Customise Content
NB: Ensure you read the page on skinning IXP Manager before proceeding with this page.
NB: Ensure you have fully completed / edited / read the application/configs/application.ini
file and set your identity information.
In the below, we assume you are in the application/views
directory and that you have created a skin folder called _skins/myskin
.
Once you have IXP Manager set up and running, you need to customise various pieces of content to make it suitable for your IXP / to de-INEX-ify it.
If at all possible, try to not change the header and menus. There are already options to give these custom content if necessary and editing them will make upgrading difficult.
The footer can be edited by:
cp footer-content.phtml _skins/myskin
vi _skins/myskin/footer-content.phtml
INEX has invested a lot of time, money and effort over the years to build IXP Manager into the tool it is. Please leave a reference crediting us in the footer.
If you wish to include a static documentation menu in your IXP Manager, then:
cp header-documentation.phtml _skins/myskin/header-documentation.phtml
vi _skins/myskin/header-documentation.phtml
If you don't want any documentation menu, copy the above file and empty it. But please consider placing a link to the About page in the footer or elsewhere.
If you want a Staff Links menu (visible to admins only) then:
cp staff-links.phtml _skins/myskin/staff-links.phtml
vi _skins/myskin/staff-links.phtml
Again, if you don't want any staff links menu, copy the above file and empty it.
When you add a new customer, you can send them a welcome email (via a dropdown in the top right of the customer over page). To set the content of this:
mkdir -p _skins/myskin/customer/email
cp customer/email/welcome-email.phtml _skins/myskin/customer/email
vi _skins/myskin/customer/email/welcome-email.phtml
If you want a more featured template to work off, use INEX's:
cp _skins/inex/customer/email/welcome-email.phtml _skins/myskin/customer/email
When a new user is added by an ADMIN or a CUSTADMIN, they are sent a welcome email with details on IXP Manager any any additional information your wish to provide. Set this up by:
mkdir -p _skins/myskin/user/email/html
cp user/email/html/welcome.phtml _skins/myskin/user/email/html
vi _skins/myskin/user/email/html/welcome.phtml
Again, if you want a more featured template to work off, use INEX's:
cp _skins/inex/user/email/html/welcome.phtml _skins/myskin/user/email/html/
