You always have the option of upgrading to vB 4.2.3 (at the time of writing, this version is in Beta 2), which contains multiple fixes for PHP 5.4/5.5 issuesI see your current point about losing money with each and every sale. But some of your customers might be in an even worse case. As you see some older PHP versions are EOL, and when our host upgraded to PHP 5.4.x we ended up with some strange errors when editing articles in the CMS, and we are unable to resize any attached images in the standard way. It seems to be time to upgrade to vB 5, we already have a licence unless there is a product that can fix problems with articles.
Obviously this forum doesn't utilise every piece of vB4 Suite's functions, but we're on the latest version of PHP 5.5 and will be upgrading to PHP 5.6 once it's released in a stable form in cPanel/WHM's EasyApache configuration tool. We aren't experiencing any problems just now, and we don't have error suppression on.Thanks Cosmic and Fillip H.. I do sympathize with Gergely though. I am not forced to change php versions, but it does feel like with the older versions reaching end of life it would be prudent to upgrade, but it's not really an option yet. I'm not about to upgrade to vb5 right now, since it's a lot of work to prepare and it's not viable without vbDownloads (and some of your other products) available yet.
The cost of replacing a vB4 licence with a vB5 version is 25% of the cost of a new licence (unless it's expired), or to have a Dual Licence where you get a new vB5 licence but keep your vB4 one is 50% of the cost of a new licence.By the way: If we have some Dragonbyte tech products for vB4 is there a way to upgrade to the vB5 version, or is that like a brand new purchase?
