Forum ported to PHP 8.x
vanderaj - September 11th, 2022 at 10:32 PM

Hi everyone,

Sorry for the downtime. I had to finally bite the bullet and fix the forum by upgrading it to PHP 8.x. The version of PHP supplied by Centos Stream (7.2.4) is insecure, so I had to upgrade to PHP 8.1. This finally broke the forum due to immense amounts of technical debt.

In the process, I think I've fixed a few outstanding bugs in the forum, such as the ability to create new forums. However, I've not been able to test every single feature of the forum - there are just too many. Please let me know of any features that don't work, and I will work on fixing them.

thanks
Andrew

I've logged the issue here:

OK, I just tried to PM barls to ask how to upload a screenshot and I cannot do a PM with or without an attachment as that raised an error as well.

Also I am sorry Andrew but I am not familiar with how github works either
