hi timgno

Quote:

yes, for a developer it is the best module ever (I used it for all my modules till now), so I hope I can help to improve it.

I made some test the lasdays, but still on alpha 1 (sorry, I didn't see, that there is a new version), so maybe you have already fixed some bugs/errors, but maybe it helps.

tdmcreate 1.91 alpa 1
download from github, 02.05.2015
Xoops 2.5.7.1
firefox 37.0.2

1) creating new module:
2 errors will be shown in debug area:
Warning: opendir(/uploads/tdmcreate/images/modules,/uploads/tdmcreate/images/modules): Das System kann die angegebene Datei nicht finden. (code: 2) in file /class/xoopslists.php line 159
Warning: opendir(/uploads/tdmcreate/images/modules): failed to open dir: No such file or directory in file /class/xoopslists.php line 159

if you create this folder "creating new module" works

2) after creating a table the tables/fields view does not proper work, if you click on the toggle at column ID (see
and
)
replace in assets/css/admin/style.css line 216
by


3) in the parameters list and existing table appears more than one time (see
)

4) Question: what does the option "Field: Is parent" mean/cause?

5) after clicking on building module, all is marked es well done, but 2 errors are show in debug area:
Warning: copy(/uploads/tdmcreate/images/modules/xoopsdevelopmentteam_logo.gif): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in file /modules/tdmcreate/class/files/TDMCreateArchitecture.php line 142
Warning: copy(/uploads/tdmcreate/images/modules/xoopsdevelopmentteam_logo.gif): failed to open stream: No such file or directory in file /modules/tdmcreate/class/files/TDMCreateStructure.php line 218

6) if you edit a default value for a field, this value will be not saved - I found not, why

7) in my test I created finally one module with 3 tables

8) installing my new module was not possible because of missing default values in mysql-statement in mysql.sql, so I fixed this errors manually

9) second try to install module: error in xoops_version.php is shown.
error is caused by:

there is a comma missing before 'table2.php'
I fixed this errors manually

10) now installing worked
I have now my module with the 3 tables

11) if I click on in the dashboard on "table1" I get error:
Fatal error: Call to a member function getCount() on a non-object in ...\htdocs\modules\mymoduledirname\admin\table1.php on line 46

Solution: I added to admin/header.php

now it works

12) in the created admin files in the switch list/default the array doesn't contain the value for the id, so the ID is not shown (see
)

I will continuing my tests with alpha 2.
Should I fix the errors ( if I can )in my github fork and upload the changes?

Added field table_solename, in tables to distinguish from the plural to the singular name.

Currently the name of the buttons and others uses, was added table_fieldname from the table, but if it contains a short name, for example, three or four characters as in the following picture,





when we look at a button in admin's not clear what it means




Roadmap:
As soon as possible in this alpha version 2, will be added to other files in the user side.
Alpha 3, we should solve the problem of the display in the lists in admin
Fix some bugs.
Beta solve all the bugs with tests for possible additions if there are requests
RC last remaining bugs
If everything goes as it should next month we should have a Final version
Of course with your help.

XOOPS is really nice php platform, everybody knows that

The big, really big chagrin are themes
What do you think, what makes wordpress (in example) most preferred system? The themes of course. They are nice, completed, modern, easy to use and etc.. people like it and choose it for his sites.
The contemporary webmaster is not this we know - with excellent html, php, css, java and etc knowledge. NOW EVERYONE MAKES A SITES, just because there is a web platforms like WP
OK I dont like it very much, its heavy and intractable for customization, but people like it not only because its easy, there is millions themes and plugins. And although most site owners dont have special skills, they wants to have unique sites, like well-knowledge webmasters, and guess - modern system like wp namely give them this opportunity
So if anyone wandering why fewer people use xoops, the answer is: its not modern because of its theme poverty

XOOPS needs from 100x guys like Angelo (just good example)
Sorry that I cant help, just note this fact, like a really good xoop fan

But I believe in XOOPS and still waiting 2.6 with the promised option "clean url", rewriting all system, modules and theme paths

Yesterday on XOOPS German Support site I've seen a discussion about a "Visitor Counter" module.

I actually never heard of this module, so it was a good tip from Goffy. The module is made by a Japanese developer, and it seems to be working fine! :)

I've made few cosmetic changes, and if you are interested, you can download it from GitHub

Thank you very much for this module. I am not sure if the xoops community realize how important this module is

Julio, great to see you here, and hopefully, you'll visit more often!

Just to address few of you questions:

Quote:
Richard is working very hard on finalizing the next Alpha release, so hopefully it will be soon.

Since we're so busy with a lot of stuff, we have less time for "official" statements or team structures. Eduardo is absolutely a member of the Core development team, and our goal is to incorporate his RMC into the next release of XOOPS as a kind of a "Presentation Layer" that all modules would be using to look as nice as the current RMC modules. Eduardo has already a RMC version in development for XOOPS 2.6.0 (see here). I hope, we'll be able to have a seamless integration, so all modules will have the same look and feel!

We're moving more and more to GitHub development model, so people will be able to fork and submit changes in a more fluid way, with less "rigid process". This is still not documented, as it is still changing, but if there is a need, we could provide some guidelines. However, it should be pretty much the same GitHub development process...

Quote:
We've got already request from XOOPS Germany for these key modules:
- Forum Module: NEWBB
- News / Blog Module: PUBLISHER
- Gallery Module: EXTGALLERY
- Contact Module: CONTACT
- Menus: MYMENUS
- Video Module: XOOPSTUBE
- Download Modul: WF-DOWNLOADS

If anybody has a strong opinion, please let us know, but right now I'll be focusing on finalizing these modules. Of course, everybody is welcome to help. All modules are on GitHub, so everybody just go ahead and fork them, and then submit improvements.

Good idea...

I am not sure, I understood your request here...

Fantastic!!!
Thank you very much!!

Alpha 2 is ready for testing

Fixed bugs
Deleted field_numb this is too, we can use table_nbfields
Changed Engine database to InnoDB
Added Check All checkbox in modules and tables form
Added php __DIR__ function

Download from GitHub

Needed fresh installation

How are we supposed to install newBB 4.33

I pulled the most recent version from:
svn checkout svn://svn.code.sf.net/p/xoops/svn/ xoops-svn

I uploaded the newBB code to my Xoops 2.5.7.1 setup.

When I clicked update Module from the Admin, the entire site went down.

What did I do wrong?

Bump

So How do you resolve it?
Any change do you recommend it o fix/hack on code base?

I left xoops a few years ago, but people who know me still ask me about xoops. I only respond with something like that.

Breaking up with her is never easy, but if you're man enough, you'll know to do it when it's time. (I know, it sounds stupid)

Recently, a friend of mine send me this thread forum, and the github page.

I know Richard (geekwright) has a lot of good job and he has been working for core base for a few years. But it's time to release new versions [0], and drop older versions [1]. So I don't understand why Eduardo and others aren't in the Official Development team.

Kevin (vamptrix)
You rocks man.
I recommend you to stick with only one CSS framework instead make another theme base. Maybe, you can improve the Administration Page?

Michael (Mamba)
Have we got any help page or contributor guide?
I mean, people who wants to help us resolve own issues.

Basic Module Pack
Can we make a survey for it?
A survey for all active users can be helpful.
Let users choose the new official modules. (engagement)
All these modules would be upgrade to 2.6.

XOOPS.org Theme
Please, released it on github, and request cosmetic changes.

XOOPS Admin
Please, stop doing themes for them instead make a solid and foundation admin theme.

I'm busy like others, but here to help you.
