vBulletin 4.2.3

[Mark.B]

4.2.3 is mainly php 5.5 compatibility changes, and also updates to Facebook Connect to make it work with Facebook's current platform.

It fails miserably. Publish to facebook doesn't work at all and registering doesn't pull in email address or avatar.

When will vb4 become compatible with php 5.6?

Best we can tell 4..2.3 works fine with PHP 5.6 as well.

Nice smooth upgrade from 4.22 to 4.23 yesterday. Thanks :-)

There are no known issues with php 5.6 and 4.2.3.

I was curious about that mark. cause when users try facebook connect upon registration it doesn't import their locaion, bio data, or birthday like it says.

has any attention been paid to this?

If they are in Jira, then they will likely be reviewed at some point, but atm, there is no further planned work on vB4.

[Guardian Hope]

The final release of 4.2.3 is now available.

What I'm curious about is whether there are any major template changes from 4.2.2 PL4 to 4.2.3 or are 4.2.2 PL4 Styles still working alright in 4.2.3?

No its not It shows me 4.22 PL4 as latest patch.

Edit: Never mind...its a full version. Sorry.

No major changes. A style designed for 4.2.2 will likely work with 4.2.3.

We are now running vB4.2.3 with PHP 5.6.10 with no issues

I only see 4.2.2 PL4 available to download. Any idea why?

I think that means you need a newer version of php. What version do you have?

[Paul M]

Sounds like you are running php 5.2 or older.

As the notes on the download area say ;

vBulletin 4.2.3 requires PHP 5.4.0 or greater, and MySQL 4.1.0 or greater, and cURL to be installed.

No, your VB4 licenses should have access. If you still can't access create a support ticket and specify which licenses you are having the problem with.

Quick question... I am due to upgrade my 4.2.2 forum to 4.2.3 next week...

I believe that 4.2.3 needs a later version of PHP, current specification is

PHP 5.3.28
MySql 5.5.42-cll

Do I need to update these before I upgrade to 4.2.3 or after?

What would you recommend I upgrade to?

Thanks
