sry, i'm a bit sleep deprived atm

Basically when you look at some hacks, you see that they have added menus to the adminCP / modCP areas. GUIs to make the hack as easy as possible to use. IMHO, someone should make a tutorial on how to do it for newbie vB hackers anyway.

Now that I think of it though, I can't recall WHY I wanted that. IIRC, I had a good reason (someone posted a reason why in this thread), but I'm spacing ATM.

One main reason for the function was for server-side bots/programs to auto-post info (e.g. RSS feeds, whatever). My personal reason for it was similar.

Would you even classify this as a hack? It's more of a collection of vB functions IMHO.
