Here's an idea I've had. Not having got to grips with the internals of XOOPS yet I thought I'd run it by a few "experts" first before attempting to have a stab at developing it.
In theory it sounds relatively straightforward:
* Create a new module that you set as the start module
* Under administration the webmaster sets what blocks can be used on the personalised home page
* These blocks should also be restricted to the group permissions of the user - only see what they can access
* Add a "Configure Home Page" option to the User menu
* Present user with a page similar to the Blocks admin page, but restricted to blocks setup in administration
* Save information in a single table related by UID
* Blocks are presented to theme in the standard format so they can be displayed in any theme
For me the issues are: learning PHP (I have a ASP background) and learning XOOPS (internals and module dev process). I think this could be a great module and a good first submission to the community.
Can anyone help me?
Cheers,
