14:15.07blast007macsforme: down
14:16.51blast007I'm working on upgrading to 3.2.0 since the version we had didn't seem to like PHP 7 which requires writing extensions or modding it old-skool
14:27.40blast007and I'm leaning towards going against their current recommendation of extensions because their extension system is confusing, complicated (here's their short list of events: https://wiki.phpbb.com/Event_List ), and limited (Seems like even with all those events, I'd still have to rewrite the generated HTML via regexes to do what I want)
14:28.37blast007also need to swap out the graphics again with the new theme
