mcraedesigns Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 Nice Joomla integration. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mojowill Posted March 31, 2009 Share Posted March 31, 2009 nice integration however I wouldn't have a web design company site using a template, your website should really show off your own design skills not someone elses http://www.joomlart.com/templates_club/club_portfolio/ja_edenite.html also if you are gong to use a CMS and a template you might want to consider at least changing the favicon 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markholland8 Posted March 31, 2009 Author Share Posted March 31, 2009 The reason i have used a template is to get the site up faster i have a template i'm working on but it will take me a few more weeks to get the desired effect. This is a great template and to be honest anyone that comes to the site probably would be none the wiser. 2-3 Weeks and the new template will be finished but a very similar layout due to the fact "I Like it" Thanks for your comments.

dotcom22 Posted April 1, 2009 Share Posted April 1, 2009 Really really great... The first real and well done Joomla + Whmcs integration...Congratulation I like so much... Can you point me to how you do that ? You work with Smarty variable ? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markholland8 Posted April 1, 2009 Author Share Posted April 1, 2009 basically, i do not know the smarty at all, what i did is strip down the WHMCS template so it was just the tables then integrated the joomla header code. Then i did the same with the footer and thats it. I still have lots of tweaking to do but its almost there. Mark 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markholland8 Posted April 5, 2009 Author Share Posted April 5, 2009 Ok so things are going well. Main Site; http://159webdesign.com Client Area; http://159webdesign.com/billing Hosting Packages; http://159webdesign.com/billing/hosting.php The Hosting area uses TS Hosting's "Plan Comparison" which is a great Mod and i would highly recomend it. Just got to check links and speelcheck really and some formating issues apart from that im really pleased with its clean sleet look. It is mny first integration and i use Joomla for my main site and below i have given you a few tips. To create the client are; 1. Copy the template you want to use and name it something different and make sure its in the template file and selected in "general settings" 2. Find the headercode for your Joomla template and place this in your template "header.tpl" TIP; Use firefox with the web developer add-on then you can use the source code viewer Between <head> all the text in here </head> Thats what you need to transfer 3. Same with the footer but i would just copy your footer code as html and add it that way to the "footer.tpl" 4. In joomla create a new mod "Custom Mod" and place your login code in there (available form WHMCS integration code section) This is a basis idea and more complicatid templates can be harder to implement but this is all i did and then tweaked it and thats it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotcom22 Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 thank for tips...Your integration look very nice also because you have choose same color and aspect for your whmcs then your joomla..I imagine you have also modified css file of whmcs for get this result...?? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mylove4life Posted April 7, 2009 Share Posted April 7, 2009 looks like IE 8 screws up the bar, when going over them they never retract. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markholland8 Posted April 7, 2009 Author Share Posted April 7, 2009 No idea why this is happening i will work on this. Good Old Microsoft IE. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markholland8 Posted April 8, 2009 Author Share Posted April 8, 2009 Big Bug: for some reason the drop downs don't retract in internet explorer but do in firefox, anyone got any ideas why this might be. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dotcom22 Posted April 9, 2009 Share Posted April 9, 2009 Maybe a CSS issue or javascript problem (with motools?).....Is better to ask your template provider about that...I don't have IE8 so I can not test....It is strange because IE8 are announced with 20% more WC3 compliant then any other version... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
markholland8 Posted April 9, 2009 Author Share Posted April 9, 2009 The rest of the site is fine the joomla bit, its just the whmcs template i created it must not be linked properly i cant see for looking. Mark 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markholland8 Posted April 11, 2009 Author Share Posted April 11, 2009 At Last well not rally still need to test but i have managed to get my custom template working in whmcs Still no drop downs due to Internet Explorer issues but to be honest my clients only come to this page to pay so i will leave it for now. Please any comments would be appreciated. Mark Holland 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Redsign Posted April 11, 2009 Share Posted April 11, 2009 Still no drop downs due to Internet Explorer issues but to be honest my clients only come to this page to pay so i will leave it for now. I don't have IE8 to test, but could you try removing all the li:hover styles from the style sheets? I've got a feeling it might be due to that, however I could be completely wrong 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
redrat Posted April 12, 2009 Share Posted April 12, 2009 Seems to work well in IE8x Incidentally, what is the name of that very nice tag cloud? Works brilliantly. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
