  1. Softaculous

    in Extensions

    Posted

    If Blesta ends up being chosen for my situation then if there is not Softaculous module at that time I will write one.  If Installatron is that good I may also look into offering that to my customers as well and writing one for it :P

     

    I'll make it publicly avaialbe if/when I write it.  All depends on if everyone else in my organization will grab onto the idea of using Blesta :P

    That would be great.

  3. Mass Mail

    Ah just to let you know mate I don't work for Blesta ;)

     

    I know I have visited your site before and spoke to you direct on there.

    :)

     

    I'm in the middle of spec'ing this out. It may be a good time to revisit and discuss any "must have" features.

     

    I think that is a great idear. Also I would be happy to beta test if needed to test and also provide services.

  4. Mass Mail

    I see your point,

     

    by the way if you export your customer table from the database, you could after that mass email using your provider/solutions

     

    Thanks and I know but when your client list is always updating it makes it more of a hassle then what it would be like to message direct from blesta. Look at all the other billing systems like whmcs, hostbill, clientexec, phpcoin and few others they all have a way to message from the billing script. I was was hostbill when they started they were cheap very enhanced but simple software. The only reason for leaving was staff attitude and the fact they made it hard for small reseller clients to afford it.

     

    I know it's coming shortly, it won't be long after 3.5 but I don't know what the guys have planned for the next version.

    Thats great, i know you guys are busy and have lots to do but I do beleave that there are some features that should be added with out question and made a piority to others exspecialy when it realy is only a small change to blesta.

     

    Blesta to mailchimp. Very easy to import. Just a little phpmadmin work and you got your mass mail plugin : P

    I have 2 businesses to run and really don't have the time. Also like I said before you would have to keep importing the new clients and plus really you should have there permission to add to a mailing list software hence the reason why most scripts have a aopt out option but admin has a choice to override if it is a importent announcement.

     

    You have a lot of alternatives, MassMail its not an excuse to not buy Blesta :) you still can send emails to clients, only cannot sellect them all ad send one email to all at the same time, but for that you have a lot of alternatives:

    Area anything else missing on Blesta? only MassMailler mathers?

     

    ;)

     

    No there is a list of features I would love to see on blesta and not having mass mail will not stop me using blesta as our own billing system as well are provider, the only issue I have had in the past that made me move away for a while was the module bugs. But they seem to be fixed now.

  5. Mass Mailer Plugin.. When?

    in Feature Requests

    Posted

    Blesta has 3 developers there's 24 hours a day and they work 8am - 3pm/4pm PST that's 8/9 hours a day, they work 5 days a week, so that's 40/45 hours a week, and they can't code everything securely and stable if they have to do all these features and improvements etc. They would love to do it all that I'm aware but it's impossible. That's why they have a to-do list based on difficulty points.

    People want a domain manager, some people want a mass mail feature, some want improved modules like NameCheap to support SSLs, or SolusVM so it works with configurable options, some want improvements to cPanel and InterWorx... there's a lot to do.

     

    I agree but Mass Mail is most needed to communicate with our customers with updates and deals with out having to get them to sign up to some other form of news letter ect.

     

    I would not think it would take long to long to impliment a simple mass mail to start with.

  9. Buycpanel Addon Error

    in Bugs

    Posted

    There is a issue with the buycPanel module where when your buying a vps, and you select a buycPanel addon like rvsitebuilder it then asks on the next page for domain and ip. the domain is fine but the IP won't be known until the vps is purchase and due to this they can not continue the order.
