May I ask what phpBB version you have? I do know phpBB 3.3.12 can work with 8.3 as long as the database you are using is also compatible.Right, I guess I will be obliged to update my host to 8.3 soon, do you think I can do it without phpBB problem ?
phpBB 3.3.x has a few requirements which must be met before you are able to install and use it.
A webserver or web hosting account running on any major Operating System with support for PHP
A SQL database system, one of:
MySQL 4.1.3 or above (MySQLi required)
MariaDB 5.1 or above
PostgreSQL 8.3+
SQLite 3.6.15+
MS SQL Server 2000 or above (via ODBC or the native adapter)
Oracle
PHP 7.2.0+ up to and including PHP 8.3 with support for the database you intend to use.
The following PHP modules are required:
json
mbstring
XML support
getimagesize() function must be enabled.
Presence of the following modules within PHP will provide access to additional features, but they are not required:
zlib Compression support
Remote FTP support
GD Support
If your server or hosting account does not meet the requirements above then you will be unable to install phpBB 3.3.x.
