Pliggs

To understand how modules work, you have to understand the filesystem hierarchy for each module. All Pligg modules exist as individual directories (listed by module name) in pliggroot/modules. I will refer to pliggroot throughout this document as the path to your pligg web application.

Within pliggroot is also a file called module.php. This is mostly just a file for use by each Module later. It’s a pretty bare-bones file that calls a few of the essential libraries needed to write pligg pages.

Within pliggroot/modules, there are also 3 php files, modules\_init.php, modules\_libs.php, and modules\_manage.php. My understanding is that these files are called when each module hook is called, and tell pligg how to load the modules. I haven’t read deep into them though, so I’ll let the Pligg maintainers explain that later if they want.
