Dioscouri PHPList Integration Overview

PhpList, if you haven't heard, is an open source newsletter manager; with over 10,000 downloads each month, it is one of the most popular open source newsletters solutions in the world.

This is our PhpList integration for Joomla. We've been actively using it here on Dioscouri since January, so if you have registered for our newsletter in 2009, then you've seen its front-end in action. If not, take a look here. Also, take a look at the module at the bottom of our site.

We built our integration with the expectation that you use PhpList's cronjob for managing your queue, and that once you have the crontab running, you use the integration to add/remove mailings from the queue.

We have been in touch with Michael, the lead developer of PhpList, and have decided to offer him a portion of all proceeds generated by support subscriptions for this component -- he's doing a great job with limited funding; let's see what he can do with a little more.

Finally, if you find bugs or have a feature request for the integration, please let us know!

Requirements

Joomla! v1.5 (tested with 1.5.7+)
PHP 4.2+
MySQL 3.3+

An Intuitive Dashboard

The PhpList Integration comes with the familiar Dioscouri Dashboard, from which you have quick access to each of the major component functions, as well as one-click access to help in the Dioscouri Support Center and Forums

Painless Integration

Connecting your PhpList installation is as simple as entering your database credentials.

Create and Manage Mailings

Now you can create and manage your PhpList mailings right from the admin-side of your Joomla installation. This includes:

Create new messages
Assign messages to newsletters
Add messages to Queue / Suspend Mailing
Review mailing data

Create and Manage Newsletters

You can manage your selection of newsletters also. This includes:

Create new lists
Publish/Unpublish, edit and reorder existing newsletters

Manage Subscriptions

Managing subscriptions is a cinch. You can create a new subscription for an existing Joomla User or for any old email address. Additionally, the admin-side control panel allows you to filter out the newsletters subscribers who aren't associated with Joomla users. Other features include:

One-click unsubscribe
Auto-subscribing on the front-end
Auto-creation of PhpList Users by the front-end user plugin

Friendly Front-End Interaction

Whether through the front-end newsletter view or module, your users can register for your subscriptions whether they're logged in or not. And it's Ajax-powered, so subscribing doesn't refresh the page.

The front-end view tells a user whether or not they're currently registered for a specific newsletter and allows the user to view all past mailings. For a preview, check it out here on Dioscouri.com.

Multi-Lingual

It uses the native Joomla! 1.5 language system, so with the use of a free component such as com_translationmanager, you can translate it into your own language with just a few clicks. By default, the English language file is installed.
