System hooks

Seotoaster system hooks - special methods you can use in your plugin for closer integration with the system. Below you will find the list of hooks and an explanation of what they are doing

• beforeController hook - public method which will be executed before! any Seotoaster’s controller will be launched. 

  public function beforeController() {
      // this code will be executed before the controller
  }
  

• afterController hook - public method which will be executed after! any Seotoaster’s controller. 

  public function afterController() {
      // this code will be executed after the controller
  }

• beforeRouter hook - public method which will be executed before Seotoaster’s router

  public function beforeRouter() {
      // this code will be executed before the router
  }

• _injectContent hook - protected method whIch is used to inject plugin's content into the Seotoaster’s layout

  $this->_injectContent('This content will be injected into the layout')

• getWidgetMakerContent hook - allows your plugin to inject its own section to the Seotoaster’s widget maker. Very useful hook if your plugin (or plugin’s widget) has a lot of options. This hook should return an associative array formated as following:

  public static function getWidgetMakerContent() {
          $websiteHelper = Zend_Controller_Action_HelperBroker::getStaticHelper('website');
  
          return array(
              'title'   => 'Todo demo', // title of the plugin that will be visible in the widget maker
              'content' => 'Todo demo content', // content of the plugin's widget maker section
              'icons'   => array(
                  $websiteHelper->getUrl() . 'plugins/todo/web/images/todo.png', //icon that will be shown in front of the plugin name
              )
          );
      }
  

  Now go to your website, open any of the content editors and click on the Widgets tab. You should see something like this
   
• getTabContent hook - this hook allows you to add an additional tab to the content editor screen
• getEditorLink hook  - allows to add additional plugin link above the content editor, next to the editor trigger link
• getEditorTop hook - allow to add additional controls into the editor’s top header
