Hello RiggsFolly,

Greetings from an old fan!

Which version would you recommend for me:

a. I have a MySQL database

b. I have some old sites with older PHP 5.4

c. I plan to have some new sites with newer PHP versions..

I have a new computer with Windows 10 pro x64 that hasn't as yet had any WAMP installation on it. I downloaded and find myself with 4 flavours before me:

1. wampserver3.0.4_x64_apache2.4.18_mysql5.7.11_php5.6.19-7.0.4

2. wampserver3.0.4_x86_apache2.4.18_mysql5.7.11_php5.6.19-7.0.4

3. wampserver3_x64_addon_mysql5.6.33

4. wampserver3_x86_addon_mysql5.5.52

And what does the "addon" version mean?

Regards and thank you,

Caydee

Hi,

The last version of Wampserver is 3.0.6.

addon means that can be added. So all that can be added to its version of Wampserver without having to change anything.
For example, in Wampserver 3.0.6, you can add thirty-five versions of PHP from PHP 5.3.5 to PHP 7.0.10. On duly explicit request, any version between 5.3.0 and PHP 7.0.10

All available versions and addons are on : wampserver.aviatechno.net/
See : WAMPserver 3 - All you need to know

Hi Otomatic,

Thank you for the link. I installed the full 3.0.6 version and all is working well, straight away with no hiccups whatsoever.

I have been wondering lately if there is a way to use WAMP like Browserify (https://www.browsersync.io/) which would greatly augment the use of wamp in contemporary modern web development methods.

Thanks and have a nice week end!
