Just a gentle query

Hello Adrian,
Just politely wondering what version of Xenforo WT is currently on? I saw from the link below that embedding content is available in v2.3, which looks a nice feature for some of us to embed our content here into personal websites, whilst continuing to post on WT.

We're currently running v2.2.12, v2.2.13 is available but the few improvements didn't seem to warrant an upgrade at this point.

Yes there are quite a few updates in v2.3 that look extremely useful - the gotcha is that it hasn't been released yet. Xenforo has a policy of releasing versions "when they are ready" and it appears not be ready at the moment. They have upgraded their own forum to v2.3 (affectionally known as dog-fooding!) and they then run a series of "have you seen" posts to prepare forum managers for the forthcoming changes.

You can read up on all the gory details here - if you wish to.

Welcome to XenForo 2.3, what's next?

If you are using a computer or mobile device using dark mode, and you have been living under a rock for the past several weeks, you might be rather surprised at the appearance of the XenForo Community Forums at this point. On the other hand, if you have been paying attention, you'll understand...

By co-incidence it revealed why one member was having trouble uploading a photo, there is an article on improved image processing in v2.3 XF 2.3 - Image optimization, enhanced image resizing, and more! and that mentions an upload limit of 20 megapixels on photos prior to resizing, the photo in question was 24 megapixels - hence the problem.

Thank you Adrian for letting me know.
