To install several open-source PHP scripts, ResellersPanel now lets users simply choose a script, pick a desired host location where it will be installed and hit the install button.
(WEB HOST INDUSTRY REVIEW) — Private-label reseller web hosting automation solutions developer ResellersPanel (www.resellerspanel.com) has added the Elefante Toolbar to its control panel, allowing a direct installation of nearly 40 open-source PHP scripts on customers’ websites.
The Elefante Toolbar is available in the file manager, domain manager and sub-domain manager sections of clients’ Web Hosting Control Panel, according to ResellersPanel’s Friday announcement, and users only have to choose a script, pick a desired host location where it will be installed and simply hit the install button. It saves users’ time by automatically choosing a database, path, password, username, and other parameters.
Customers who want a more advanced script installation setup can use Elefante Toolbar’s Advanced Installation, which lets them handle all script configuration settings and specifications by themselves. They can, for instance, elect to manually install the script of their choice by specifying certain admin details in the installation wizard, such as domain name, database prefix and destination folder.
The available scripts are grouped into the following categories: Ad Management, Blog, Calendars, Classified Ads, Content Management, Customer Support, Discussion Boards, E-commerce, Groupware Tools, Guestbooks, Image Galleries, Web Hosting Tools and Wiki. With Joomla 1.0, Joomla 1.5, Moodle, WordPress or a 4images script installed, users are also given the chance to preview a variety of free web design themes and install any of them together with the chosen script.
Launched in April 2003, ResellersPanel offers a free, fully-automated reseller hosting program which has helping approximately 100,000 resellers establish their own hosting companies and brands. A year ago, ResellersPanel launched Elefante Installer (www.elefanteinstaller.com), a website that offers resellers demos and free installations of more than 30 open-source PHP scripts such as phpBB2, WordPress, Joomla, Mambo, osCommerce, Drupal and Coppermine.
