Simple Way to Find If Module Exists? [solved]

[kendo451]

I can write my own UDT to find out if a module is installed.

But, is there an already existing way?

I've scoured the forums and docs and haven't found notice of any. I just thought I would check here...

Code: Select all

$gCms = cmsms(); //global $gCms;
  if( !isset( $gCms->modules['TheModuleIWant'] ) || !isset( $gCms->modules['TheModuleIWant']['object'] ) )
    {
       return;
    }
  $themoduleiwant = $gCms->modules['TheModuleIWant']['object'];
  $themoduleiwant->DoThis($somedata);
  $themoduleiwant->DoThat($somemoredata);

Code: Select all

{if $cgsimple->module_installed('FrontEndUsers')}Found FEU{/if}
