Hello everyone,
We are pleased to announce the release of phpBB "Run bugs, run! Bertie is coming!" 3.0.7. This new version is a maintenance release fixing a number of a bugs as well as improving on usability and performance. We have entirely overhauled the Feed feature, fixing a lot of bugs and odd behaviours. Some problems with the automated updater have been solved, so if you are still on 3.0.5 this update should work a lot better for you.
We urge you to update your installation as soon as possible. The bugs fixed in phpBB 3.0.7 ensure the smooth operation of your board. Our support team will only support phpBB 3.0.7, updates to phpBB 3.0.7 and conversions to phpBB 3.0.7. Submissions to our trackers for older versions will not be accepted, please make sure you update before you submit a bug report.
If you use a language pack other than the default "English [GB]", you should check our downloads section, an update may already be available.
For a complete list of changes with attributed ticket numbers, please consult our comprehensive changelog (http://www.phpbb.com/support/documents.php?mode=changelog&version=3#v306). Below I have extracted the most important changes in phpBB 3.0.7.
