How to Add More Actions to an Existing Controller

[TheBigK]

But for a dynamic system where there might be dozens of classes attempting to extend the member controller, this is unworkable.

A lot of devs here here say that the XFCP is 'smart' trick! I wish to understand what'd be the problem with dozens of classes trying to extend the same member controller?

And how does the XFCP system solve this problem?

This is a good read to get an understanding of the XFCP system.

Thanks @NixFifty . I'm really thankful to @xfrocks for explaining it to me.

I hope I'll be able to do tutorials for newbie developers once I achieve some comfort level with XF.

Hello. Maybe it's a lame question, but where do I enable the development tab in admincp?

You'll need to enable debug mode, which you can do by adding this to /library/config.php:

$config['debug'] = true;

I recommend enabling debug mode just for your own IP address. See Kier's snippet in this post:

I would suggest developing on localhost, rather than a production site.
