Hi Again,
After manually creating some modules I found they do not appear when I rebuild and check the Installed Modules page.

So next I've installed Next-SDK and get the error below when I run it from the domain URL....

Error: Server API must be CLI!

So then.... I've tried to do it using Putty now and am having no luck their either Are there any comprehensive instructions on this?

Tad frustrated and on a too tight a timeline to keep figuring everything out... I've never had to ask so many questions!

While the knowledge base is getting completed, your assistance here is super appreciated. Thanks!

Ah sorted!! I was executing it in Putty from the wrong place.

(note: my /next-sdk folder is located in my public_html)

For others:
1.Log into putty as root
2. navigate to the public html folder (command shows root@skc [home/yourpath/public_html] #)
3. Type in the following to execute ./next-sdk/devkit/macros/create-module.php --module=MyName\\SidebarMenu

and it worked! yay!

Glad you got it sorted out. I have a tutorial on creating a custom skin/ module on my site: http://xcartguru.com/tutorials/x-cart-5-tutorials/building-a-custom-skin-in-x-cart-5/

It may help you.

Thanks Mike! Between your tutorial and Tony's I'm pretty much cooking with gas
