Five Must Have Hacks
Hello Everyone!
I just want to say, I LOVE vBulletin! It has to be one of the wonders of the digital age - a definite killer app. In the dot com era, I worked for a company that created (in coldfusion) instant messaging, message boards and chats for companies like VH1, MTV, and Oracle amongst others. The costs were in the thousands of dollars. It's no wonder we died when inexpensive and democratic solutions like VB exist. I'm grateful to VB creators and to those coders and designers who take the time to create hacks and additional functionalities to VB without asking for much in return. To me, it's up there with the invention of television. I still don't know how they get all those people in a box.  Anyhow, I'm sipping on green tea which makes me introspective and philosophical and just wanted to share some love. Here's my question... If you had to install only five hacks on your site, what would those hacks be? You can also include how these hacks have improved your community. Love.

Thanks, please keep them coming. These should help myself and others decide what hacks to install, I'm sure. There are so many, it get's a little overwhelming.

It depends on the kind of site you are running but there are some that are more useful than others. These mods help administer your site, help make conditionals easier, and help your site bring in more revenue:
