Hi, PHP 7 compatibility; It will be provided with 3.8.10 stable version?

No.

As per the vb.com post ;

Those will be 3.8.11 Alpha releases.

3.8.11 Alpha 1

Merhaba vbulletin 3 x serisinde ne zaman mobil tema uyumu sağlanacak ? vbulletin 4 te oldugu gibi mobil uyumlu tema istiyoruz acıkcası?

Please post in English...that is the language used by this community. :)

When will ensure compliance of mobile themes Powered by 3 x serial? Powered by 4 t that we want a mobile-friendly theme as clearly?

Never.

That sort of development work is simply not going to happen for vB3 or vB4, there are 3rd party [custom] responsive styles available if you want them.

I've been told to set up a new server with the latest versions of php and MySQL and start trying this out. Thanks for all you do, Paul.

. Thanks for all you do, waleedaboyasmen

3.8.11 Beta 1 has been released today.

The final release of 3.8.11 will be next week.
This allows vB3 to run on PHP 7.0 & PHP 7.1

JFYI, I have PHP 7.2 installed on a test server, and changes in that will upset vB3.
I'm leaving IB, so I wont [officially] work on any 3.8.12, and I'm certain no one else will either.

I think I have 3.6.7, but now nothing works also where can I see my license?

The final version of 3.8.11 has been released today.

thank you for you great success work. you help us much more.

Do you know what changes in 7.2 break vb3? Not asking for you to write any code, just if you know what it revolves around.

I'm looking at https://github.com/php/php-src/blob/...0RC3/UPGRADING

Paul if u leave vb3 wont be supported anymore?

I have already left (six months ago).

AFAIK, No-one is supporting VB3 or VB4 other than for critical security issues.
I'm making my own 3.8.12 & 4.2.6 versions for php 7.2, there are a few issues.

Nice to know u are keeping the good work Paul.
Do you intend to share your own version or it will be private?

I havent decided yet, as I havent quite finished, there are a few bugs besides the actual 7.2 issues.

I don't think I'd be able to share it publicly, pretty sure IB would have kittens.
However, I suppose I could provide a private upgrade service to existing licence holders (for a small fee).

TBH, I havent really given it a lot of thought atm.

@Paul M

Well Paul I'm really sad that you left IB as well see that vB3 and vB4 won't be updated for PHP 7.2 support, I really don't know what to say... I've used vB since 2001 when I used vB Lite with the purple and orange designs back then. It took me over 16 years to build my personal vB site not to forget I had to pay for new vB 5 license when my £72 or $85 1 yr lease license expired 12 years ago. I hope you could offer private updates for vB4.

Is there still an option to get vb3 working with php7?..

vB 3.8.11 works with PHP 7.0.x and 7.1.x.

Yes. 3.8.11 is PHP7 ready :D

Did anyone test 3.8.11 with PHP 7.2?

It doesn't work with PHP 7.2. 7.1 is the last version for which it was updated to work.

If there is a version which works with 7.2 it is not the official release.

I am willing to pay for an upgrade to 3.8.12 (PHP 7.2) from a licensed 3.8.11.

PaulM dont come to this site anymore, you'll need to contact him another way.

Thanks!

I suppose that Paul can read as a guest.

It's not urgent, I will try to contact him on TAZ too in the next months. I have some mods /products to upgrade too.

I want a legal upgrade.
Budget: a good budget...

Anyone found a solution to make 3.8.11 work with 7.2? Just updated from 5.6 to 7.1, but I have only a few more monthw to move to 7.2

where can I download 3.8.11 Thank you

Hello,

i have a self made unofficial 3.8.12 version (not from Paul M) which runs on PHP 7.4 Alpha 2 but unfortunately no diffs for it. Unfortunately my time is very limited to create the diffs.

best regards

It's a good reason to follow you! :D

Hey Meister2017,

Thanks for the diff of vb4.2.5 !
Won't to mind to make the same kind of diff for vb3.8.11 ?

Cheers !

As I have already said, I have little time and no desire to work unpaid.

Cool.
and where, i can pay what for 3.8.12 diffs?

you can pay here with bitcoin:

Is there any real reason for going to 7.2 over 7.1?

My 3.8.11 works on 7.01 and nothing else. I've tried 5.5 etc.

Working at getting the bugs out of the hacks.

I suppose 4.2.5 is in my future.

EDIT: No, XenForo is NOW!

It's always good to use the latest PHP version for performance and security reasons. PHP 7.0.* already reached end of life and is no longer supported by PHP. PHP 7.1 will reach end of life on December 1st 2019. See https://www.php.net/supported-versions.php

Now even if you don't care much about end of life of PHP versions, your host might care and at some point remove those PHP versions.

I'm looking for a 3.8.8 beta 1 to 3.8.12 diff that supports PHP 7.4. Paid request by PayPal if someone can provide exactly this, with a custom 3.8.12 that works properly with PHP 7.4.
