Possible new contrib?

[equilla]

Hi All,

 

I've been working on something and wondered if the "older hands" around here could advise as to whether this would be a useful contrib or not.

 

Basically, it is a credit card/payment graphics infobox, but with an admin side to it. This allows the user to easily add/delete/modify/enable/disable the card logos displayed. The way I have constructed it, it could easily be adapted for "vote for us" type boxes, or anything else where hyperlinked images are needed.

 

To see what I mean, here are some links to screenshots of the catalog side:

and the admin side:

Should be finalised (i.e. compliant with coding conventions and help files assembled!) in a couple of days.

 

Any suggestions as to further card graphics to include as standard?

 

TIA for any comments,

I think it is a great idea, there is already an infobox for credit cards, but not with admin control! When it is ready, I will switch it with the one I have now.

I think you should include American Express and Discover?

If it can be used to house any information, how about settin git so that from admin you can administer mutiple boxes?

Hi Guys,

 

thanks for the comments. I think the multiple box admin idea is a good one (even if it means more work for me!). It'll save having to have a dedicated admin page and database table for each box. Think I will put in a dropdown to choose which box is being edited.

 

Cheers,
