I've updated it now. We are waiting for all blocker bugs to be fixed, then we will be releasing 3.1-a1. http://tracker.phpbb.com/issues/?jql=pr ... key%20DESC

Hi, I want to make a test installation to try out the current dev version of 3.1.
From where can I download it?

Hi, is there any up to date documentation (or examples) on hooks for 3.1?
The docs in the 3.1-dev link posted above are the same as in the 3.0.11.

Hooks have been renamed to Events in 3.1 and are implemented differently. The old 3.0-style Hooks are being retained for backwards compatibility, but for Extensions created for 3.1, Events should be used. Documentation on Events can be found on our wiki. It is currently not complete and will probably be updated as 3.1 gets closer to being released. If you have any specific questions on how to use or implement events in your extension, you may ask in #phpbb-dev (irc: webchat.freenode.net). When 3.1-Alpha1 is released, we plan to create new Extensions in Development and Extension Authors Discussion (or similar) forums on the phpBB.com Community Board so that people can ask questions and share information on creating extensions.

How to test a particular feature in 3.1:

1. Go to the list of RFCs in this topic, pick a feature you want to test. "Patch in progress" features are incomplete, and the following instructions apply to them. To test "Merged" features, download the current 3.1 snapshot as described in the post directly above.

2. Follow the link to the RFC topic.

3. Determine the location of the latest patch. This is done by scanning posts backwards from the most recent post looking for things like "work in progress is: <github url>". In case of timezone topic this is the post.

Since this scanning can be tedious I will be gradually updating the first posts of RFCs with the current patch links, and I have done so for the timezone RFC. However for the time being you might have to look through a few posts to determine what code should be tested.

4. Follow the link to current patch on github.

5. Click on "Source" link in top left corner. It should be already highlighted, click it again.

6. You should now see "Downloads" link on top right where "develop <-> feature/new-tz-handling" was previously. Click there.

7. Under "Download source", download the tree as either a zip file or a tar.gz file depending on your operating system. Make note of "branch: feature/new-tz-handling" - this should match the RFC you are trying to test.

8. Use the downloaded package to perform a clean install or an update of an existing board.

9. Test and post results in the RFC topic.
Hi Oleg, I want to try this one out. Is this still applicable today? Or are there any new guides I can follow through? Thanks! I am a newbie :P
