I learned a lot because he also told me to download a few RECENT mods from him.
By reading them, step by step we learned to understand how these Hooks are working.
Give it a try  ::)

The list approvals is quite long, we're going to have some patience

That's great :)
I don't think I like the hook system anyway, though, it being so complicated at first.

My mods also have been in for quite a lot of time. There's two to be approved, and I'm starting to get the feeling that if ONE of your mods doesn't qualify with what SMF wants all of your mods get pushed to the end, which is something I highly disagree with.

Suki:
@Yoshi2889  No, every mod is independent and it doesn't matter who  submitted it.

Hooks are very simple to use, the vast majority are just a way to manipulate an array.

Labradoodle-360:
I don't think a lot of people realize what hooks are actually doing, and how. As Suki already said, it's mainly a means to manipulate big arrays without a modification be adding a database row that corresponds to that array.

Yoshi:
Guess I'll have to try it out once more, then, and implement it into my mod.

Thanks for explaining.

Labradoodle-360:
I was a fairly firm believer of not using hooks - personally, in my own mods. But eventually, I decided that I might as well try as it eliminates an edit, and I learned how they work in the core, and will never go back to using edits when it's possible to manipulate with a hook.
