Upgrade to ExpressionEngine v1.3.1 and Discussion Forum v1.1

I’ve just completed an upgrade to the latest version of ExpressionEngine. In addition to this upgrade, I’ve just installed the latest release of the Discussion Forum module.

According to the pMachine site:

ExpressionEngine 1.3.1 is primarily a maintenance release, providing fixes for bugs that have been reported recently, including a problem experienced by people running PHP 4.4.0.  EE 1.3.1 also has a number of small enhancements and minor code updates.

The latest release of the Discussion Forum, v1.1, enables you to submit forum posts along with weblog entries and content for your site, and associate forum posts with those entries.  In other words, you can have a “discuss this in the forums” link in your weblog/site entries. I really like this feature and I blogged about it here.

For a complete list of changes, please see the change log.
