The Component Wizard allows you to quickly create a component/extension and the objects/tables you require for a new component/extension. Just enter the names below - Object/Tables should use the singular of the name (e.g. Event), the plural name (e.g. Events) and also code names will be automatically generated - and click on Create.
This will create records for the component and the objects/tables and automatically generate pre-defined fieldsets and fields for the common Joomla! fields.
By later editing the object/table records you can adjust which common Joomla! fields are required. The predefined fieldsets and fields will then be automatically adjusted.
Once the Component name and Object/Table names have been entered this will commence the component generation process. If any errors in the names are detected an error message will be displayed and no component/extensions or objects/tables will be generated. On completion the popup will be closed and the new component/extesnion will be shown in the Component/Extension List.
Enter a name for the component. This is the visible name of the component/extension. This will also be the label used for the component/extension in views.
Only alphanumeric, space and \ / & + - _ ( ) are allowed - this prevents problems in generated code.
Enter a name for each object/table to be created in the component. This is the visible name of the object/table. This will also be the label used for the object/table in views.
Only alphanumeric, space and \ / & + - _ ( ) are allowed - this prevents problems in generated code.
Note: It is important to only use the singular of the name (e.g. Event), the plural name (e.g. Events) and also code names will be automatically generated.
You can also select to import fields from a source table just by selecting one for those Objects/Tables you want to have imported fields.
