[phpslash-users] Development question

[Brian T. <bt...@ig...>]

Hello list,

I am interested in using phpwebsite in developing a cms to handle
vulnerability information.  I need some guidance on some terminology and
best methods.

I want to use the "story" module as the base of a new module to handle
data stored in mysql of a different schema. So I was wondering:

1) Whats the best method for creating a new module with the base being
"story" - or am I looking at the right place to begin?

2) Most of the SQL querries for stories appears to be in
"include/modules/story/ - is the index.php the main include for any
module?

3) Is their any already existing documentation for creating a module?
Will I need a new "section" as well?

Thanks,
Brian Toovey

phpslashforge.org is down for a little while.

This may not apply to what you're looking for.  But as far as creating 
new blocks for a module it is better to make another page in the module 
directory and then create a module block with the "page" block option 
pointing to your new page.

Examples is the relatedlinks.php in the story module.

You will not necessarily need a new section.

The sections are how the blocks are assigned.

If your site does not need different blocks when your module is being 
displayed you can just call it like index.php?module=MyNewModule.

You *should* be able to extend either the base or Story class.  Except 
for the schema differences.  The Story_base.class has the sql queries in 
each method.  So probably of no use to use other tables.

yes.  The index.php is the public include file and admin.php for private.

There were some things spread out.  I've pulled these links into the 
wiki.  Hopefully they will clarify some.  Of course they might lead to 
more questions :)


These two posts try to explain some how the modules and blocks work.

This screenshot may confuse more than clarify.  But it looks pretty.
