Recommend manual SugarCRM for developer - sugarcrm

I'm an intern developer in a bank. Currently I develop custom things in SugarCRM. But I can't find a good manual about customization in SugarCRM ver. 6.5+.

You could check out the SugarCRM resources at https://university.sugarcrm.com/. Register and look through the site and you'll find webinars and videos on various aspects of SugarCRM, including its customization. It might help make interpreting the developer docs a bit easier. Note however the materials will be biased towards SugarCRM 7.

If you are looking for custom development of modules in SugarCRM.
Then there are so many online materials you can find but the problem is how good they are? In my opinion, following links have good content to read and understand.

Alfresco workflow behaviour documentation

I'm learning how to develop advanced workflow in Alfresco and I find things like bpm_assignee, bpm_workflowDueDate, taskInstance, initiator and so on in custom behaviour JavaScript API code examples but I can't find documentation for it.
Can somebody point me to the right direction?
In addition to the wiki page Tahir cited...
The official documentation on Alfresco workflows lives here for Alfresco 4:
http://docs.alfresco.com/4.0/topic/com.alfresco.enterprise.doc/topics/wf-howto.html
And here for Alfresco 3.4:
http://docs.alfresco.com/3.4/topic/com.alfresco.Enterprise_3_4_0.doc/topics/wf-howto.html
You may also be interested in an advanced workflow tutorial. This one is for Alfresco 4 and uses Activiti:

This one uses older versions of Alfresco and jBPM:

Zend Framework Scaffolding Administration Panel

Is there any crud scaffolding module/framework (like ATK framework) that can be integrated into a Zend Framework based website?
If not... what Zend Framework CMS would you consider? I've googled a lot but didn't find much:
Centurion
Pimcore
TomatoCMS
From documentation Centurion looked easy to learn... what's your opinion?
Thanks.
Although scaffolding is not is main propose, ZFDatagrid http://code.google.com/p/zfdatagrid has the ability to do that (disclosure: I'm the project owner ).
You can check some demos here:
Basic listing
Simple CRUD operations
Bulk operations
Also check the Project page
regards,
Here is the closest solution to my problem: ZFCore opensource CMF based on Zend Framework
http://code.google.com/p/zfcore/
I spent the last 48h reviewing a few opensource CMF based on Zend Framework: during my googling Centurion and Digitalus was spotting everywhere but it looks like are not mantained anymore and anyway even if they look professional and referenced... it was a pain getting them up and running (and Centurion appeared to hang sometimes).
I excluded TomatoCMS, PimCore and Magento becouse I wanted a medium size system completely customizable.
ZFCore is an open source CMF mantained by Anton Shevchuk and other 17 commiters.
It looks very nice and fairly easy to understand besides all the documentation is russian (thanks chrome for translating).
If anyone has a valid alternative, please tell me.
Thanks.
Difficult to have something similar to ATK with an MVC framework.
If you use Zend_Db and ZF >1.11 you might find this useful http://github.com/elvisciotti/zf1-crud

what cms that can support more than one language?

One of my clients asked me to integrate an open source CMS in her website.The challenge I have right now is that she wants the website to be bilingual. is there any cms that implements this feature? The content on each page should be displayed either in english or french and no automation translation(like google's or babel fish). only static content should be held in language configuration files.
Thanks for any help or idea.
N2CMS can do that. It supports multi-sites on one installation, multi-language, templating, MVC. And it is a very developer-friendly, developed in C#.
http://n2cms.com
http://n2cms.codeplex.com/
Drupal, besides being considered the best php-based open source CMS, has multilingual support
"Internationalization: Build Multilingual Sites"
http://drupal.org/node/133977
Umbraco does this, is FOSS and based on .NET.
http://umbraco.org/
go for joomla it support multi lingual , use joom fish component
According to one of its FAQ's, Plone, running the LinguaPlone add-on can do this, if I understand your question correctly.
MODXCMS.com does enable you to use lots of different languages on the same site!
They call it YAMS - Yet Another Multilingual Solution ---
about YAMS on the MODX Forums
I say go with MODx CMS coupled with YAMS. Choose the Evolution release, not the Revolution. I just installed the YAMS and it's working like a charm.
The learning curve maybe a bit steep but it's worth every hour I spent learning it.
Are you looking for a translation memory/CMS or a CMS that integrates with a TM?
How many languages are you looking to support?
Any of the complicated ones? (HAT, for example)

mojoPortal OR Umbraco?

I have been look around for Free/Open Source ASP.NET CMS / Portal systems for a while now, and have seived it down to two different ones.
Umbraco - http://umbraco.org
mojoPortal - http://www.mojoportal.com
Both look excellent and have different appealing features, but I am looking for people who have used both and which one you went with and why??
I actually went for Umbraco in the end and would never look back, its incredibly easy to install and use
To install you can use the web platform installer to install it and the AMAZING amount of free projects you can EASILY install with a couple of clicks make it by far the best CMS out there
http://our.umbraco.org/projects
If you are unsure where to start have a read of this
http://www.blogfodder.co.uk/post/A-Complete-Newbies-Guide-To-Umbraco-CMS.aspx
I tried Umbraco and it is not for the timid. I feel I'm a fairly technical person, Sr. Web Developer... and after several hours I gave up.
MojoPortal just works.
It has its flaws, but the simple fact that it just works means it wins.
I used Kentico, DNN, Sitecore, Joomla, CMS Made Simple (Yes admittedly not mojoPortal). Umbraco is by far the most powerful if you are after a highly customised and highly specified solution. Linq2Umbraco just seals the deal.
However, if you are after idiot proof CMS with everything built in, and your biggest concern is to look for check boxes to enable forum/blogs/whatever other joke modules/bells and whistles/etc. Umbraco isn't for you. IMO Kentico/DNN are the ones.
Edit - And 3 years later, I've used SharePoint, epiServer, SiteFinity as well.
Umbraco still wins hands down.
mojoPortal seems easier to use to me and it works even with javascript disabled like using noscript browser plugin. Seems more care of accessibility has been taken using progressive enhancement javascript techniques whereas you can't manage your site at all with javascript disabled using Umbraco.
I haven't tried mojoPortal, but I love Umbraco.
Things I like:
Clean code
Uses XSLT, python, or .NET to extend
Awesome community support
Tutorial videos for easy learning
Admin area is extensible
Good plug-in projects
But really its because I can use it for both small and large projects easily.

plug-in for MOODLE

How can i add a plug-in that i developed in MOODLE, considering the fact that MOODLE is an open source project?
Here is the documentation on installing contributed modules to moodle. You have to be approved before your plugins are available to everybody. If you wanted to get your plugin added as a core component, you should contact the development team. Make sure you follow the guidelines for your contributed code.
Check the guidelines for contributed code. They should include everything you need to know about contributing to the moodle project. They describe that you have to submit it on their bugtracker, etc. -- for further question, I suggest you contact the moodle people directly.
The code checker plug in developed by the Open University (moodle.org/plugins/view.php?plugin=local_codechecker) is an invaluable tool for anyone hoping to contribute an extension to Moodle and incorporates general coding good practice.
I would recommend using this for any software you are planning to share with other Moodle users and using the forums at moodle.org to get some feedback on beta versions and your concept while developing your plug-in.
Moodle contributes code guidelines.
http://docs.moodle.org/dev/Guidelines_for_contributed_code#How_to_submit_code
Read the How to request that your code be tested/reviewed section.
Pay particular attention to following the moodle API
