No reply in this thread since 30mn? So... Thank you :D

Do a lot of people still use vB 2? I know of some large sites that do, but overall, isn't vB 2 just about out of official support?

[Brad.loo]

Good to see the 2.3.x line still getting updates. Thanks for the release. :)

[0ptima]

How much longer will VB2 be supported?

[Quillz]

I'd guess once vB 4.0 comes out.

I think there will be more focused on the vB3 versions. However, I tried to upgrade to the 2.3.8 version, except the only thing it doesn't work is that whenever I upload the functions.php, it just gives me a blank page whenever I visit the index page. I already installed every hack I could think of that I did with the 2.3.7 version, but it still gives me an error. Is there any way someone could post the difference between the 2.3.7 and the 2.3.8 version of the functions.php file?

Just to confirm...

I am running 2.37.... To patch it I just have to upload the two files (global.php and search.php) and overwrite the existing ones in the 2.37 installation and the patch will be complete?

Yes :)

[tribedude]

Yes :)

Well I did that and the version # at the bottom of my pages is still 2.37....

This is normal. The patch files patch only security holes, and don't upgrade the vBulletin version.

For upgrade the vBulletin version, you must to download the entire package in the Member's Area :)

Please answer the question this person is asking above. I consider that to be quite rude that you decided to ignore him.

Isn't there anyone who has an answer to my question?
