Bailey Posted December 28, 2017 Author Posted December 28, 2017 I know, I was on about MyBB and it's says that it doesn't permit changes. "Everyone is permitted to copy and distribute verbatim copies of this license document, but changing it is not allowed." https://mybb.com/about/license/
miwilc Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 @Bailey you are reading the license document, you are not allowed to change the license. You can modify the source code. Take a read https://www.gnu.org/licenses/quick-guide-gplv3.html --Update V2: The merge tool is setup, https://helio.miwilc.com/merge/ Pending the database, and if the staff wants to go through with this. I've disabled registrations on the website while we wait.
Krydos Posted December 28, 2017 Posted December 28, 2017 Nothing is impossible on the internet given enough time and enough motivation.So is that a yes, we are attempting to update the forum?Haha, sorry. I don't have enough time or enough motivation to rewrite my email scripts, account creation scripts, and all the other custom modifications I've made to these forums. I love a challenge, but doing the same thing more than once bores me. Perhaps if there was something wrong with these forums it would solve the motivation issue. 1
Bailey Posted December 28, 2017 Author Posted December 28, 2017 Okay, @Krydos can you upload the scripts to the GitHub organisation and I'll slowly implement them? I would appreciate the scripts being uploaded anyway, if you have time that is.

Perhaps if there was something wrong with these forums it would solve the motivation issue.I think the email scripts and account creation is the only blockers for upgrading the forum, the other modifications (like the theme.) done to this forum will not be needed as it doesn't need to be carried over. Maybe you could post a sample of the scripts (remove any Auth/data.)) we're working with to GitHub as @Bailey said. And isn't this forum version End of Lifed? Better security could be helpful *wink wink*
