You mentioned that feature code has been completed and the finishing touches are being done on the documentation. Does that mean that v3 is more or less stable and we can expect an official release within a week or so?



Also a happy and prosperous new year to all. Find Reply

V3 is more or less stable, yes.



You can expect an official release candidate when we are ready, but we are not committing to a specific date! V3 is more or less stable, yes.You can expect an official release candidate when we are ready, but we are not committing to a specific date! Website Find Reply

Whilst I appreciate you are all busy, may I suggest that the forum adopts a mobile friendly theme too? Most of my time I spend on forums is when I'm out and about, hopping between buses and trains, spending time on my phone. It doesn't have to be immediate but it'll just be the icing on the cake.

The longer you postpone CI 3 release date.



The longer you push discussion of CI 4 and then its eventual release date.



It's 2015. Gimme a break.



Will we see a 2016 release of CI 4? The longer you postpone CI 3 release date.The longer you push discussion of CI 4 and then its eventual release date.It's 2015. Gimme a break.Will we see a 2016 release of CI 4? Find Reply

Great idea, but the theming comes from MyBB, and messing with its CSS is not for the weak at heart! Great idea, but the theming comes from MyBB, and messing with its CSS is not for the weak at heart! Website Find Reply
