Every community is unique. Vanilla is a finely-crafted platform on which designers and developers can build a custom-tailored environment that meets your community's particular needs.
The current version of Vanilla requires PHP 7.2+ and MySQL 5.7+. The following PHP extensions are also required: cURL, DOM, Fileinfo, GD, intl, JSON, libxml, PDO
Upgrading from an earlier version of Vanilla? See our upgrade notes.
Full-text index support has been disabled by default as of Vanilla 4. To enable full-text index support, add a FullTextIndexing
key under the Database
section of your site config and set its value to true
. Failure to add this config value will result in full-text indexes being removed from Vanilla's database tables.
