You have to provide many informations :
• server hostname
• username
• password

... if one information is missing or wrong, connection is not possible

hi'

Thanks Ghia :)



--- About Php and Mysql version

If I do not create columns for Php and Mysql version, information will never appears in repository. I'm not developer, so if others are agree with you (the date is sufficient), I will not search further.



--- .ods file

1 • Module name
2 • Zip name
3 • Release date
4 • Compatibility
5 • Author name
6 • Module version
7 • Module folder name
8 • Download link
9 • Logo module *

* Column 9 is added and all logos are in a folder (logo name = archive name). Some has to be redesigned. The more easy way to proceed is only two colors :
• orange (old logo) for 2.0.x series
• bleu (new logo) for 2.3.x to 2.5.x series

Agree for two colors ?



--- Module description

Then, it will remain one column at least : module description. We have to create a "canvas" (html). Of course not all modules have a complete description...

Some ideas :
• short description
• long description
• blocks available
• language available
• changelog
• ... ????

Other suggestions ?

hi'

@ghia : thanks for informations. For modules I'm not able to find his php version, I will ask some help


---- About repository

If I compare Xoops core release and modules publication date, I have this distribution.

• XOOPS 1.x : 12 modules

• XOOPS 2.0.02 -> 2.0.18 : 400
- modules: 369
- hacks: 17
- plugins: 8
- misc:6

• XOOPS 2.3.x : 157
- modules: 150
- hacks: 3
- plugins: 2
- misc: 2

• XOOPS 2.4.x : 155
- modules: 140
- hacks: 7
- plugins: 6
- misc: 2


---- Just an idea

To help users, we could display logos for each module. I believe it is more easy to remember a module if we can associate a graphic element (it is the case in this repository).

In this case, we could go further and assign a color for each Xoops era.


Examples :

Resized Image

• Xoops 1.x to 2.0.x


Resized Image

• Xoops 2.3.x


Resized Image

• Xoops 2.4.x


Resized Image

• Xoops 2.5.x


Note : a lot of modules are released with various logos (colors, dimensions, quality, formats, ...). In my opinion, we should propose something more consistent, in the interest of the user :) !


So my questions :
• do we need to display logo ? (if yes I will add a new column in .ods file with logo name)
• if we display logo, do we keep only 2 colours (old design and blue design) or is it useful to add one colour per Xoops version (2.3, 2.4, 2.5) ?


Thanks for your opinion :)

hi'

I do not know about preview issue. But for templates, try :

1 • open your template (or theme.html) with notepad++
2 • open Format menu and in list, choose Convert to UTF8 (without BOM)
3 • save

I hope it helps

hi'

Thanks Ghia & noo-b, it helps !

I will try to look for deprecated functions ($HTTP_GET_VARS / $_GET and $HTTP_POST_VARS / $_POST)

I hope those functions are often used. If someone has better idea, do not hesitate :)

hi' Doug

When you create / edit a block, you can choose wich language to insert. A list is available under edit area : php, xoopscode or html.

Other solution :
• tarik as made a very simple module to slide images
• there is something more sophisticated here thanks to JJDai

hi'


--- Where it is

Some progress in the classification (.ods file). Now we have 8 columns :

1 • Module name
2 • Zip name (*)
3 • Release date
4 • Compatibility (**)
5 • Author name
6 • Module version
7 • Module folder name
8 • Download link


* zip name consists of several parts :
- modules : XOOPS2_mod + module folder name + version + dev name
- smarty plugins : XOOPS2_plugin + plugin name + version + dev name
- hacks : XOOPS2_hack + hack name + version + dev name
- others (frameworks, ...) : XOOPS2_misc + resource name + version + author name

** Compatibility : to determine which version of the core module is supposed to work, We compared the dates of publication of the core with the date of publication of the module. It means, the module is sure to work with the version shown, but it can also work with newer versions. To go further, we need empirical knowledge of users ...



--- Where we go

I could add some columns (example: php version, module description). Some other suggestions ?



--- Need a tip

Now, my question : how can I know the php version of a module ? There are more than 700 modules listed, so a quick tip would be welcome


Thanks in advance :)

hi'

Each form has his own settings : you can choose wich group receive message (not user directly)

You should prefer xforms module (more recent and with a migration script from Liaise) :
