Title: plugins/mod/hack ordered list?
Post by: etabeta3030 on August 03, 2007, 05:21:56 PM
hello :)

forgive me, but I spent a lot of time reading posts unusefull to my search...

Can you tell me if there is a page with a list of plugin with descriptions and download
or if I should search them one by one in the single posts of forum?

Thanks...

Such a summary page doesn't exist - at least not in English. On the French support board, there is such a thread available: "Plugins, Mods et Outils pour Coppermine (http://forum.coppermine-gallery.net/index.php?topic=34152.0)". We're reluctant to create such a page, as it would require constant maintenance and updates by moderators.

After all, there is a sub-board dedicated to valid plugin contributions and an entire sub-board with child boards that contains valid mods, so this actually IS the overview you're looking for. You don't have to browse the support board.

I don't believe in creating such an overview/summary page/thread, as I think that the initial idea is wrong: there are some users who apply mods and plugins just because they are bored and want to spice up their page. This approach is not entirely wrong, but I suggest doing this the other way 'round: you look for a particular feature, search the board for it and if a plugin or mod exists that does what you're up to, you apply it. Now overview/summary page can do this for you.
