Hello Xoopsers!
After few weeks investigations I decided that I should go for Xoops, I like it so much (the community and all) that I decided I might join the devlopement effort.
Could anyone direct me to some proper documentation? I tried the Wiki yesterday... hummm, not very informative! Actually today it doesn't even work (the link to wiki) see bellow:
*************
Query failed: delete from wakka_referrers where time < date_sub(now(), interval '1' day) (No Database Selected)

By the way, I noticed that you are investigating a way to get XOOPS to be multilangual... well, I m new to XOOPS and php ... but... hummm, What do you think of this solution:
Declare a global variable $lang. and all the "key words" that are to be seen by the end user shouold be indexed by a global array that has $lang as an index.
Example:
If today we have the word english "news" or $news. We should rather use and array $news where:
$news[en]="news"; $news[fr]="nouvelles";
$news[dk]="nyheder"; ....etc
And in the code we use $news[$lang];
If the user sets $lang="en"; => English;
If the user sets $lang="fr"; => French;
If the user sets $lang="dk"; => Danish;
Ok, this implies some overhead and loss in efficiency But it is very clean and clear.
I hope you get the idea! (I'm new to php and XOOPS so it is ok if you all think it is STUPID
.
Pleaseeeeeeeee, some real documentation.... So I can join in as soon as possible...
one more thing, has anyone started working on some e-learning module ??? maybe SCORM3 compliant
