CMS Made Simple Forums

Ah ... now all is clear. Many thanks.

I have written a simple module Foo based on the Skeleton module. How do I install Foo? I guess that I can add a folder Foo under the modules folder and CMS will find this folder and install the module for me.  But I may be completely wrong about this. Unfortunately placing Foo in the modules folder ...

This class  extends Smarty_Compiler and overrides the method _compile_custom_tag and basically nothing else. The changes in the method are not extensive either - just three or four lines.

-null- wrote: The main complication I found was the menu didn't create the same html as the template styled so it didn't look quite correct.  I'm not sure if this was the right way to do it but I just edited the cssmenu.tpl file and removed an un-necessary div.

That was the bit I was wondering about! Thanks.
