XenForo 2.1.5 Released
XenForo 2.1.5 is now available for all licensed customers to download. We recommend that all customers running previous versions of XenForo 2.1 upgrade to this release to benefit from increased stability.
Some of the changes in XF 2.1.5 include:
As always, new releases of XenForo are free to download for all customers with active licenses, who may now grab the new version from the customer area.
Note: add-ons, customizations and styles made for XenForo 1.x are not compatible with XenForo 2.x. If your site relies upon these for essential functionality, ensure that a XenForo 2 version exists before you start to upgrade. We strongly recommend you make a backup before attempting an upgrade.
Current Requirements
Please note that XenForo 2.1.x has higher system requirements than XenForo 1.x.
The following are minimum requirements:
Full details of how to install and upgrade XenForo can be found in the XenForo 2 Manual.
If you are already running XF 2.1 or above we strongly recommend upgrading directly from within your control panel.
Note that when upgrading from XenForo 1.x, all add-ons will be disabled and style customizations will not be maintained. New versions of add-ons will need to be installed and customizations will need to be redone. We strongly recommended that you make a backup before attempting an upgrade. Once upgraded, you will not be able to downgrade without restoring from a backup.

- Avoid a quirk on the deferred loading rich text editor in Firefox which may insert an empty line when content is first entered.
- Update Redis cache provider to use del function rather than delete.

- Disable validation when reverting to a previous revision of content
- Check that the follow/unfollow ignore/unignore result returns something before attempting to read any associated errors

- Prevent false positive detection of duplicate key exceptions in queries due to generic SQL state code.
- Gracefully handle a race condition when inserting bookmarks.
- Make the list sorter more usable on touch devices by ensuring the page doesn't scroll when trying to drag items.

- Fix timestamp issues after timezone/DST changes
- When loading recently used smilies/emoji, prioritize smilies over emojis when there are conflicting shortcodes. (This may still lead to the incorrect icon being shown, but only when the conflicting emoji is inserted instead of the smilie.)
