<div><font color="#222222" face="arial, sans-serif">Due to this model we were able to achieve embedding some of the incomplete pieces (Settings of UI5) into new UI as you notice in the early access code.</font></div><div>

Hello!<br>I was looking into your new VTiger6, and I am considering few things about creating new modules (I've already read vtiger 6 developer guide )<div><br></div><div>So few questions:</div><div>1. Would directory "modules" will still exist in new vtiger 6, and there would be main files for listview, create, edit, detail view, and main file for module itself ?</div>
<div><br></div><div>2. What is the main purpose for vtiger6 directory in root directory of vtigercrm if we are considering building new modules, is it dedicated mainly for:</div><div>- language</div><div>- additional functionalities ( like status history, hierarchy list, custom link etc ? ) [ building the view of the functionalities, and creating content for that functionalities )</div>
<div> // I am supposing that in vtiger6/modules/MODULE_NAME/views we are preparing the content to display , and then in vtiger6/layouts/vlayout/modules/MODULE_NAME we are creating the html content</div><div>- adding new links on the left side</div>
<div><br></div><div>3. The last question (connected with the two above): the simpliest module, with just some records ( adding/editing/deleting ) without any special links, special views etc would have structure ( in installing zip package ) like:</div>
<div>modules/NEW_MODULE/ - which containst NEW_MODULE.php, ListView.php, EditView.php etc<br>vtiger6/languages/en_us/NEW_MODULE.php ( which is just language file, with array of translations </div><div>?</div><div><br></div>
<div>Best Regards,</div><div>Artur Rietz</div>
