I am installing 2.0.23 on my local using PHP 7x and want to keep track of the changes i make while installing it. I hope someone may find it useful.

root index.php threw a warning on line 423

was
Code:
if ( count($forum_moderators[$forum_id]) > 0 )


changed to
Code:
if ( $results && count($forum_moderators[$forum_id]) > 0 )


same issue as above on admin/index.php on line 479

I am sure that many will find it of use. The topic that rears it's head more than any other is related to "upgrades" of PHP to version 7.
Just to make it clear you are using mysqli are you and not mysql?

Hi,

I've generally replaced instances of count() that produced such warnings with a count_safe() variants that accounted for null.

So far the install, aside from the 2 edits i mentioned has been flawless and i forgot how fast phpbb2 moves. I am running it on php 7.2 with all errors reporting and so far it is smooth. So i am going to transfer to a live site and get working on the responsive theme i saw requested on the forum here.
