Social Engine PHP Hooks

Banner of the announcement at SocialEngine.com.

Since the Social Engine team decided not to retire SEPHP. I’m republishing the SEPHP guides I wrote years ago. Beginning with a list of SEPHP hooks.

Here is a complete list of SEPHP hooks and some information about each of them. Most of the names are self explanatory but you may need to examine when, where or how the event is fired and what payload it contains.

• onAuthorizationLevelDeleteBefore — never fired in a default Social Engine PHP install. There is a hook defined in the Payment module’s manifest and a handler in Payment/Plugin/Core.php
• onFieldsValuesSave — fired in application/modules/Fields/Form/Standard.php
• onItemDeleteBefore and onItemDeleteAfter — fired in application/modules/Core/Model/Item/Abstract.php
• onRenderLayoutAdmin — Fired in application/modules/Core/layouts/scripts/admin-simple.tpl
