Single Sign-In for domains ssidomain_v1_0_5
Multisites Search for joomla 1.5, 1.6, 1.7 and 2.5 - Version 1.0 MultisitesSearch_v1.0.2

In 2012, our company purchased 3 x JMS2WIN products and tested 90% of features that were working.

We were never able to deploy or use JMS commercially, however, because we were never able to edit the Slave "index.php". The Slave Site would always show only the Master Site "index.php".

Our Test Settings:

> Slaves setup with share whole site option.
> Templates folder set as copy.
> All other files and folders are symbolic link (except installation folder which is set to ignore).
> Slave template.css can be edited to produce custom slave css edits. (This appears okay...)

PROBLEM:

> Slave template index.php edits are not visible in slave site because it continually loads master template index.php

OUR BUYER/USER QUESTION:

> "How do we make Slave template index.php edits show up?" Is this possible as this feature will determine whether we will update to JMS2WIN 1.3.x.

Any information or help you are apple to provide will be greatly appreciated for our continued software review and/or investment with JMS2WIN.

Sincerely,

Normally, the index.php and index2.php are files that should not have to be modified.
They contain a special redirection that allow keeping the JPATH_BASE as original "document root" because when you create a symbolic link, the dirname() or realpath() return the physical path of a link and not the "calling" path.

We don't know why you want to modify the "index.php" file but in JMS 1.3.47, we have added the feature.
Now it is possible to edit the index.php & index2.php action to have "copy", "ignore", "unzip".

By default, the JMS template rules remains delivered with default rule that does NOT allow editing those file actions.
Only new JMS template rule have the possiblity to edit them.
Existing rules created before JMS 1.3.47 will also remain "read only".
