@raramuridesign Just released Pages 0.21. The Extension API is now considered stable and i also released the Joomla extension. You can find more info here: #738

Hello Matthew, sure, Pages has a complete extension API that allows you to integrate it quite easily with any Joomla extension.

For Seblod it would depend a bit how exactly you want to make the integration work. Most Joomla extensions do not really offer their own API so the approach I used so far is to query the database directly. This gives the most flexibility and performance, keeps the code quite simple and allows to make use of all the power that Pages offers out of the box.

What features exactly you need to get started?

This extension is not fully updated to the latest code changes, and improvements, I have asked Fotis to help out but so far he hasn't been able to spend time on it.

This extension has been deprecated due to a lack of interest. I asked the developers to help out but they haven't taken up on the request.
