Is this site ready for Firefox 100?

Post by Baldape »

I've read that some sites are experiencing issues with Firefox 100 and Google Chrome 100.
Is this site prepared for FF 100 and GC 100?

right now that's the least of their problems, its been stated over an over again that things don't work on this board due to moving to HTTPS, only way to fix it i think an that's to update the Board to phpbb4 when released

i don't think a Browser UA string is gonna really bother Forum software.

should only cause issues to other websites like a News website, not a plain Forum it wont.

well Firefox 100 will soon be released around the first week of May 2022

edit - and for Win7 users, the upcoming Firefox 100 version requires the KB4474419 SHA2 update for Win7 SP1.

Considering that there are Nightly build users here using the forum fine, the Fx 100.0 Release should be fine.

As for Windows 7, it is known and not likely to affect affect that many Win7 users unless they did a fresh Win7 install or did not really do Windows updates.

Sumo even has an article about this https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/fi ... -windows-7 created three weeks ago. Mozilla also mentioned the need for KB4474419 update on Windows 7 in https://www.mozilla.org/firefox/100.0beta/releasenotes/
