The rebuildsettings() function is no longer deprecated since 1.6 (and maybe before) and should now be removed. rebuild_settings() should be used instead.

Yeah, it has been deprecated for a while now. Removing it in 1.8 should see no side effects as developers will need to update their plugins anyway...

Yes, it should be removed.

so we have to search and replace it in any plugin if rebuildsettings() present?
for MYBB 1.6 and MYBB 1.8 , correct?

It's 1.8 development, it won't affect 1.6.

Plugins really shouldn't be using at all anyway if maintained properly...

I have never seen a plug-in that actually uses it and many other deprecated functions had already been removed.
