Major Forum Software Update
Posted: 27 Jul 2017, 06:35
Hi all,
there's a new major update to the phpBB (the forum software used here), which I think I will try to install tomorrow morning (friday 28.7.). It might cause a bit longer down time for the forums, as in a major update everything can go wrong, but hopefully it will be just a simple update.
What new amazing features will the new phpBB 3.2 have?
- It's easier to update for admins (yay, no more FTP manual updates)
- There's a support for full emoji keyboard (I think it's the website https://emoji.codes/ ), because you know, who doesn't want that?
It should also include new ways to block spam and an improved system for notifications and overall faster operation.
Just in case I'll run a full a full backup, but just know that if the server is down full day, something probably went wrong.
