Automatic installation and updater

This extension automatically installes and updates all components, modules and plugins of this extension. That means that you do not have to uninstall the old version before installing the new version or unzip and install manually. Even the activation of the plug-in is automatic.

Update checker

Within this package, there is a plug-in called "Webconstruction Manager" which checkes for updates of installed products of Webconstruction.ch. A pop-up will appear if updates exists. If you do not want message of updates to appear, you can disable the "Update Manager - Webconstruction.ch"-plug-in in the plug-in Manager. This plug-in uses remote urls to check for version information. This requires the php setting 'allow_url_fopen' to be turned on.

What you should know about the Tableless Plugin

    1. If you still want to use tableless without having access to the front end, you can set the "Rendering by Guests and Registered"-Option in the "Tableless"-Plugin configurations to yes. Then go to the front end and browse through all pages, you want to be rendered. After that you can set the "Rendering by Guests and Registered"-Option back to no.
  2. It is recommended to set a table width (e.g. 100%, 400).

Well, I was working on it for the last 24 hours. But I can say it was quite difficult. But yes there is a new version I am testing and it is also designed for the back-end. Maybe I can update it tonight.
