Joomla! Modules are probably one of the most important types of extensions for a Joomla! CMS installation. Sure, plugins are nice, but modules actually display something on your website, and they're flexible enough to go just about anywhere. There are lots of modules available all over the web to do all sorts of things, and many of those are free. But what if you want a module to do something on your site and you can't find an existing Joomla! extension that will do it the way you want, or what if you're like me, and you just like doing things yourself, figuring stuff out and just generally getting your hands dirty. Well, don't worry, creating your own Joomla! Module is pretty easy, and this tutorial will guide you through the basics.

This article is designed to help budding Joomla! developers who want to learn how to write a plugin for Joomla! 1.5. The wonderful thing about an open source CMS (like Joomla!) is the extensibility.

In Joomla! there are several types of extensions - modules, plugins and components. This article will focus on creating a plugin. Let's dive in!

dcPagesApps Google Analytics Plugin is a simple plugin for anyone who wants to add Google Analytics Tracking Code to their Joomla! website. This plugin uses two parameters to allow users to modify the Google Analytic Tracking Code for use with a single domain (e.g. www), multiple sub-domains (e.g. www, m, wap, etc.) and multiple top-level domains (e.g. com, org, edu, etc.). It will also work across multiple domain names (using the multiple top-level domains options), but that would require the user to edit the links between the sites so that Google Analytics will track the interaction as one visit (that type of link edits are outside the scope of this plugin).
