Exactly

I think it will be better to update in the nodebb blog about new version referring to the fixes and new features. Other than github, its always better to keep a change log inside this official forum, like wordpress, discourse and all. It will help new users a lot.

julian

Oh boy, you guys pounced all over v0.5.3

Yes, it is out, and no, we usually don't publish it as a blog post. This came hot on the heels of 0.5.2, so there are not too many updates and changes, but I'll be publishing a changelog shortly.

As for the milestone, I'm closing it now and all of the unclosed issues have been pushed back to 0.6.0.

Yes, it is stable, and if you do find a showstopper, report it to us and we'll backport fixes until it is.

Yes, that would be much better.

Thank.

@Master-Antonio, we all start somewhere. Questions are great because they help you learn.

The best way I've found to learn a new platform is to just set up a test environment and explore every option and capability that the admin panel offers. Find out what you like and then make changes accordingly.

a_5mith

@Ted To continue to that, if you break it, start again.

@a_5mith, and to continue that:

You will break things. Frequently. But that's okay, just undo your changes and give it another go!

Cool I'll pass my production on stable branch I think it will be less risky.
Still playing with master on local tho

How do you denote breaking changes in data schema. Specifically, can I upgrade my redis data that was built on v0.5.0 to v0.5.3?

I found 1 incompatibility already - public/upload seems to be organized differently.

<baris>

We usually make thread about it in the forum, and keep breaking changes to major releases like 0.6.0 will have breaking changes. You can upgrade from 0.5.0 to 0.5.x the upgrade process will take care of upgrading your redis or mongo database.

psychobunny

Yeah in general we do make a new blog post if there's something really outstanding and we really would love if you upgraded to latest kind of thing. 0.5.2 -> 0.5.3 was mostly minor bugfixes and such, we only really released it because we're going to

(and add a bunch of cool things) very shortly.
