Plugin settings with gid=0 — hidden settings trick — follow-up

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

Hooks are the heart of MyBB plugins —

Code: PHP

$plugins->add_hook('pre_output_page', 'my_func');

is where everything starts.

I keep a list of essential plugins and thought I would share it here.

Any tips, experiences or strong opinions welcome.
