Softaculous


Topic : Audit Scripts


Posted By: sparek on May 24, 2017, 4:51 pm
Softaculous offers access to a lot of scripts.  That's great.  But some of the scripts being offered haven't been updated in 4 or 5 years and are probably dead projects.  They may not work with the latest versions of PHP or if they do, they output a lot of errors due to deprecated functions.

Does Softaculous audit the scripts it provides?  Does it remove old and outdated scripts from it's library?  I'm not sure if it's a good idea to allow for the installation of scripts that are severely outdated and no longer being maintained.

I know as an administrator I can select which scripts to provide.  But it's difficult to go through all of the scripts Softaculous provides and determine if that script is being actively maintained.

Hi,

We will make required changes in Softaculous to report that the scripts are not updated for a long time and is not maintained so that it is easy for admins to identify which scripts are not updated for long time.
