Making Home Brewed Add-ons
|
Can't Post

Is there a process for designing my own add-ons (plug in interface and/or a part of a the processing pipeline) that I can safely inject my own routines that will persist with version upgrades.
The add-ons I am interested in are as follows that I plan to develop myself:
1) XML Output (Inner results HTML without a template is sufficient). I want to be able to make multiple queries and then string them together via AJAX.
2) Attach a PDF to a listing to be searched in via xpdf and grep.
Thanks.

Hi psyba,
Thanks for the post! 
As Listings Manager is a closed source script the best way to see how it interacts with the database might be to have a look at the Listings Manager Database API that we have. It's from an older version of Listings Manager but you should still be able to use some of the sample code to get an idea of how the software interacts with the database.
That said, this API is more designed to show you how you can create an external script that hits the database rather than add features into the admin program itself.
If you'd like to have a look at the Database API you can feel free to send an email to support@interactivetools.com and we can send this out to you.
If you have any other questions or comments, just let me know!
Cheers,
