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 The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.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

Install problem, not generating files?

This issue is marked as solved
Thought I'd give this ago, Installed the plugin however when viewing the board all the styles aren't loading, and some js.

Anything linking to the "static" folder is returning 404, visiting that directory in FTP shows a folder "1525032778" with no contents and once I tried going back a directory it said that the directory didn't exist.

I have literally just downloaded, dragged the contents of the download into forums root and Installed the plugin, no settings changed nothing. I also did the Cache Buster and Rebuild Global Templates but still no fix. Really sorry if I've completely missed out a vital step to get it working, I could find any more info on installation other than drag and drop >.>

Thanks for any help!

Hi, ThunderBoard should build static JSes when you first visit the forum with the plugin installed. If nothing happens, feel free to post your board URL so I can take a look.
