Is there anything in the portal or the portalview that is going to break again if I upgrade to the new phpbb 1.7?

From now on I ask first, before I break stuff :)

Thanks my friend

I think you probably mean phpBB 3.0.7. :)

Anyhow, I'm currently not aware of any problems with phpBB 3.0.7.

Updated my forum from phpbb3 v. 3.0.6 to 3.0.7, without any problems. Portal v1.0.5, portalview v1.0.0RC3 and all my mods still works.

You dont tell what version you upgrade from, but after the upgrade you need to edit the files with the needed mod codes, or reinstall your mods if you use Auto Mod

It would also be great to know how you updated? Did you use the automatic updater?

No, you only need to edit the "include/constants.php

The portal need

Code: Select all

define('PORTAL_CONFIG_TABLE',		$table_prefix . 'portal_config');
to work

You add it so it be like

Code: Select all

// Additional tables
define('PORTAL_CONFIG_TABLE',		$table_prefix . 'portal_config');
PS. Maybe your also need to add code so your other mods will work, but for that you need to tjeck the install.xml for the mods you need.
