quote: what about a forum with mods installed? is there any varible name change in 3.3?
No variable name change as far as I know, but there is one thing that might cause problems in MODS:
All the config-variables are STRINGS in version 3.3 So if the MOD does a compare with a numeric variable, that compare no longer functions correctly.
Other than that, there might be MODS that can't cope with the archives or the fact that a topic can be in an archive or MODS that don't take into account that a topic and/or reply can have more than 2 states (open/locked), but now also can have "un-moderated" or "on hold" state.
