Hello.

I use and **translate to spanish** only **[official plugins](https://meta.discourse.org/search?q=%23official%20%20category%3A22)** with the hope they will be part of core soon 😊

Right now, I’m using:

- **[Data Explorer](https://meta.discourse.org/t/32566?silent=true)**, because if you do care your community, you will need more info about it 👍  
Check this _[data explorer repo](https://github.com/SidVal/discourse-data-explorer/blob/queries/querys.md)_ for more custom queries.
- **Discourse Solved** , because every support site must use it: ✅
- **Advertising Plugin for Discourse** , because my forum needs ads for live too 😛

Regards
