No way, I have deprecated the new spotlight block but that is not bad news. I have managed to merge the to systems so now you can use spolight skins to display blocks and menu skins to display spotlights. Translating, there is no 'menus' folder and no 'spotlight-menus' anymore. They are now in one new directory named skins. Each skin has now a skin_version.php for some settings, credits, version etc. Each skin has its own style.css and theme.html so theme designers don´t have to face any limit while building skins! Mr.theme has already made a new skin which is very cool! And there is no spolight block anymore. Spotlights are made in the admin has pages. When you click on create new page you will now have 2 options: Block - for creating tabs with blocks Plugin - for creating automatic tabs based on plugin So you just select this plugin or block page on mytabs block and that is it! Further I would like to take away skin settings from the block. I would like users to create skins just has they create pages with preview and everything. The goal is to have a mytabs block with just 2 settings. Choose page Choose skin Understand? So no no no, probably there will not be a mytabs 2.2. It will be a mytabs 3.0 |

| by Anonymous on 2009/1/6 19:04:57 I liked the original idea but this sounds far more better! As a spotlightblock is the eyecatcher from a site it is good to be able to customize it like you want it to be. In case of the plugin related items it would be great to have an option to filter on article id. I can imagine you don't want every new article in the spotlight. |

| by trabis on 2009/1/6 13:46:39 Thanks guys, just want to let you know that I am rewriting the spotlight implementation. Instead of using all options inside the block we will be using another administration tab for this. So you will do it mytabs way: first create a spotlight page, then select the page in the spotlight block and set just the effects. This will allow us to create automatic pages based on plugin or to create custom pages. For plugins you already know how it will look like, choose categories, users, etc. For custom pages you should be able to select items you want to display and override title, description, link, image, etc. This will also allow to create items that are not plugin related. |
