ASCOOS CMS

This package can display the latest package from PHPClasses.

It provides a block component for the Ascoos CMS that can pull the list of the latest packages published on the PHP Classes site.

The block component can display the list of packages on a site page managed by the Ascoos CMS.

Through the cms management window, we can configure the block.

- Define the number of classes to display.

- Set a general access using the global username "bigfriend", or use the username that we declare for our login to phpclasses.org.

- Specify whether to display a column with the days that have passed since the class was posted.

- Finally, we will define the theme of the appearance of our block.
