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

Returning true from a by-value hook replaces the argument; by-reference hooks mutate in place — check the call site.

Would love to hear how you all handle this.

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

That hooks explanation finally made it click for me.

Interesting — I will have to try that.

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

Always call rebuild_settings() after changing settings programmatically.

Nice plugin, testing it on my dev board now.
