changelog

• When a new update is found, forums using that addon are notified instantly, no more waiting up to 6h for the update notification to arrive

  • 40 addons in the free API key

changelog

Since it was requested by a few customers to allow more add-ons, we decided to add 2 new tiers..

If you currently have e.g. 60 extra add-ons and choose to upgrade to 120 extra, the remaining days on your current license will be prorated, e.g. 50 days remaining on license @ 60 extra add-ons becomes 25 days remainings @ 120 add-ons + 1 year from that date.

thanks to dear member @jessy updated Add-on Update Notifier with a new update entry:

changelog

Since @Xon has started using a special versioning format to streamline their development, we needed to update our backend to be able to map their released version_string values to the actual version_id values used.

This is a backend change so there is no need for updating the add-on on your site, and you should start getting update notifications for Xon's add-ons correctly again.

thanks to dear member @jessy updated Add-on Update Notifier with a new update entry:

changelog

We added a new section to our site that highlights new/fresh and trending add-ons that might be of interest.

The existing "best Xenforo Add-ons" page only highlights the most used ones, which favors older add-ons that have been around a long time and therefore will likely have more installs.

This new section is more dynamic and will boost newer add-ons higher up to promote new and popular add-ons as well.

Currently, the formula is a quite basic number of installs / days since release, but...

thanks to dear member @jessy updated Add-on Update Notifier with a new update entry:

changelog

A bunch of add-ons are using the 90-prefix to bump down the version_string, while still using a larger number.

We had code in the backend to handle this when parsing the version from add-on pages, but had forgotten to add logic that could automatically notice & mark these add-ons as using the "90-prefix/hack". So a couple add-ons in our system were being parsed as using "normal" versioning.

Because of this a couple of add-ons have not been reported as having updates when your forums' have...
