MosModule Plugin

The hightlight of this new release are:
* Add a "nostate" switch to bypass "state" in articleid
* add | as delimiter to support "," in parameter
* add introtext to readmore instead of number of words
* change MM back to mosmodule which cause lot of confusion for people
* add alias support to predefine mosmodule command to override the default value via mosmodule.ini
* add reference to article ID or URL
* add support for itemid in readmore command
* add support for escape comma in parameter like \,
* add support space between comma in parameter
* add parameter support for alias file name
* add multiple parameters support in alias definition
* minor fix on correctly handle comma when use | as command separator without needing to escape comma
* null out any left over %s in alias
* minor change on SEF to deal with J15
* add support for MosPrayer

Description:
* MosModule mambot has the ability to display nested article, author, textsizer, embeded video in a content, exec snippet written in PHP (without tags) and exec external php script file pass with parameter (with tags). You can see an example of that in "mosmodule\hello.php". (See more detail below)
* In my mind, MosModule would give me the potential of reusing article that are common to all article without repeating the same content, make my article more dynamic enrich with php code using snippet or external php script file. With the use of the parameters and querystring you can pass variable between mosmodule and the external php script. The possibilities are endless!


Features & Usages:
* Run as legacy mambot support and ability to run inside module (see below)
* MosModule is a mambot to displays any module, article, textsizer, video, exec snippet and external php script inside a content item, grap content from any url, wrapper to wrap any site into your site, rss feed, Gigcalendar, MosQbot
* external script: Please see hello.php for a sample on passing variable between mosmodule and external script
* Add feature to self parse mosmodule bot
* Add support for mosimage in load article and author
* Add support for Nok Kaew and JoomFish in load articleid
* Show MosModule in section/category description (see readme_advance.txt).
* Support mod_mosmodule that call mosmodule mambot in module
* Integrate with MosCom with ability to place comment link any where in content

I'm very new to Joomla! and believe me when I say that this is one of the few plugins that I have got working without any trouble at all!
Just install, publish and you are set! =)

Thanks a lot for this flawless plugin!
Look forward to more plugins from you =)

It is my goal to make sure it works when I release but no software is 100% bug free!

Thank you!

This is the best mambot of my collection.
It's perfect for customize the frontpage content with the help of other modules.

I just have a request:
Instead of use the Module Name. I think it would be better to use the "Module Type Name" (mod_xxxxxx).
Because if I change the name of any module manually...mosmodule will not find it.

PD:sorry for my english.
Owner's reply

Do you mean to use "Type" column instead of the "Module Name" in the module manager?

I can try to see if I can match either column. Would that work?

For example: {mosmodule module=mod_banners} or {mosmodule module=Banners} will work both way.

What do you think?

Thanks

This give us the ability to publish anything, anywhere. This is a must have plugin when you need to call a module, a snippet of code, etc. inside of a content item (as opposed to publishing it in a position). Kudos, and thank you!
Owner's reply

Thanks for your kind words and if you have some good snippet and willing to share please do so.

Thanks

I don't understand why such a wonderful plugin was not praised for such a long time.

When we want to insert a module into mianbody area, it can't be done without this plugin. I just use this mambot inserted a module into my article.

Well I have gotta say this is a nice little plugin - almost like a dark horse in what it is able to deliver.

Played with php snippets and after discovering JCE Editor was corrupting the code, I switched to no wysiwyg editor, plonked in the test code and it worked like a charm.

Used same test code but with the normal php code tags, saved as an external file and that worked like a treat.

This literally just expands the content presentation possibilities enormously.

Thanks for a great plugin. Fantastic.

Rastarr, thanks for you nice review and I appreciated!
