Introduction

What does it do?

This extension was created with the SAV Library Kickstarter in order to be used with the SAV Library Plus extension.

The SAV Library Extension Kickstarter makes it possible to directly build extensions without any PHP coding, thanks to simple configuration parameters.

The SAV Library Kickstarter includes:

  • Creation of multiple views of the data,
  • Front end input of the data,
  • Views with folders,
  • Context Sensitive Help,
  • Generation of emails,
  • Generation of RTF files using database tags,
  • Data export in CSV format,
  • Many other features.

The aim of this extension is to show how an extension can be easily built from an existing table. It will also be explained how to export data in CSV from the extension. The example deals with the fe_users table from which we want to build two forms:

  • The first one (USER) is for the authenticated user who wants to manage his/her personal data.
  • The second one (ADMIN) is for a FE Admin user who may manage all users and export them.
