Update and Beta Info

[GaalexxC]

Quickly

• Removed all code and reference to NFO files, this can be easily created and customized via extra fields
• Removed the beginnings of proposed public torrent inclusion. The tracker is meant to be private & secure and that can only be achieved by keeping everything local. So public torrents are NOT supported
• Not focusing on any gravy mods right now like freeleech, points, ratios etc. Just getting a fully functional basic secure tracker up and running and will go from there. Devs are encouraged to create plugins/hooks/extensions for this. Shout out your ideas, Pull requests, and contact me, might be easier to plug right into the main app
• Keep in mind this is being developed in a PHP 7.4x and MySQL 8.0.20x environment and is fully compatible with those versions, cannot guarantee anything before PHP 7.3 or MySQL 8.x working fully if at all.

BETA

• Currently in Beta testing, if you are interested in joining in email me gary@devcu.com
• Once I am satisfied with performance and all aspects I am looking for it will be released to public
• When? October 2020 :)

Beta testing has begun. I have put 2 weeks aside for this, could be less could be a bit more. Will post updates when applicable.

Decided on upgrading the 4.4 version to IPS 4.5, not going to support legacy software. So if you want to run this application you will need the latest IPS builds. Also will not release full application here at Github thanks to some morons on these boards. Full release files will be available for supporters only now and those who request them personally from me. Put 2 years of work in my spare time into this and guess what, I value that time and effort. If you do than I thank you in advance.

Current IPS version compatibility: IPS Community Suite 4.5.3

Any ETA for a full release to the public?

[GaalexxC]

I am upgrading and/or refactoring the files for IPS 4.5.4 and a full release will be available first week of January 2021

[kobayashi90]

To summarize this release, supporting you to get the full version doesnt work, webpage registration is paused (offline)
And friendly asking for full code doesnt happen either so this is kinda frustrating since its kinda a nessesary project.

This project has been going on for years, I doubt it will ever complete. Don't waste your money or time on this project. I've watched this project for 2 years that I know of. This joker should be removed from Github for taking money from people.
