Refuse to enable on phpBB older than 3.3.19, or below the extension's minimum PHP version, with a clear message instead of phpBB's generic error. Same check as adduser's ext.php.

phpBB 3.3.17 through 3.3.19 fixed a long list of security issues, so boards on older versions should update phpBB first.

  • ext.php: phpBB 3.3.19 and PHP version check
  • language/en/install_wiki.php: the error message
  • composer.json / README.md: phpBB minimum raised to 3.3.19

Claude tested it on a phpBB 3.3.19 board: smoke test (enable, disable, delete data, re-enable) passed, and with the minimum forced higher, the extension showed its own error message.


Investigated and written by Claude on behalf of William Jacoby (bonelifer).
