XenForo & Add-ons 2.3.0 Release Candidate 1 Released
It's finally here, the first of a series of release candidates for the XenForo 2.3.0 stable release. We still have a bit more work to do and other changes and improvements in the pipeline but at this point the most serious bugs have been tackled and we don't expect many more releases before we can declare it is ready for a stable release.
We strongly recommend anyone testing 2.3 during this pre-release period upgrade as each pre-release version is released.
More specific details regarding bugs fixed in this release can be found in the
resolved bugs forum.
This is pre-release software. It is not officially supported.
We do not recommend running it in production.
Please remember that this is
pre-release software. It contains known bugs and incomplete functionality.
We do not recommend running pre-release software in a production environment, and support is limited at this time to questions here on the community forums.
Add-ons and custom styles may be broken after upgrading to 2.3. You must test your add-ons thoroughly or look for updates. Be especially careful with add-ons that cover similar features to ones that are added to 2.3; these may conflict with the core XenForo data. If data conflicts are found, they will need to be resolved in a new add-on release or by removing the add-on
before upgrading to 2.3.
If you choose to run pre-release software, it is your responsibility to ensure that you
make a backup of your data. We recommend you do this before attempting an upgrade. If in doubt, always do a test upgrade on a copy of your production data.
