Is this a new thing that's happening now? Can we expect these every month? I like. Transparent and to the point.

That’s exactly what I’m aiming for

What a lovelydevelopment graphic
I like these updates.

Thank you!

Great idea and I really like it, MyBB is open source software so the community should know what happens

Keep good work and I am waiting for another Dev progress thread!

P.S.
Personally, I like GUI improvements so maybe some of these could happen - https://github.com/mybb/mybb/issues/1583

Will 1.8.23 run on php 7.4 without issues?

1.8.22 is fully compatible with 7.4.x PHP version, I have been using over 3 months  so dont worry, you can now use already

We are quite hesitant to include template changes in 1.8 and many will be easier to do in 1.9. It looks like some won't need template changes (eg the Admin CP suggestions). Thank you for the suggestion though

Yes - we support PHP 5.2 and up in 1.8. MyBB 1.9 will likely not support PHP < 7.3 so you are good for 1.9 when it is released too.

We have even started to make some progress to ensure 1.8 will be able to support the upcoming PHP 8! See the changes here: https://github.com/mybb/mybb/pull/4095
