This controls all modules currently installed or not installed on your system.
In this page you can see two tables: the first one makes a list of all active modules, the other one makes a list of all inactive modules.
Fields of tables:
Module: module's name and logo, and a link to it's main admin page if any.
Version: current version number of this module.
Last Update: last time the module was updated and if it's currently marked as active or not.
Action:
Note: Updating the system admin module will reset ALL modules. This is only usefull if you wish to make a full reset.
Order: order of the module in your navigation menu (if it has a public section). You can remove modules from your menu by setting this to 0. (You need to update the module afterwards if you want changes to be reflected on your site)
Note: Setting this to 0 will only hide the link, not deactivate the module, see: admin/groups for setting up module specific access rights & admin/blocks for configuring any blocks eventually installed with this module.
Info:
Submit opens the page:
All modules are listed in a table. Fields: module, action, order.
The action you selected in previous form is marked.
Choose submit if you want to confirm changes, cancel if not.
In this page you can read short information about the module; modify it's order and action (see above);
modify Access Rights.
Submit opens another form:
where a table shows module's name, action, order.
Choose submit if you want to confirm changes, cancel if not.
Extra:
To rename the link a module shows in your navigation menu, you need to edit $modversion['name'] in xoops_version.php in the root folder of the module in question. If the name looks something like _MI_ .. then the name is defined in the modules language files: /modules(modulename)/language/(yourlanguage)/modinfo.php
Always after making changes to a module, be sure to update the module.
