vBulletin 3.7.0

Today, the vBulletin team released version 3.7.0. Our site will be down while I update us to the more secure version.

There are many new features and improvements to existing functionality in vBulletin 3.7.0 over vBulletin 3.6.x, most of which have already been described in the release announcements for the various pre-release versions, and in the First Look thread that was posted at the beginning of the beta process, but here is a brief list of just a few of the highlights.
  1. Inline spam management & prevention
  2. Thread tagging
  3. Search cloud / tag cloud
  4. Thread prefixes
  5. Reciprocal friendships between users
  6. Public visitor messaging on profile pages with 'conversation' feature
  7. User picture galleries with user comment facility
  8. User-created social groups with invite only and moderated membership options
  9. Extended member profile pages
  10. Customizable member profile pages with admin-controlled styling abilities
  11. Inline editing of custom user profile fields
  12. Lightbox viewer for attached images
  13. Viewable and comparable history maintained for post edits
  14. Extended re-authentication for inline moderation actions
  15. Notices system for navigation bar
  16. Multiple human-verification systems including reCAPTCHA, image verification and Q/A
  17. User change history
  18. Social bookmarking integration
  19. PHP and MySQL Requirements

What is a 'Gold' Version?

When talking about software, the term 'gold' is not related to the color of the application. Rather, it refers to the practise of burning the final version of a software product to a CD-R so that it can be sent to a large scale CD press for large-scale distribution. It is used to indicate that the code is ready for deployment to customers. The official name of this new version is vBulletin 3.7.0.

I will be updating today and hopefully everything goes good. Also what do you guys think of the new colors of our fourm?

Some of the things I have noticed.
1. While using Search function on top bar. There is 2 links 1. View all Thread started by me and 2. View all unanswered posts.
2. If you go to Quick Link there are alot of neat functions.

Also make sure to update your USERCP...
