How many addons will 1.3 replace for you?

[John L.]

As with any release of XenForo we always get a nice set of new features. Most of the time, some of those features overlap with addons we've once used and can now retire from our forums. When 1.2 was released, I was able to remove about 4-5 addons due to the features added. So the question is, how many addons do you expect to have replaced when 1.3 is released?

Of course this is all a guessing game really, we have no idea what new features to expect.

You tease you...

I hope all

Currently: None. I'll just have to wait to see what's next.

 

[Alpha1]

Currently none, but the functionality so far is essential & welcome. I would be surprised if the rest of the functionality would not replace addons for essential functions.

Why?

Why?

Because he is sworn to secrecy

 

[Creaky]

None as yet, depends what else is announced.

 

[John L.]

I suppose this is my fault. I meant this as a guessing game. Guess how many features will be announced that will replace your current addons. Just a guess will do .

 

[Andy.N]

I would be happy to have 2-3 addons removed.

I'm hoping 3-4, the smiley importer easily knocks one of my installed addons out and the enhancements are really nice as I use a lot of smileys on my boards.

Also the ability for mods to edit member fields is also really really nice.

Now without sounding too greedy, I'm hoping for a built in BB Code Manager and Widget framework.

Started off with 60+, now down to 15 . Maybe we'll go to below 10

 

[yavuz]

Before 1.2 there were at some point 75 addons installed, now I'm down to 49 Still a lot of addons

Mine are going up

Mostly because I am now writing stuff to suit my own needs.



I should be able to get rid of at least one of those with 1.3 though

Oh your using xenforo enhance search with your forum size @Brogan
Maybe in few months I'll purchase it too.

About the topic, I'm really hoping to see BD Widget as core feature .

It's worth it purely for the Stemming feature to get better search results.
