Glad to see this is happening. Any plans to make it work with PHP versions beyond 7.1?

PHP 7.1 should be active in web hosting for many years ahead. For the same reason that still exist many hosts giving you the ability to use PHP 5.6

To come in your actual question now. Is not something that I don't want, or I can't do (even if it really needs time). The problem is that the vBulletin license does not allows modification and distribution of core files.

Good Start Chris, I will keep an eye on this project.

Thank you. And happy that I'm seeing you active here :)

I come here quite often to see what's happening in the forum world :)

Finally I decided to add a simple registration form in modal window which follows all vB restrictions and rules. Clicking "Read..." opens the tab with Terms. You can Show/Hide this form from product options.

The modal window for Login / Register / Password reminder finished, and I believe that it's good. In the screenshot below:

1. If Registrations are disabled, or the setting to hide registration in modal, the Registration tab is hidden, and instead a "Create account" link appears.
2. The Human verification appears in Login as in my settings I've set to show it. Default is disabled, so no Human Verification during login
3. If you're using kh99 New reCaptcha plugin, the submit button is disabled for as long as the member hasn't pass the check.
4. Finally in the 2nd screenshot you can see the current settings. Now there are only 4, but I expect them to be some dozens. It's not just a Responsive style, is a full product, so many options must exist.

I like the idea but in a way I'm still using vB4 because of its old-school nature. But it is cool for people who want to make it seem modern.

I've active licenses for IPS, xenForo, even WoltlabBB (this expired). Can definitely say that none of them has even 50% of the features that vB4 has. From the other side, the features that have in common, the other brands have them in a more advanced mode, I admit it.

So, the difference is just to keep vB4 alive and add all those modern (sometimes fancy) missing features. I've the knowledge and the passion to add them, but there are restrictions in license, so I can add only features that don't need to edit core files.

Seeing as VB 4 is dead and will never be updated, I see no issues with editing core files any more. Way back in the UBB days before plugins existed, adding features required editing core files. They were released in look for this, and above, below, or replace with were the common notes as publishing the core file code was against the EULA.
