EFQ Directory 0.1.1 alpha version released
Date 2006/2/26 18:10:00 | Topic: Modules
| I am happy to announce the first test release of the EFQ directory module. EFQ directory is a module that allows webmasters to manage yellow pages like directories within their XOOPS installations. Because it uses customizable data fields, the administrator can set up custom made directories and categories.
This is the first alpha release and the module is far from ready for production sites. In the coming weeks the module will need to be tested and features will need to be added and improved.
I hope this module will be appreciated and that with your help this module can become of better value to you. The first focus will be on solving bugs and issues though.
Design
For this project I can certainly use some help with giving the module a nice looking design. Suggestions and contributions will be appreciated.
