C Can Active member Licensed customer Nov 22, 2025 #1 Which MariaDB version are you using with XenForo? I’m considering using MariaDB 11.4 or 11.8. Would I run into any compatibility or performance issues with XenForo on these versions? Any advice or real-world experience would be appreciated.

JoshA Member Licensed customer Nov 22, 2025 #2 Both 11.4 and 11.8 should be fine, but I’d probably pick 11.4 just for the stability/LTS side of things. Upvote 0 Downvote

duderuud Well-known member Licensed customer May 24, 2026 #7 I would pick 11.4 because it is supported the longest. I use 11.4 because of that reason and it works fine. Upvote 0 Downvote
