1.......In TP 1, None of SMF/TP file modifying will be required if you use its module manager
2.......It is not necessary to HAVE a uninstall.php file
3.......Neither it is to modify Profile.php
4.......You forgot /Themes/default/languages/TPdummy.english.php
5.......It is not necessary to have a Image file.
6.......Whats the purpose of tp-dummy folder?

[KapaBG]

1.......well, todo in ver.1.0 too
2.......uninstall.php for clear all steps of Dummy but may be uninstall move to install
3.......Profile.php - TP have own settings for user
4.......TPdummy.english.php and russian + utf8
5.......Image file for right place to other featured modules. will be using in copyright tab for example
6.......tp-dummy folder for right place and right permission

comments welcome! and code or attach

2........Uninstall.php is not always necessary, since sometimes people uninstall for upgrading or just cleaning.
3........It depends on what kind of Module you are making, not that it will be always required
4........What!! What about other languages :p
5........Well, It depends as you said, same with 6.

One not from your code.
I dont think it's appropiate for you to use this sites name as author for your code.
I rather see your own name and site as it's you that make this code and not this community.

We stand for our stuff and you for your stuff.

[KapaBG]

G6, right. but author not want a make private support removed

[Dragooon]

Now that you know the in and out, why not make a good Module out of it?
