Make Your Own Addons!

What is this stuff?

Addons are custom features that you can add to your Vanilla forum. Addons are created by our community of developers and people like you!

Will it work on my Vanilla Forum?

These addons are for people who downloaded and set up their own Vanilla forum. Compare your downloaded version with the version requirements on the right.

If your Vanilla forum is hosted at VanillaForums.com, this addon may already be installed there.

Vanilla Approved?

We review addons to make sure they are safe and don't cause bugs. An addon is considered to be "Vanilla Approved" once our review process is complete.

A simple shoutbox for vanilla2 with support for diffrent groups and private messages

This is the new release of Van2Chat.
Since the vanillaforum I was developing this shoutbox for isn't active anymore, I won't release updates until you tell me to (meaning if you wish anything of the shoutbox to change, you'll have to email me ;) )

Now on github:
https://github.com/Caerostris/Van2Shout

If you've got any ideas, no matter how crazy, please tell me ;-)
