      I am using PPPoE, UPnP, and I have shaper rules in place and they all work fine for me.

      Admittedly I have not tried to do a fresh run through the shaper wizard, however, but if you have existing rules it should be fine.

        Whoops, meant to add:

        All of the pfSense devs and support staff (and other employees) are running 2.3 at home now. Beta is not far away (might have even been this week if it wasn't a holiday)

          The new UI is looking great!

          Ant idea how to change to the dark theme to check it out? Call me stupid but I can't find a way to do it in the UI unless that's not the way to do it.

            Same way as themes on 2.2.x and before:  System > General :-)

                  ok thanks guy, trying it right now, i will be simply restoring the config from 2.2.5 as of now so i believe things might only break if i edit anything in 2.3 which would be mostly due to the GUI.

                      No, that is a completely different issue. That function is only defined in /usr/local/www/vpn_openvpn_server.php, completely missing from the client page.

                        found the first issue, i had openvpn tunnels,

                        Should be fixed by some function consolidation into the include file:
                        https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/pull/2122
                        and Renato has merged it already:
                        https://github.com/pfsense/pfsense/commit/f4eec2507cb912290cbf156a49d790139e08f13d

                        As the Greek philosopher Isosceles used to say, "There are 3 sides to every triangle."

                            one more issue found, like in my case i dont use RRD graphs so have it turned off, now if u goto system - advanced - Miscellaneous then below it shows periodic RRD backup having a value of 0 but if u save anything on the page it says that field cant have a value of 0, needs to be more than 1, on older 2.2.5 systems it show it as disabled which is missing in 2.3.

                            same with dhcp lease backup, no disabled option

                                  You would be best to post these issues separately - it will get mixed up in 1 thread.
                                  On my system those periodic backup fields are empty. But it was upgraded many weeks ago.
                                  Maybe you can just rub out the "0" and save.
                                  But if the "0" is coming across wrongly in upgrades (probably should upgrade to "") then someone should fix that.

                                    the issue with upgrading was due to the other slice being 2.2.5 so that i managed to get over it, just needed to upgrade from console once which cloned the other slice also to 2.3 and that field thing with 0 i guess u just need to clear it and hit apply which worked, thanks phil
