Yeah people have, You have Logicboxes Extended (Reloaded) by Naja7host, you have SolusVM Extended by Virtovo & cPanel Extended which ModulesGarden did but gave it Blesta. They all have special extras which can be used to replace the default ones.
You are misunderstanding.
For example, a wordpress plugin could add Google maps to a page without changing the Wordpress core or theme files. Its only function is to embed a map in to a page.
A blesta plugin could be made to do something like turn on and off VAT on the form without having to change the core or add that feature to the core files.
Back in that day there was something called an "include" that would include code from from a file that was not part of the originl framework. Dreamweaver may even still use includes.
-
well it's going to be part of billing plugin, if you don't install it, it won't be included, but yeah there are plugins made for stuff like that.
I'm talking about expanding that concept.
After the billing plugin is installed more features can be added or taken away. IOW make Blesta run more like Joomla, or Wordpress. It is remarkable how each Wordpress or Joomla site can be made different with the use of seperate plugins that are easily turned on and off, or deleted and added.
Blesta is already superior, but could be made more-so with the use if individual feature plugins. Some of them can be commerical, some for free. They can be community supported or Blesta sponsored.

The reason why i switched to Blesta was because it is not bloated. It had a modern and easy to use management console with the exact features I thought were needed.
Therefore, rather than have hundreds of new feature requests being added to the core would it not be better to make some of these additional new features as seperate modules that can be added as needed?
For instance, if someone wants to have a feature that automatically deletes services after they have been suspended for 90 days, they can download a small plugin giving them that feature. (this is just an example)
Thoughts everyone?

You can use 5.1, 5.2, 5.3, 5.4 with the default files.... use the hotfix-5.5 folder contents to overwrite the licensing files... This will allow you to use Blesta on 5.5, 5.6, 5.x
Whatever Ioncube supports: https://twitter.com/Licensecart/status/481556538184986625
I applied the hot fix once, but since then i have upgraded Blesta to the new beta.
Does the hotfix have to be applied again after ungrading to the newest version of Blesta beta? Or has it already been added to the newst version?
-
I simply propose supporting the feature set of 5.3 and higher (at least 5.3), has supporting something that was discontinued 8 years ago to this day does make development for it more difficult than it should.
I do not understand.
I run 5.4.31. Blesta works fine.

I've never heard of anyone confusing a Tax ID with a SSN, but I suppose anything's possible. Just another reason to have optional field support for you to set what you require.
Well, the lable says
<label for="tax_id">Tax ID/VATIN</label>
Many would not confuse Tax ID number with SSN. But many would. Here is a tread asking that very question:
"I was going to sign up for pepperjam and it wanted my tax id number. Isn't that my social security number? Thanks."
"The IRS, or Internal Revenue Service, keeps track of the money earned by individuals and businesses in the United States. It tracks income by an identifying number, typically your Social Security number -- a number assigned to individuals -- or Federal Tax ID number, also called an Employer Identification Number (EIN) -- assigned to businesses or organizations."
People who do not own a business are use to using their SSN as a Tax ID on Government forms. So there is where some confusion take place.
But like you said, Blesta already has a plan to make it optional.

We are intending to extend the portal plugin into a more fully featured CMS. Adding additional links to the navigation, even if they link to external content (ie your existing website) would be best suited for this plugin most likely. You could create additional pages and enter the content in a WYSIWYG editor in Blesta, or link those pages to external content.
I like this idea better. Sticking as close to the original code without too many changes is always best.
-
You don't need 777 permissions. If Blesta already runs fine and you can upload files to it then you probably won't need to change anything. Depending on your server configuration file permissions of 644 or even 640 will be enough.
OK thanks. I'll try this soon.
I have it downloaded. -
I like the idea. But I don't like having to set some file permissions 777
-
This looks great.
the only thing that I do not like is having to set some file permissions 777

To use vQmod insert in the template:
$var = 'Remove client tax ID field';
correct?
-
IMHO the problem is with the wording. If the label said: VATAN (where applicable),I don't think many users would have a problem with it.
People in America and other places use their social security number as a "Tax ID". Users think we are asking for their social security number to register. I have never been asked to gave my social security number to buy something on the Internet. Ebay, Amazon, none of them ask for a tax-id or SSN to make a purchase.
No one wants to list their social security number unless it is an absolutely necessary. Web-hosting does not qualify as "needing to know" someone's social security number.
Some users could misunderstand the form and think we are scamming them just to get their financial information.
-
Is something like this you want? http://www.blesta.com/forums/index.php?/topic/3031-blesta-bookmarks-plugin-comming-really-soon-p/?hl=blesta+bookmarks
We have almost done, just waiting fot Blesta 3.3 to go stable to release it
This is good too. But I'm talking about a menu on the user side.
-
Exactly. A public facing menu that matches the main website.I think what wfitg is referring to is a menu on the client side header, which you can add or remove items from in the admin panel. Basicly what I have on my site: https://account.orangehost.co.nz but customisable.
I had installed a jQuery responsive menu in the blesta template at the top, but it vanished.
-
I would like to suggest a menu plugin for Blesta. It would be used to help clients navigate outside web pages. For instance, the menu could allow clients to return to the home page of a Wordpress, or go to the Wordpress contact page, etc...
-
I think the Blesta coloring scheme works nice for matching something like a Wordpress Installation. That is what I have done.
However, it would also be nice to only integrate a Wordpress Menu in to the Blesta. This way clients can navigate back to specific pages on the website too.
When you have time, can you make a tutorial on that?
-
So you want to make your blesta installation to look like your website?Hope this is a easier tut to follow, I've tried to make it as simple as I can. Good luck customizing your Blesta.
This is a GREAT tutorial mate!
Thanks for making this. I'm going to try it

I did modify it, but can restore it.
I recently asked for a Belesta developer licence so I can run a local copy. I plan to tinker around with it. Learn my way around and install NetBeans
Thanks for this great example
-
It's got far to many features to list and is very stable, fast and easy to use. https://netbeans.org/features/php/
Thanks! I'll check this out soon
-
The logo changes I mentioned above work fine for me. Did you remember to update the .logo class?
No, but I am still learning. Some of this is new territory for me

For those who like to keep everything updated and patched:
Security Fix: Swiftmailer 5.2.1 released
These days Spammers troll the Internet looking for venerabilities.

Did'nt work, but thanks.
However, adding this did, I used it as a workaround, for those people searching:
structure.pt
<a href="index.html">
<img src="https://wfitg.com/img/small-logo3.png" alt="logo" class="emailImage" />
</a>
the css:
@media only screen and (max-width: 480px)
{
.emailImage{
height:auto !important;
max-width:600px !important;
width: 100% !important;
}
}
New Features For Blesta
in The Lounge
Posted
Exactly. And that is what I am suggesting.
Rather than add more and more features to the Blesta core (and make Blesta bloated like the others), just make a simple plugin to do that one feature. That way the people who do not need that feature do not have to add it to their blesta installation.
This would keep Blesta light weight.
