I think compatibility with PHP 8.0 is our new task.

Eventually for an update to MySQL 8 too.

I would shy away from MySQL and move to MariaDB.

It is not going to happen, is it?

While I can not and do not speak for Dave, I do know he has been extremely busy as of late.

This would be awesome Dave !
Tell us how we should proceed, vB 3.8.11 on php 7.0 here

4.2.5 & 3.8.11 should be able to run on PHP 7.1 versions with little to no issues. Your problem is plugins and modifications may or may not support this version of PHP and beyond. They might limp along, if you disable error reporting. YMMV

It is the jump to PHP 7.2 and beyond where the issues start.

I'm on Debian9 here (oldstable), so if I jump to Debian10, it will be PHP 7.3
So yes, I would like a diff from Dave to make my venerable vb3 to be compatible with this release of PHP, it would be awesome

I will be able to give my diffs PHP 7.2+ but not before 2021. I am still busy customizing my responsive version and I also need to update the custom work on vB5 done by Sultantheme.

If I remember correctly I think Germany .org site had posted the diffs.

OK

For the record (the PM), I'm customizing this responsive theme: https://www.sultantheme.com/forum/index.php?&styleid=10

For the record, my vBulletin 3.8.11 + many products/mod are running fine on PHP 7.4.11.

My host upgraded PHP to 7.4.x yesterday.

The latest version Vb 5.6.4 is running fine too.

I bought that theme a couple years ago, works pretty well. How are you customizing it?

[lange]

- Two columns on all pages except in the postbit
- Each page has its own content
- Many products/plugins
- Audio messages (PM, login/logout message ...)
- a lot of conditionals

Hi Lange,
We are now in 2021
Do you think you will be able to provide the diff for PHP 7.2+ support ?

Thanks !

[lange]

Unfortunately, I don't have time for that right now. I haven't finished working on this version yet, I have an issue with the promotion cron job. So I will be busy on vB5 for the next few weeks.
