Extensions of JoomFunding

JoomFunding platform use a collection of extensions like component, module and plugin.

Components

The components are the main functional units of the CMS. They can be seen as mini-applications. Most components have two main parts - back-end ( administration ) and front-end.

JoomFunding built with 6 components:

  • JoomFunding the main component
  • JomFunding Data
  • JoomFunding Emails
  • JoomFunding Finance
  • JoomFunding Files
  • JoomFunding Partners

Modules

The modules are Joomla! extensions which display blocks with content. They can be placed on predefined position included in the template. They are assigned per menu items.

You are able to manage them via the Module Manager.

Specific modules

The platform provides several modules that have to be used in a special way.

  • JoomFunding Info - That module must be displayed only on project details page.
  • JoomFunding Rewards - That module must be displayed only on project details page too.
  • JoomFunding Details - That module must be displayed only on "backing page" and "embed page".

To do that you should manage them using the plugin "System - JoomFunding Modules". This plugin makes it so that the modules can only be shown on those pages (details, embed, backing).

Follow next steps to configure these specific modules:

  1. Go to "Module Manager".
  2. Select one of the three modules.
  3. On "Details" tab select a position and publish the module.
  4. Now, go to the tab "Menu Assignment".
  5. Select "Only on the pages selected" for option "Module Assignment".
  6. For option "Menu Selection" you should select all items where you use the view "Discover Projects" as a menu item.
  7. Go to the Plugin Manager and enable the plugin "System - JoomFunding Modules".

Repeat these steps for the other two modules and they will be displayed only on the pages down for them.

Note: those modules can only be assigned to menu items "Discover". They must be created ones. The system cannot contain many copies of those modules, which are managed by the plugin "System - JoomFunding Modules". The modules are:

  • JoomFundig Info
  • JoomFundig Rewards
  • JoomFundig Details
  • JoomFundig Filters
  • JoomFundig Profile
  • JoomFundig User Pledges
  • JoomFundig User Projects

Best practices: if there are menu items "Discover", "Categories" or "Category", you should assign the specific modules to those menu items.

Plugins

The plug-ins provide functions which are associated with trigger events. When a particular event occurs, all plugin functions of the type associated with the event are executed in sequence.

JoomFunding comes with several plugins and you can find them on the "Plug-in Manager". Enable those that you would like to use.

Note: to find this plugins quickly in plugins manager try to filter with keyword "JoomFunding".
