Well, it took several days following their instructions, and then I tried something else.

It's now running the new version, but I haven't had time to really check it out.

I don't think there were any new features that I would use. I mostly like to just stay current with bug and security fixes.

Hey, you've had the decorators in Drib. Like what you've done with the place.

No problems encountered so far! :)

Thank you, SuziQ!

The new style is not part of the version update. I just happened to change the style a week later.

There are a lot of styles available for PHPBB. You can look through the free ones here:

https://www.phpbb.com/customise/db/styles-2

This new style is called "latte." I also considered "nosebleed." The prior style was called "flat."

There's a setting where I can let you pick your own style on your profile, but that can be confusing.

The armadillo was one of eight entries in the logo contest from 2017.

viewtopic.php?f=2&t=771

The winner was the intertwined lizards, so I went with that for two+ years. Last week, I decided to try out another logo - the dillo, which had received zero votes - and I thought it would look better with another phpbb style, so that's what you see now.

php version

Post: # 2530Post drib »

All my domains (i.e. dribcritc and bigdogfoto and various subdomains) are now running PHP version 7.2.22!

DreamHost wrote:Running the latest versions of website apps atop the latest versions of PHP 7 is a sight to behold. The combination is both faster and far more secure than what exists on your account today. In fact, PHP 7.2 is up to 250% faster than PHP 5.6. No joke.

bd-foto.com, though is at version 7.3.7 because it's a rebel, Dottie, a loaner.

It looks like there is at least one incompatibility of the new version with the Latte style - note that the breadcrumb trail is not correctly showing at the top of the page.

I don't much like the default style, so what I'll do is wait to see if there is a fix, and if not, pick out a new style that was designed for version 3.3. It might not have an armadillo, though.

This new style is called Rock N Roll.

The breadcrumb trail works, but there could be other issues, so please let me know if you find any.

======

I didn't like the Rock N Roll icons, which were musical notes, so I replaced them with the original prosilver icons.

If you're traveling for MI6 (maybe 9IW down under), then take the tuxedo. And make sure you're packing some heat in case things get rough in Churra-Scary-Ia.
