Well done team proud of you>.....Thanks for the best product.

Unfotunately it failed for me. I followed the proposed large upgrade procedure (exact like I done the beta's before):

Notice: Undefined index: db_mb4 in /www/htdocs/xxxxx/forum_smf/Sources/Load.php on line 89

Any ideas? It's kinda small Testforum and sure I have backups but like to know how to avoid this.

Thanks for your time!

cheers!

Edited to remove quoted spam post, which had been deleted - Iris.

The beta3 is quite usable as it is, and beta4 is startet upon- on Github at least.

I am developing a new SMF theme for 2.1 beta3/beta4 and see no problem starting to use this version. No need to wait until RC versions - the more that use betas the quicker any issues can be dealt with and the sooner we can get to that stable RC version. I remember using 2.0 betas long before any 2.0 stable versions and there were quite a few changes in the default theme back then, from one beta to another.

It is perfectly fine to use the Beta version in a sandboxed personal environment, but we do discourage running any Beta version in a production environment. We certainly appreciate you testing SMF 2.1 and ultimately how you use it even in the beta stage is at your discretion.

After struggling with SMF V2.0.14, I installed this BETA version and still found the same bug...
I log in as admin and when I try to log out it gives an error... also if you log in with registered members they log into each others accounts. I tried to downgrade to previous version but seems like you can't... Been using SMF on all my previous websites and it worked great! Hope you guys will fix this soon... And also... can't install any themes on BETA...
