It'd be nice if we could search the hacks by Product ID, I installed a hack and wanted to check out it's thread but it's installed name has no relation to the thread name here, So it would have saved me a heap of trouble to be able to search by product id.

Just an idea for the future really..

That would require people inserting their product id in the thread. Also, it would required everyone going back and inserting the id for all existing hacks in order for it to generate the results you'd like.

It's a good idea. It could just be a required input on hack updates. This would provide an ever growing list for the search. As far as old hacks that are never updated? Who cares.

We cannot make it required, as vb3.0 doesn't have a product system...

.... and hack authors would often not bother and just fill it with crap.

That has some truth to it.
