Interface for configuring individual module settings

Module Settings Interface

After selecting a module to assign or edit (see Assigning Modules) or when using PluginModule to display a module in a page or other feature, there are various settings available for configuring the module. This page explains how the interface works for making those settings. See the next page, Module Settings Parameters for information on the module parameters themselves.

Admin Modules Page


Beginning with Tiki7, parameters are set in a form with a separate input field for each setting, grouped by tabs: Basic, Module (if applicable - for parameters specific to that module), Appearance, Visibility. Mouse over the screen shots below to see examples:


desc
7x - Basic
desc
7x - Appearance
desc
7x - Visibility


In versions 4x - 6x, parameters are set in a form with a separate input field for each setting. Mouse over the thumbnail below to see an example:


In version 3x and prior, there are separate input fields for certain basic settings, but all other parameters are set in a single input field using a "url parameter format". With this format, parameters are set as equal to a value, like "notitle=y", separated by an "&". For instance: "notitle=y&lang=fr". Mouse over the screen shot below to see an example:

 Tip
Parameters must be entered without spaces

PluginModule

Modules can be displayed in wiki pages and other Tiki features (blogs, articles, etc.) using PluginModule. Use the parameter names below (not the labels) to set parameters for the plugin using the syntax explained on PluginModule and the documentation page for the individual module (see Index of Modules for links to the individual pages).

Where To Go From Here

Now that you know how the interface works, go to the next page, Module Settings Parameters, to learn about the module parameters themselves.
