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 The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.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

Yes, if you want. All the aforementioned files (inc/functions_upload.php, inc/functions_post.php and attachment.php) should have at least 664 when you install BankPipe, but afterwards you can revert them back to whatever you like.

Note that core edits are lost every time you upgrade your MyBB version. You can reapply those edits from BankPipe's plugin row without uninstalling it, but you will need those permissions every time.

Hi, thank you for upgrading and supporting me once again. Ensure you have at least 644 chmod permissions on the following files and retry:
- attachment.php;
- inc/functions_post.php.

Also, can you specify your MyBB version please? The core edit is calibrated to MyBB 1.8.15, and older versions might need a different search pattern.

I have chmodded the files with 777 and it works. default is the files on 644 chmodded so i don't know where was going wrong :P

I'm reworking my forum so i'm on 1.15

664, pardon. It's safer to set chmod permissions to this. Thanks for confirming it works with higher permissions.

I have the same problem, it still doesn't work after applying these chmod permissions.

You sure it's 664 and not 644? It's a common mistake. You can also try with 755 or 775.

I tried both, doesn't work.

My bad, sneaked in a MyBB 1.8.19+ edit in inc/functions_upload.php. Chmod also that to 664 (or 755, or 775, or 777 as last resort) and try again. I've updated the release thread minimum requirements accordingly to warn other users.

If it doesn't work with 777, I doubt you have actually changed those files permissions. Try using a program such as FileZilla or from your server's cPanel.

I set all of the files to 777 and it finally worked.
Should the chmod permissions be changed to 664 after applying the core changes?
