i think it would be nice to have a forum category for module developers on what would be the best and safest way to use the XOOPS api. For example i was using
Quote:

$uid = $xoopsUser->uid();

in a block of a module i'm writting where as trabis suggested using this to avoid problems

Quote:

if (is_object($xoopsUser) && $xoopsUser->getVar('uid') > 0){
$uid = xoopsUser->getVar('uid');
} else {
$uid = 0;
}


as it can be seen in this thread
Thread

It would be nice to have a seperate forum category for this subject for us to discuss. Any votes to this??

Would be great. Experienced developers sharing useful stuff.
What about some faqs like that:
-> How to use a specific class and it's functions, like XoopsMediaUploader class and fetchMedia function for example.
Don't follow me. I'm lost too.

Very good idea.
How about using development forum on sourceforge since we have our SVN and trackers there?

i didnt know that we could login with the same uname and pass we have here in dev.xoops.org! Thought we had to register again!!Still there are only a few forums there for general develepment. I would love to see a specific one where we can put topics like "Using xoopsUser class" or safe implementations of XOOPS classes,that way it would be easier to find something i think and very very useful for developers who are in the proccess of learning!Like me
