Thanks to all of you on the FBB team & the Alpha Testers for getting this release out. I'm currently backing up my old install prior to installing 2.3.
I'm looking forward to the Lightbox feature as you are aware!  Another big step toward my Fusion site going live.
Haven't got a clue about Google site-map so I'd better get googling & see what it's all about.
Thanks!

Busy testing & trying at the moment.
Install went smoothly right to the last step when I was asked if I wanted to open a file called go_edit_language.php. This opens on my PC in GEDIT by default & is blank. From memory, once I'd done that the install was stuck on the final screen so I hit refresh which took me back to the license agreement. I then decided to go to my sites URL manually - everything seems ok.

I've posted a few bugs in the relevant forum but I must say I do like the browse feature you've built into Lightbox - click an image for the next one to appear. Plus the feature closes by clicking anywhere 'off' the image - much easier than having to hit the 'close' label.
Great stuff!

Is there any documentation on using the new Google Sitemaps functionality?

Not yet, we have a few things that need to be documented yet including sitemaps and lightbox. I'm hoping to get the lightbox stuff documented this week yet.

Installation went perfectly, very nice job, you guys.
I particularly liked finding this line:
/* //Josh isn't sure if he's done with this code
:~)

Update on test site went smoothly from version 2.2.1 to version 2.3. All good so far. Will post back if issues are encountered.

You can see Lightbox in action in the Test Gallery. Make sure you have Java Script Enabled on your browser.
As for the Google Sitemap I can not point to example of that in action.

I'm creating forums at a rapid rates of knots as I'm working on my forum virtually full-time at the moment.
Every forum I create I'm ticking the 'Enable Site Mapping' box - I'm assuming it can only be a good thing?

Great stuff!
I forgot to mention the backwards navigation as well - mouse over the left of the pic for 'Previous' & the right of the pic for 'Next'.
What I have just discovered with this which I think is great - if there are pics in a reply the script allows you to navigate straight onto them as well, from the OP, just by hitting 'next'!
Well, it works for me using the markup method. I haven't tried the non-markup method yet.
Awesome!

With the changelog for FBBv3 already swelling with new features will we be getting the documentation on the Google Sitemap feature soon?
It looks like I need to open a google account & I've read the info here & am only guessing that ticking the sitemap box in each forum generates the file Google need?

Thanks Couch - got it. I'll add that to my to-do list for pre-launch.
