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 The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.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

two issues with beta 6

This issue is marked as solved
@Shade,

I finally got around to setting up and using beta 6 on a non-profit forum I'm helping out with and noticed 2 issues:

1- when paypal opens its window to go through the payment and what not, if you close said window, this never goes away on the forum side:

2- if you view a subscription you set up in the admin cp and try to change & save the 'expiry usergroup', it does not save. for example, on the site in question, it's currently set to registered. if I change it to 'inherit user's primary usergroup' and hit save, it goes back to registered.

Hi, sorry for the huge delay. Would you mind adding some context over the first issue? It should close automatically, unless errors are fired in your browser console. Can you please tell me which browser are you using if you can still replicate it?

As for the second one, it's confirmed and it's going to be fixed in beta 7.
