TXP on MySQLi Box?
Does anyone have TXP running on a box that only has MySQLi? I have a client who doesnt offer support for MySQL- only MySQLi-
Any advice on it would be welcome. Thanks!

Re: TXP on MySQLi Box?
That’s rather unusual, are you positive that is the case?
Official MySQLi support is planned but, as you noticed, not here yet. It is possible to modify several Txp files to use MySQLi instead, but I don’t know how much work it would be.

Yeah they are a Univ and have bull headed IT guys. I have looked into the conversion a bit myself- but from what I can tell It would be a lot of work. I was hoping a more experienced developer than myself could tell me about how much work the conversion would involve as it seems the basic querys would need to be reformatted. My initial assumption is that it would be a very big ordeal.

There’s no difference in queries between MySQL and MySQLi, just the functions that call them. Most of those are in /textpattern/lib/txplib_db.php
