[Boofo], [Hambil], [MbyM] and the others…

You know them well; Robert Boofo Hindal, Hambil, Maria Avlatzi, Jason Rabel and some others… As they are now part of the past of vBulletin, they greedily accepted to let me take-over their work so people are not let on their own when using them.

As for Boofo who passed away sooner this summer, i had to make a public statement on what i was supposed to support after, as i was already supporting his tool on vbEnhancer, when the site was up.

Regarding Boofo’s work, it’s a bit different. Sooner this year, we made a deal that i would take over his work when he wouldn’t be able to set sail anymore… He then passed away sooner this summer, before we get time to set things up, so i have to recover his “pro” work in a different way, which cause a little delay on the support of all his work. But we’re on it.

Most of Boofo’s of the late 9 years were competing mine, so the decision was made to merge all these compatible tools to make only one of each. His “Spider Display on Forumhome” will be merged into my “Crawlers Bundle”, which already have a similar usage but with more features… His “Ultimate Header Greeting” is a duplicate of my “Welcome Msg by the Hour”, so merging both is also a solution… people will see no real difference as most of our merges will give similar results, just with more features.

Same for Hambil, who released some tools i’ve already took over long time ago, like the Weighted Polls, and Ico-Content, which is now the Up-to-Date “Nexia’s Answers Aggregator”, which create 3 different lives on your site: random content with discussions, test site with a load of demo content, virtual members with life…

Maria’s stuff is a bit different. other coders have taken over her releases, which were coded by some paid coders who had a single goal, convert existing engines to vBulletin… this is different with the tools i have. i will not upgrade the converts, i will simply code new engines from zero. Classifieds, Personal Ads, Clubs, etc

There are other codes who demoted their work to be reusable, so i take that chance and do it my way… you will have these tools distributed in the different sections of this site, and i hope you’re pleased with them.

    That is good to know 🙂

    Hopefully through time you can help me with one of Boofo’s paid mods that I lost when my site was hacked, as far as I know I was the only person other than Bob to run the hack and I’ve still got the product file – just haven’t got the required functions_boofo.php file anymore as Bob uploaded it personally to my site and I never got a backup taken before being hacked.

    Anyway, we’ll see how things develop with you in charge now – look forward to see your crawlers bundle updated for vB4, I can remember using that with some success back in the days of vB3.x.x

    i actually have all the latest pro versions of Boofo’s work… 😉

    and the Crawler will be bundled in a vB 4.x version in about a day or two, for the old version… i’m building a complete new one which will look more like “Google Analytics in a Can”, for evaluating absolutely all moves made on the site!

    Would I be able to get a copy of the functions_boofo.php file from the forum Home Stats mod so I can add it to my new site – I can prove I purchased the mod or can pay again for it 🙂

    Sounds good, will you be selling mods on here for vB4 once set-up?, you used to have a RSS-feed mod too which was pretty useful 🙂

    the RSS Feed rethink engine is actually on test…
