What modifications do you run or use on your board? I use a few: Arcade Sub Forum Manager Spam O Matic Digital Point Analytics vBExperience and a few others.
I use the following mods: [USML] Advanced Link Posting Options AMP New Thread Button in Showthread Auto Check Remember Me & Rules Boxes Digital Point Position Ads Members who have Visited vBulletin Blog vBulletin CMS DragonByte Tech: Advanced User Tagging (Lite) - great feature. Reminds me of Xenforo's alert system VSa - (De)Bump Threads -this one is my most favorite. I bump old topics so that the newer users can see it. And: VSa - Advanced 'New Posts' VSa - Advanced Permissions Based on Post Count VSa - Attention Zero-Posters VSa - Moderating Stats - so I can know what my staff members are doing VSa - Top Posters of the Month/Year VSa - PayPal Donate
I think I was a fan of more vBulletin 3.x mods and hacks over the 4.x options. I liked GAZ by thevbgeek I liked vbseo before 4.x came out I didn't mind vbadvanced but it had to be customized somewhat
I like the CMS system. One of my sponsors bought me the vBulletin license that included the CMS system.
I've mostly used spam protection mods ( such as StopForumSpam ) , to be honest. vBulletin forums gets flooded with spam if you just set up the install and let it be,
Post Thanks Web Templates Arcade Unread Posts & Rep comments in Navbar (not sure of the specific name but it's a Paul M. mod) Members who have visited Glowhost Spam-O-Matic (has been awesome over my old standards of Stop Forum Spam & Stop the bots) Rotating Banner System (vB 4) I've got a few others installed but these are what come to mind.
I wish this hacked worked correctly for xenForo There is a mod for it but it doesn't show all users. I'm guessing we get 40 or so users on each day and I'd love to showcase that.
