New Admin Module - File Editor

[biffs]

Ok, So I have my stylesheets saved in external css files, but I wanted a way to modify them away from my home computer.

I have integrated Gerry's File Manager script into the admin backed in CMSms.  It allows you to upload files, create directories, edit files, even change their permissions on the server if you like.

I know the built-in file manager does some of these functions, but until it can edit text based files, this File Editor comes in handy.

Attached is a screenshot of it in action

You can find it in the forge here: http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org/projects/fileeditor/

Thank you very much - like it.

No problem - one thing I'd like to include in another release is a way to modify the config settings for this.

What I would like is two tabs - one for the file manager, one for the settings associated with it.

I tried using the module maker to set up tabs, but in the end I dint have the patience for smarty tags and figuring out where to put each thing.

Do you mean something like this?

Yes, like that, but for the config.php file that the File Editor uses, to set things like allowing uploads, renaming, permissions changing, etc.

But have you seen the licence problem?

Your module is gpl but Filemanager not!

=============================================================
LICENSE
=============================================================
This script is freeware for non-commercial use. If you like it, please feel free to make a donation!
However, if you intend to use the script in a commercial project, please donate at least EUR 10.
You can make a donation on my website: http://www.gerd-tentler.de/tools/filemanager/.

So I think it's very important to add this to module help. Many Users uses CMSms in commercial projects.

Ah, good find.  I don't typically release modules that I use on my own site, but I am trying to for CMSms because every little bit helps.

Should I change my license for the module, or just put a note in the help/about section?

Yes of course - we need a lot more of that.

I'm not a lawyer but I think you should add a bold note for original licence (or insert a quote] in help section. Then you could point out that only your module is licenced under gpl and not source inside folder /filemanager.
