Ok, so I have been commenting on other peoples designs, now its time to finally put live the new version of outhost.eu.

 

Using the J!WHMCS integrator and in my humble opinion it works, but please let me know what you think.

 

The site is not 100% complete yet as I am waiting to launch certain parts of the site.

Yes i agree very nice design indeed. May want to check your SSL server mind as its not working i got a 404 error when it tried to pass through the SSL server.

 

Thanks, I am aware of an issue with SSL, have just moved the site onto its new private server and havent gotten round to changing the SSL

Hi Mark, site looks good.

 

I'm interested in your use of the J!WHMCS component.

 

By using this component do you not need to change the WHMCS templates to match Joomla's template?

 

I'm in the process of installing a new Joomla template and was about to update the WHMCS template to match - this component appears to do it for you.

 

How do you control where the WHMCS content is displayed on the page? (is this called from within an article?).

 

Thanks

Paul.

you do have to make some slight changes to WHMCS for this to work. It is the complete WHMCS system, not called within an article or wrapper. Have a look at http://forum.whmcs.com/showthread.php?t=24011 and it will explain all. This is not a custom integration I have made, rather a product that i purchased that does it for you.

 

If any host is going to use Joomla and WHMCS then you really should be using this plugin as it makes it so much simpler its unreal.

I'm aware of some links not relating to correct locations, still ironing out some kinks in the system, also the fact that VPS and Dedi's are not launched yet, (hopefully this week)

I really do like your theme. Very nice and easy on the eye. Not sure if you have noticed this; but some URLs on the footer look like this:

yeah, its because of using an anchor and that seems to be how Joomla is pulling it, looking to do more from an SEO point. Although the site is live it is still a Work In Progress.

 

Please keep the thoughts coming, It has taken me a long time to settle on a design that I am 100% happy with and its very encouraging to here other people like it as well.

Just one little thing, although one I see SO many times, change the side_menu id colour in the whmcs css, that terrible #EFF5FF does not fit your site design at all.

 

Also, not really a criticism of design as its your business, but personally I would fill the knowledgebase a bit if your site is now live.

To see a host with a blank KB kinda says either no experience, which I doubt, or cant be bothered to include it.

 

I think its better to remove (comment out) the link than to display a blank KB to potential customers, once you have some content in it display the link again.
