0 MACscr Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 you mean the client area in the joomla site layout? That should be easy. Its not different than integrating any other html into joomla. As far as login sharing, thats different. I really dont see why you would want to do that though. Ive been running cms's and developing with them for 5 years now and even I dont see a need for this. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 P Zero Posted August 22, 2006 Author Share Posted August 22, 2006 Yeah, I mean just to be able to put it in the joomla 'wrapper' feature or something. I am planning to build our new site using joomla, so the less experienced of our staff can easily add content, etc. I think what I may do though is to just put WHMCS on a subdomain and make it look like the joomla site. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 MACscr Posted August 22, 2006 Share Posted August 22, 2006 good idea =P Dont forget SSL too. I think im going to smack the next person i see setup whmcs without ssl. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 columbusgeek Posted January 3, 2007 Share Posted January 3, 2007 Not to bring this back form the dead or anything but I had had some relevant comments I think. I have seen integrations into Joomla via the wrapper system and it works accetable. I have even done it myself with medicore results There are some workarounds and some annoyances, but generally it's alright. In the showcase threads I see some people getting smashed for using WHMCS embedded in the wrapper. On the down side it won't index well inside the frame and it makes it a bitch to direct link to anything. Aside from slapping a head and footer inside the WHMSC templates I don't see any other way if one has a complicated Joomla template. I myself have absolutly no desire to rebuild a entire Joomla site in html and would find it overkill. Maybe I will try to thickbox it in there. hrm... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 P Zero Posted January 3, 2007 Author Share Posted January 3, 2007 What I ended up doing was to use the joomla template i had already made and use the divs and css to form the header and footer files for whmcs. I had very successful results, although my main menu has to modified manually. Thats no great problem though. It took me about 3 or 4 hours to figure out the templating system and modify my joomla template to suit. You can see my integration at http://www.denovodigital.com . Its not finished yet, so it still looks a bit wishy washy, but I'm pleased with how its progressing. I would seriously reccommend adding the same doctype you have on your joomla template to the whmcs one. It makes css styling a hell of a lot easier. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
