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 The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.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

ThunderBoard is a plugin currently in development stages which aims to speed up same-page loads on MyBB forums.

Minimum requirements


PHP 5.4
MyBB 1.8.0

Features


ThunderBoard loads same-page changes with AJAX using TurboLinks. For example, you can switch between forum pages without reloading the entire page and changing just the necessary elements. This lets your users enjoy a faster and smoother navigation. See the picture above or test the plugin by browsing between pages here on MyBBoost.

To install and configure ThunderBoard, read ThunderBoard documentation

Can you provide me a temporary access account via PM? I will investigate as soon as possible. This seems critical. Thank you.

A critical bug has been fixed thanks to @Ashley1's reports. To those 2 people who have downloaded the previous "beta 2" version, they might download the new one and replace the old files. No uninstall is required.

Put the new files in and still have the blank plugins page when thunderboard.php is in the plugins folder.

what would you need to do some checks? just an admin level board account or ftp/server access

Just admin is enough. Although I may ask you what PHP version are you running, as ThunderBoard works with 5.4<.

Wow I don't get it... This site loads proper fast even though you have like 50 plugins.

OK, there are few issues:
- there is an issue with header menu (MyBB default theme, css is not loaded)
- issue with custom JS solutions - for example clickable FB widget
- issue with popup modal windows - for example MyAlerts
- issue with lazy load images - images for last poster avatar is not loaded, no issue in console (I use the mod from Tomm).

Claiming there are issues without actually providing a url or step-by-step guide to reproduce them is useless.

Also, JS issues are "chained". If there is an issue at the top of the load chain, nothing will work past that point. It's likely the globalization algorithm is breaking everything in your case, all these things should work fine if the issue on top of the chain is solved.

ThunderBoard currently works with MyBB's default theme without any customizations. You need to edit third party plugins JavaScript according to the instructions provided in the first post of this thread in order to make them work with ThunderBoard.
