error after php7 - djpete1959 - 2018-02-20
I get this after upgrading to php7
MyBB has experienced an internal error and cannot continue.
Error Type:MyBB Error (44)Error Message:MyBB was unable to load the SQL extension. Please contact the MyBB Group for support. MyBB Website
fixed by changing msql to mysqli in config file.
But I see this error in admin area

it was tagging plugin. Uninstalled and all good. Solved

I do think MyBB should automatically load mysqli instead of mysql if it is available so when people update they don't have to figure out the cause and fix.
