Enxtension that work on whole flarum

Justoverclock

What if I want to create an extension that works on whole Flarum ? (Not only on indexpage, poststream or other)

There’s a correct way to do that?

Justoverclock Do you mean adding a component to every page? Since every page has its own view method, that could be challenging. Also, since the layouts are different, where would you put it?

askvortsov i need to run a function that works on every page, I need to declare this function on all extenders?

askvortsov

Justoverclock What should the function do? Also, remember that extenders are currently a backend mechanism.

askvortsov i don't know exactly what i'm going to create, i wait for inspiration, is just to know if can i have a function that works on whole forum, sorry if i'm not clear...

example could be a popup, i want to open a popup automatically after x second, i can do this easily...but what if a guest land on a pages that is not indexpage....but for example is a post...he can't see this unless he land on indexpage.

askvortsov

Justoverclock You could extend methods of Page?

askvortsov that is what i need to know, this extender can do this? great!

Examples of logic that happens on all pages:

Tracking a page view in fof/analytics https://github.com/FriendsOfFlarum/analytics/blob/master/js/src/forum/index.js

Opening a modal on page load in fof/terms https://github.com/FriendsOfFlarum/terms/blob/master/js/src/forum/addAcceptModal.js You can see there's an additional check for the homepage but that check can be removed or check for other pages.
