Invision Community 4: SEO, prepare for v5 and dormant account notifications Matt November 11, 2024Nov 11
Posted December 7, 20231 yr We have not been able to upgrade our forum for a long time due to lack of time. We currently have this option and have renewed the license. However, it is not possible for us to upgrade directly to the latest version because the latest version only supports PHP 8. I don't know where to start now. Is there an IPB version available that supports PHP 7.4 and PHP 8, so that we can upgrade to the latest version?
December 7, 20231 yr What you would do here is a manual upgrade. So you would update your PHP version to PHP 8, which of course would break the site. Upload a fresh set of files from your client area, and run the upgrader from /admin/upgrade
