General and security

  • Handling of attachments (based on mod Improved Attachment Error Handling)
  • Drafts
  • Tokens (security)
  • jQuery
  • A new WYSIWYG editor SCEditor
  • phpinfo directly into the admin panel in the server settings pages
  • Deny access to boards
  • Ability to specify how long to keep moved topic notices before they're deleted (via scheduled task)
  • End of admin and moderator sessions (security)
  • Ability to enable/disable both admin and moderator security [asking for password to access admin panel and moderation panel]
  • IPv6 support
  • Smart-emulation (the package manager is now able to propose a SMF version to emulate in order to install a mod)
  • New tags for packages: <credits> (tag for inserting mod credits in to the credits page), <requires> (tag to basic mod dependency), <hooks> (tag to add / remove hooks)
  • Detection of mobile devices
  • Previews of several things are now available (Personal messages (now AJAX), news and newsletters, warning template and warnings, signature)
  • PHPDoc (also needs to change the coding guidelines to reflect this)
  • No backwards compatibility with PHP < 5.1. Meaning, you need to upgrade to at least PHP 5.1.
  • Per board group moderators
  • Moved number of required verification questions to the verification questions area of the admin panel [not in the CAPTCHA area]
  • Install allows registration settings to be selected [immediate/disabled etc]
  • Package manager has proper error message if a theme is uploaded
  • Integration Hooks management, allows hooks to be enabled/disabled

Hooks

  • Many more hooks (will follow a list of the most important)

Minor improvements

  • Added categories for boards to membergroups management pages (easier to use)
  • Post recount for members added to maintenance menu
  • Improved calendar export function
