MySQL Version 8, Joomshaper template compatibilty

Asked by hillary_h 4 years ago Last activity 4 years ago

Hi team,

Is there a timeline internally of updating all Joomshaper Templates etc to run on MySQL 8

I see that version 5.7 is deprecated from October 2023 which is not far off?

Also, Version 8 has been available from April 2018.

Hosting providers are closing off MySQL version 5.7 and only providing version 8 due to security concerns

It would be really great to know the answer to this?

I am aware that Joomla! 4 only requires MySQL 5.6+

At some point this will change too.
