Xoops Partners 2.0 Beta 1 ready for testing
The Partners module provides a page and a block for displaying links to the websites of cooperating organizations, together with short descriptions and optionally logos. Typical usage includes recognition of websites that refer a lot of traffic to your own and ‘thank you’ pages for sponsors.
This module has been originally refactored for Blue Move by ForMuss, and I have updated it for XOOPS 2.5.x
Please test and let us know any bugs you find.
While we would appreciate if you could test an update of existing Xoops Partners installations, please do it ONLY on test sites.
This is BETA release and as such, not meant for production sites.

Debugging XOOPS With FirePHP/Firebug 1.7
XOOPS FirePHP/Firebug package has been updated to version 1.7, and includes the latest FirePHP class.
FirePHP is a Mozilla Firefox plugin/extension that merges with Firebug and enables you to log to your Firebug Console using a simple PHP method call. All data is sent via response headers and will not interfere with the content on your page, therefore it is ideally suited for AJAX development where clean JSON and XML responses are required.
Frankblack was frustrated with debugging his AJAX applications using just the standard Debug Mode, therefore he ended up using FireBug + FirePHP as addons for Firefox, and he rewrote XOOPS class/logger/render.php to output the XOOPS debug messages to FirePHP, resulting in a very flexible solution. Trabis contributed as well, and now we have a solution that is very helpful to XOOPS Developers.
For more info, please read the Tutorial that is included in the package.
Requirements: XOOPS 2.5.x

Solving ajax giving cross-domain error or responding empty
When assigning XOOPS_URL to a javascript variable in eighter preloads or specific pages.
Most often the browser will deny your request and return only an empty respond. But not give error. This can be seen in FireBug's console when the requests is returning code "200 OK" but text is in red color = empty result. Very annoying
The problem is between Xoops Cookie and browser. I noticed this when being logged in to a xoops page and closing the page without logging out. When re-opened the ajax running in my preloads (in this case XIM and Smallworld) was denying sending messages or posting to the wall.
Also this is a problem if you log out from http://domain.com and open http://www.domain.com.
There are as I see this 2 solutions.
1) Everytime you finish browsing do log out.
Another solution is to define the javascript var used in ajax requests according to actual browser adress.
Add a function to your page (if you add to include/functions.php remember to include this page in preloads or the page your working on)
In your page reset the var like this
The var smallworld_url will now be according to your browser adress and this way not result in ajax cross-browser error.

$host = $_SERVER['HTTP_HOST'];
$script = $_SERVER['SCRIPT_NAME'];
$params = $_SERVER['QUERY_STRING'];
$currentUrl = $protocol . '://' . $host;
return $currentUrl;
} In your page reset the var like this
// Check if request url is with www or without
global $xoTheme;
$urltest = smallworld_getHostRequest();
$xoops_url = XOOPS_URL;
if (!strstr($urltest, 'www.')) {
$xoops_url = str_replace( 'www.', '', $xoops_url );
}
$script = "var smallworld_url = '" . $xoops_url . "/modules/smallworld/" . "';n";
$xoTheme->addScript('','',$script); The var smallworld_url will now be according to your browser adress and this way not result in ajax cross-browser error.

Swayamsat.org design updated, Feedback needed...
I have updated my site http://swayamsat.org with a new design.
The site is now using xoops 2.5.5 and the following modules
1. 3 instances of publisher (hacked to use common js, css files for all the clones)
2. Extgallery
3. Xoopsfaq (Having some issues with not being able to display categories based on weight)
4. Replaced Pical with APCal (Thank you DEDALE for all the updates to this module)
5. xForms
Also added the wibiya toolbar to the website.
I am not that good with color combinations, so kindly suggest if there is something that I can change to make the site more pleasing to eyes and easier to use.
The next on my todo list is to replace discuss with facebook comments on the blog section.

Tutorial: Inheritance of xoopsForm
French XOOPS user br_750 recently published a nice article about inheritance of xoopsForm class. Here is the English translation:
What is inheritance?
Inheritance is a concept specific to Object-Oriented Programming (OOP), to create a new class based on an existing class. The new class "inherits" the properties and methods of the class it inherits from, called "parent" class. The inheriting class is called a "child" class.
This definition is very short and you can enhance your knowledge of object-oriented programming on the Web:

New Module Twitter Beta 1
After a brief tutorial on streaming data of the users of twitter, I created this module so as to have a sorted list of images, title and text of the tweet that friends sent in real time on our site.
This beta 1 is very light but can be changed at will using the css style file, included in the css folder of the module.
The research has a limited number of queries to the search so as not to block the servers too.
After this version will probably be another one that also provides for the registration, login, and the creation of applications using a special form directly from the module.

MyKerkyra.gr updated and optimized
There has been an update on my site mykerkyra.gr. The update involves aesthetical as well as optimization improvements.
Most of the modules of the site are heavily hacked to serve my needs regarding their look and feel and the php code is altered to improve stability, usability and optimize the database queries. The rest are custom made modules made from scratch.
To my surprise optimizing the catads modules as well as smartsection saved my up to 30 db queries in the front page! And there is room for more..
The site also uses my hacked version of backend.php for centralized rss feeds. No other core files have been altered.
Moreover I used URL rewriting for most modules.
There are still lots of improvements to be made but since its usable right now and in a fair level I decided to publish it as it is and keep working on it in my own time. The sure thing is that this one is better than the previous version.
Unfortunately the site is only in Greek right now but you can get the general idea. I hope you like it
