I thought that self closing tags were depreciated in HTML5 and were only allowed for older browsers.


That's what i also thought but it seems code validation as taken a turn check any website they all now fail even this one :lol:

It seems the times have moved on but phpbb has stood still joomla ...

It's not a bug html has changed the way it works if you took the time to click the link in the first post or read the other link i posted your find it changed over night all sites now fail.

It's been reported here https://stackoverflow.com/questions/738 ... -documents

Phpbb can no longer pass html validation see here https://validator.w3.org/nu/?showsource=yes&doc=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.phpbb.com%2Fcommunity%2F
<meta charset="UTF-8" />

is now

<meta charset="UTF-8" >

Phpbb is auto inserting the "/" some where in its code will this be removed at all ?

limited and obsolete ?? Not obsolete and far from limited it can style via css also html changes and php changes with out touching a single core file wink

Old news there is an ext that does just this using prosilver no edits are made to any core file.

Ok so for icons i guess thats sorted live with it :lol: how about the view more smilies is there an sql that can be run to fix the issue ?


It's a syntax error in SQL query so not MySQL 8 specific. That's a blocker for 3.3.1 release I guess.
