Component Creator Event Triggers - Proposed Solution

This document is a white paper detailing the proposed implementation of a new “Triggers” solution in Component creator. It aims to address the fact that many developers need to add custom functionality to their components and when they do, they either lose the ability to update the component with changes made in Component Creator, or they will need to keep track of their custom changes and re-apply them after updating Component Creator.

You can contribute to the discussion about this issue on GitHub.

Component Creator now supports the new Joomla routing system

In Joomla 3.8 a new routing system was added and now you can now use it for the components you build with Component Creator. 

The new routing system defines a new and more flexible interface for developers to handle creating and processing URLs and gives end-users more options as it relates to how URLs are displayed (including the often requested ability to remove content item IDs from the URL).

Featured User: Erik van Doorne

This week we had a fascinating interview with Erik, owner of Masters of Media. Originally Masters of Media was a music Mastering and Recording Studio, but Erik launched himself into the world of programming in a self-taught way and changed his business to a web development company. Erik is a user we are in touch with on a regular base and gave us several insights on how we can further improve Component Creator. Erik even uses Component Creator to teach groups of students the basics of programming and learn them about database structure and gives lectures about Component Creator on Joomla conferences.
