XOOPS Module Development::PHP 8.2 compatibility with XOOPS core?
XOOPS 2.5.11 should work OK with PHP 8.2.
The upcoming XOOPS 2.5.12 is being tested on PHP 8.4

Individual modules are a different story, some of them might have some issues.

XOOPS Module Development::activate block by default
Just chiming in to say I ran into a similar issue after trying to upgrade from 2.5.10 to 2.5.11 on a dev site. The front end loaded fine, but after logging in, I kept getting a blank white page. Turns out it was a module compatibility problem — in my case, an older version of the "Profile" module didn’t play nice with the new core files.

What helped was enabling debug mode via mainfile.php and also checking /modules/system/class/gui/. I replaced it with the default one from the XOOPS 2.5.11 release and things started working again.

Might be worth checking your PHP version too.. I had better luck running it under PHP 7.4 rather than 8.0 for now. Some of the older modules still throw deprecation notices under newer versions.

Hope that helps someone else running into the same wall!

HELP NEEDED

We'll need some help from designers to do some magic with the skins.
Some of the skins seem to be outdated, so we need a refresh:

a) fix those skins that are fixable
b) remove the skins that are totally outdated
c) add couple of new and attractive skins

Who could help us with it?

XOOPS Module Development::Help Needed with Custom Module Development in XOOPS
Quote:

What’s the best way to retrieve data from other modules in XOOPS? Should I be using the existing APIs, or is there another recommended method?
Is there a specific XOOPS function or best practice for interacting with the database across multiple modules? I want to ensure that my approach is clean and efficient.

The best way would be probably to use XMF (see the XMF Cookbook), and specifically the Module Helpers

Maybe something like this (please note: none of this code is tested!):

 use Xmf\Module\Helper; 
 
// Get the helper for the 'news' module 
$helper = Helper::getHelper('news'); 
 
// Get the handler for the 'story' object in the 'news' module 
$storyHandler = $helper->getHandler('story'); 
 
// Define criteria for data retrieval 
$criteria = new CriteriaCompo(); 
$criteria->setLimit(10); // Limit to 10 items 
 
// Retrieve data objects 
$newsItems = $storyHandler->getObjects($criteria); 
 
// Loop through and display data 
foreach ($newsItems as $newsItem) { 
    echo $newsItem->getVar('title'); 
}

How should I structure the permissions for users accessing this dashboard, especially considering the different access levels required for the different modules?

I would work with the XMF
