XF 2.3 File health check warnings after applying 237-patch.zip

ASap · Sep 24, 2025

Hi all,

I’ve just applied 237-patch.zip and now the daily file health check shows a bunch of “unexpected contents” warnings (screenshot attached).

Pretty sure this is expected since the patch overwrote those files, but is there a way to tell XF to ignore them? Or at least stop the health check from flagging them every day?

Cheers!

Note: If you decide to patch the files instead of doing full upgrades, your "File health check" will report these files as having "Unexpected contents". Because these files no longer contain the same contents your version of XF was shipped with, this is expected and can be safely ignored.

Please read the patch instructions carefully, this is expected.

Yes, I did note that this is expected; therefore, I'm looking for a viable solution.
