We cannot maintain compatibility with older versions, you are talking about a version that is more than 5 years old.
However I guess we should have released a major release, something like 4.X.X

Hi Carlos, I wasn't referring to old version :)
As I mentioned, old version is not important ;)
I was just suggesting to separate location stage in latest Osclass.
Thanks

Subject: Osclass 3.0.2 (blast from the past) ~ related to Osclass 3.7.4 (current)
Hi, something interesting I found by accident today, that is, while testing a plugin for a forum user who could not install it inside ancient Osclass version 3.0.2.
Apparently, it is no longer possible to install old Osclass 3.0.2 (either for fun, or debugging) because of location stage, whose js does not fallback any longer as it did before (and because url for geo installation is changed), so the user is stuck at 3rd installation step 'forever'.
But, anyway, all that is not at all important in this issue; what's important is that we should separate the page (step) of admin/contact/web-title creation and move location step into the next (separate) step after the admin user was created, to avoid this kind of "compatibility" issues in the future, so, users can manually skip the geo stage if it fails for whatever reason, but the admin user, along contact and title will be created (e.g. manual skipping will not skip a lot of tasks, just location task). Hope you get the idea. I know that the js code is no longer the same for location selector, like the one in the past, but who knows if it can "strike again" in the future.
What do you think? :)
