    I am just in the process of launching a forum using PHPBB3.

    I wanted to know what you guys think are the most important mods and plugins for PHPBB3?

    Something that you think will complete your forum...

    Here are the list of Addons one should have ideally.
    • Seo URL Mod
    • Google XML Sitemap
    • Rss Feed
    • Quick Reply
    • Ad Management ( Incase you want to monetize your Forum )
    • Anti-Spam Question

    And the rest depends on each particular forum owner and his forum niche.

    phpBB 3.0.6 (they've just released RC1) will have Quick Reply, reCAPTCHA and several other CAPTCHAs as default. In addition to that some useful MODs include :

    last post topic titles (http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=871075),
    Instant Post Redirect (http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=584852) and perhaps
    Who was here (http://www.phpbb.com/community/viewtopic.php?f=69&t=1576245).

    As above, other MODs depend on forum owner / niche. A reputation MOD might be useful too as rep is default on vBulletin and IPB, a lot of users consider it a necessity.
