    Okay, project started out as multixoops2, but I'm checking into getting the unix name changed to xoops2be (BE= Bleeding Edge).

    This will affect CVS, and the SF hosted website. Once I get a chance and once the unix name gets changed, I'll put up a site at xoops2be.sourceforge.net, and post news on Xoops.org, to try to garner some support & attn.

      the Development Forum is currently open to the public, unless it gets abused. This is to get true feedback and forum activity from developers and non-developers alike.

      ok these changes all sound good..

      looks like we've both made many changes, so what i'll do is download your current version later today, and then redo/add the parts i've added..  mainly the multisite tick box in the installer and the extra admin group addition..

      i'm getting a few php warning and notices with regard to the 2nd admin group hack functions, but that's probly my lack of knowledge..

      i added a few things in an array such as :

      if (in_array(XOOPS_GROUP_ADMIN, XOOPS_GROUP_ADMIN2, $gperm_groupid)) {
                      return true;

      and it gave me an error well at least i learnt something.. lol what i then did which got rid of the error.. is to use :

      if (in_array(XOOPS_GROUP_ADMIN || XOOPS_GROUP_ADMIN2, $gperm_groupid)) {
                      return true;

      i don't know if this method is actually correct.. but i'm presuming the || means something like an 'or' function?  i wish the college would hurry up and start the php course i've applied for soon..

        hehe, since you're more shaky on php, might not want to commit to cvs, maybe just send your changed files to me and add comments around your changes :-)

        http://www.php.net << very helpful, i use the search box ALOT there.

        and yes, || is the same as OR
        && is the same as AND

      have commited 4 additions to cvs..

      1st was include/functions.php  (added the hack by Jan304 to get gzip compression to actually work)

      2ndly edited 4 more files, mainfile.dist, install/index.php, install/class/settingsmanager.php & install/language/english/install.php

      nothing much really, just included the code to get the multisite on/off switch on the installer screen.

      have now got to write the code now to actually utilise the switch, as at the moment, the on/off radio selection is there but it makes no difference whether u turn it on or not..

      if was thinkin maybe easier just to add a simple if statement.. such as if  multisite = 1 then assign share prefix.. if not then use standard prefix..

      i think that's all thats needed on the installer part..

      I think that can be utilised more with what you're wanting to do regarding the admin module interface we spoke of?

      project name changed to Xoops2BE, i'm working on the project homepage right now

      also, i created a new CVS 'module', called source_model. this is where i'm developing the alternative version of xoops, containing the code to setup multiple sites from one installation. it's a ton of changes across the CMS and all modules, which is why i'm developing it separately. total progress is roughly 60-70% along
