I am creating a module and my urls to the module are not reachable.

It lands me on a 404 error.

myModuleTest/templates/mypage.tpl

where myModuleTest url = moduletest

so if i type in

www.mysite.com/moduletest/mypage

I get a 404 error.


I am able to reach the pages by typing in the long address but how do I get the routing system to work with my module?

Do I need a magic view for each one?

I don't think you can run module templates directly.
You can call module 'views' to do the job, which is preferable as templates usually need some smarty parameters to work with.

http://mysite.com/moduletest/mypage will take you to the function (in the module's index.php) view_myModuleTest_mypage()

So then, in that function -
function view_myModuleTest_mypage($_post, $_user, $_conf)
{
    $_tmp = array();
    // Do whatever needs to be done to build the template smarty parameters into the $_tmp array

    // parse the template
    return jrCore_parse_template("mypage.tpl", $_tmp, 'myModuleTest');

}
