Custom Interfaces, Views and Forms

You can use Traction's Skin Definition Language (SDL) to create custom views, forms or entire interfaces for specific applications or needs. This can be done as a set of views for a whole site or for a single page.

If new functions are required to produce your customization, you can create new SDK functions and SDL tags.

Once you create a custom interface, view or form, you can package it as a plug-in to make it available on our server, or share with others.

In this example, a custom status form helps organize and structure the reporting process. The form can be set as the default editor as well for this type of entry:
