You're currently viewing a stripped down version of our content. View the full version with proper formatting.
Hey.. I'm not sure if this is on the roadmap, or whatever.. But here it goes:

What about an API for MyBB? Where you can allow sites to use your API. Such as this:

Admin panel: you can allow sites: [ Sites allowed to use API: website1.com,website2.com, ] ..

How to use the api:

A simple HTML code ontop of the page you want to protect, then it will allow spesfic user groups to access that page, remotly with API ..

Is there a kinda plugin for this, or will it be comming soon? .. Basically i want a API Remote function, where you can protect pages, like only loged in users can access that page, remotly, and they have to be a spesfic rank.
MyBB 2.0 will have an API, but not before then.

We haven't even released MyBB 1.8 yet, so you're looking at a few years before 2.0 is released.

Also, there's no need for inappropriate language.

A few years.. That's lame. Is there any alternative way to do it on same host then, if the forum is hosted on same host? / domain..

like this:
myforum.com
and access it site here: myforum.com/files

Some .htaccess trick might work... But I am not 100% sure which one specifically.
