Features

Portable

This framework was tested with the following hosting environments:

• Godaddy Shared hosting (one of the top hosting providers)
• Bluehost Shared hosting (one of the top WordPress hosting partners)
• A dedicated hosting environment

No issues were encountered.

Hybrid widgets

• Create a widget and shortcode by adding a method to a widget controller
• Create the widget's form by correctly formatting the method' comments
• Append JavaScript and CSS
• Use the in-built AJAX component
• PHP templating system
• Access to all of the framework's Libraries, Models, Helpers and tools

Here's an example on how to create a new widget.

• Add a method to a controller in the app/stages/island/widgets/{controller name}/controllers/w_{controller name}.inc controller. Here, {controller name} is the desired name for your widget. The class name must be the same as the controller filename.
• Format the method's comment to describe its arguments and output

Example:

  * Mr.
  * Mrs.
  * 
  * @_content Append information
  * @author Me
  */
 function another($name='world')
 {
    /**
     * Homework: Implement politeness
     */
    // Remove the underscore from "@_param string $gender (...)" in the method's comment.
    /* And -this1)
    {
      // Get the second argument
      $title = strval($args[1]);

      // Append to the name
      $name = $title . ' ' . ucwords($name);
    }
    //*/

    /**
     * Always verify your arguments
     */ 
    if (is_string($name))
    {
      print 'Hello '.$name.'!';
    }

    /* SHORTCODE - ready
     * 
     * The text encapsulated in the shortcode call
     * 
     * For example: 
     *    Shortcode [content another]Foo[/content]
     *    ...produces...
     *    $this-__content = 'Foo'
     */
//      print $this-__content;

    /* WordPress WIDGET - ready
     * 
     * If you wish to be able to set the __content from
     * the WordPress widget form created automatically,
     * remove the underscore from "@_content Append information" in the method's comment
     *                              ^
     */

    /* OctoMS WIDGET - ready
     * 
     * If you wish to set the __content from the template-widget() method
     * use the following writing
     * 
     * octoms('template',OMS_L)-widget('content','another',null,'Foo');
     *                                                             ^
     */

 }// end function another()

For further information please refer to the documentation provided with your package.

Advanced routing

Create a new administrative section by simply adding a new method to a controller.

Do more, write less

Write a complete admin page with less than 20 lines of code.

For example, create a Facebook App ID admin page by adding this method to a controller in the app/stages/island/controllers/actions folder. The controller file name is used to append a main section to the Admin interface.

template-title('Facebook configuration page');

           // Update the data
           if($this-input-post())
           {
                 $this-model-facebook_update();
           }

           // Display the form
           $this-view-display(
                 'facebook',
                 $this-model-facebook_get()
           );

      }// end function facebook()
