No date yet. The details are a couple tasks need to be done and that necessitates redesigns to make them happen. When that's done, it's beta time.

The new design looks beautiful

Thanks, much appreciated! Now we just need to get v4 beta out to ya, and that'll round things out nicely.

@Paul - Great work with the new Blesta website and forums!! Huge improve over the previous version, now I am definitely excited for the future of Blesta! Kudos!

The import from Wordpress was useful in that it converted all of our posts into Markdown files that I was able to import into the project. The posts required some tweaking to work properly, but the import saved a ton of time. We built the theme using Bootstrap, SASS, and Gulp, and converted it into a Hugo theme. So, most of the work was building the new site, creating the Hugo theme. Importing Wordpress posts was really the easiest part. I did have to create some shortcodes for displaying Vimeo videos in posts, responsive images, and buttons. They include some shortcodes already, like code highlighting that was very useful. So, posts consist of largely markdown content, and some shortcodes to avoid the use of HTML in the post content.

Looks a lot more modern. I like it from what I have seen so far at least.

Alright, got Gravatars turned back on. Fixed a couple custom avatars that were hard linking to http:// and causing SSL errors. If you find anyone whos avatar is breaking SSL, please PM me their username and I'll correct it. So, what does everything think of the upgraded forums?

The forums have been upgraded. One thing to note is that you need to log in with your Display Name. On the old version, it was possible to have a username that was different than your display name. If you are having trouble logging in, login with your name as it appeared when you posted.

Thank you for your canadian cents, lol. They end up in our vending machines. No really, appreciate the feedback. Smaller quicker releases is our goal. v4.0 is turning out to be our biggest release since 3.0. Much of it was unavoidable with the framework upgrade. So, hoping to avoid that going forward. In terms of custom code, modules/plugins/gateways, with few exceptions, they should work. One change that you will probably want to make, is to update the buttons to use bootstrap buttons. However, that is largely cosmetic. We built a bridge for backwards compatibility with minPHP 1.0. Still, any custom extensions should be tested prior to an upgrade. Feedback during the beta will be helpful as well.

paul, how did you find the conversion from wordpress to hugo went? Were you able to re-use any elements, or it had to be completely designed from scratch?

The feed includes anything we post on our blog. You can change it if you want. For example, if you just want stuff from News you can use: https://www.blesta.com/categories/news/feed.xml If you want stuff from Security, you can use: https://www.blesta.com/categories/security/feed.xml Removing the existing feed and adding those 2 will get you pretty much just information about Blesta.

I have corrected these. They seem to have to do with people that uploaded their own avatar. Seems IPBoard does not reference them with a relative path, and includes http:// in the image tag. I'm sure there are more, if you find any please let us know!

Well, Blesta.com used to be built on WordPress, and they moved to Hugo, so they're just announcing this...... what is your problem with this anyway? why is it bothering you ?

Great work. Navigation and notifications are much better.

Forced SSL is the best part imo. Already found some broken ones though On the lounge page (https://www.blesta.com/forums/index.php?/forum/17-the-lounge/) I got 4 ssl errors Mixed Content: The page at 'https://www.blesta.com/forums/index.php?/forum/17-the-lounge/' was loaded over HTTPS, but requested an insecure image 'http://www.blesta.com/forums/uploads/profile/photo-thumb-499.png'.

You could implement those NonmerchantGateway methods in your gateway, but they would never be called. Neither Blesta core nor the Order plugin implement them for use. You could create an order plugin that does call them, which could work in a similar way as the current buildProcess. However, there will probably be some additional changes necessary to fully support an 'in-context' payment transaction.

You like it? Some stuff to fix/figure out like why I don't have an avatar. Glad icon is still here.
