XF 2.2 How to install dated addons

[biafraland]

Hello,

Is it possible to install severely dated addons on XF 2.2? Like installing addons that were created for 1.X on newer forum installations. I'll like to install this addon to my forum, even if it means taking a manual route.

Back in SMF, there's a feature called simulation - where you can temporarily simulate an older version of SMF software until the mod installation is completed. I don't know if there's such a feature or any other way to add a XenForo 1.x addon to 2.2.

Update: While I'll still like to find out if it's possible to install severely dated addons on newer forum installs, the addon I used as an example seems to have a Xenforo 2.2 variant.

No.

The code base is completely different.

Any add-ons you install will need to be compatible with the version of XF you are running.
