Add-on Starting to do Addons

[fords8]

I have started to play around with addons for Xenforo. I am just wondering what people are interested in seeing. Any old addons people would like to see come back. I have started to mess with a few different things I have seen here from other people.

Could be interesting to release a few smaller ones to get me started.

Thanks for your time.

This will give you a clear idea:
XF1 addons in order of number of replies:

Add-on releases

xenforo.com

Or a search in the XF2 addons forum for deleted addons with more than 50 replies. Not sure if the search link will work:

Search threads

xenforo.com

The addons from XF1 that I miss the most are:

1. Multiple Profile covers slider. (like XFA Extended Cover had)
2. Thread Ratings / Thread reviews. (Same as Resource reviews, but for Threads)
3. Batch replace phrases. i.e. replace all Phrases with a certain text in it.
4. Meta Mirror (turn linked content into attachments)
5. OneSignal (Push notifications for guests)
6. Master Badge, but this is not a smaller one. (Trophies gamification system)

@Alpha thanks for the list. I will look them over.

That's great fords! We need more developers for more addons.

The only one I don't think I want to play around with is that OneSignal. Maybe I will look at it again down the road.

Master Badge have a file I could download somewhere? The last post for the topic has a addon release (XF2 Awards System). Did you like that one? I think I bought that one.

I have a few small ideas for some as well.

XF2 Awards System is somewhat similar to Master Badge. If you have that, then this will give you some inspiration. The difference with master badge is that AS connects awards to trophies, while Master Badge injects functionality into Trophies. Both approaches work.
As XF now includes Font-Awesome, it would make sense to be able to use FA icons instead of award images.

I don't care much for the functionality for users to request / demand awards. I don't think this particular functionality was used by many webmasters.

Pretty much all of AddonFlare's addons were very popular. It's a shame that he vanished.

Well I may wait on that addon for now. Take a closer down the road.
