Incompatibility with other plugins. Modifying the template cache on the fly like that can cause your plugin to stop displaying when some other plugins are enabled.

If you open brackets, do a new tab the next line:

	if ()
	{

This is my first time coding.My first encounter with php was 1 month ago when i opened a plugin using notepad++. I don't know any other programming language except foxpro which i learned at school(very basic). i googled every single php commands and looked at how other plugins were made and did this one by trial and error until i got what i wanted. I will try do clean up the code a bit.

So the only real issue is that template cache incompatibility. And this looks pretty good for a free Side Box plug.

What do you mean by compatibility issues?
Different versions of mybb or different themes/templates?
Incompatibility of themes/templates would be more serious.

Thanks a lot for your suggestions

Indentation has nothing to do with (just) PHP. It's used in every programming language to keep it easy to read.
It also has nothing to do with the experience you have with a certain programming language.

I don't know indentation rules. I corrected all ifs statement as you said

Indentation is pretty much what I said, do a new tab after you open a bracket and go back a tab if you close it

About template cache method:
I will continue to use this method until this plugin becomes stable.
I will replace all str_replace codes by permanent ones before its release.

Developing is easier with str_replace as the effects appear immediately.
Thanks a lot for advices

Might not work on all themes though

And a well written regex [preg_replace()] is much more reliable and forgiving.
