A recent post by Angelo (ga.n) describes in details how to create an extension for Contao starting from a language pack, using a command line script designed specially for this. All the information and tutorial is available on his blog:
In this short article I will go through the basic options that Contao offers you to improve the Search Engine Optimization of your website.
Contao 2.9 is now available! The most important changes are the new Theme manager, the Extension Repository 2.0, persistent front end logins (finally!), buttons to share articles on Facebook and Twitter and a style sheet aggregator. You can find out what has been done here. Download new release: ZIP or tar.gz. Don’t forget to update your website!
In this article you will find out how to use Asynchronous Javascript And XML in your Contao modules. To communicate between the frontend and database, we will use the built-in MooTools framework, that is attached to every page template by default. (more…)
It’s been a while since my last post, but haven’t got inspiration to write new ones. I have recently started a new big project in Contao, so I will share my latest revelations about development in this CMS. In this post I will show you how to use code from module1 in module2, without writing it again.
