Joomla! 5 Extension Development Blog
In Developing Extensions for Joomla! 5, the plugins chapter does not delve into the specifics of the stopPropagation()
method. We use it in our content plugin, and if you've tinkered with the code, you may have noticed that after enabling the content plugin, other content plugins for the article stop working. In this post, we'll explore what stopPropagation()
does, its implications for your Joomla! plugins, and best practices for using it effectively.
I’m thrilled to share the highlights from my recent presentation on Joomla! 5, which I had the pleasure of delivering at the JoomlaDay ES 2024 in Spain. Joomla! 5 brings a host of exciting features and improvements that can help you create new powerful projects easily.
In this blog post, we’ll extend the content from the book Developing Extensions for Joomla! 5 by building an editor button plugin. This new button will support the content plugin we wrote in Chapter 8 and will improve the process of adding links to our projects. This will simplify how users insert project links directly from the Joomla! Editor. You’ll learn the steps to set up the plugin, adapt the component to show the layout properly, and integrate JavaScript for seamless project selection. All the required code is provided, along with explanations for each part.
