About to upgrade phpBB to the latest version at 19:30. Downtime is expected to be around 30 minutes in total at most.

NOTE: This update will disable the Tapatalk functionality, which has been deemed to be okay because currently no one uses it anyway.

The board is now also using PHP 7.3, which should result in improved performance.

I'll be updating the forum shortly to a new version. The announcement post is here:

It looks like it might fix some of our email gripes, so that would be useful.

Hamish,

I find that I can no longer edit my own posts, eg retrospectively update the list in the Stage and Lady Hanham Integration Topic. I've looked around but can't see a setting that should be changed.

I assume this arose with the last update. Do you have any ideas?

Just checked and I can still edit my own posts. What error do you get?
