If it ain't broke, no need to fix it, or in this case no need to start anew.

Whilst it may not be "broke" some parts of phpBB are not in the best of health and long term they some tlc

It might be helpful but it is also dangerous in that you could end up deleting something that you did not want to delete. Deletion, of anything, should be explicit and not implicit.

A better solution is to increase the number of items displayed on a page.

Just noticed that 3.3 now has a tables.yml by default - that makes all my extensions compatible (I have been injecting tables for a while now) - not sure why some tables had to be renamed though!!

Perhaps telling us which extension it is might help.

Also if you have a problem with an extension (which you has with 3.2.8) then the correct place to deal with it is in the support topic for the extension.

I would suggest adding all of them to the /account/ route.

Not sure what that actually is but to me "account" is too generic - perhaps "user_account" or "user_tools" would be more intuitive.

Personally I cannot see a problem with any naming convention - just as long as it is adhered to and consistent. But should this discussion not be more wide ranging? phpBB has, since its inception, insisted on snake_case naming convention for functions/variables. Today snake_case is not widely used a...

I know I am probably jumping the gun a bit here but are there any plans on how extensions will be migrated?
