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 The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.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
Internal SQL error is displayed when openingThis is probably related to your peculiar MySQL configuration. Can you please share the error displayed? ONLY_FULL_GROUP_BY is known to interfere with plenty of plugins and I suggest you to disable it. This doesn't mean I'm gonna apply a fix for your issue, but it greatly simplifies things not only for my plugins.

Sending a refund just displays ! in the HTTP status in sandbox API call history.Can you elaborate more on these? Can't understand.
Refund amount should have a option lock at the base price, so if the forum gets compromised they wouldn't refund thousands.
The memo on PayPal should contain the account username and UID.
Does refunding not auto-accept a PayPal claim?This might be a nice addition, and in the docs there is the CUSTOMER.DISPUTE.CREATED webhook which might be useful. I will see what I can do.
Re-activating a subscription does not change usergroup.This is a known issue which will be fixed in a future update. The current method to deal with this is either to move the account manually or to manually subscribe the user yet again.
Closing the Coinbase window without doing anything sets the transaction to pending instead of cancelling.This is intended behavior. All Coinbase payments are set to "pending" as soon as you open the window, as even legit payment windows are closed manually by the user. Coinbase usually sends failure notifications after 1 hour if a payment is not detected, and the user is informed accordingly.
I need a mode where additional usergroups are never modified.There is already an option in each subscription which lets you choose between primary or additional groups when upgrading an user.
Is there a way to save the entire IPN data received from PayPal, atleast the email and transaction ID, ideally display it in logs?BankPipe doesn't work with IPN. Email and transaction ID are logged already for each payment: the email is not displayed at the moment, I can add this.
What is the best way to see which forum account was upgraded from which payment? Or when I ban a forum account, how do I instantly find the payment related to the account?You can see a payment's info in your ACP by either:
There should also be a blacklist for emails.I don't think this is feasible. If PayPal lets you block emails, you should do so on their side. There is no way BankPipe can blacklist PayPal accounts.
There should be info if a payment is to PayPal or Coinbase.This is a known improvement which has already been added to the upcoming version. As of beta 10, you can discern between PayPal and Coinbase payments by looking at the "fee" value: if it's 0, it's a Coinbase payment. If it's more than 0, it's a PayPal payment.
Add a way to delete entries.You can delete logs. You cannot delete payments at the moment. I am not sure if allowing to delete payment records is a good idea, I will think about it.
Need a way to not display bankpipe anywhere.You have full control over the link to BankPipe's subscriptions page; if you want to restrict access to a particular usergroup, you can do so from the settings.
How do I display the error for logs?Can't understand this. Please elaborate.
Sending refunds doesn't work, where do I display the error?Refunds are correctly applied in all my tests, so please check your error.log file for any issue which may be caused by your peculiar MySQL configuration.
After upgrading, no matter the settings, it moves registered group to additional groups. This also happens when revoking subscriptions even when I remove all additional groups beforehand.This is intended behavior at the moment. BankPipe backups the old usergroup in the additional groups field. I can add a setting to let the previous usergroup slip away.
I found that one of the ways to resolve a transaction to user is to search for the sale ID in a sql query.So to get this clear, do you want to search for a transaction ID? I can add this even though I would like to hear what's your purpose.
Deleting sandbox, refunded/revoked and permanently banned accounts entries for example.
The bankpipe.php and env=bankpipe url should be changeable.You can use Rewrite rules to shape your URLs as you want (example guide). By design, BankPipe works with those links and they won't be changed.
