I test my own forum i have two databases to my own purposes and works fine 1.6.12, bu if you want to use 1.7 (1.8 alpha) you can told to your plugins if are compatibe or not inside the plugin file on inc/plugins dir you have some line of compatibillity, you have to change that value to test your plugins. Only have to add some like:
17* instead 16* or 14*. For me it's more easy to put for every version and testing by myself every plugin that i need x. You can only use * and this can be reflected on your admin CP when you enter inside plugins area.
That's all, you have to test and remember the current library for 1.8 is jquery, not more json.
Cheers.

Additionally, plugins which receive XML data from xmlhttp.php will stop working as xmlhttp.php now serves JSON instead.

thanks for this information.
Since I was unaware of this.
Really JSON is better...

1. Deactivate all plugins.
2. Download the feature branch: https://github.com/mybb/mybb/archive/feature.zip
3. Overwrite your local files with the files from the ZIP above.
4. Run the upgrade script (/install/).
5. Assuming you've gotten this far, ACP > Templates & Style > Templates > Find Updated Templates
6. Activate your plugins one by one to make sure they still work. Some won't and will need upgrading.
That's off the top of my head. And of course, even if this does work do not try to upgrade your forum to 1.8. You can't downgrade, it isn't supported, it isn't finished, and you will destroy your forum.
Hi all, not sure if it's the correct place to post (sorry if not) but is anyone else having problems with github dot com within google or is it just my end. every time I try to download myBB v1.7 - v1.8 I keep getting problems gaining access to github something about SSL , saying cannot connect to the real github. I get no other problems with any other URLs, sites etc except github.
many thanks in advance

I know a lot of my servers often had issues with getting things from GitHub because they didn't have DigiCert's Root CA certificate installed by default.
What OS/browser are you using?
I never have this problem with github, maybe i accept this page on my config, i dunno, but never have problems with any page like this.
Only you have this kind of problems, when you have a wrong date on your systems, sounds like a joke, but i work on pc repair and sometimes is about bios won't work to save changes because have a battery and have to be changed to works propertly.
So if your PC have another date ever you have troubles with all https pages, because certifies take date and this is not fine.
Only in that cases i have many many troubles with many pages, some other redirect me to http page, and works fine. It's the only mistake i've seen before xD.
If this is not the case, you have to clean your cache and when you enter again accept this page and then have to works fine again xD.
