Ok, who has a crystal ball for this question?

[jonsidneyb]

After this product is available. How long will it take for the guys making custom plugins to come over and start showing their stuff?

Well, what does the crystal ball think at least?

 

[Michael Biddle]

I would like to try it day one.

As soon as its released, all us code monkeys get a copy, depends on how easy the system is and what you are wanting to create

 

[ragtek]

me too

 

[Shamil]

Some code monkey start at alpha (me hangs head in shame for doing this - I only get angry when the code changes).

 

[subtato]

I'm going to start as soon as it's released (or I should say, when I can get a license)

 

[jonsidneyb]

Ok code monkeys. When I see what all is in it I will know what I need made. I might need to hire a code money.

 

[Floris]

Customizations will probably already happen during the alpha testing period so there is experience and examples.

 

[jonsidneyb]

is "code monkey" a derogatory term? I don't want code monkeys mad at me cuz I am going to need them.

I don't view it as one.

The term is thus considered mildly insulting, and is often applied to the most junior people on a programming team. <- erm ok.

Necessity is the mother of all inventions.

Im pretty sure it should be fairly easy to create mods for this system as i hear the framework is quite robust.

Nah, we wear it with pride much as "Geeks" are now self-proclaimed as well. I tried getting "Code Monkey" on my business cards but corporate purchasing said no.

Holy Crap.....so it might be remotely possible the things I want might not be as far off as I think?

I have already started a detailed walk-through article explaining how to write a fully-fledged add-on for XenForo, making use of all of the core technologies. I hope to publish it in the coming weeks.

 

[Brandon_R]

Good god dude i think im having a stroke.

 

[jonsidneyb]

Thanks Kier....

I think I am going to cry. It is so much fun posting on this software.

I am supposed to be working on my store right not but I am having too much fun looking around out here.

 

[jonsidneyb]

Ummm,

When should I start getting my Code Monkey request and shopping list ready?
