vBulletin.com is now powered by vBulletin 4.1.2
vBulletin 4.1.2 is also now available as a public Beta. This can be downloaded from the vBulletin Members Area at: http://members.vbulletin.com
Please note:

• We do not provide support for Beta versions
• Some minor bugs remain unresolved at this time, and we do not recommend beta software to be installed on production sites.
• We always recommend that you back up your database fully before attempting to install beta software.

vBulletin 4.1.2 includes:

Mobile Style
Integrated lightweight mobile style.
This mobile style is optimized for all webkit mobile devices in most languages, and will auto-detect if a user visits the site from a mobile device and render the site in the mobile style.

Please note: Currently this style is included in both the vBulletin 4 Publishing Suite and the vBulletin 4 Forum Classic, however the Blog and CMS of the Publishing Suite are not currently covered by the mobile style - the mobile Blog and mobile CMS styles are currently in development, and slated for a future release of vBulletin. Both the CMS and the Blog will still be accessible via mobile devices, but will render in their respective web application styles.



VerticalResponse Integration
We have enabled direct integration with the professional e-mail management service, VerticalResponse.
As a vBulletin customer, you will receive a free trial of the service, and it will enable you to send professionally managed e-mails to your userbase with full reporting from your adminCP via VerticalResponse. Please note, VerticalResponse is a paid for service.
Please note: PHP SOAP is required for the integration to function correctly.
