Hi, I'm just wondering if there's a way for me to add new modules to CMSMS... I'd like to try a few different WYSIWYG editors as well as more upto date versions of the ones currently available for it (Namely TinyMCE 2, HTMLArea 3, FCKEditor)...

Re: Adding new modules
yeah, just download them, extract the folder, and put it in your modules directory. Then when you go to the admin interface, it should show up there and you can install it.

Re: Adding new modules
I'll take this opportunity to add yet another thing to wishy's todo list....
the ability to upload and automatically unpack/install modules and plugins would be cool.

Re: Adding new modules
I agree. Maybe someone could implement this functionality in a module? If it works it can become part of the admin later on.
Re: Adding new modules
This is definitely on the list for a future release. We have to try to figure out all of the security implications before we implement, but it will happen ... eventually 

Many modules available from the http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org

Re: Adding new modules
I don't know in which post wishy mentioned something about this, but he said that he would like to implement this when all the issues are solve about this. Another CMS (see signature) where I am working with has these possibilties. There you can upload a .zip file and this will be automatically unzipped and installed...calguy1000 wrote: the ability to upload and automatically unpack/install modules and plugins would be cool.
