I been reading around and for god sake can't find the API documentation for Oxwall, or a page with methods and classes explaining what they do..

I suppose because this inst a open source software or am I wrong?
if such Api docs exists can somebody give me the link to read..
It is a pain to go tru all files reading it is plain a mess..

regards.

No, I already did something, so that's fixed , if they had documentation of what the code do you will have bunch of developers helping and creating stuff , as of right now if you are new you got to go to every php file and hunt for the ones that gets call up by init script somewhere...

Do you think that is easy for newcomers?
 maybe for you that grown up with the script since its beginnings it would be easier.
But not for new ones at all, it's so many documents to go one by one.. and beside there are many posts asking where the hml parsed, forms etc..

Nuemann "got to go to every php file and hunt for the ones that gets call up by init script somewhere"

 

@Nuemann  Which is why you learn to use the tools of the trade.  Happy to see you trying to figure things out but you are doing things the hard way if you dont use the tools we use (well atleast i use) :

 

FireFox web developer tools  (inspector in secific)

WinMerge  http://winmerge.org/

 

Programmers Notepad  http://www.pnotepad.org/ 

                           OR

Notepad++  http://notepad-plus-plus.org/

 

And one of the tools i have used for a long time and it has been one of the most valuable tools i have used in a very long time

Agent Ransack  http://www.mythicsoft.com/agentransack  which will solve your problem in searching the files for what you want if you learn how to use it.

 

Good Luck :)

@dave,

Thanks for you suggestion , currently using firebug, notepad++, I work mostly with node.js a bit so Firebug for client is a must...
I actually I was too lazy to read how to enable dev development in Oxwall , so that is totally my fault I had dev on for themes only and not for the whole debug....
It is actually pretty nice, you get to see what documents are called so.. Overall I learning slowly but steady..

Thanks.. and regards.
