All ZetaBoards servers have been upgraded. This upgrade includes 17 new/improved features as well as 8 bug fixes.

Highlights are in green.

New Features as of August 24th, 2009:

  • Forum jump added to Active Topics page
  • ACP: IP Ban system upgraded. The confirmation page now lists how often the a member has posted with a matching IP. It also says when they first and last used those matching IP Addresses.
  • Spoiler BBCode tags now have an optional title parameter. Example:
    Spoiler Title

  • Image BBCode tag now supports resizing. Example: Posted Image
  • Every page has been tagged with a unique ID or class (aids in customization & advanced themes). See the full list at: http://if.invisionfree.com/topic/5061963/1/
  • ACP: New IP Address Manager. Find all the IP Addresses used by a member or look up a specific IP Address to see which members have used it to post.
  • Option to show buttons for each BBCode. If you disable a tag the button will go away.
  • ZetaBoards Premium is now available at a discounted yearly rate. A full year of Zetaboards Premium for the price of 10 months!
  • ACP: A new Staff security portal. Check to make sure your staff have reasonable password quality scores to help protect their accounts. A score of 3 or 4 is excellent. A score of N/A means we have no scoring data available for that member. They can update their password and a score will be generated for that password.
  • Advanced double post merger. If a user makes two consecutive posts in a topic, they will be merged into a single post. There is an admin preference if the merge should be treated as an edit (no postcount increase and the topic doesn't get bumped) or a new reply (postcount increase and the topic gets bumped). If the combined post would exceed the maximum post length, then a consecutive post is allowed.
  • Improved page load speed of the edit post screen
  • Improved page load speed of topics with attachments
  • Improved page load speed of post edit history
  • Improved login speed
  • Improved page load speed for viewing topics and PMs
  • Improved posting speed
  • jQuery 1.3.2 is now installed on all boards.


Bugs Fixed

  • Removed stray comma at the end of the birthday list on the board front page.
  • ACP: Attempting to ban an email address of the form test.user@example.com would give an error.
  • ACP: Fixed display of multiple log entries
  • Improved BBCode Parser. Fixed a bug that caused a submitted post not to load or be posted.
  • Error: This account does not need to be confirmed. Error Code: 22026 Changing email address on board that requires email validation sent an email with an invalid confirmation link.
  • Clicking the submit button more than once when trashing or splitting posts could result in the topic breaking or having the wrong reply count.
  • Blank topic or PM titles
  • Spaces at the beginning of edited topic titles caused topic sorting issues.


ZetaBoards Premium boards have 2 additional features in this upgrade.
1. A premium-exclusive sneak preview of the new ZetaBoards® Shoutbox. Click here for more info on the shoutbox
2. Automatic tracking of PMs sent via the warning system.

Keep an eye out for more as we keep adding exciting new features. If you have any questions about the new features or bug fixes, please let us know.
