1FF Now Operates on PHP 7.X - 70% Performance Improvement

[TractorBoys]

We have optimised 1FF for PHP 7.x and this evening it was installed.

Xenforo community widely reports up to a 70% performance improvement when compared with PHP 5.6.

Website funtionality should be totally unaffected but if anything appears out of place/buggy, let me know!

Cheers,
TB

Didn't understand any of the above but well done.

Has it broken the ability to upload images to posts? Just getting this link to open it in a new tab now.

Good spot; I believe we are missing a PHP extension, I'll get this fixed tonight.

I don't seem to be able to insert gifs, and haven't the last few days from a number of sources. Is that linked TB?

 

[TractorBoys]

Yeah, I'm having a look now chaps.

hi TB.....am I having a "senior moment"?
when i'm on my predicta sites it takes ages to scroll up and down with mouse or pad
and when I want to input words it will only let me do one letter at a time.....
this question I am typing now is causing no problems at all....?????

I've added additional PHP functionality. Can somebody please test as a user to see if this has resolved GIF issues.

updated for the modern game. (EDIT. adding photos now works)

Looking much better, site load speeds are much more efficient.

I use a tablet to access this site, but ever since this upgrade the keyboard runs like shit. Its taken 45 minutes just to type this. Only happens on here.

At last....someone with the same problem

 

[claret50]

Strange that, as I use either a tablet or a laptop and both are fine accessing the site.

 

[TractorBoys]

Haven't experienced these issues myself; however, I will raise the point with Xenforo developers and see if they can shed any light.

Tab A using Chrome. Dunno if that makes it the Samsung keyboard or google one. I hope you appreciate this reply, it took 3 hours and 17 minutes to type.

 

[SALTIRE]

Still having gif issues for me anyway.

 

[claret50]

Why do site supporters still have adverts on the screen when it says "browse 1FF completely Ad free"

 

[TractorBoys]

It's a new ad, permissions will just need editing. I'll handle it soon.

Cheers TB.

Small issue with the mobile version. If I click into a thread, it goes to the first unread post. As soon as I scroll down, it goes to the top of the page and I have to tap the go to first unread box. Not the end of the world but a tad annoying.

 

[JimJams]

Also had that.

(I started typing this reply straight after Meadows post!)
