Module Creator Released. Parameter config extended

Hi Everybody!

As we promised, Module Creator has been released!

The Module Creator can be used in every component made with a premium Component Creator account. You just need to tick “Include Module” on your component configuration and it will seamlessly work as some of you requested.

Once your component is built and installed you can create a module just by going to “Extensions - Module creator”. Click on “new” and search for Module - Your Component Name.

This module will act as a normal module, so you will be able to select the placement, chose ACL settings… The special feature is that it will contain anything you chose from:

1. Custom Content
2. An item from your component
3. A list of items from your component

Extended Parameter Configuration
An extra for this update is the ability to add some parameters to the configuration of your Component. Add some fields on the "Parameters" tab on Component Creator and you will see them on your Component Configuration:




We will keep working hard to make Joomla development easy and fast for everybody, thanks for all your support!

Love the new features! Is it possible to extend the parameter fields to the component views and modules? I use joomla categories in one of my components, and it would be awesome if I could simply select my view and choose which category to show.

Hi Geir, 

Please post it on our "Feature Request" thread and let's see if everybody else think it's a nice feature for the Component Creator.

Best regards,

Andrés.
