Staff Diary: v2.0 Cycle

luceos

Trc4 Is there an approximate time frame when 2.0 will be released to the public?

When we feel it's ready to go stable. Aside from that we are also in the process of using our NLNet grant connections to have the 2.0 beta audited, feedback from that is likely going to be included before a release. Taking this into account, I feel that a release this half of the year is not likely.

SychO

Trc4 Hope it's compatible with Byōbu by FriendsOfFlarum. It would be fatal for us if we lost all messages.

it is not a byobu replacement. Byobu will likely still be updated for 2.0

Yolo

SychO it is not a byobu replacement. Byobu will likely still be updated for 2.0

I hope there will be a tool for importing. This is the most used messenger and it would be a shame if all the messages were lost.

SychO

Yolo there will be no import tools, but you can still use both extensions together. Or just continue to use byobu alone.

I wouldn't be opposed to seeing such a migration tool crowdfunded to copy Byobu discussions into the Direct Messages extension, I feel the foundation might actually have an interest in having such a tool available. It doesn't have to be first party or maintained by FoF either, as long as its clear what purpose it serves. What do you think?

Just a heads up, thought i would try the Demo site for 2.0 but it seems to be down.
Also, any roadmap availible for upcoming beta and/or final releases?

Was considering implementing Flarum but the search in current 1.x version stopped that so considering either waiting for 2.0 or jumping to something else, hence i wanted to see the demo site for 2.0.

Fixed.

luceos Fixed.

Perfect, that was quick. Much appreciated @luceos

fakethinkpad85

Might not be the right place but noticed in the current Beta that partial word search is not currently implemented, any plan for this in the final 2.0?

ie, searching for "search" would not match "searching" in the post content or title.

Gerriet

Thanks for fixed the demosite ;D

Metus24

Will there be a native support of a Progressive Web App? This is THE best feature for me. Just discovered, that the PWA Extension hasn't been updated for 6 months and I am afraid its abandoned... I just built up a community as an replacement for a Facebook group community and the PWA is a real game changer to gain acceptance in the community

Also nested Replies would be a great feature for me

No, it will remain an extension. But many people use it, including clients from flarum bv, so we carry it's maintenance collaboratively.

Worke5r86 How (not when) is planned migration from 1x to 2x?

The upgrade/migration from latest stable 1.8 to 2.0 should not be an issue in terms of database integrity. Whether extensions you use are compatible by then will be the biggest question for most communities. We are doing our best to make the transition as simple as possible.

Regarding posts, users etc.
I know that addons will have to make an update
