What are your go-to add-ons for Xenforo?

 

 

Do you have any favorites that you use over others?

 

These add ons are my favorite:

• XenAddons Showcase

• s9e/MediaSites

• Custom 404 Page

• [Andrew] Moderator Panel

 

What’s the last add on that you installed on your Xenforo forum? What xenforo add ons do you use the most?

Xon's utility addons once the forum needs them

 

I try to keep addons to a minimal if I can help it.

My first thought was “damn that’s a lot.”

 

Then I went to count mine and realized I’m not far off. 😂

Just make sure you keep them updated.

 

Each addon you install is an extra potential backdoor into your forum. Is there is a security problem in the code and it goes on without being updated, you might regret having it on there.

 

I'm really super picky on the addons I use for that reason.

 

I always read the comments and search for reviews and bad press online first.

 

Another thing about add-ons is they tend to add extra bloat to your forum, which could slow it down.
