Cooliris Piclens module on CMSMS anyone planning one?

Post by robsta »

Hi

I've managed to build a simple UDT and page/template combo to generate the required media:rss feed for cooliris/piclens... it works well... http://www.designworks.co.nz/index.php? ... -iris  download piclens plugin to see it working properly...

Interestingly our site's images also started appearing on the main CoolIris image wall within a day of us installing it.

Good thing is the user doesn't need to interact (ie add image details to the media:rss feed) it generates the feed automatically using a custom page template and a UDT, it includes images from all active pages that have menus active.

The media feed is part of CMSMS - http://www.designworks.co.nz/index.php? ... oliris_rss it gets generated as a page with a blank template calling my UDT...

anyhow... it works so all's good

Now to the point: I've had a few requests to develop it further into a module.. which I can do... but before I embark on it is anyone planning to add a cooliris plugin for CMSMS?

The cool iris guys seem kinda keen to advertise compatible cms systems on their site... and I'd rather come up with something that's solid (ie a proper cmsms module) that a few people have worked on together...
