Is there an official documentation or only articles by users? I just want to easily be able to find what I am looking for instead of sifting through 10 threads first. (IE, when 'X' hooks are called and what variables it they have? What the format of cpnav_x.xml is, and does it have a creator like hooks,etc?)

Is there something like the middle one but has hooks and their variables along with other things you may need to know when making a product?

Not that I know of. However, to find hooks, just enable debug mode in your forums

I did but it seems to only show when there are plugins with that hook.

Not true. There is a whole list under the Hooks Called header. Hooks that are actually used are darker in color than hooks that are available but not being used.

I think it may be that I am using php 5.3.0. Where is the debug stuff generated?(What php file)

I don't know what you mean about where it is generated. It shows up on the bottom of any page on your site. I have no idea if it would be different for your version of php but you may want to ask over on vb.com if that is true since I've never heard that before.
