Description

Tiki 1.9.8 ships with 94 modules. (excellent)


Need a "module manager"

Module should come with a screenshot or preview.

A page listing all modules with descriptions and parameters- grouped by feature.


currently, the "user modules" and "assigned modules" titles are very non-intuitive. Should say "custom modules" and "active modules"




However, all modules are listed at all times. Module listing should check for features which are activated. It would be easier on new Tiki admins. For example, if articles are deactivated, don't show me last_articles in tiki-admin_modules.php



Admin modules does not display titles of available modules or provide easy method for selecting unused modules, such as with a listbox. The missing information is not available unless a Tiki admin has system admin permissions.



Also, all possible parameters for the current module should be listed (or picked from a drop-down)
