…pointers Support goes to the usermod author, enabling is documented on Custom Features. The index table becomes one section per usermod with linked authors, official starting points split from the community index, and both pages now point at the 70+ built-in usermods in the firmware repo.
WalkthroughThe documentation separates built-in usermods from community usermods. It adds official starting points, detailed community entries, support and compilation guidance, contribution instructions, and navigation links. ChangesCommunity usermod documentation
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The page’s scope wording conflicts with its separate listing of the built-in user_fx usermod, which could briefly confuse readers about what the community index contains. The PR remains mergeable with owner awareness and a small wording follow-up. Suggested reviewers: Poem

In `@docs/advanced/community-usermods.md`:
- Line 26: Revise the support guidance sentence near the usermod author
instructions to eliminate the comma splice and clarify that the author’s
repository is linked from the usermod name. Use concise, direct wording that
tells users to contact the author and usually report issues in that linked
repository.
- Line 35: Update the user_fx entry description to classify it as an official or
built-in effects usermod, while preserving its purpose, template guidance, and
custom_usermods enablement instruction.
- Line 43: Update the contributor attribution in community-usermods.md so the
license value uses the exact version EUPL-1.2, matching both repositories’
declared license versions.

"ships with over 70 built-in usermods" is poor wording. I'd say "many" instead of 70 and also this may make user think they can pull them in without compiling

Reworded in 125b729: it now says the WLED repo carries many usermods of its own, with no count, and adds that they need a custom build just like the ones listed below.

Fix the page scope statement.
Line 5 says built-in usermods “are not listed here,” but the Official Starting Points section lists the built-in user_fx at Line 35. State that built-in usermods are excluded from the Community Index, or mention the separate official section.
Proposed wording
-Those are not listed here, and like the ones below they need a custom build to use.
+They are not included in the Community Index below. Official starting points are listed separately, and like the ones below they need a custom build to use.📝 Committable suggestion
‼️ IMPORTANT
Carefully review the code before committing. Ensure that it accurately replaces the highlighted code, contains no missing lines, and has no issues with indentation. Thoroughly test & benchmark the code to ensure it meets the requirements.
