Yes, I still use 6.9 because it would take more time than I have to go to 7.6. And, there really are no additions after 6.9 that I need.

Hey Raven,

I'm also looking for the most stable secure version and I was told 7.5 or even 7.4 would be better.

I tried your 7.6 patched and when I seleceted the forums module I got an error. I forget what it was exactly. N E wayz....

I'm definately going to try 7.5 and see, unless anyone has any reasonable reason to believe it's unstable or insecure.

I suppose the best way is, if at first you don't suceed, downgrade, downgrade again.

To err is human, to blame your computer is more human. It's darn right natural

Would be nice to know what the error was Smile

The error I get is access denied.
I changed my config file to another name... and the link it tries to open ends in
Myconfigfile.php?op=forums

I went into the module and found the correct file to play around with the admin
I'm not too interested in fixing it at the moment, I have a more pressing issue to deal with. besides that error, it seems to be working, but I got a new problem that's baffling me....

I created a new installation in another directory and pointed another domain to it. I tried using the same database and I tried creating a new database but I can't seem to get it working.

When I go to the new index or admin file, I just get a blank page.
I was fooling around with Maximus and encountered this problem after the install so I deleted my .htaccess file. I read somewhere that it could be caused by the .htaccess.

NEwayz.... I now can't seem to install any version without ending up with a blank page. I tried removing all the directories and recreating them from scratch but no luck. Same result. I tried your version of 7.6 with the v3 patch and still had no luck getting it running.
Amazingly my original version above is still running with no additional problems.
I can't understand why it doesn't work for me.

If I remember correctly, I got the original version from phpnuke.org and I added the V3 patch myself. It seems your bundled version doesn't work for me.

If I could save a day in a bottle, I'd be rich!

I have a 7.5 site installed and running for almost a year (multiple upgrades, started at 7.2). I have been holding off on the next upgrade round (wanting to avoid 7.6) and since my last look I see that 7.7 and 7.8 are now both available. Should I upgrade to 7.7/7.8 or just apply the 3.0 fixes to my existing 7.5?

My desire for upgrading is as follows:
performance
security
possibly some new features
but I really don't want to have to completely redo my theme and I have made a number of blocks which I want to still function.

Comments/suggestions?

Thank you!

eak - stick to your 7.5 installation. Just ensure you have the latest patches from Chat and Sentinel installed.
As far as I am concerned, there is nothing in 7.7 or 7.8 that is a *must have* feature.
If you must have a wysiwyg editor, try SPAW from keodetech or the FCKEditor - both are add-ons and probably far more secure than FB's effort.

If you need an advertising / banners feature - I gather they do not even work! Try phpAdsNews which although is a big install it has every feature you could possibly want for advertising.
