ViewsModule Registration in GARSFrom GeekiRegistered ModulesIn order for a module to be accessible to GARS , it must exist as a file in your forums/geek/gars/mods/action folder and be registered. The action folder corresponds to a specific stage of a modules lifespan Registering a module helps GARS keep track of its settings while also ensuring that the required templates are cached to prevent excessive queries at runtime. Viewing your registered modulesTo view your current registered modules, click the modules link in your GARS admincp pane (admincp->gars->modules).

It is important to point out that you only ever need to register a module once. After it is registered, you can use it as many times as you want (even multiple times on the same page with different settings!). Once a module is registered, it can then be added to a module set. |
