phpBB 3.3.10 Release

Guest Latest phpBB.com

Greetings everyone,

We are pleased to announce the release of phpBB 3.3.10 “The Way of Bertie”. This version is a maintenance release of the 3.3.x branch which improves support for PHP 8.2, and resolves various issues reported in previous versions.

Previous versions of phpBB started showing a “broken image” icon next to the browser’s fallback emoji due to the service of the Emoji Content Delivery Network (CDN) being shut down. In order to resolve this, the emoji CDN has been replaced alongside other fixes which include improved handling of errors while using the Spamhaus blocklist, and proper handling of emojis when adding feedback in the Moderator Control Panel (MCP).

In addition to this, we have improved support for the use of reCAPTCHA for countries where the main domain might not be accessible, and the explanation of the ACP setting for allowing the “usage of third party content delivery networks” has been improved.

Further hardening has been added to the cron redirect to prevent exceptions from being left unhandled.

Thanks to recent changes to the phpBB repository on GitHub, contributing to phpBB has become easier than ever with the support of GitHub Codespaces. Check out our blog post on how to use GitHub Codespaces with phpBB or find out more on GitHub.

The full list of changes is available in the changelog file within the docs folder contained in the release package. You can find the key highlights of this release below and a list of all issues fixed on our tracker at https://tracker.phpbb.com/issues/?filter=16195

The packages can be downloaded from our downloads page.
