For PHP 7.0.7 need only PunBB 1.4.4!

ForkBB

Re: no longer able to edit

As Visman said, you need Punbb 1.4.4 for Php 7, and you need to make a little change in include/dblayer/ for punBB to use correctly Php7, take a look here : http://punbb.informer.com/forums/post/155990/#p155990

Re: no longer able to edit

Thank you

My Forum does not automaticly upgrade anymore, and the advise is to upgrade manualy. I downloaded the latest version 1.4.4 but cannot find how to use it as an upgrade...Can yoiu tell me how to do that without losing all my posts and members and all...??

Kind regards...Anton

Re: no longer able to edit

The time to make the upgrade to 1.4.4, it would be better to downgrade your php version, to prevent any bug.
Can you downgrade your php version with your web hosting ?
Try it, maybe this way, maybe you could edit post again, and make the upgrade more safely.
Once you made the upgrade to 1.4.4, you can upgrade to php7 and make the change in the file i've mentionned.
PunBB was made initially to support php 5.5 and php 5.6, so downgrade temporarily to php 5.3 or 5.4 would be enough for your PunBB 1.4.1 to work fine.
