Hey, how is progress coming along on updating this?

@CodingJungle

Just curious if this is going to be updated.  I updated IPS this afternoon and it disabled this application.

Thanks!

I have a feeling this is not getting updated.

i've tested the code in php 8, the only thing that i see that is the problem is with scanner.php itself introduced by IPS. I used an import instead of a FQN. imports are supported by php and are not incompatible with PHP 8. 

I'll release a fix for it, but i really shouldn't have too tbh. 

 

Hi @CodingJungle,

did you have any chance to work on that promised update?

 

[Schaken]

well, here in 7 days this either gets updated or it won't be available to the community anymore. Invision is forcing the PHP update in 1 week. being that he said he would do it a month ago and hasn't yet, I am done holding my breath...

it's been 6 months, He either can't or won't. I gave up and had someone else update it for me.

Can you give me the contact info for who did it for you, or what was done so I can do this as well?

Thank you for the fast response!

[Schaken]

The person who did it for me asked me to not mention him, he didnt want to get in trouble.

I will PM you.

I will always recommend @Adriano Faria for any custom work and fixing stuff. He is within the top 3 (Possibly best?) here and loves to have the work.

Just outta curiosity - When an addon is abandoned, what would it take to have another developer adopt or buy it to keep it updated?

[Schaken]

I think a deal has to be made between the two developers honestly. Im not sure if management gets involved. I know if Adriano got it, this would have tons of options to tie into all his other stuff, it would be simplified and easier to work with and kept up. he tends to go thru everything with a fine-tooth comb and makes everything better. He had a plugin that had an issue once. I simply mentioned it to him, and he fixed it, improved it, and optimized it probably within just a few minutes, lol.

Actually, @Adriano Faria has made an add-on for me for this, so users could upload screenshots of their experience to a certain tab, to show others. My community loves this and uses it alot. so, he is a little familiar with the structure already.
