OxWall version 11000 | Forum

I see on GitHub that they are changing the version number of all plugins (from OxWall). I guess they will finally release an automatic update for everyone.

Until now you could download the updates and install them manually but few people know how to do that.

Too bad it takes so long that many users and developers have left the platform, but you have to be happy, OxWall is not dead and there is still a light at the end of the tunnel.


I have them all installed ... there are no major improvements. Only small corrections.

Most notable is the mailbox plugin that unifies messages and chats and leaves everything as chats (as in SkaDate), and you stop being able to have several conversations with the same member, only an infinite one. The "update" of this plugin goes through them, but if you have thousands of conversations hangs up, I hope they fix this before launching it. It also includes emojis.

Another issue is the coding of databases ... the CHARSET = utf8mb4 COLLATE utf8mb4_general_ci "that I don't know how they will fix it because there are many servers that do not support it (like mine)


New people may be encouraged to use OxWall if they see that http://devblog.oxwall.com/ is updated for example, that it is worth reading the date.

This isn't entirely true, there are actually some mobile dash additions for editing profile and password.


Also, I believe that build number was updated Oct 6th, 2017...


Updating libraries has some performance increases and removes some issues for PHP 7.


Scene 2.1.1 (20101) includes all this at the time of installation:
