Development Discussion Board

I've run a development community for an open source project since 2004. We've primarily communicated on our phpBB forums, but also had an IRC channel that wasn't as frequently used. About a year ago we moved to Discord and the improvement in community engagement was absolutely incredible. What kind...

Error says clearly that file required to update is missing. It is obvious since you didn't use update package but full package. BUT on the other hand phpBB shouldn't offer "DB & files" update with full package...

A quick test on my local 3.2.x install shows that it takes between 200-300 files and 1-6 queries to get past session_begin() , the smaller number being for a hot cache. I don't think the exact number of queries really matters, it's more about having to create a connection. It takes about ~60ms to g...

I can imagine there are users who use this. I have heard of boards that are kind of a game which you solve by reading hints in the topics which reveal passwords to new forums where you can find more hints. But yeah, definitely an extension (maybe official one since we don't want to discontinue a fea...

AmigoJack, it is not that easy. Many developers are now occupied with major rewrites of some parts of the code. Small bugs have less priority now.

hanakin, could you provide us with a concrete example how vue could be used? I have worked with the library on one project and while it like it extremely, I simply can't imagine how it would work without being used as primary templating engine. The output of vue is always a JS code that attaches to ...

Just like every other site - either hide the content or put it above each other. Now seriously, probably something like Messenger or even current PM solution.

We definitely are not going to add more functionality. But if you want it, why don't create new ticket in the tracker ideas page on .com?

...as Admin like to be able to "file" certain PMs for ease of future reference - things like reported PMs, long running discussions with certain members (usually troublemakers), Moderator discussions, PMs with useful information in them. On phpbb.com I like to file PMs relating to my extensions sep...
