Is there a plugin to just display simple data?

Hello!

I'm making a website for a café and currently I use a table with a lot of classes to output it the way I want it. The problem is that it easily breaks if the people updating it makes a mistake (and that risk is, as with most customers, unfortunaly rather high) so just having a plugin to do it would be great! Does anyone know of such a plugin?

As an alternative, is there a good resource on making your own modules? I haven't found anything yet that is simple enough to get me cracking at once, and reverse-engineering an existing module would take a lot of time since I'm new to PHP.

Try CTL modulemaker. I think it suits your needs.

I've tried it, but the admin section does nothing. The module is created, but I can't do anything with it. Seems like the admin part must be coded by hand, and I don't really know how to yet. I'd do it, but I don't know where to find solid information on how to create modules.

I'll try that and see if it's a good alternative. I already use FormBuilder for our contact form, but I haven't used FormBrowser yet.
