SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

The skill provides a standard pattern for adding or updating admin UI pages in the MyAdmin plugin, ensuring proper ACL checks, safe database access, and consistent rendering with Smarty.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • ACL guarded admin page creation: enforces permissions via has_acl and admin-only access.
  • Database access patterns: use $GLOBALS['tf']->db or get_module_db($module) for queries with proper escaping.
  • Smarty-driven rendering: leverage TFSmarty for templates like view_maxmind.php or maxmind_compare.php.
  • Page registration and routing: integrate new pages via Plugin.php getRequirements/getMenu to expose as admin UI.

Quick Start

Create or modify an admin UI page by adding a PHP file under src/ named after the page (e.g., maxmind_new_page.php), implement the single function matching the filename with the required ACL check and return or render output, and register it in Plugin.php's getRequirements.
