Farewell

Great is the art of beginning, but greater is the art of ending
Henry Wadsworth Longfellow

I announce that I cease all development and activity in the programming universe indefinitely. My career has reached the turning point I was not expecting for at least another year, leaving me highly off guard and without laid-out plans for this hobby's continuity. I have begun a 5-year residency program in Neurosurgery which is clearly not compatible, time-wise, with programming.

I gave in all my passion for developing, and you gave me back your loyalty and trust, even when I did not deserve that much. Now it is the time for payback. I release all my present and past work as Open Source software, in the hope some talented developer will continue maintaining and expanding my vision of a modern, sleek forum software. The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.

I hereby thank Euan, kawaii, andrewjs18, Ben, Matt, Omar G., effone, Eric J., Devilshakerz, Wildcard, JordanMussi and all the other team members I have had the opportunity to work with when I was a MyBB team member. I thank Tomm M, my mentor, who inspired me to pick up coding with his piece-of-art plugins. And finally, I thank all of you MyBBoost subscribers who have helped me getting through my toughest university years economically.

Yours sincerely, Filippo

This issue is marked as solved
Endless is a plugin which replaces normal pagination with an infinite scrolling concept, based on Flarum's one except it is packed with small modifications which make it completely compatibile with the latest MyBB versions.

More informations can be found in the release thread: Endless beta 1.

Nice, anyway it seems to have a bug with post counter:
http://www.mybboost.com/thread-infinite-scrolling

Click on the "original post" -> it shows wrong number 2 of 17 and then 3 of 17

Next one - post counter should be updated on post send if it is possible

Anyway it is great, there will be sites where it will be really useful

That's the expected behavior. You can see the 3rd post, so the scrubber correctly displays 3.

Now I get it, sorry :)

Personally I wouldn't worry about licensing. Endless is created uniquely for MyBB, with the early inspiration coming from Flarum's scrubber. Other implementations of a scrubber certainly exist. https://meta.discourse.org for one.

I have updated Endless with a more precise scrubber. It's likely I will start testing it on a stock MyBB version soon and it will be then released as beta to Gold subscribers.

Now when you use the scrubber to jump to a specific post, this is highlighted. Also, quick reply should now work without reloading the page when a number of posts multiple of the per-page amount is reached.

Alright, the last update should have stabilized a lot the plugin. It's time to get this packed up as an exportable plugin and test it on a stock MyBB board.
