IProperty Plugin Event Triggers

Plugins Overview

Plugins are used to extend the functionality of the base Intellectual Property product. There are several plugins included with the IProperty package, but if you need to add your own custom functionality, we have you covered.

IProperty uses custom plugin event triggers throughout the code, which allows you (as a developer), to extend functionality without modifying the core code. Using plugins is a safe way to add extra features and not worry about them being wiped out the next time your upgrade to a new release of IProperty! Below is a list of current plugin positions and the arguments they accept. If you have ideas for new positions, we’re happy to listen! Please post any thoughts in the support forums at http://extensions.thethinkery.net.
