Die beliebte Forensoftware Discourse wurde aktualisiert und liegt in der Version 3.3.0 beta2 vor. Beta ist normalweise keine Version die produktiv installiert werden sollte, jedoch sind die Releaseversionen bei Discourse anders gestaltet, sodass die Beta durchaus installiert werden kann und grade im Falle von Sicherheitsfixes, installiert werden muss.

Purwin-IT bietet Discourse mit zahlreichen Modulen in übersichtlichen Hostingpaketen: https://www.purwin-it.de/webhosting/discourse

Die neue Entwickler haben viel Arbeit in die Weiterentwicklung gesteckt und umfangreiche Fehlerkorrekturen und Neuerungen in das Release von Discourse gesteckt. Nachfolgend lediglich die Auflistung der neuen Funktionen und Bugfixes - die Highlights.

Um Discourse in der Öffentlichkeit besser zu präsentieren wurde beschlossen, ein "Power by Discourse" badget unten auf der Seite, der Self-hosted sites anzuzeigen. Diese Option kann über die Einstellungen deaktiviert werden.

Eine neue Admin Sidebar wird nun nach Themen in Gruppen dargestellt und kategorisiert, was der Übersichtlichkeit dienen soll. Alle neuen Seiten haben diese aktiviert, bestehende können diese mittels admin sidebar enabled groups setting aktivieren.

Das neue Bookmark Menü wurde neu designed und erlaubt Schnellfunktionen sowie das bearbeiten und löschen von Reminder.

User können nun direkt aus dem Profil per Chat angeschrieben werden. Die Übersicht der Keyboard Shortcuts ist nun noch übersichtlicher gestaltet. Und zu guter letzt noch die mobile Ansicht, die nun mehr modale Optionen, wie den Reminder anzeigt.
