Custom Joomla: Custom Joomla 1.7 & Joomla 2.5 Module – Display Database Information. This tutorial is building upon the previous tutorial on how to make a module for Joomla 1.7. In this tutorial it is explained how to query the database and retreive and display information from the database through the module. This is very usefull when you would like to display information from a component, or from the Joomla core. The mod_testmodule.php file can be downloaded below, simply replace this file with the one in the module/mod_testmodule folder from the module downloaded in the previous tutorial. www.thejoomlaking.com






Yes I know. The resolution was 720p
Nince tutorial the only thing you need to work on is the zoom to see the code of the page. But clear and simple explanation.
Thanks
nice, easy and practical intro tutorial thanks for sharing
Ah – sorted. It is important not to try and extract the second file in the same folder as the compressed file – there was a name conflict. Rename the file before attempting to extract the files if you do it in the same folder
To: steevp42. File is ok, Try download it again.
Hi, the file in the link is corrupt. Please can you replace it? Thanks
I did watch that video first, but it doesn’t perform any database queries. In that video he does zip it so it can be installed, but what I’m asking is if an install parameter can be added to the module’s XML file to perform some queries to the database, like you can with a component.
, check his 1st video “create module for joomla”
Is there a way to create an installer for a module? So that in the case of this video, you can send a query to the database that will create the table “hotel_listing” and possibly fill it with some default data? I’d rather do it that way as opposed to checking for the table every time the module is displayed, and creating it if it’s not there.
Awesome videos u make, would u make a tutorial “making a basic compononet for Joomla”. Thank you!
