Community Upgrade & Downtime: July 9
As my fellow community manager klburns posted on the Quest Forums here, The Meta Developer Forums will be undergoing a major platform upgrade! This change should improve both the performance of the forums as well as the UX, making the forums easier to use and to operate. For convenience, I'll include the key elements of the other thread here as well: What to Expect: Starting at 6 am PDT on July 9: the community will be down for a few hours while we perform the upgrade. We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause and appreciate your patience. After the upgrade is complete, the community will be in read-only mode for a few more hours while we ensure everything is working smoothly. During this time, you will be able to read existing content, but you won't be able to post new comments or create new threads. Once the read-only period is over, the community will be fully functional again, and you'll be able to enjoy all the benefits of the upgrade. Community Structure Changes: In addition to the structural changes being made over on the Quest Forums, we're also planning some changes to the structure of the Developer Forums as well—and like the Quest Forums, this will include restructuring the forum categories for simplicity and ease of use. This will include both consolidating some existing forums to keep conversations focused (don't worry, we're also building systems to make sure that you can always find the conversations you need), as well as adding new categories to expand the types of conversations that we support. These changes are likely to take place over the week or two following the upgrade, and may include archiving or merging some of the existing forum content. Don't worry, all the archived content will remain accessible—new posts will simply be sorted into the new categories. Thanks for your patience while we make these changes! We're excited about the upgrade and can't wait for you to see what we're working on.65Views1like0CommentsDeveloper Mode Issues Update
Hello everyone, Thank you all for your reports and your patience on this issue! In regards to developers being unable to enable Developer Mode in the Oculus app, a new update has been pushed to fix the issue. Please update your Oculus app to the latest version (as of the date of this post) and try enabling Developer Mode once more. Update 11/8: The fix pushed to the latest App Update does not seem to have fixed the issue for all developers. At this time we are re-opening the issue and will update this post as well as this forum thread with any relevant details. In the meantime, many of our awesome developers have shared that verifying using a Credit Card allowed the Developer Mode option to appear. Update 11/15: We have received reports that this issue has been fixed for most developers experiencing this issue. Please log out and log back into your Oculus app and try enabling Developer Mode once more. If you still experience the same issue, please reach out to our team at https://developer.oculus.com/support (click "Contact Us") and we'll dive deeper.31KViews8likes53Comments
