Versie 3.1.10 van phpBB is uitgebracht. Met dit programma is het mogelijk om een webforum te maken. PhpBB wordt onder de gpl-licentie beschikbaar gesteld en maakt gebruik van php en een databaseprogramma om berichten op te slaan. Naast MySQL worden ook PostgreSQL, Oracle Database, Microsoft SQL Server en SQLite als databasesoftware ondersteund. Versie 3.1 bevat een groot aantal veranderingen voor zowel gebruikers en admins als ontwikkelaars. De belangrijkste veranderingen die in deze update zijn aangebracht zijn hieronder op een rijtje gezet:
New FeaturesNotable Changes
- Check phpBB version constant against config version - Display a warning in the ACP if the version constant (files) does not match the phpbb_config version
- Support extensions in UI tests - UI tests now also support installing extensions and testing their behavior
Notable Bug Fixes
- Improved migrator - The migrator will now properly prevent timeouts and infinite loops. It will no longer unexpectedly try to revert update_data() implementations using "if"
- Dropped support for MySQL versions improperly implementing FULLTEXT support - Some MySQL versions used improper implementations of FULLTEXT support. Versions with correct support are now required.
- Users removed from newly registered group when limit set to 0 posts - Users will now be able to exit the newly registered users group when the limit is set to according to the setting's definition in the ACP.
- Further hardened checking links and form submissions - Added link hashes and form keys to all forms in the ACP that were still relying on global ACP form protections.
- Prevent MySQL error when looking at your posts - Wrong column was selected in certain cases.
- Q&A CAPTCHA no longer logs error when solved - A change in 3.1.9 caused the CAPTCHA to log an error even though it was solved.
- Min/max form values no longer preventing update of avatar settings - The newly introduced form validation on the html side will no longer report invalid min/max settings when updating avatar settings.
- Fixed fatal error when upgrading from 3.0.x - Fixed error when upgrading from version with softdelete MOD installed.
- Limit prunes per cron for large forums - Prunes on large forums were not limited. This could cause the prune query to fail at an unspecified point in time and leave topics unpruned.
- Rollback transactions in notifications manager - Fixed issues with not rolled back transactions when using non-existent notification types
