Invision Power Board 3.0 Announced

Posted on April 30, 2008

Invision Power Services have announced the development of Invision Power Board 3.0. They promise a new

Features Include

  • Template engine
  • Search engine friendly URLS (I presume /forumname/topicname rather than ?fid=493&tid=98 )
  • New BB Code system
  • More Administrator controls (Picky options i’d image – turning signatures off in specific forums etc..)
  • Reputation System (Finally catching up with vBulletin ;) )
  • Enhanced permission and moderator systems.

They say they are adding more integration tools, so you can integrate it with your existing website, or adleast provide some easier integration tools; it will also have tighter integration with other IPS products such as the blog, gallery.

Its interesting to see that they are dropping support for Oracle. They boast about having so many big business clients, i’d presume they all run Oracle, and yet are dropping support for it. Mayby they are turning back into a community board rather than a business board?

I’d be interested to hear your thoughts on that.

    About time, I was getting sick of IPB, the last version I liked was 2.0!

    Hello Everybody

    Just wanted to share my new experience.

    If your system fails to run due to an error corresponding to missing HAL.DLL, invalid Boot.ini or any other important system boot files you can repair this by using the XP installation CD. Simply boot from your XP Setup CD and enter the Recovery Console. Then launch “attrib -H -R -S” on the C:\Boot.ini file and remove it. Run “Bootcfg /Rebuild” and then Fixboot

    Cheers,
    Carl
