[Closed] wpForo 1.7.0 is released!

Robert · 2020-02-04T02:10:03Z

We just released wpForo 1.7.0 middle version! Mostly this version includes major changes in core architecture. wpForo is well optimized and made more flexible for future development. The future versions development will be easier and faster. Lots of hooks are added too. Almost all addons are improved with new major functions. We're currently preparing those to release... Important update notes Some JS and CSS files are changed, please refresh (press Ctrl+F5) on forum front-end twice to reset browser cache, otherwise you'll see crashed design. If you have a Cache or Minifier/Optimizer plugins please delete all caches after wpForo update. If you use CDN and found some issue please purge it. Forum template files are modified. The modifications were made in layout files to add "jump to unread post" functionality. Also, the header.php is modified and added User Notification Bell in the menu bar section. If you have an old customized copies of forum template files in your WP theme /wpforo/ folder please update those. Main Changes 1. In Forum Notification Finally, we added in forum user notification system. This is the first version so it'll be actively improved with new features in upcoming versions. Currently, it notifies for: - New reply in your topic - New reply / quote to your post - New like to your post - New up / down vote to your post 2. My Profile and Notifications Widget In case you've disabled forum menu bar with the Notification Bell you still have an option to get forum notifications using My Profile and Notifications widget. If you use the notification bell in Menu bar you can disable the bell in widget using widget options. This widget is very flexible. All components can be disabled. For guests this widget displays [login] and [registration] buttons with different widget title. You can change widget titles too. Also, you can fully disable this widget for guests and keep it only for logged-in users. 3. Jump to the First Unread Post This function is directly added in topic links by default. All topic links on forum home page, on forums list and topics list are already enabled to refer you to your first unread post. Just make sure you're logged-in. Another way to let people see unread posts is showing [new] indicator next to topic titles.This [new] indicator can be a link to first unread post or a simple indicator. It depends on the corresponding options in Dashboard > Forums > Settings > Features admin page.

I have a question, is it possible that the new Notification Bell will integrate with the Private Messages addon in the future? It would be great if it could display notifications when users have new private messages.

I can start a new topic if that is a better place to discuss.

Thanks again 😊

Eva

Yes, we'll add it in the new notification system in upcoming versions.

Have to say, one of the changes I appreciate a lot is that images are now made a small thumbnail when editing a post, no more scroll-a-thons to add tags etc. 👍
