We've upgraded to 7.5 beta 2.

Here are some features that will be available:

• FEATURE: Rearranged the profile splitting up information into different boxes.
• FEATURE: Added a UBB Buddies box to the profile page which will show who as added that particular user to their friends list.
• FEATURE: Added a visitor comments section to the profile page.
• FEATURE: Added a link to view the Board Rules in the footer.
• FEATURE: Put in an option to use the old style forum search. Full-text searching will probably be faster on larger forums, however this gives the option to search for shorter words or words that might be ignored using Full-text searching.
• FEATURE It is now possible to add an image for each group. Users belonging to that group will be able to display that image next to their name. If a user belongs to multiple groups, the user can select a single or multiple images to be displayed.
• FEATURE: If the poster has the ability to lock a topic in a forum, they will get the option to lock a topic while creating one.
• FEATURE: It is now possible to reply to global announcements as long as the user has the ability to reply to regular topics. Locking the announcement will make it so it cannot be replied to.
• CHANGE: Since the Member List can be sorted by Last Online, it will now show when each user was last online.
• CHANGE: Users will be able to delete comments posted to their own profile.

As it is a beta release there are still some bugs visible. The most obvious ones at the moment are the distorted avatar image (if you have one) on the Profile page and there is currently no link to the forum rules visible in the footer.

We're now running 7.5 final so the earlier bugs should now be fixed.
