We ask everyone to keep discussions civil and on-topic.

Welcome aboard! Forumeze is a general-purpose community for webmasters, gamers and tinkerers.

Use the report button rather than back-seat moderating.

Signatures may contain one link and must stay under three lines.

Curious what everyone else here thinks about it.

Any tips, experiences or strong opinions welcome.

Live music is one of the few things I will happily overspend on.

Started three series this month and finished none of them — a new personal record.

:has() finally lets me style parents without JavaScript, and support is good now.

Container queries changed how I build card layouts — the component adapts to its slot, not the viewport.

Code:
:root { --accent: #4f7cff; }
— CSS variables made my theming life so much easier.

Would love to hear how you all handle this.

Maybe this has been discussed before, but I could not find anything recent.

The upgrade script is reliable but a backup costs you nothing.

Code: PHP
define('IN_MYBB', 1);
— always check for this guard in your own plugin files.

Make sure you take both a files and a database backup before upgrading.

I have been lurking for a few weeks and finally made an account.

I run a small blog and a MyBB forum of my own, so this place is right up my alley.

Looking forward to learning from everyone here.

One small suggestion: a toggle between light and dark mode would be lovely.

Be brutal — I would rather hear it here than from a client.

Traffic is tiny so far but the feedback from early users has been great.

After six months of evenings and weekends, it is finally ready to show people.

Everything is custom except the CMS, and the CSS is all variables so theming is trivial.

I did a bit of searching but could not find a recent thread on this, so here we go.

My current stack is GeneratePress plus a small custom plugin for tweaks.

Full-site editing is powerful but clients keep breaking their own layouts with it.

Returning true from a by-value hook replaces the argument; by-reference hooks mutate in place — check the call site.

I keep a list of essential plugins and thought I would share it here.

Hooks are the heart of MyBB plugins —
Code: PHP
$plugins->add_hook('pre_output_page', 'my_func');
is where everything starts.

Remember: _activate() should be reversible, _install() owns permanent structures.

Bootstrap 5 works fine inside MyBB as long as you namespace your overrides.

I have been rebuilding my forum theme with a file-based workflow and it is so much nicer than clicking through the ACP.
