Re:Module for folder view - 2005/08/26 20:24
I'm glad you asked that question, because it allows me to demonstrate the flexibility of the new database design 
Since Remository no longer distinguished between categories and folders within the code or the database (other than that categories have no parents and folders do) most of the Remository companion modules will work perfectly well if you put in the ID for a folder instead of a category.
The module that lists categories is unfortunately an exception to that, because the parent ID of zero is coded in. But it is only a few minutes work to turn that into a parameter, and I will try to publish Remository Categories 3.20c shortly with that change.
As for Quickdown, I'm afraid that it is just a Mambo restriction that mambots are only invoked for material that is handled by the content component, and that does not include custom modules. You can, of course, do it the hard way - after all Quickdown is just a nice easy way to generate HTML and you can hard code it if you're stuck.
