Its not going to be imminent. 2.3.8 confirmed here : https://xenforo.com/community/threads/crafted-post-search-query-can-skip-post-gettypepermissionconstraints.213723/post-1756831

But either methodology - either Xen big released or Discourse more rapid smaller releases will offer any more protection. Both need to be tested, however the rapid nature of the discourse means that if something is missed its patched within hours.

I am curious here. The post that you quoted was from Kier ( https://xenforo.com/community/threads/any-sort-of-roadmap-for-xenforo-2-3.201027/post-1637763 ) on July 17, 2023. Was 2.4 being considered at the point, or was a wholesale jump to 3 going to be the future? The point I am trying to...

Its kinda hard to miss my own point here I made the point that I feel a faster , smaller update will be a better way of doing things. The developers of the addons absolutely CAN predict the results of the interactions. This is why in the case of discourse you can run a beta build and see the...

I think you are missing the point here. The updates are minimal. If something major changes in behaviour then a deprecation notice is issues several builds before that element is changed. Therefore the upgrades are smaller in stature of the upgrade. This is one of my discourse forums. I havent...

Exactly why smaller updates are more suitable. I have been running discourse for quite some time now. Its had multiple framework updates and nothing has broken. Quite literally nothing. You get deprecation warnings. The addon developers fix it , the warning goes , and the site updates. Its...

Rather than big chunked updates would there be any merit to more rapid smaller updates? Discourse does this and it works well. Example , minor release to update tiptop, month after minor release to update something else and repeat. This could help the lack of updates, then a whole rewrite...

At present Xenforo releases a new major , or minor version with a multitude of features in an almost single hit. For example when V2.0 was released we had emoji support ,retina support, widgets, alerts in favicons plus lots more 2.3 was released and we had a new raft of updates such as image...

I would get onto 2.3 and then pause. You can do an offline test of the 2.4 upgrade to validate. I think there will be some changes that break things like themes.

Alex. Try allhost.io I used them for VPS and shared platform. Uk based and fast.

Who do we send claims to for a new left mouse button?

Do you have access to SSH? Use the command line instead if you have. If not I have had some success with BigDump ; https://www.ozerov.de/bigdump/

I have worked with @forumSolution on a piece of work to provide my forum https://turborenault.co.uk with a car register. I have found @forumSolution to be a pleasant person to work with and fulfil my requirements. We had a slight misunderstanding about a design but it was never too much...

With some judicious use of AI I did a SQL Query to rewrite the number with the correct URL. What you need to do is extract two columns from a table called gallery_id_map in phpBB Gallery. Add these two a newly created table in your Xenforo table. Then the following script needs to be run...

This is what I have worked out so far. The shortcode in the phpBB gallery is linked to a table phpbb_gallery_images The image ID is a sequentially incremental number and reveals the image name in the imagefilename. Now all I have to do is rewrite the posts that have numbers to the correct...
