the answer is that not all classes can be extended. More info here https://xenforo.com/community/threads/extended-class-not-being-called-i-dont-have-a-clue-why.212825/#post-1617828

Thank you for your answer. Is there an easy way to recognize which classes can be extended and which not?

Dear Friends: I want to extend the class XF\Api\Result\EntityResult, to add some custom magic to the method render of this class. I followed the same process I used for other classes that I'm extending. created php file for the extended class in my addon added a class extension in the dashboard...

Dear friends, I'm running php xf 2.2.8 patch 1 (not the last version, I know), on Php 8.1 Today, while developing my addon on my dev environment, I noticed the yellow message on the admin dashboard "there are rebuild jobs pending, rebuild now" (or similar, I can not remember exactly the...

Hi Robdog, First of all, thank you very much for your answer. Since I posted the original question I was thinking about alternative solutions for the problem, and after reading and testing your answer, I decided to go into another direction. It is not that your solution does not works, it is...

Hi! I'm developing an addon for my forum, and the version that I currently have from XF is the 2.2.8 Patch 1. As far as I understand, this version of XF uses the symfony/process dependency v 3.4.0. My addon uses the php library php-ffmpeg/php-ffmpeg installed with composer in my addon folder...

Hi, I'm developing an addon that does some work with uploaded attachments (images and videos)and generates thumbnails. I wanted to ask what the best practice is when placing the files being generated. I know that videos are saved under /data/videos/ and pictures are saved under /attachments/...

Hi! I only wanted to ask if there is a way to exclude a folder from the build, and not include it in the generated zip file. I'm thinking about the fixer with integration test, there is no need to distribute this files. As I understand it, the build.json has a property to include things, but...

Hi, thank you for your answer. Yes, I already know the page you linked in your post. The thing is that for my needs, the unit tests would not be of much help. It would be more much more useful to be able to test the forum/backend as a black box, also, integration tests. For example, my addons...

Dear friends, thanks to all who have registered in the last days to apply as beta tester. I tried to get in touch with you, but I suspect my email is being marked as spam. I would like to ask you to check your spam folder, just in case. Thanks for your attention!

Great! Please allow us some days (I am being intentionally vague about the number of days :) ) to recollect all the applications before we start contacting you. Thank you for you patience!

Hi! the price is not decided yet, but as said, we are looking for beta testers. Maybe I should have said, that as beta tester you can test the app with your forum without buying it. And there will probably be a good offer for beta testers when the app is released. Regards!

Dear friends of Xenforo, after a long time developing a native client for Xenforo, we have finally reached the beta phase. The Android and iOS client apps are stable and being tested in a limited number of productive forums. But we need more feedback, and as a result, we are looking for beta...

Fellow developers, my addon needs to generate multiple sizes for each picture attachment uploaded to the forum. Is there a default folder where this kind of cache files should be stored? Maybe /data/my_addon or something similar? Regards. R. Campos.
