osCMax 2.5

The Installation of MailBeez is successfully tested with osCMax v2.5RC1, running on php 5.3+

The installation is straight forward and can be done in a couple of minutes by following these three steps:

• copy new files
• modify existing files
• add admin access

Step 1 – copy new files

If not done yet please download and unzip the installer package (.zip) on your computer: Download

copy following file to your admin-directory

mailbeez.php

copy following file and folder to your catalog-directory (where your index.php is located)

mailhive (folder)
mailhive.php

Step 2 – modify existing files

1. Add the filename definition

located and open the file

admin/includes/filenames.php

add e.g. at the end

define('FILENAME_MAILBEEZ', 'mailbeez.php');
define('FILENAME_HIVE', 'mailhive.php');

do almost the same for your catalog:

includes/filenames.php

add

define('FILENAME_HIVE', 'mailhive.php');

2. Add a menu entry

located and open the file

admin/includes/boxes/tools.php

find

tep_admin_jqmenu(FILENAME_WHOS_ONLINE, BOX_TOOLS_WHOS_ONLINE, 'TOP'));

replace with

tep_admin_jqmenu(FILENAME_WHOS_ONLINE, BOX_TOOLS_WHOS_ONLINE, 'TOP') . tep_admin_jqmenu(FILENAME_MAILBEEZ, 'MailBeez', TOP));

this will add the menu-entry “MailBeez” to your Tools-Box. Feel free to place this link whereever you want.
