Topic: Just Curious

I have downloaded the newest version of PunBB and tried a few mods!
The mods I downloaded are not compatible with the new version.

Since I am new to PunBB, which version shall I go with to get the majority
of the mods I want to work?
After someone suggest which version, can you then upgrade to the newest version
of PunBB or what?

I know it takes a long time to make a mod, but please understand this from a
"newbie" to PunBB and the mods!

Any suggestions will be greatly appreciative!

TIA

Re: Just Curious

This is just because a lot Mod Authors don't update their mods frequently. In most cases you can help yourself by editing the install_mod.php and adding the current version '1.2.15' to the versions array. For Example: 

$punbb_versions    = array('1.2.5', '1.2.15');

But first you should have a look in the (PunRes) forums to see if there are instructions on how to install the Mod on a newer version.

And never forget to install the latest PunBB version, because in most cases it's fixing some bugs...!
