Hey, Thanks for that, It's a good start. The reason i want to separate the admin from the other modules is because i will have lots of controllers for each module, Each module will have several layouts, each one has to load different public resources from the public folder so it's important for me to make a complex modeler structure so switching layouts, views, resources, controllers separation and adding more modules at a later time will be easier.
Since there are no resources about it, You need to dig trough the PHP files of the ZF to figure out how the ZF works with modules step-by-step that sometimes takes time (too much time). I am still looking to get this done the way i showed above, If your book will cover that area as well then you got yourself your first buyer and reader. Thanks.
