semaj Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 Hello, I was woundering if i could get my whmcs to create forums on order, For example (if an order is placed for SMF, PHP, IPB) bored then an account would be created with the correct board installed and if so how would i go about setting the up? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPH Posted April 9, 2008 Share Posted April 9, 2008 depending upon your server type. If it's a cpanel server you could make api calls using the action hooks upon setup. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bear Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 While it would be relatively simple to copy the forum files into the directory, I'm not so sure it would be possible (or wise) to be using it to set up the necessary databases automatically. They would likely have a generic db name and password , setting it up for exploit, and way too much can go wrong to be creating DB's in this manner. The choice is yours, but I wouldn't do it, personally. Just my 2 cents. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PPH Posted April 10, 2008 Share Posted April 10, 2008 Research it in the cpanel forums as there are others trying to do the same thing with auto setting up db driven websites. I think someone even offers a paid solution for it which sounds like might be you best solution at this point. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
