Matchbox RC2

You wouldn't need a routing hack for that. Just make an /admin subfolder in the modules controller directory.

[eluser]vlad22[/eluser]
well that is correct, however I cant specify default controller, e.g. when I point to site.com/admin/ there's a 404 message (i have created modules->core->controllers->main which loads main view from modules->core->views->main) so basically i want to be able to specify that the default controller to call should be main.....


or I missed somethin ?

edit: oh dear, i truly am a dumb f.ck, must be the joint i've smoked this mornin

how do i autoload a helper with Matchbox, and also how do i load them manually aswell into a controller?

[eluser]zdknudsen[/eluser]
medium_kreation: If you can't access it directly then it's probably because you're .htaccess is set up to block requests to your CodeIgniter folders. I don't know about the $_SESSION variable, however that is not an issue related to Matchbox.

easylancer: Try reading the 'Introduction' wiki page on http://matchbox.googlecode.com/. If you wish to autoload a resource within a module, you just add the module name as the array key in the autoload array.

How would you suggest structuring a module to contain both front-end and admin functionality, that would be able to be accessed via one central admin facility.

I'm currently prefixing my Admin controllers with 'Admin'. The navigation code for my Admin template determines which controllers to load. So, I might have a frontend controller called Articles extended from a base FrontendController and a backend controller called AdminArticles extended from a base BackendController. I usually steer away from using routes and allow my menu system to handle controller loading for both the frontend and backend templates. I do have one route called admin which loads a default admin controller into the Admin template from a url, but I also included a protected Admin menu option in the frontend which loads the default backend controller and associated template.

Others may be using different approaches.
