"6.0-To-6.1" Upgrade pack and Dolphin 6.1.1, Ray 3.5.1 Patches Released!

First, the long-awaited "6.0-To-6.1" Upgrade Pack is finally released. Feel free to upgrade your site, raise it to a higher level and boost your community with these new cool features. We are sure you'll want to take full advantage of this upgrade, so we warn you to please keep in mind this note before doing the upgrade:

Dolphin is now completely search-engine friendly. All content pages have friendly URLs, which dramatically improves your chances of becoming indexed by major search engines. This is a major improvement and should improve your traffic. Be careful with this one - Google may think that too many URLs have changed and may actually penalize your current site. So, we recommend putting permanent redirects from old URLs to the new ones to avoid problems. This may be shaky after the update, but in the long-term, or for a new setup - the new links bring a tremendous advantage.

Upgrade instructions and Diff


Second, as was previously announced, the first Dolphin 6.1.1 and Ray 3.5.1 Patches are released! We have made the corrections to Dolphin footer and Ray widgets regarding links removal. It is strongly recommended that you apply this patch. Along with these corrections we brought a set of bug fixes in Dolphin, Ray and Orca. 

Upgrade instructions and Diff


The latest packages are available at the download pages on BoonEx.com.

If you have questions before doing any upgrades, do not hesitate to contact us.

Hmmm...I have to reinstall my Ray Server and overwrite many files I have made LOTS of changes to ??

"general.css" for example...

I think I will let some other people do this first and report back. It is not clear by the initial post if it even removes the hidden boonie links (the circle with triangle in it at the top left of all Ray modules) as well as the video player and the music player, the Boonex banner that appears when you hit the Help button in Chat, etc...

You would think you could just replace some SWF files and be done...I don't have any footer problems.

UPDATE:

I did exactly what I wrote above and just replaced the SWF files. I think I am good to go now :)

That was way easy and only took a couple of painless minutes !!

As far as I can tell, I am completely link free...If anyone can find any hidden boonies, please let me know.

A few more days of tweaking and testing and I am going to feature some prominent links on my "Tube" site and start to populate this sucker !!

Wonderful work on the dolphin upgrade...I think it is 10 times better than before, ...I hope this patch will take off the 'GO TO BOONEX HOME' link on the ray widgets.After we pay for the widgets it is very unfair to have a link that reveals the source of the script.If this patch does not do that ..Please give us back the old logoless Ray widgets..Thank you

My Bin directory is: usr/lib/php i.e. no /local/ folder

This is not a problem I had before the upgrade to 6.1.1

I have many mods in 6.0005 and it will take a few days to reinstall in 6.1 and test. So I would like to do a "practice upgrade" to a copy of the site using a snapshot of the database, then re-install my mods in 6.1. When tested, I need to shut down current site, reload database from 6.0005 site to 6.1 site, upgrade database, and make 6.1 site the live site.

But it looks like the upgrade script can only be run once. I need an "import" utility to pull 6.0005 database into 6.1 database after 6.1 site has all mods installed.

I would think my case is common. Is there a better approach?

I mentioned this in a seperate blog, but I'm not sure Boonex has seen it yet, and its a bug that is still in 6.1.1. Its been tested and confirmed by severa of us, with fresh installs.

You cannot have more than one join page. As soon as you set any fields to additional pages in the join process you run in to problems.

I doesn't setup the account properly. It seems like it's not passing all the data from page to page.

There are several of us that can't upgrade 'til this is corrected.

I think you have a great product, with a caveat. Why isn't there any instructions on the download page to choose Ray ad-free vs. Ray free, people are just left to guess which one to download. Now after doing three installs and populating the sites, we find out we can't register any Ray Suite products as they are ad-free and all need to be registered (paid). This is incredibly frustrating and in all the programs I have installed on our server, this has to be the most frustrating ever. The permissions was beyond reasonable in itself during install, Oscommerce, ZenCart, heck, not even linux on a fresh box required as much work. Now we have to start over again? Or is there another solution.

While we want to buy some mods for the site, we didn't have to expect to be told licenses were wrong that were issued in boonex admin but won't take in the actual login....

Read the "latest news" at my website:

http://earthweblink.com

They didn't allow me to post whole News article - only ...."snippet", because they know people would write many bad comments about their "software"...

Don't be fooled with their "Free" software: if you want fully functional website, they ask a $1,000 !!! If you do not have it they won't speak with you!!!

I was waiting patiently for ANY answer from them whole week. Did not receive a ....... single word from their "Tech. Support", not even "Thank you for contacting us"....

Comment #2:

They are more concerned about their "footer and licence removal" then about functionality of their software!!!

That is true face of their "Unity": new, wild capitalism "made in Russia".

I hoped they have hones intentions. ..... Behind every capitalism and private company is only MONEY, not any NOBLE "Unity" and "happiness" of the people about which they have full mouth. In the reality they are hundreds of years behind West.

And, when they finally arrive where West is today, in the West will be at this time true socialism...

And this that they are ONLY after our money! You stole word from my mouth...

If that is the case, why they aren't honest enough and say: it costs sush and such money....Why, because in that scenario NOBODY would ever look at some ..... russian software company....and they know it wery well !!!

About your comment that is $1,000 "reasonable" price for their NON-WORKING and ..... software (probably badly stolen from the West), WE ALL frustrated users here can testify how "resonable" is EVEN FREE price !!!

Hi all!

@ j153,

thanks for your numerous comments here, however I had to remove foul language from your comments.

I'm sorry that you have not received a reply from our support team, but there is a reason: We are working hard on patches, upgrades etc. and all BoonEx departments take part in testing and helping developers to make these to improve the product quality. We do not divide customers on a paid or free basis, and we are doing our best to answer the multitude of requests which we get daily. Unfortunately, we physically can not accomplish this and provide you with the answers as quickly as we’d like, but we do answer - maybe with some delays, but still we do OUR BEST. And, we are infinitely grateful to those who understand us and are patient.

We are one of a few companies, who provide you with the software for free, and if you, for your own reasons, cannot understand how to use this free software it does not mean, that we're inept. On the contrary, there are actually only a few like you, and those who are using our software successfully and doing their business, while you are complaining here and writing bad words about BoonEx and to BoonEx customers, represent a much bigger part of the populace.

We do not force you to download our products – this is entirely up to you, Good Luck!
