Is Vb 3.8.8 compatible with MySQL 5.7?

[holwebs]

My web host has informed me that our server is being upgraded next week from MySQL 5.6 to 5.7 Will this be compatible with my forum running on v3.8.8?

Thank you.

Thanks Mark. You've answered the question! Yes I was thinking about DBSEO but wondered if upgrading to to V4 might negate that. Oh well, back to Plan A.

Thank you Mark. Re vbseo, I was wondering whether vb4 now offered some of the vbseo functionality itself so that I could uninstall vbseo before upgrading? My biggest issue are the URLs. I thought that...

Apologies if this is not the right place to post. Before I even attempt an upgrade of my forum currently on 3.8.8 to v4, where can I find out what the differences are between v3 & the latest v4 and...

I've received the email too & am looking at alternatives to vbseo. Meanwhile has anyone implemented this change. What does it do & what may stop working.

Thanks Mark. My host is about to upgrade to php 5.4 (around 20th Aug) but I'm about to go away so I'm intending to set the server to stay as PHP 5.3 for the moment. Then I'll investigate vB 3.8.8 as I'm...

I am trying to add some Events to our calendar for next year but the drop-down only lists the years 2008 - 2011. What do I need to do to add 2012 to the list. Surely it should automatically include future...

Thank you for that. Having now looked at the System Requirements for VB, I am wondering whether I NEED to upgrade to VB4. Our server is currently running PHP 5.2.17 and will be upgraded to PHP 5.3. Is...

Hi,

H have what I think is a fairly small forum (around 3000 members - around 250 active (a quiet time of year), 64,000 posts) still running v3.7.2 with a few mods including vbSEO & some...

Am afraid I cannot reproduce this but if it happens again I will try. I've looked at the bug reported above & I don't think this is what happened in my case as I think I 'deleted' a moderated thread...

Hi,

this issue came to light after installing a mod but was not caused by the mod (now unstalled) & someone else has reported the same on vbulletin.org.

If I look for threads...

One more question. Where do I find the text for the various emails that are sent by the system e.g. on registering etc. so that I can advise users that they will be moderated.

Is this a...

Brilliant - thank you. I suppose I should create another user group called 'suspicious users' for those that are a pain in the a***
