    Hello!

    I can't develop PHP so I ask this here on forums. To help may takes 5 Minutes.
    I found a Plugin on the old Pocketmine Forums, I can't find here. The problem is, that this plugin is written for Pocketmine Alpha_1.4

    Can someone update it to make it working for the newest (API 3.0.0ALPHA11) API?

    Regards,
    Melonenbubi

    You are on the wrong section of the forum. You should directly contact the plugin developer to update their plugin.

    sorry but this is policy, you have to contact author to upgrade it
    it's kinda lame but only way around is to request the exact plugin, instated of updating request you request a new plugin that's exactly like the outdated plugin by mentioning every feature it has

    That's where you hit the slight loophole.
    Depending on which license they chose, If you base a plugin on the functionality of the certain plugin, but code it yourself, (Without using bits of their code), then that's ok. No license rules have been affected.
    It's only going to be a moral issue...

    it wouldnt really be moral issues if you just give credit where it's due
    if you think an idea worth a credit, do it, if you think copying code worth one, do it too!

    It'd be also helpful to point out which plugin, so that we can assess if it's feasible to do or not.

    no you are not allowed to hire developers here
    but you are allowed to request plugins in condition that: developers arent paid, plugin is public
