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

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.

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

Good point, I had not thought of it that way.

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

That hooks explanation finally made it click for me.

Thanks for sharing, saved me a lot of time.

Always call rebuild_settings() after changing settings programmatically.
