This release is marked alpha because it is feature incomplete. The release is installed on Tux Reports, and the front page shows off some of the new features.

Improvements include respect for the WordPress “allow comments” option found in the edit post page of WordPress; this ensures a XenForo thread is not created for a WordPress post when the checkbox is unticked. There are two new widgets: staff members online widget and top posters widget. The featured forum widget has been reworked to sort based on the last post and links to members is now done using XenForo_Link::buildPublicLink.

An option is now available to turn off all widgets. This master on/off switch is available in the XenWord Settings Panel and will stop the loading of all widget files.

If you are using any of the 3.x releases, then please update to this latest version.
