Your module can get a "Configure" link in the back - office module list, and therefore let the user change some settings. This "Configure" link appears with addition of the getContent()
method to your main class. This is a standard PrestaShop method: its sole existence sends a message to the back - office, saying "there's a configuration page in this module, display the configuration link".
...
HelperForm
is one of the helper methods that were added with PrestaShop 1.5, along with HelperOptions
, HelperList
, HelperView
and HelperHelpAccess
. They enable you to generate standard HTML elements for the back - office as well as for module configuration pages.
You can get more information about Helper classes in the "Helpers" chapter of this developer guide, with a page dedicated to HelperForm
.
