NodeBB v0.2.0 released

[julian]

Merry Christmas from the NodeBB team!

If boxing week sales aren't enough, here's a brand new version of NodeBB for you -- production-ready as always!

In a nutshell, v0.2.0 contains many new features and bugfixes, including:

• New post composer
• Support for German, French, and Spanish
• Ability to use MongoDB instead of Redis (optional)
• NodeBB is now truly "refresh-free". Notification and Unread counters now update automatically, even if the server stops and starts in between.
• Support for Private Categories (selectable via user or group)
• Many bug fixes!

To upgrade, please follow the steps outlined in the wiki.

If you were on the v0.1.x branch, you'll have to switch to the v0.2.x branch.

awesome!

Nice to see a new update I wish the composer modal was reworked better though, it just doesn't feel right having it take up half the side of my screen. Feels a lot better to have it below the posts.

[Joel Murphy]

Good job!

Agreed with the comment above about the comment box though... It would make sense (UX wise) to have it under the posts instead of taking up half of the user's screen.

Can't wait to update to 0.2.0, great work!

I also agree it is kind of weird having reply composer blocking some of the post you might be replying to.

[Pablo Macaluso]

I updated, and i get 502 xD

[julian]

Hm... great feedback re: the composer.

Does it help that you can resize the composer larger/smaller using the resize tab on the left?

Did you even know it was there? (If not, then that's a problem with us assuming that it's behaviour/functionality was immediately obvious!)

Excellent work guys!

[Steve]

[julian]

Well, @OutlawedOffroad, that's the general idea

When will the hosted instances be updated?

[dove]

Did you even know it was there?

I noticed this button immediately, but I didn't really understand what it means, I tried clicking it, but nothing changed. Now after your post, as you said we can resize I tried to move it
Wasn't very obvious at least for me

[Pablo Macaluso]

The buttons not works ... ON mobile.

You will have to clear your cache I had the same problem a few days back.

How do I upgrade to the latest version on NodeBB v0.1.1, there is no upgrade button on the control panel?
