MyBB Community Forums

Hey guys well here is a quick application and script i have been working on it's based on the idea by this guy here http://community.mybb.com/thread-123744.html .

However his code was very "unsafe" there and was no API style system to prevent unauthorized access to his script.

Now before i start i'm not very good at PHP so this could possibly be improved but either way here is my work Smile

The old version by the guy above allowed you to get your salt, md5 and more from UID 1 just by visiting http://DOMAIN.TLD/poll.php

Basically this polls a script on your forum and then g ets all new posts for chosen UID



Screenshots UPDATED!

Appreciate it

Why is that just a browser plugin while it could be a core feature of MyBB 1.8.0 or a MyBB plugin?

Mybb could use desktop and mobile notifications. Unfortunately I don't believe that this route is the correct route. I won't download additional software to run on my machine just to get these notifications. If there was a plugin that utilized HTML and Javascript, I'd be one of the first to pick it up. The one advantage this would have is that you wouldn't have to be running the forum in the web browser to get the notifications. But I'm not sure I want to be constantly bothered anyway.

Good question, but its not a browser plugin as such its a windows application and i could make it a MyBB plugin but to be honest it already does what it needs to, it uses MyBB functions to access the database etc.

Well using a native application is the best way to accomplish desktop notifications and i like it, i use it all the time and my community love my fast responses. Each to their own though. I could easily make this a webpage but then what would be different than just going to your "MyAlerts" or "Subcribed Threads"?

Any way new version available both new server side script and new application version, adds the ability to double click the item from the list to view it in your default browser.
