SMF 2.0.12 to be installed

Previous topic - Next topic
The forum will be upgraded in the next couple of days to 2.0.12, an incremental update to the SMF 2.x software.

I am backing up all of our files prior to our upgrade process, so you may notice a slow down with the site.

If there are any issue after the upgrade, please let me know.   :cheers:

Dear Members,

Simple Machines Forum has released a new patch to the 2.0.x line, bringing our latest release version to 2.0.12.


This patch is a security and maintenance release, which focuses on fixing a couple of minor bugs, while adding some enhancements and a patch to a security vulnerability reported in the software. Therefore, it is important that you install this patch in a timely manner.

If you are running version 2.0.11, you can upgrade your forum to the latest version by using the package manager. As usual, you should see the upgrade notification in the admin panel notifications and in the package manager, which will allow you to download and install the patch seamlessly.  If you don't see the notification about the upgrade patch, please run the scheduled task "Fetch Simple Machines files" from the Scheduled Tasks page (Admin > Maintenance > Scheduled Tasks > Fetch Simple Machines Files (check the "Run Now" checkbox and click the "Run Now" button)).

If you use older versions of SMF, you can upgrade directly to 2.0.12 from whichever version you are currently using by using the "full upgrade" archive from the downloads page. Be aware that using this upgrade method will require you to reinstall any customizations that you have added to your forum, so if you are running a version of the 2.0.x series, it is recommended that you apply the successive patches instead of using the full upgrade.

You can view the change log for the latest release, as usual, on the downloads page.

If you are having problems downloading the patch from the admin panel, you can download the patch package from the upgrade patches page and install it via the package manager, as you would any other mod package

Please refer to the Online Manual for more details about:

Patching

Thank you for using SMF!

Forums never really get fun updates. But it's understandable.

Has anyone tried logging in to SMF's official site? Their verification is  :censored: , if this is what the login system is going to be like I think I'll be forced to leave. Their "enter the letters in the image" crap is annoying. I seriously CANNOT pass it. I mean hell, put it in binary because I'll crack that quicker than their deformed verification system.

Our verification system will not change.

You should not notice any changes at all.  I only made this post in case some of our addons stop working for some (remotely possible) reason.

Chill my peeps  ;)

It is easier to apply incremental updates rather than major updates.  Generally, these are security fixes and not any functional changes to anything.

Okay, I was just wondering because sometimes with updates you get small little features.

Seems interesting, but what's that login bug they talked about?

Thank God. I'd rather not be tortured with some MI6 verification process each time.

Talking of changes, may I bring back the request for likes on posts? I can't remember the exact reason it was removed before, but I've realized a couple of comments that I guess wouldn't have been so necessary if we had likes:

If comments could have likes, I'd like this. ^^

I'm pretty sure the reason the feature was removed was because people didn't like it or something?

Ah okay, that's good.

I thought it would've took longer, but looks like it didn't.
