We are pleased to announce the second release candidate of Invision Power Board 2.2 has been released.

This is the second release candidate release so please take a moment and read this entire announcement before downloading.

• As this is a RC release there may be bugs and issues with the software. Please report any issues using our bug tracker. Before reporting please first quickly check to see if anyone has already reported your issue.
• Technical support is not available for version 2.2 release candidates.
• Do not use this software on a public install. Wait for the final release for your public boards.
• If you wish to test the upgrade from 2.1.7 to 2.2 please do so on a copy of your database. Do not perform an upgrade on your live data. We will not be able to assist you if the upgrade fails.
• You will be able to upgrade from 2.2 RC 2 to future releases when available.
• In general, only download and participate in the release candidate testing if you are comfortable doing so.

What is a Release Candidate?

A release candidate version of the software is an intermediary step between the beta series and the final release. The release candidate phase allows our development team to work with the software as if it were the final version but still allow for fixing issues and other items that may come up without a new release in the final version.

If you have an IP.Board License:

To download, log in to your client area. You will see the RC download information by clicking into your downloads. As stated above, technical support is not available so please only download if you are comfortable testing software.

The first release candidate for IP.Gallery is also available in the client area. The same terms apply to the IP.Board release.

The next release of IP.Blog will be available next week.

Due to popular demand from our customers, we’ve changed our policy regarding PayPal and now accept payments from them through our storefront for all PhotoPost products and membership renewals.

Those wanting to purchase vBGallery should follow the same PayPal procedure…

I’ve had a chance to familiarize myself with IPB 2.2, and I can definitely say that the skins will be upgraded within a week of final being released… I suspect end of October/early November for a release.
