wildweaselmi Posted December 16, 2009 Author Share Posted December 16, 2009 Okay, so apparantly I downloaded just the forum vbforum_4_4-0-0_Release_Candidate_4_xxxxx.zip When I should of downloaded the Publishing Suite vbulletinsuite_4-0-0_Release_Candidate_4_xxxxx.zip So I am going to start the test site all over again but I have to say that the test from vBulletin 3.8.4 Patch Level 1 upgrade to vBulletin 4.0 RC4 was successful. Very clean and no issues. Some things to expect: All your applications/modifications don't work (change to disable in plugin manager) All your Style/Template's won't work (it will default to new vb4.0 style) All your Style/Template modifications don't carry over (example navbar changes) Go through Maintenance and click on each maint item once But Social Groups carried over with permissions intact Forums and User Groups carried over with permissions intact Albums & Pictures carried over with Private Albums still Private Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wildweaselmi Posted December 17, 2009 Author Share Posted December 17, 2009 This new version is just too nice to leave on the testing bed so I upgraded the main site. Now the downer is that I no longer have access to the Garage until they update the software, which is one of my favorite add-ons. So for those of you looking for the Garage, its coming but is now on hold until CND releases version 2.1 which will work with vBulletin 4.0 Now I am working on Classifieds which should work.

shadowmac Posted December 17, 2009 Share Posted December 17, 2009 Personally, I like the change. It is very clean and I'm getting the hang of where everything is. I miss the GARAGE and CLASSIFIEDS you had before. I hope those will come back soon. ALSO before you could insert an image and could browse your Albums for a photo to put inline with your blog or forum post. Bring that back as well... Great job!
