XOOPS Installer Modules Installation

Select “Yes” to install a module. You may select none, any or all modules.

These are the modules included with a standard XOOPS 2.7.0 install.

  • Private Messaging - enhanced private messaging between users
  • User Profile - enhanced/custom user profiles
  • Protector - enhanced site security, spam controls and attack mitigation
  • DebugBar - a development and staging debug toolbar based on Symfony VarDumper; useful for module developers and for diagnosing production issues, but usually not needed on a public-facing live site

The System module is always installed and is not listed here as an option.

You can add modules to the modules directory when uploading the XOOPS files before starting the install, and they will also be available in this step.

All XOOPS sites should install the Protector module.
