WP Pindle for Joomla

Overview

The project aims to develop a Joomla extension 3.x that synchronizes events from the Pindle service via API and imports the data into Joomla articles. This extension will create categories, assign images, and handle all necessary data for each event post.The events will be listed along with pagination. Clicking on an event will display its details page, dynamically generated based on query parameters. This functionality will be encapsulated within a Joomla module, allowing easy embedding into articles or other content types. Admins can configure the module settings, including API key and other attributes.

  • Integrating with the Pindle service API to synchronize events data with Joomla articles.
