I'm looking forward to check it out...

Thanks for all the hard work!

You can think of the xcreate module as an empty module. After installing this module, it can be transformed entirely into a module that fits your needs. While creating a category, you can create two tpl files: one representing the short.tpl section and the other representing the full.tpl section. Let’s explain this with an example.

Suppose you need a game download module.

Category name: Game

Let’s say the custom fields we need are as follows:

For the game download link: use “Field Type = URL”. Let’s enable the dynamic duplication feature because a game may have multiple download links.

For the system requirements field: let’s use an HTML editor. No need for dynamic duplication.

For the supported systems field: it should be a Multiple Selection field.

For the game images field: use an Image Gallery.

You can create as many fields as you want for this game category, and you can enable or disable the dynamic duplication feature for each single or multiple-use field.

All Available Custom Field Types:

Text (Single Line)
Multiline Text
HTML Editor
Image Upload
Image Gallery (Multiple)
File Upload
Dropdown List
Multiple Selection
Single Selection
Date Picker
Date-Time Picker
Number
Email
URL
Color Picker

With this logic, you can create as many categories as you wish—such as a music download category, movie download category, real estate category, etc.—and meet your needs through custom categories and custom fields. Since the short.tpl and full.tpl sections are independent from each other, you can design completely category-specific layouts.

I will release the module very soon.

Another great contribution from you! You're on a roll!

I can't wait to test it!

Viva XOOPS!

The Xoops Custom Field Module that I have been working on for a long time is now ready to be tested. The module can be used with all Xoops modules, but you need to implement the integration for the module you want to use it with. I have completed the integration for the Publisher module, so you can test it with Publisher. I will prepare a tutorial when I have time.

That looks very cool!!!

I can't wait to test it!

Bravo!

With this smart add-on, you can display the contents of the Publisher module anywhere you want in your theme, independently of the Publisher module's blocks.

Example:


custom category="5" = category selection
order="rating": Sorting type
template="publisher_custom": Template to be used
limit="5": Number of articles to display
status="2": News with an active status.

You can find many more example codes and all parameters in the README_EN.md file.

Thank you for letting us know.

Hello,
good job!

I always use an old version of Xoops (2.0.16...) on my site aquaportail.com but sometimes, I use the most recent versions of Xoops to hack "my" code for a better compatibilty with recent versions of PHP.

There's a real problem with PHP 8.4 in kernel/common.php with implications in kernel/functions.php. Fonctions to open, read, etc., a session are not compatible with 8.4 for session_set_save_handler with xoops_gethandler. "$sess_handler = xoops_gethandler('session');
session_set_save_handler..."

Just my two pences...

I just submitted a solution which hopefully will self-correct the issue:
