@Capybara is about to make Flarum Balatro at this rate 😛

Capybara Is there no option to use or adapt this extension to Flarum 1.8.x?

Capybara

Oshvam No, I don’t plan to make a version for 1.x — for that one you can use the simpler Roll a Die extension

Capybara

Oshvam Hi! I looked through the extension’s code and realized it’ll be fairly easy for me to «update» it to engine version 1.x. I’m currently working on improving all four of my extensions since I’ve launched a new forum and have been getting feedback.

For example, in all my extensions Mithril gets re-rendered twice, which causes console errors. It doesn’t affect performance, but it’s better to do everything properly. And I’m also working on improving the design and expanding the functionality.

I’ll release updates for all my extensions under the new name in early January. But going forward, I’ll only continue improving the 2.x version — the 1.x version will be «final»

🧙 Re-release under a new name

The extension previously released under the name capybash is no longer supported. Future updates for Flarum 2.x will be released under the name forumaker.

🔮 Update instructions

composer remove capybash/magicdice
php flarum cache:clear
composer require forumaker/magicdice:"*"

⚠️ If you encounter activation issues, run this in your database:

DELETE FROM settings WHERE `key` LIKE '%magicdice%';

This command will delete the old values. This extension was used by fewer than 10 people, so it shouldn't affect anything significant.

🪄 What’s new in this version?

Minor bugs reported by users of my forum have been fixed

Capybara I do want to add that users can "purge" the old extension in the Flarum UI before installing this too as an alternative to the database delete command if they don't know how to.
