Invision Community 5.0.5 Beta 1 Released

Mr Milchick approved

We're back with a brand new release! This release fixes a few of the bigger issues reported over the past couple of releases.

Elasticsearch

For those using Elasticsearch, please note that the new minimum version for Elasticsearch is now 8.0, with the latest version 8.17 recommended. Those using Elastic search in v5.0.4 and earlier (including all of v4) will need to upgrade their Elasticsearch server, and then rebuild the search index.

We chose to update to the latest version of Elasticsearch as v7 is no longer supported and there's been some document level changes in how data is stored. We've tested it thoroughly but let us know if you find anything odd!

Using Betas

If you do not see an upgrade, it means that you do not have betas enabled.

Invision Community Cloud

Cloud customers can opt-in to betas in the client area.

Invision Community Classic

Self-hosting customers can either download the release from the client area, or add the following line to constants.php

define( 'USE_DEVELOPMENT_BUILDS', TRUE );

If you do not have this file, create it in a text editor, so the contents looks like:

<?php

define( 'USE_DEVELOPMENT_BUILDS', TRUE );

Let me know how you get on!

Coming up soonish

There's some discussion around sluggish javascript in some areas. This looks to be specific to Chrome and occasionally Safari, which honestly has taken a nose dive in quality recently. We think we know why, but it's taking some time to figure it all out. Essentially, we think it's some parts of our older javascript framework struggling with the new CSS framework. We'll get it figured out, but I wanted you to know that we're on it.
