For Joomla! 1.0.x and 1.5 (legacy)
Current version is 2.0.1.
Community Builder 1.1 compatible!
This version is not sold in a package more than for 10 subsites. If you are going to use it at more than 10 subsites, please use our MS Site Manager Pro and ProFTP version.
New features in this version:
- NOW has the automated users synchronization function (from main site to subsites only)
- NOW if user is associated with one site he will be redirected there automatically after logging in(optional)
- You can use the permissions mask
Note:The synchronization and single sign on is possible only for Joomla sites based on the same kind of version:
- Joomla up until 1.0.12
- Joomla 1.0.13 and above
- Joomla 1.5.x
In example two sites based on Joomla 1.5.1 and 1.0.15 won't be synchronized!
How does it play in Joomla!?
USER:
“Welcome to all of the courses/subsites at the XX Company”-site, where the Registered User, when logged in, can see a list with the courses/subsites, he is enrolled into.
He clicks on a course/site link and is taken to the Home page at the selected course/site, where he by auto is logged in as a Registered User - ready to navigate all menu items only shown for Registered Users.
ADMIN:
When logged in as an administrator in the back end of Joomla! the admin user can see a menu item in Components called Multisites and can:
Create/update/delete and look at a list of courses/sites (that all ready are made in separate folders each containing a total Joomla site OR can be made by auto incl. configuration.php!!!!)
Create/update/delete users with all user data (user, username, password - also via batch import)
Enroll/unenroll users into courses/subsites (also via batch import)
When submitting: the changes are updated in the database/in the database for each course.
You can either have a central database or a database for each course/site.Then there is no need for hacking the courses/sites (if you want login on the courses/sites to be done by auto you must install a extra component in each course/site. This component is included in the download.) – you can use standard Joomla! sites.
Beside that you have several possibilities when doing the menu item for the Sites/Courses list to be shown:
What should be done when the user is:
| Logged In |
Logged Out
|
Logged In Redirect URL
Logged In Include URL
Logged In Content Item Id
Logged In Text
Site List Visible: No/Yes |
Logged Out Redirect URL
Logged Out Include URL
Logged Out Content Item Id
Logged Out Text
|

We did test the product, and it is indeed an excellent product which really makes it easier to quickly install & manage several Joomla sites. (Excellent for small hosting companies for example)
Thanks a lot for allowing us to test your excellent product, and we will not hesitate to recommend your solution. It does what it says, and does it well !!!
Best regards

Thanks for such a wonderful component! I bought it yesterday and am getting started using it. I have created one main site and one subsite. Eventually there will be many sites.

OK just a little message to say thank you for this great component. Although the spirit of open source is not respected, it is worthy to spend 99 $ for this very good component...
Keep on
