Development Discussion Board

I say keep it simple. Limit the ad placements to a few normal positions (as mentioned in your orig proposal). Do not try to give tons of every option possible. That will only get you into trouble. You can always add more later, if reasonable. Don't "over-engineer" it and don't assume you have to ple...

I would like to see the extension manager gets its update so it is aware of extension branch versions (3.1x/3.2x) in this release.

It was looking nice and decent as per that time now its 2017

Oh? How should it look like in 2017?

It should look dystopian

Actually a 1 click update could probably run composer and update the vendor stuff the right way.

Out of interest/curiosity - do the stats from phpBB installs show the version of PHP that is used, and if not would it be an idea to add them (if that is possible)

Just go to the ACP, choose the Help support phpBB panel, and click Show details.

Oh, the answer is Yes.

This I would consider a good working solution, with not much runtime impact (only a check every 5 to 10 minutes, or on demand...) and yet a very important reliability improvement (at least in my view).

To me this is a bad idea. And for a very minor (almost non-) issue, IMO.

forget about this completely This will be a moot point once the Extension manager will be able to download extensions autmatically from our database. And this is a moot point since that is probably at least one, more likely two years out. -javiexin No, it already exists. It just hasn't been merged ...

I voted 7.1, but I meant 7.0

David is right. People should not delete active extension files from the filesystem, just as doing so to phpBB's core files would also result in unexpected results.
