模块
在Tiki中, a module is simply a box of content (which may or may not have "chrome" such as borders and title backgrounds). All side-column information of this site is presented through modules. The Modules Admin page is used to add modules to and manage modules in the module zones of a Tiki site.
Here's a screenshot:
After adding modules, you can re-order them, assign permissions to them (so they appear only for specific user groups ), or even allow them to be customized by specific users.
Note
尽管它们被称为“模块”，但几乎所有内容都包含在默认的Tiki安装中。没有额外的“附件”需要安装才能使用这些模块。

Modules vs. Plugins
The distinction between modules and wiki plugin is a little blurry. Technically speaking, modules are the containers and plugins are the content. However, the predefined modules included with the default Tiki installation contain plugins/content, but they are commonly called modules, too.
