Adding support for Widgets about blackcatcms HOT 8 CLOSED

I've already startet a class CAT_Helper_Widget, so this can be used by modules later on. At the moment, that class is nearly empty. ;)

from blackcatcms.

To collect some ideas I start with this:

• last modified pages
• show latest errorlogs (with link to a optional admin tool)
• Updates for modules and core
  (we could add a variable to info.php so module authors can add a link to a file that contains current version of a module)
• RSS-Feed (e.g. for BlackCat News ;-) )
• Last user logged in
• Statistic
• Adaptable "quick access" to different sections or tools

from blackcatcms.

Updates for core is already 'work-in-progress'.

New vars in info.php are welcome. :)

As for the RSS, I've already thought about a helper class that makes it easy to create a feed. Dunno if it makes sense, I need to do some research first.

Statistics - hm - we don't have much, but I've already added some to the settings page. (Number of pages by type.) What statistics are you thinking about?

Important widget: "Missing modules"

As we moved most modules from the core (WYSIWYG editor, Mailer lib) there should be a widget to check this and inform the admin about missing modules (=functions).

from blackcatcms.

As this is also part of the permissions system (which user can see which widget), the complete integration will be postponed to version 1.1 or above.

At the moment, any widget it shown in the backend if:

• a file widget.php is available in the module's root folder (./modules/<modulename>/widget.php)
• a file of any name is located in a subfolder called widgets (./modules/<modulename>/widgets/)

from blackcatcms.

widget to correct the blackcat file structure (permission,...)
