Core plugins wherein a fork of a merged plugin was being used

The best thing to do is write a plugin that overrides the plugin.

Write a completely new plugin? That seems excessive.

Another thing to do is in the line before you clone your fork, you “rm - rf” the merged plugin.

This is probably the answer.

@pfaffman

So do just that in your new plugin rather than forking the main one. There spoilt be a hook to do that.

I don’t really understand this at all. I wanted the functionality of the existing plugin with the addition of being able to tell it to pipe to flagged posts into the chat client, in my case Discord. Are you suggesting again that I write, from scratch, a completely new plugin that duplicates much of the functionality of the existing plugin and adds the new feature that I wanted? Again, seems excessive.
