The module folder (contacts in this example) resides on the top level of the moregroupware tree. It must(!) contain at least the following folders: inc / lang / templates. All important scripts which will be triggered by the application should also go into this folder.

The module include folder is the place where you can keep your include files with module specific functions or classes. IMPORTANT: you can define a file with the name mmmmm_func.inc.php (where mmmmmm = modulename / name of your modulefolder) this file will be auto-included in your scripts. More on this below.

The folder contains the language files for the module following this naming convention: mmmmm.xx.lang (where mmmm = modulename, xx = language code) IMPORTANT: This language file will be read in automaticly by the framework, so please be careful to name it correctly. If you want to know more please refer to "how to localize Moregroupware" You should provide at least mmmmm.en.lang. If you can provide more languages yourself, add more files to the module lang folder, as you can see above, the contacts module has more language files.

This folder doesnt contain any files, but other folder(s). "default" is the default skin of your module, you should place your templates into this tree (not the directory itself) when you add a new module. There is the chance to add other folders into templates for example "blueice" if you want to have a skin called blueice. But at the moment, put everything in "default", or more exactly, put everything in the folders below default.

This is the folder where your templates actually resides. The framework make it possible to output your application data to different target. Right now we moregroupware has html and wml defined as output folders. When you develop a new module, you must at least provide "html" folder.

In this folder should you place all your images and other media files which are needed by your module
