test site I installed for testing purposes only.)
My live site also has Curve installed (not by default, though), I'm reworking it to fit my needs, I'm far from being done (about 10% only) so it's just for the curious minds.

Add ?theme=1 to the URL to switch to Curve, or ?theme=9 to switch back to the default theme.

Thanks for demo. I appreciate it.  Though, did anyone notice that when looking posts footer image is apart from rest of the forum? I saw that on 2 different forums so it must be some kind of design glitch.

Yes, I noticed it too!
And, also, the "Info Center" is too near to the above line "No New Posts - Redirect Board"...

Anyway I really, really like Curve!!
