Prior to release of miniBB 3.6, a few add-ons were updated, which are compatible both with the
version 3.6, and the older releases.
Such add-ons as
Private Messaging,
Contacts Form and
Direct Email were critical to release in advance, because they contain the code related to an important change of miniBB core scripts regarding sending emails (emailing function will be separated from the functions file and provided in the standalone file).
The other add-ons like
Premoderation and
Profiles Checker now include more sophisticated way of appearance among top menu items. Profiles Checker also contains the new structure for the bb_plugins codes.
All Premium add-ons were updated to their new versions under the Customer area, and the free add-ons — under
miniBB Downloads. Also all of them were updated in
Compiler and available for testing on
miniBB Demo.
You could upgrade your add-ons versions manually. For instructions, read further below.
