UBB.Developers Forums General Discussion Chit Chat UBB6 Hack Listing

I have one that I have been working on too.

By the way, you folks should be thinking larger. Hacks are old, think entire Modules. Think anything you add should be hooked into the UBB via the control panel, written as it's own file (with template?) then merged into the UBB in such a way that the next person's hack will not ruin yours. Make sure it is removeable easily too.

My module will have a script that backs up changed files, makes my changes, and has a removal feature to restore the board exactly as I found it. Remember this is just perl. Not only is this all doable but it doesn't take long at all.

I challenge you all to adopt similar thinking.

Now pardon me while I stand back and watch.
