Post Icy Phoenix 2.2 Beta 1 
 
Hi all,
I'm glad to announce that Icy Phoenix 2.2 Beta 1 is available for downloads.

What's New Respect To Latest Stable Release

  • PHP: increased compatibility with recent PHP versions
  • Plugins System: improved with new functions and features
  • New Classes: to improve coding and modding
  • Templates: few edits to templates functions and parsing, prepared for HTML 5
  • Thanks System: has been removed in favour of Likes System which supports AJAX and offers more flexibility.
  • Album: has been removed as a core component and created as plugin.
  • Cookies And Privacy Policy: due to new web rules, these two new sections have been created.
  • Many smaller updates and features... install this beta version to enjoy them all!



Old templates: please note that templates designed for Icy Phoenix 2.0.0.86 or below won't work with this version. At the moment apart of the styles included in the installation package only proSilver is available over GIT: Icy Phoenix Styles @ GIT.


Translations: please note that lang packs for Icy Phoenix 2.0.0.86 won't work with this version. Lang packs need to be updated before you can use them on your site. I will update all lang files in download section as soon as translators will send me their latest release. You can find latest development translations here: Icy Phoenix Languages @ GIT.


Customizations And Mods: please note that this version has many core code differences from the previous one, so it is really unlikely that old customizations and mods will work on this beta release. You can test current development versions of plugins if you wish: Icy Phoenix Plugins @ GIT.


Requirements
Before trying to install Icy Phoenix make sure you have the following STRICTLY NEEDED requirements:
  • At least 20 MB of free space in the folder you would like to install the package
  • Web server with PHP (5.2 or higher) installed and running (works best on Linux + Apache)
  • MySQL (5 or higher) database with at least 5MB of free space (of course the space needed depends on how big your site will be... 5MB is enough for a basic empty setup)
  • Ability to set CHMOD permissions

These other requirements (even if not strictly needed) are suggested for optimal performance of Icy Phoenix:
  • Webserver with .htaccess capability
  • Apache Rewrite Mod installed and running
  • GD Libraries (at least 2.0.28) installed and running
  • Register Globals set to OFF



Fresh Installation
  1. Unpack Icy Phoenix package to one folder on your HD.
  2. Copy all Icy Phoenix files in one folder on your webserver (i.e. /icyphoenix/)
  3. Set the permissions to CHMOD 777 to the following files and folders (please note that you may not have all of them in your setup):
    • backup/
    • cache/
    • cache/cms/
    • cache/forums/
    • cache/posts/
    • cache/sql/
    • cache/topics/

    • logs/logfile_spammer.txt

  4. Launch the setup from the install folder: install/install.php (i.e. http://www.mysite.com/forum/install/install.php)
  5. Follow all the instructions on the screen, fill all requested data and complete the setup
  6. Delete or rename install folder
  7. Customize what needs to be customized in files and db (some files needs to be edited manually, while most of the options may be set in ACP and CMS)
  8. Enjoy your New Site



How To Upgrade From Icy Phoenix 2.0.0.86 Version
  1. Lock the site from ACP
  2. Make a full backup of your website (both files and DB)
  3. Remove all old Icy Phoenix files, but make sure you are not deleting other stuff you may need!
  4. When deleting files, pay particular attention to custom files and folders like these:
    • config.php
    • backup/
    • downloads/
    • images/
    • files/
    • logs/

  5. Copy all new Icy Phoenix files into your root
  6. Make sure you apply the right CHMOD permissions as listed in the Fresh Installation section above
  7. Launch install/database_update.php and update your DB
  8. Delete or rename install folder
  9. Customize what needs to be customized in files and db (some files needs to be edited manually, while most of the options may be set in ACP and CMS)
  10. Enjoy your New Site

You're right... I need to update that list.

And hopefully my "nightmare" period at work will end soon!

I don't know... we should wait for some Spanish guys to translate that.

How could I help?
A doubt, this version is recommended for use in live?

No, it's not really recommended for use in live yet.

It'd be really helpful if you'd try to use it locally (that means, run a beta version on your computer and test to see if stuff works. report any problem here)

I quote Informpro... the best thing you can do is trying to setup and update on local servers, and eventually report back should you encounter any kind of issue.

You may provide me how to do the translation into Spanish?
or is there a file only with phrases like XenForo?
to make it easier?

There is one, I'm not sure if someone else did the translation already (I think not). Anyway, you can take the previous version's files, and only translates a few more bits... Tell me if you're interested, I can probably guide you in the right direction :-).
