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 The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.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

This should be actually working in beta 2 as long as select2's option "multiple" is set to true; it's not here due to styling reasons. A definitive fix (which implies "multiple" to be always true) will be carried out in beta 3 which will support multiple participants in a single chat.Any ETA for Beta 3?

Got some time and implemented a simple yet efficient fix for this, which is now live on MyBBoost. Will be rolled out with beta 3. If you want to apply the patch to beta 2, open inc/plugins/symposium.php, find the function symposium_private_send_start and add under $uid = (int) $mybb->get_input('uid'); the following piece of code:So this is only supposed to be moving you to the conversation if it exists, but still showing undefined for non existent conversations.
