Where to find documentation

Is there any documentation that really discusses the classes and calls used in Dolphin 7.1? Anything that would help a developer not experienced with Dolphin in creating custom pages and/or modules?

I have been looking through this site (boonex.com) and google search results and have not yet found any documentation that really defines the actual structure of the Dolphin system in a manner to understand it without days of piecing together snippets here and there.

Have a customer that wants to have a few custom modules for his existing Dolphin 7.1 site. I have downloaded the "trial" copy (7.1) and have attempted the "Bloggie" tutorial which will not install.

My dev server is Ubuntu 13, Apache 2.2.22, PHP 5.4.9.

The "Creating Your First Dolphin Module" relies upon the installation of the Module. I experience the following error message when I attempted to install this module as directed: "Installation of Bloggie Failed -- Check the Dolphin version for compatibility: The module is not compatible with your version of Dolphin script". I have note yet been able to identify where the documentation would be to define what it is looking for 

I would rather utilize some good documentation to understand the structure Boonex has incorporated than having to reverse engineer thousands of lines of code... 

Can anyone offer some direction on where to obtain pertinent documentation?

Thank you. 

Steven

Boonex has not updated a lot of the things for 7.1.x series of Dolphin.  To change the version for the bloggie module, you look in install/config.php of the module

Realise the template system for 7.1 is completely different than for 7.0.9

I don't think that is a up to date list of classes and functions for Dolphin but supposedly it is either being done or is in the "Will be done".

thank you for this link. Yes I had looked at this also. I was hoping to find something more intuitive than having to hunt through each class. i.e. something like this or this. Looks like a lot of reading to piece together how this system works.

thank you. Actually by your reference I found by changing the 'compatible_with' to '7.1.x' it would allow it to install. 

Thank you both for the information and assistance.
