Please any one give the website URL for How to build a module in PostNuke.

I need very urgently.Please any one help me.

URL for Module developers' Guide
http://docs.postnuke.com/index.php?module=Static_Docs&func=view&f=/pnmdg/

I clicked on the above link, and I see no tutorial for module development there. What gives?

There is a link to the left called Developer Docs.

There is the Example module included with your distro, it is well commented.

There is the openstar.postnuke.com module generator.

If you have never made a PostNuke module before I would suggest that you create a folder "mymodule" (in the PostNuke modules folder) and one file to the folder: pnuser.php (has to be this name).

Add the following code:


You can now intitialise and install the module.

mysite.com/index.php?name=mymodule

This will give you something working to experiment on. The next step would be to have a look at the example module and start playing with some libraries - get a template working with pnRender, create some API's and start referencing them (there is an internal PostNuke API call function.

You can also create database tables as well and start using them - I normally create the tables first and then when it comes time to package the module i then do the install routine. It is better to do like this because the database install is overly complicated and easy to mess up IMHO

Hi Lobos
- created "mymodule" folder inside the "modules" folder
- created "pnuser.php" and pasted into it the code as supplied.
- in Zikula modules admin panel I regenerate modules list
- try to activate "mymodule" but get this notice:
"mymodule > state > invalid"

Has the module creation changed in Zikula?
Are there updated tutorials for new module creation in Zikula?

cheers

i suggest to check http://community.zikula.org/Wiki-tag-DeveloperDocs.htm for a brief introduction into "Module authoring"

Yes. There is a tutorial with Modulestudio that explains how to build a module with it. The generated module basically works and you only have to implement special features. The code is a great starting point for getting into module development together with the other linked docs.
