Changed Files Package 3.0.0 to 3.0.1Changed Files PackageThis update package contains only those files changed from previous versions of phpBB3.
To update with this package, just upload the install/ folder with it's content to your phpBB3 installation root, then need to upload all files within the 3-0-0_to_3-0-1_modified_files/ folder to where phpBB3 is installed.
And browse yourdomain.com/phpBB3/install/database_update.php to end the update procedure.
Translations Update :This update contain the updated English and French language files.
Please note for update : The update will require some additional set up and .htaccess update.
Your forum URLs will stay exactly the same, but there are new options to URL rewrite the profiles and User Messages search pages.
User Messages search pages will change :
We decided to go for a better url structure and to as well hanlde the sr (showresults, can be topics or posts in search results) option.
It's no big deal, but if you update, you'll need to keep the previous rewriterule you had in your .htaccess for user messages pages.
To do so, make a copy of your current .htaccess, generate a new one once you've updated, and then grab the rewriterule you had in your old .htaccess after :
- Code: Select all
# USER MESSAGES
(note, the comment line is longer)
and copy it after :
- Code: Select all
# HERE IS A GOOD PLACE TO ADD OTHER PHPBB RELATED REWRITERULES
in your new .htaccess and the zero duplicate will do the rest 
Before you do so, you can change the way search user pages are rewrtten if you wish, if you as well change the profile URLs, then you'll need to keep the old profile rewriterule the same way in your new .htaccess.
If you encounter some difficulties to update the phpbb_seo_class.php file, for example if you modded it, you will just have to use the new file and edit it to re enter your previous customisations (static part & delimiters).
Once you will have updated, you will have to refresh your theme's cache as well as phpBB's cache (ACP => STYLE, Themes => Refresh).
