Wimpex (Widget Import / Export)

[Coroner]

What does this mod do ?
Simply ! It let you export your widgets, or import widgets by an XML (like a product import).
This Mod is only for the Suite - NOT for the forum.

Istallation:
Upload the files and import the product.

Note:
This Mod is in Beta Stage and hopefully it will be implemented in vB 4.0.2 !?
I haven't test it enough, so feedback is required.

The attached "widget.xml" is the exported youtube video "Tekken 6". I have only renamed it.

History:
v1.0.0 Beta 1
The first version

v1.0.0 Beta 2
Added the Template Mode (custom templates for widgets will now import/export, too)

v1.0.0 Beta 3
Fix the template get. Now, all vBulletin templates won't export.

Thanks Coroner! This absolutely needs to be in future versions. Will test later.

Interesting Mod. Just tried exporting and importing my custom ones for Team Speak and GameTracker banners and it works a treat.

Thanks very much :)

FYI Just tried uninstalling this mod and it left the vbulletin cms widget impex option there but as *[widget_impex]*

[Coroner]

Yes, you also have to delete the files, too.

@ coroner:

if you change: <navgroups product="vbcms" master="true">
to <navgroups product="wimpex" master="true">
it will not be shown if the product is deactivated / removed;)

[Coroner]

Thx, will change it for next version

[Coroner]

A quick ugrade is finished. The Beta 2 version will now, extract the templates, too.
Templates will import ONLY if they dosn't exists.

The attached widget is created by @Lynne. This widget has a custom template in it.

@Lynne, hope it's ok - otherwise I will remove it.

This is great! Are you going to have a database of widgets so we can really take advantage of this?

Hello Coroner
i think it is usefull like TMS (https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/showthread.php?t=152931). I wonder why the coder of Widgets here don?t use it for there deployment? The work would be more easy for them and the user ;).

Very nice Coroner. Would be nice if you could attach some of the widgets available on your first post.

I just tried importing the users online xml and it gave me a DB error.
