Hooks are the heart of MyBB plugins —
Code: PHP
$plugins->add_hook('pre_output_page', 'my_func');
is where everything starts.

Remember: _activate() should be reversible, _install() owns permanent structures.

Any tips, experiences or strong opinions welcome.

Always call rebuild_settings() after changing settings programmatically.

Whitelist-based hooks debugging in class_plugins.php helped me a lot.

Interesting — I will have to try that.

That hooks explanation finally made it click for me.

I disagree slightly, but I can see where you are coming from.

The gid=0 trick keeps plugin settings out of the ACP — neat.

Nice plugin, testing it on my dev board now.

Bumping this because I ran into the same thing today.
