Module hooks are lines of code added teo template files that allow modules to embed features into your site's theme without requiring the admin to make manual edits. Module hooks are generally placed as pairs, one at the beginning of an area and another at the end. This allows modules to place content before or after pretty much any part of Pligg.

Below is a list of many of the template hooks, as well as a brief description of that hook's placement. This is by no means a comprehensive list.
