Widgets / Blocks? Plugins?

[Christer Mustvedt_68249]

Hi, i'm a new user of the IPB Suite and currently only have the Forum.

I have seen alot of fancy Hooks and Addons around the marketplace that I would find useful for my board, but after I upload the plugin as an XML file and it gets listed under "Plugins" it says it is Enabled.

 

But I am not able to see the hooks or manage them anywhere on my site? Am I missing something?

 

Plugins I cant get to work are :

 

Latest Registered Members or  New Members Today.

I also hear alot of talk about widgets and blocks, where do I find this?

Logged in as an Administrator you should see this on the left hand side of the screen:

 

Click it and find the block/widget you want to add to the page you're on and it'll do it based on the permissions of that block/widget. Some of which will allow you to edit once it's placed (There will be a button that says "Edit"). I hope this helps, I know you weren't talking to me but I stumbled on the topic and thought 'Hey why not, whilst I'm here.'
