0 kg4mxz Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I believe it can be done with mod_layout w/ apache... what you would do is set it to force ads on certain vhosts or directories (correct me if I'm wrong) and then somehow have this list updated automatically with the list of accounts based off of the 'free' package. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Will this give me control via the Admin Panel like iPanel does? Will something like that be a full mod of WHMCS? Wonder if they will do that sometime. Having this option is great because the ads on free accounts can pay for your WHMCS if you have the monthly plan. If you got the license, then its extra cash in your pocket for doing nothing. Hope WHMCS is listening. haha 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Okay, I now have WHMCS! Woo Hoo! Now how do I go about getting this apache mod_layout?? Anyone do this yet? and if so, is there a tutorial or manual or something? I want this setup ASAP. Thanx! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 SRobinson Posted March 29, 2008 Share Posted March 29, 2008 Ive found tutorials on settings mod_layout to work on pre-defined directories. Any ideas on how this could be integrated into WHMCS? I suppose if it was an addon script you could simply run the script, list all accounts which use the package name "Free" then add the information to the config file for apache mod_layout.. Infact, i may have a go at that now because in my head that didnt sound extremly complicated Scott 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

0 SRobinson Posted March 31, 2008 Share Posted March 31, 2008 A) Follow this information here to install http://www.aloke.info/2006/05/31/how-to-install-mod_layout-on-cpanel-server/ B) Edit /etc/httpd/conf/httpd.conf Simply put, adding this would work <Directory "/home/mer10001"> AddOutputFilterByType LAYOUT text/html LayoutFooter "<P> This is the tail end of things<P>" LayoutHeader "<P> This is the beginning of things<P>" </Directory> Where /home/mer10001 is the directory you want the header and footer to appear.

0 Nexxterra Posted April 5, 2008 Share Posted April 5, 2008 I am looking for this same mod. I want it because I want the users to have the ability to upgrade, buy domains etc. Ipanel now works with Directadmin but after years of refinement, there is no way I am giving up this billing system. So if anyone gets a mod working and wants to offer it as a paid mod... Pm me or Post and I will fine you! Paul PS Matt, new feature??? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
