Duplicate ModernBill LoginShares

[Digital Mayhem]

Our company has several divisions and we have two divisions that use seperate modernbills and SupportSuite doesn't let you have multiple copies of LoginShares I talked to Varun in IM over 3 weeks ago and he started to walk me through how to copy a loginshare but then he said he had to leave to go eat and hasn't been back on since... I don't know PHP so if anyone has done this or knows how to do it. I would greatly appreciate the help.

I also have 2 modernbill installations and would like to have a modernbill loginshare for each template. If you figure it out please post here how you did it.

[craigbrass]

It would be easy. Just dublicate modernbill.login.php inside includes/LoginShare/ and call the new one modernbill2.login.php. Upload that to the server.

Then, open loginshare.config.php inside the same folder. Look for :-

define("LOGINAPI_CLIENTEXEC", 113);

Right under it add :-

define("LOGINAPI_MODERNBILL2", 114);

Then, look for :-

$_LOGINAPI[LOGINAPI_CLIENTEXEC] = array("title" => $_SWIFT["language"]["loginapi_clientexec"], "include" => "clientexec.login.php");

Right under it add :-

$_LOGINAPI[LOGINAPI_MODERNBILL2] = array("title" => $_SWIFT["language"]["loginapi_modernbill"], "include" => "modernbill2.login.php");

Then, upload that file to your server.

After that you should see 2 loginshares inside the admin area. The one with the DB details is the first one and the one without is the new one. Should just be a case then of assigning loginshares to templates.

This assumes you are using the latest stable (.32).

If this doesn't work, please let me know and I will try and set it up in my test enviroment.

okay did that and when I opened the second ModernBill LoginShare it has the same db details as the first and when I change them it also changed them on the first one... So didn't work

[craigbrass]

Ok, open modernbill2.login.php and find :-

		$dbLoginShare = new dbCore($_loginshare["mbhostname"], $_loginshare["mbdbuser"], $_loginshare["mbdbpass"], $_loginshare["mbdbname"], "mysql", false);

And replace it with :-

		$dbLoginShare = new dbCore($_loginshare["mb2hostname"], $_loginshare["mb2dbuser"], $_loginshare["mb2dbpass"], $_loginshare["mb2dbname"], "mysql", false);

Then, find :-

	$forms[0]["title"] = $_SWIFT["language"]["hostname"];
	$forms[0]["name"] = "mbhostname";
	$forms[1]["title"] = $_SWIFT["language"]["dbname"];
	$forms[1]["name"] = "mbdbname";
	$forms[2]["title"] = $_SWIFT["language"]["dbuser"];
	$forms[2]["name"] = "mbdbuser";
	$forms[3]["title"] = $_SWIFT["language"]["dbpass"];
	$forms[3]["name"] = "mbdbpass";

And replace it with :

	$forms[0]["title"] = $_SWIFT["language"]["hostname"];
	$forms[0]["name"] = "mb2hostname";
	$forms[1]["title"] = $_SWIFT["language"]["dbname"];
	$forms[1]["name"] = "mb2dbname";
	$forms[2]["title"] = $_SWIFT["language"]["dbuser"];
	$forms[2]["name"] = "mb2dbuser";
	$forms[3]["title"] = $_SWIFT["language"]["dbpass"];
	$forms[3]["name"] = "mb2dbpass";

okay sorta worked but now when I go to the template group and select the second ModernBill LoginShare it doesnt save it and reverts it back too "SupportSuite Login Routine"

[Digital Mayhem]

nevermind I got it sorta fixed

craigbrass had me put

$_LOGINAPI[LOGINAPI_MODERNBIL2L]

he got the 2 and the second L reversed... So I fixed that and now it lets me save the second modernbill loginshare for that template group but now when I go too https://www.xesupport.net/?group=xelicenses&nosave=1 I enter my modernbill email and password and it then says processing login but then comes back and says

Invalid Username or Password


Anyone have any ideas?

[craigbrass]

Ooops, I have updated that in my main post thus not to confuse anybody else.

Are you SURE you have the correct "ModernBill" inside the template group as both loginshares will say the same name for them?

[Digital Mayhem]

Yes cause I tried both...

Plus the first main default one is at the top of the drop down list and the second one that I added is towards the bottom.

[Digital Mayhem]

Well I created a custom "Users Group" called "XeLicenses Users" and set the template to use that and get the problem but I went and changed it to the default "Registered" and now it works...

[eger]

Thanks for well documenting this guys. Hopefully I can try this out soon. I would love to see this support added to esupport.

[Digital Mayhem]

ya I already suggested to Varun to be able to go into the LoginShares and be able to click a button like labled "Copy" and it will create another one of those loginshares... like you can do with the server modules and order groups in modernbill.

Literally? You okay?

[craigbrass]

It would prolly be better if you selected the loginshare for the template group from the drop down menu in the template group settings and then the configure options popped out below. That way you could have multiple loginshares with ease.

I would like to share logins between my 2 moderbill installs aswell, however my config files are encoded

Why encode the config files? Is there a way I can get an unecoded config file so I may implement this?

Thanks
