Scott Kingsley Clark Pods 1.9.6 isn’t out yet, we’re waiting on the fully working TinyMCE API to be ready, but once it is, we’ve added a new function called get_current_url() You can use get_current_url() to get the full URL including the protocol, current hostname, and URI. This differs from just using $_SERVER[‘REQUEST_URI’] because it’s absolute. You can use …

Examples of names would be like: event_list (template) event_detail (template) event_save (pre-save helper) image_full (display helper) image_thumb (display helper) subscriber_get_info (display helper – advanced) etc… But, now that your sites are becoming more complex, …

Here are some functions I’m working on for it: query (pods_query mapped to this) insert update delete reorder select build (handles sql building for search, pagination, and sorting) table_create table_alter table_truncate table_drop The Pods() and PodsAPI() classes …
