how many addons do you have?

[dethfire]

In my test 2.1 enviro I have 16, but will have about 25 planned when I go live. What about you?

 

[AndyB]

On my live site here I have 131 add-ons installed and running:

somewhere around 50 seems to be my sweet spot atm

 

[l3ta]

Only two

 

[Mendalla]

Just Xenporta now. Had three on 1.5 but two were rendered obsolete by changes in 2.1.

 

[siONtI]

62

101 and I need more.

I'm amazed you and Andy don't run into conflicts or performance issues!

 

[shimspedy]

On my site, I have 19 addons... but i need to reduce them soon lol

I had plenty of addon conflict headaches. Those were solved by removing all addons by certain developers and by replacing those with better code. And by fixing the addons that could be fixed.
I am careful about what addons I run.

If you install anything you like by anyone, then you may quickly run into conflicts and performance issues.
If you install quality code then a mass of addons can run fine.

Less is better.

 

[Matt C.]

I have 22 add-ons, 6 of which are my own.

I've just counted mine -> 41

I didn't realise I had that many

101 and I need more.

At what point does XF become the add on to your suite of 101 other software packages?

 

[Nuno]

I have a total of 19, 2 official, 4 are mine (template modifications) and the remain are from known devs. Mostly are simple addon that don't add queries.
Only two are more intensive, one is cron job and the other is only available to members and can be disabled.

The frontend impact is null.

 

[Oblivion Knight]

I had 76 (+ many custom edits) at last count..

Things were starting to feel a little bloated though IMO, so I may opt to lose a few over the coming weeks/months.

I consider 'forum' just a small piece of the puzzle. Not the most important part. I also have a XF site that doesn't even have a forum.
Mind that half of the addons I use are for features that are core in vbulletin/IPS and IMHO should be core in XF. (IMHO half of @Xon 's addons should be core)

I currently have 30 addons installed within XenForo 1.5, but intend to halve this with XenForo 2.1. A handful of these addons have become obsolete from various new features added in XenForo 2.0 and 2.1 releases. For instance, native public navigation and sidebar (widgets) editing in XF2.0 alone will remove the need for five (or so) addons that I use on XF1.5.

One of the potential drawbacks of too many installed addons is having to delay upgrading between major XenForo versions (XF1.5 addons do not work on XF2.0+). Fortunately, I only have the one installed addon that doesn't have a supported 2.0 release for the moment . Alpha release... yes, supported... no.

 

[oksiak]

I have 15 add-ons

 

[Xon]

120 for https://forums.sufficientvelocity.com
82 for the XF2 version (work in progress, probably another 10 add-ons to finish porting)

98 for https://forums.spacebattles.com

I've written or maintain nearly all the add-ons used on those sites.
