As this forum is closing in a few days I just wanted to take this opportunity to thank you all for the help and guidance provided for my version of phpbb over the past 2 years.
Sadly I won't be upgrading. Upgrades come too fast, whilst the extensions and language pack support I selected with my original version, come too slow. This model meant I could not keep up to date with the releases and the gap has become too vast. Unfortunately a number of useful extension I have installed stopped the life cycle with 3.1.x.
I will continue hosting the board with my 3.1.x version but realise I can no longer ask for support.
I wish you all the best and again thank you for the help over the past few years

Best
Martyn
