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 The intrinsic flexibility of MyBB is the true hidden gem of an otherwise outdated codebase; I do hope the project can continue and be updated complying to the latest coding standards.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

    I think he means more of what MyDownloads has, separate from posts - a directory of "products" which can have their own pages with previews, descriptions ect.. With the added ability to add a percentage cut from user submitted downloads when they ...

    I think I’d also like having the ability to use it without a subscription model. So for example having a marketplace and accepting payments through this, but the site admin can set their PayPal to take a small cut of the payment (configurable in ACP) ?

    Can confirm that this appears to now be fixed - great work bud ;)

    When scrolling certain areas on the site, the content does not fix, and so causes overlapping.
    An example of this, as seen on Safari with a MacBook Pro is shown attached.
