I might be writing something stupid, but what if you don't know about deepseek? It can be a great help when updating your codebase. I'm not very familiar with PHP, but if things are really bad and no one more experienced is willing to take on the task, I'm willing to give it a try.

I guess I'm going to have to explore more anti-spam measures for the new forum as I've had more spam posts than regular posts, so far. Maybe the old VIP mod that I had before was better than we knew, that was the one that made people answer a question when they registered. I see that there is an extension that does something similar.

As for the PHP question, if anyone wants to help, the challenge is updating the following phpbb extension so that it is compatible with PHP 8.4 and phpbb 3.3.15:
https://github.com/orynider/pafiledb

While I haven't used Deekseek before, I made extensive use of Copilot to get the forum and the wiki back online, in fact there's no way I could have done it with it, and I will be using it to try and update pafiledb too.
