In this post I would like to highlight how we are proceeding with the 4.X series and what we are expecting to introduce as part of the series. Please, note that these are not ordered in terms of priorities, but provided as a target list. And of course, as denoted in my previous post, 4.1 will include the top 4 items in this list.

As previously mentioned, we are also working in a re-factoring. The first element to be re-factored is the editor. There will be a common editor across the product. This will improve usability, as users will have a common experience for posting and editing with the added bonus that it also supports WebKit. As a note, not all of our re-factoring efforts will have a visual component, however, with each release we will let you know what was re-factored.

And also as previously mentioned, we will be also working on issues. The target is that each release will have a good mix of features, enhancements and bugs. It is very important to us that just as we deal with the challenges; we also further the product and what the product offers.

I do want to make a special note on one of the features included in this list as it pertains to some question from the previous post: Custom Content Type Builder. Some of you asked about the “review” content type. The Custom Content Type Builder will have a few primitives from which we all can build new content types. In theory, and as it has been specified, you should be able to build a review content type with the tool.

Without further ado:

• Member Profile Customization
• Overhauled StyleVars
• Improved and integrated upgrade Process
• URL Mapping (CMS in root etc.)
• Improved CMS editor
• Google Auth + Twitter
• Mobile Skin (m.vbulletin.com)

• Enable Community Moderation (vote up/down content)
• Additional Login Options (Google, Twitter, OpenID, Email Registration, etc)
• Subscription Option: Google Checkout
• Improved Asset Manager
• Updated email management/ and templates to prevent blacklisting
• PostgreSQL support (this will assist and be a part of refactoring our database structure)
• CMS Workflow (change author, draft, approved, unpub date)
• Inline Style/Theme Customization (Inline UI to edit StyleVars)
• Invite Friends Features
• Find Friend Features (via Address Book: Yahoo Mail, Gmail, AOL, etc)
• User can self-delete their profile/account
• Ad Management for Blogs and CMS (and more advanced Forum integration)

As part of the vBulletin 4 Forum Only package, we publicly state that technical support via our ticket system is not included (outside of the initial 1 month period after purchase of the product), and to receive ticket support you need to purchase either ticket or phone support for the product. Until now this is a policy we have not enforced, in an effort to provide additional support to customers following the release of vBulletin 4.

This is a notice that we will start enforcing the policy from 00:01 PDT (GMT -7 hours), October 1st 2010 for anyone on a vBulletin 4 Forum Classic license. Until October 1st, we will continue to honor this grace period for ticket support for vBulletin 4 Forum Classic Licenses.

Speaking as a true Vbulletin lover, I have always been looking for interesting themes for this forum script. Frankly speaking, there is not that many themes out there, but you can still find some good ones, if you want to style your website pretty well (and of course for free).

Anyways, I have stumbled upon one great free theme for Vbulletin, which is called BB-blue and has a pretty attractive layout. As for me, this theme could be applied almost to any web community (you can even create your own custom logo, free of charge, by using a PSD file, which is included in this theme’s installation folder).

Anyways, BB blue doesn’t look like a regular theme for Vbulletin, it is a top class template, which is available for free, for anyone !.

Some Features are:

Fixed width of 900.
Rounded corners via CSS (no images so you save bandwidth).
Custom "statusicon" made for this style.
100% compatible with vBulletin 4.0.5 version.
Custom Logo with its PSD included into download.
Custom Background.
Easy to install.

I'm currently searching for a forum partner for my website design & development community.

You must be interested in the niche, dedicate time to the forum and must have a vBulletin 4.0 license which can be used for the forum.

I already have a top level domain name ( indexed on search engines for popular keywords to the forum's niche ) which can be used and HostGator hosting.

You'd help me manage the forum as an administrator if you allow me to use your vB 4.0 license & you can place Google ads on the header of the forum to make some money if you want. ( nothing too messy )

If you're interested in this partnership, private message me. If you have any questions, you can post here. We can talk more on MSN live messenger if you'd like to. ]]> Help Wanted Marc http://www.vbulletin-faq.com/forum/showthread.php?15903-Looking-for-partner-with-a-vBulletin-4.0-license http://www.vbulletin-faq.com/forum/showthread.php?15902-Hello&goto=newpost Sun, 22 Aug 2010 14:21:54 GMT Hello,

4: Simple method
Out of 12 (ish) keywords use the top three search keywords that are relevant (you can use the keyword popularity tool on G00GLE or Yahoo). Then cart the 3 keywords at 75% frequency, next 50% afterwards 25%.
