ParlorBoss - Version 2.8.5
Release Date: August 20, 2024
Expand the sections below to learn more:
- SQL Server now automatically installs when you install ParlorBoss: When you install ParlorBoss, you no longer have to manually install SQL Server. The system now automatically installs SQL Server when you install a new version of ParlorBoss.
- You can now back up and restore your ParlorBoss settings: You can now back up and save the settings for your Tag List, Manage Tasks, Manage Items, and Options screens. Go to File > Settings to save you backup file, then restore your settings at any time.
- You can now enter another SQL instance for ParlorBoss: If you open ParlorBoss and there is no connection to an SQL server, you can now enter an SQL instance and create a new database directly on the machine.
- Resolved an issue that occurred if you started running ParlorBoss while DairyComp was closed. Previously, if you opened DairyComp after ParlorBoss already collected some data, the system would display all the collected data in a delayed and unreadable way.
- Corrected the ParlorBoss version number displayed in the About ParlorBoss screen.
- Resolved an issue where you could not scroll to the bottom of the ParlorBoss Log screen if the log was not expanded.

ParlorBoss - Version 2.8.4
Release Date: April 1, 2024
Expand the information below to learn more about the updates in this release:
- Improved the ParlorBoss auto-update process:
- ParlorBoss now displays a warning message if the system tries to download the latest version of ParlorBoss when there isn't enough space on your device (less than 1 GB).
- When ParlorBoss auto-updates, the system now checks if the update was successful. If the update was not successful, the system reverts back to an older version of ParlorBoss to ensure that service is uninterrupted.
- Reduced the amount of disk space used by ParlorBoss backups: Now, ParlorBoss backups only store data from the last 180 days to save disk space and better optimize ParlorBoss's performance.
