How many plugins are you using?

Just curious. I’ve got 12.

I’ve got 3 or 4 on my mine and my mom’s blogs.

Re: How many plugins are you using?

I’m using 8-10 on two different sites. That number could be a bit smaller but zem_contact_reborn needs at least one other plugin to work right, and then you can add in the spam counter-measure.

Re: How many plugins are you using?

Dang. Maybe I’m trying to do way to much with my site by having 12? Well…I have 12 installed, but only 8 active I should say.

jdykast: what other plugin do you need to make zem_contact_reborn work? It’s been a while since I’ve used it, but I don’t remember needing another plugin.

Re: How many plugins are you using?

To quote myself:

While minimizing plugin use is a worthy goal, I don’t think eliminating them should be if you don’t end up with results you want. – Promoting ‘native’ Textpattern usage

I still believe that.

Re: How many plugins are you using?

I’m using even more: 13 (actually 14, but one is inactive)
Of those, 8 are my own. The number is mainly so high because I’ve split up a rather big plugin into 4 pieces that can be combined as required.

@deronsizemore: zem_contact_reborn + zem_contact_lang + (pap_contact_cleaner)

Re: How many plugins are you using?

I’m usually use two or three on sites, but on my own I’ve got 5 (2 are my own, 1 is rsx_plugins_list). The other two are zem_contact and asy_sitemap. On a recent project, I used 9 plugins, but once I upgrade to 4.0.4, it’ll be a little less.

Re: How many plugins are you using?

I have 3, none of which are truly “necessary” but which add a bit to the site.

Re: How many plugins are you using?

I´ve got 25 plugins installed… 17 active… perhaps a little too much :)
