Lead Module and Component Now Available for CiviCRM!

Posted by: Nicholas Myrna

CiviCRM is a fantastic system for managing contacts, eNewsletters, donations, events, and much more. It is used by both non-profit and for-profit enterprises that wish to use a CRM solution that works seamlessly with their Joomla sites. CorFun has successfully deployed CiviCRM for many different types of organizations. One shortcoming of the system, however, was that CiviCRM did not have a "lead" module that would allow site visitors to fill out a simple form requesting more information. That form should create a "lead" in CiviCRM and notify an internal resource that a request for information has come in. To fill this need - the CiviLead Module and component system was created!

CiviNews eNewsletter Sign Up Module for Joomla 1.7 and CiviCRM 4.0 Released!

CiviCRM is an outstanding CRM system for use with Joomla-powered Websites. The CiviMail feature is a powerful, robust way of sending emails for contacts within CiviCRM. CorFun has been very pleased with our projects that used CiviCRM for contact management, donation management, and eNewsletter management.  Despite being very pleased overall, CorFun noticed a huge drop off in newsletter registrations on every site on which we replaced a solution such as JNews with the CiviMail function within CiviCRM. Having a button to click to sign up for the newsletter, a link on a menu, and invitations in articles simply do not take the place of a prominently displayed eNewsletter sign up module. So CorFun coded one called CiviNews and made it available for both Joomla 1.5 and Joomla 1.7

Easiest and Best Google Mapping for Joomla

Posted by: Nicholas Myrna

Tagged in: JQuery , Joomla mapping , Joomla 1.7 , JMaps , Google maps , Google

There are a lot of Google Mapping module integrations for Joomla. Most, however, really only focus on putting a single location on a Google Map to show your location or some other address. You can put the module on your Joomla site, and potential customers can find their way to your location. Question is - what if you need multiple locations mapped at once? Or, what if you would like your Joomla site to feature a map with the Google Search Bar integrated in? That is where JMaps from CorFun comes in - the easiest and best Google Mapping integration for Joomla.

K2 Contributor Login Redirect Now Native for Joomla 1.7 - Direct K2 Contributors to a Selected Page at Login!

Posted by: Nicholas Myrna

Tagged in: K2 , Joomla 1.7 , Joomla

The K2 Contributor Login Redirect component from CorFun lets you direct contributors to specific pages when they login to your K2-powered group blog site.  Define a default URL for any user signing in belonging to a K2 User Group that does not have a specific URL set up in the component. Then define URLs for all desired K2 User Groups so that you can pick what URL each type of contributor sees when logging in via K2. If you don't assign a User Group to a specific URL, then members of that group will go to the Default URL when logging in. K2 Contributor Login Redirect has been available for Joomla 1.5 for quite some time. We are now pleased to announce its port to the Joomla 1.7 platform and to the latest development release of K2!
