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 The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.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

@zyra - do you use html templates for all notification emails (PM, buddy request, etc)?

P.S. thank you for your email!

Until now I am only using it for notifications of new posts in subscribed topics... I could extend it to all kinds of mails and I am also intended to do so ... but need to find the time first.

I applied core changes (thx @Shade) and add my CSS and html into lang file. Unfortunately the css part is missing in sent emails :( Any clue? I use MyBB Patches plugin mentioned above :/

EDIT: Here is my code:

Watch out for changes applied by Patches, you need to wrap each line into quotes and add the dot (".") operator to join them.

@Shade - hmm, thank you for your reply. Anyway I tried again without "Patches" - applied changes manually into functions.php file. Same result :( not working css. Can you please check briefly the code provided above if it is fine? I am lost :( Thank you!

Should be fine. However, consider that email providers differ in their CSS syntax support. Check this page and play around with it.

I tried everything, css part is not added into email. I use SMTP over Gmail, maybe is that the issue?

@Shade - please, can you write me how to wrap each line and join them together? Maybe there is an issue (I must doing something wrong). Thank you very much!
