CES NuWiki Headers was a vBulletin software plugin developed by Cracked Egg Studios that extended the features of NuHit's NuWiki. This plugin began development on June 7, 2007, was announced on nuhit.com on August 2, 2007, and was discontinued on or about May 24, 2008.
By default, NuWiki allowed users to embed a wiki page at the top of a forum's thread list, a feature called "forum headers," with the option of embedding a different wiki page at the top of all threads within a forum.
Cracked Egg Studios wished to take this idea one step further, and began programming this plugin. In CES NuWiki Headers, it became possible for each thread to have a different wiki page embedded than in other threads, a feature which referred to as "thread headers." On October 21, 2007, the plugin was expanded with header locations for vBulletin Project Tools, allowing for "project headers" and "issue headers."
This plugin was based on the studio's earlier plugin CES Thread Headers that had accomplished similar functionality in NuHit's vBWiki Pro. After the studio migrated from vBWiki Pro to NuWiki, it became necessary to rewrite the plugin for the new software.
This plugin was in use on crackedeggstudios.com from June 7, 2007, until its discontinuation in May 2007, but it is unclear whether the plugin was ever released to the general public. The studio did not keep its own records of this information, and the web sites where the releases would have been posted no longer exist.
This plugin was discontinued when Cracked Egg Studios abandoned the NuWiki software and released a beta version of its competing wiki software CES VaultWiki. CES VaultWiki retained the ability to have "forum headers" for a forum's thread list, but other types of headers were abandoned until the VaultWiki 4.0.x series was released in 2013.
The studio did not maintain copies of discontinued software prior to 2014. Thus, it is believed that no copies of this plugin survive to this day. Due to a lack of surviving copies and therefore, knowledge of the internal workings of the plugin, the data associated with this plugin was not included in imports into VaultWiki 4.0.x.
