Exactly my thoughts.

My site has a lot of content on a VaultWiki installation. I'm not following them to Xenforo, but If I get vBulletin running on PHP 7.3 someday Ill stay.

After that? Who knows?

I have more mods that working with vB4, if I upgrade to vB5 they will not work.

My vb 4.2.5 works fine with PHP 7.4 so far.

My vb 4.2.5 works fine with PHP 7.4 so far.

VB5 is what I would say as being unobtainable for my site due to its nature and level of customization would be cost prohibitive to attempt a migration.

I have the "unofficial" 4.2.6 and have yet to install it as the source it comes from is questionable to where I question if it has any external calls that might be implanted and compromise the security of the system.

I will make the changes outlined in the diff as they are from a much more reliable source in MHO.

Are there any templates wth in VB 4.2.5 that would also require "touching"?

[stangger5]

I dont remember making any template edits.

I don't like it.

Interesting to read your comments.

Sincerely Yours.

IMO because vB 5 bites.

I don’t like the way it looks. I prefer the traditional look of vb forums specifically vb3 and 4. VB5 looks too much like Xenforo which I don’t like.
