Skeleton Module

Post by sjg »

This is a heavily commented "skeleton" of a plug-in module with an admin panel, and is designed to be a good starting point when you want to write a module of your own. It contains a lot of hard-learned lessons, and should speed your development time significantly.

It's on the Wiki and cmsmodules.com.

As usual, I welcome comments, suggestions, etc.
Many modules available from the http://dev.cmsmadesimple.org
The CMS Made Simple Developer Cookbook is now available from Packt Publishers!

thanks SjG!!

i might able to actually write a module now.

BTW, anyone, can you point me to a list of all the default blocks available in cmsms?
the documentation seems to be scarce.

Yeah, we really need to document that...  and a ton of other stuff too.  :)

Hey wishy, i am not too shabby at technical writing and documenation. the only problem is i don't know enough about how the system works to start.

given a list of default tags (like cms_selflink, cms_module, html_blob) and their parameters, i am pretty sure that i can determine what they do, and write some documentation.

I am willing to contribute, but need a starting point. like a list of things to document. (specific things, like the built in tags)

let me know.
