Hi Alan,<br><br>"Extension Modules" need not follow the general behavior of Entity Module. It can be used when add-on functionality is needed, without the need for new kinds of data objects that users view and manage.<br>
<br>Sample extension module: <a href="http://forge.vtiger.com/frs/download.php/768/MyExtension-5.1.0-package.zip">http://forge.vtiger.com/frs/download.php/768/MyExtension-5.1.0-package.zip</a><br><br>Look at the file structure and the manifest.xml.<br>

Hi all,<br> <br> A quick question...<br> <br> I have installed the vgcal module from the forge and tested it very<br> briefly in 5.10. The basic functionality it offers seems to work.<br> <br> I would like to investigate extending this Google Calendar integration<br>
to add some more features and some user-level configuration.<br> <br> Am I correct in assuming that I should be:<br> <br> 1. using the vtlib api to create a new module,<br> <br> 2. building an Extension Module rather than a Entity Module (some more<br>
detail on building an Extension module would be nice - the vtlib docs<br> don't really cover it to any depth),<br> <br> I am unsure as to which module I need to extend however. The<br> functionality clearly belongs as part of the Calendar module but the<br>
configuration needs to be in the Users Module (a bit like the PBXManager<br> in that it has a block in the user's config/preferences screen).<br> <br> Any basic guidance to get me started greatly appreciated.<br> <br>
Thanks<br> <br> Alan<br> <br> _______________________________________________<br> Reach hundreds of potential candidates - <a href="http://jobs.vtiger.com">http://jobs.vtiger.com</a><br> </blockquote></div><br>
