We_universal is a prosilver-based style, so is compatible with most phpBB extensions without modification. There are however ways that an extension may not be compatible, because it makes assumptions about page structure or page layout which are not quite the same as the assumption made by we_universal. Often a small tweak to the extension's styling will fix things, but sometimes it becomes very complicated.

I want to create a list of phpBB extensions that are compatible (or not) with the we_universal style.
I will update this post with those that are compatible where applicable the latest tested version of the extension is given);

List of extension not compatible, or requiring modification of files - This list will be populated when I am notified of extensions with issues.

Board3 Portal (see: patch for phpBB v3.1)
Cosmos Banner v3.2.0 (can be made compatible with some work on the extension style files)
Precise-similar-topic v1.5.2 is compatible if the we_universal directory is deleted from the extension styles directory (!) see: https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styl ... pic/210131
Site logo (3.2) v2.1.0-rc6 extension. However, fixing that would only require a simple custom edit

If anyone wants to know, We_universal 2.5.9 also works with these extensions, on 3.2.8:

Board Announcements 1.1.0
Button menu 1.0.0*
External Links Open in New Window 1.0.6
Hide Bots 1.0.2
Lightbox 2.0.1
News Scroll 1.0.1
Password Strength 1.2.2
Posting Buttons 1.0.1
Pretty Topic 1.0.0
Quick Style 1.3.5
Quoted Images as Thumbnails 1.0.1

*Yes, I know this one is listed as "in development", but it appears to function without errors. Note that if you are running multiple styles the Button Menu extension is limited to one colour only, set in admin, so may not match all your styles. It is also not responsive by default.

We_universal does not work with the Site logo (3.2) v2.1.0-rc6 extension. However, fixing that would only require a simple custom edit (which I haven't got around to yet, but will post code for when I do).

Can you clarify what you are trying to communicate?
What is the purpose of the .zip file you have linked?

phpBB 3.3.0, we_universal 2.6.4. works with these extensions:

calendar 1.0.4 phpbb 3.3.4

As of now, incompatible extensions:

Dark Mode - It does work but after changing mode the switch button does not refresh to the alternate state until you refresh the page.
Large Font - It only enlarges the 'heading' fonts and not the ones used for the majority of the text used in the style.

Is there any chance these issues can be fixed?

I will take a look for the next update, but can't promise anything.
