Hi all.

This will be the last update I’ll post here in the CodeIgniter forums since not many people seem to have any input on MyClientBase.  Feel free to come join the forums if you’d like to contribute ideas, suggestions, etc, to the project.

Update (Jan 15, 2010) (See the latest post in thread for changes in current version)

MyClientBase is a modular (using Modular Extensions) and super easy to use system that you can use to manage your client information and generate invoices.  The goal of MCB is to provide freelancers with a system to generate invoices as simply as possible.  MCB is also available in many different languages (and more being added frequently).

Please feel free to download, install, tinker with and let me know what you think!  There’s also a demo available for you to test drive it without downloading and installing it (username: admin / password: admin).

Download MyClientBase!

Installation:

1. Download the latest version of MyClientBase.
2. Unpack and copy the files to your web server.
3. Create an empty database.
4. Open system/core/config/config.php and adjust the $config[‘base_url’] variable.
5. Open /system/core/config/database.php and adjust the $db[‘default’] variables for hostname, username, password and database.
6. Set /system/core/plugins/dompdf/lib/fonts as writeable by your web server.
7. Visit index.php/setup to finish the install.

Upgrading:

1. Perform steps 1 & 2 from the install directions.
2. Visit index.php/setup and click the Upgrade button.

That’s it!

I developed this using PHP 5.2.6 and MySQL 5.0.75, so it may or may not work on lesser versions.

Oh, a quick hint… I don’t have the system set up yet to warn you when you try to create an invoice without first having created a client - so be sure to create a client before you try and create an invoice.

Edit invoice item - The “Back to invoice item” looks like it’s missing a language translation, and also goes to a non existent location. No currency selections, no vat/tax entry? No reporting yet (I know it’s early) I guess it depends what you want it for. Certainly for me no good as I have to bill in different currencies and with different tax rates.

Yep, this is indeed a *very* early release.  Thanks for your input - these are all good points.

I most say…I simply love the clean light skin.
Good work Jesse, hope to see soon more about InkType.
Why dont you base the backend theme of InkType in this one from MyClientBase? wink

Or will you in 1.0? raspberry

Thanks!  And no, the skin isn’t used in InkType 1.0.  Having some licensing issues on a skin I got off of themeforest for InkType.  They changed how they license things recently, so I’m kinda pissed… and I’m not a designer, so that certainly doesn’t help anything!  smile
