Where is Recent Topics v2.2.15?

Post by Bert46 »

The release page description for the Recent Topics extension says there's a v2.2.15 that's compatible with phpbb3 v3.3, but there's no download for it. Where is it?

Did you look at the whole page you linked to?

Recent Topics 2.2.15 Denied

If you really want to use that version, on the same page there's a link to github and also directly to the denied version.
However you should realise there's no support for that version.
Spelling is freeware, which means you can use it for free.
On the other hand, it is not open source, which means you cannot change it or publish it in a modified form.

The OP is not a junior validator so they won’t be able to see any unreleased versions of extensions.

True: forgot about that

Found another version.

Thank you for explaining, danieltj. No I don't see any info about 2.2.15 at all even if I CTRL+F search that page. The word "denied" is not on that page for me either.

Does it give a reason why posting it here was declined (that I don't see)?

The denied version that warmweer mentioned refers to an unreleased version that is not publicly available and only viewable by team members and junior validators. I can't provide any specific details about versions that are not public, but it's nothing to worry about.

The version linked to on GitHub by ssl might work for you though. Obviously the standard advisory applies of be careful using non-validated extensions from third party sources of course.

Thank you again. Yes, being careful is why I asked. I backed everything up and tried the linked version. It works and I haven't noticed it causing any issues (yet...I haven't advertised my site anywhere yet so it's only me on it at the moment).

Version 2.2.15 is not incompatible with phpBB 3.3 but with PHP 8, the version published on GitHub supports PHP 8

The requirements in the github say otherwise:

Code: Select all

Requirements:
phpBB 3.3.5 - 3.3.x

...and you can find the discussion topic and changelog here https://www.phpbb.de/community/viewtopic.php?t=246557
My 2 cents: Whether an extension is in the CDB says nothing about its quality. It is more important to read the support topics for it. Better to avoid authors who do not answer support questions themselves, who do not update their stuff, and who do not fix bugs for years.
