Basic data
Like in any modules here there are three types of file
- files where data are extracted from database and assigned to template variables contains files word into their name.
- files which display data are templates files and they are found in templates folder
- files used to execute contain action word in their name
Study case – functionality
To add/change functionality watch the following files (admin area):
a) Files used to display list of users:
function.admin_userstab.php
userlist.tpl (template file)
b) Example: Add a new button in user list (for every single user in the list) and to this button a specific task to be done (on Click).
- create the “link” into the function.admin_userstab.php, like this :
$onerow->MyNewLink =
$this->CreateLink ($id, ‘edituser’, $returnid,
$gCms->variables[MyNewLink']->DisplayImage(‘icons/system/MyNewLink.gif’,
$this->Lang (‘MyNewLink’), ”, ”, ‘systemicon’),
array (‘user_id’ => $row['id'] ));
You should have in LANG files the Lang (‘MyNewLink’) defined
You should have the icons/system/MyNewLink.gif created under admin folder.
- use this link ito your template file
- create a file named action.MyNewLink.php and here write your code to be executedwhen your button will be clicked.
c) enable in FrontEndUsers.module.php the action (see around line #1000) and add before parent::DoAction($action,$id,$params,$returnid);
the following line: case ‘MyNewLink‘:
It will enable execution of your action file.
Notes:
all above is happening under folder of FEU module
avoid capitalisation in file name and variables, it is not compolsory but you may avoid headache.
