Chapter 5. Other Modules

Members of the XOOPS community have developed a wide range of additional modules: more than a hundred reside in various sites across the XOOPS network. There are too many to cover in this document. However, some of the more popular functionalities available include section management (e.g. WF-Section), calendars (e.g. Tiny Event, Agenda-X, piCal), feature stories (e.g. Spotlight), photo galleries (e.g. XOOPS Gallery, Photo Album), backup utilities, weblogs and custom menu builders. The XOOPS.org download area is a good place to browse for new modules. Another huge repository is the modules official site: XOOPS Modules Site
