Mambo Integration Module for DreamAccount Released. ( Purchase it here )

Now there is a truly automated billing solution for Mambo sites. With DreamAccount and the Mambo Module, you can eliminate the need for dual logins, htaccess, and manual intervention of any kind on your Mambo site!

This module will give you the ability to sell subscriptions that will control & automatically update the user's associated group in Mambo. You can then configure Mambo to grant specific privileges, blocks, and read/edit/add privileges only to users to that group.

DreamAccount will update the Mambo database to maintain the user's group setting each time billing is run, so once the subscription expires or billing fails, their access will be dropped to the default level, which you can customize.

It will cause the following database queries to be mirrored on the DreamAccount database when run in Mambo:

- Email Update (via member area)
- Password Update (via member area)

It will cause the following database queries to be mirrored on the Mambo database when run in DreamAccount:

- Account Addition (via admin & member areas)
- Account Update (via admin & member areas)
- Account Deletion (via admin area)

This module will also check the Mambo database when adding new members in DreamAccount, to be sure that the username and email address are unique and not already registered in Mambo.

You can also use the included utility script to:

- Copy all your existing DreamAccount users into Mambo*
- Copy all your existing pMachine users into DreamAccount*

* Only recommended if you have a clean install of either DreamAccount or Mambo with no user data in one.

Also in the pipeline for future release, are modules that will allow you to control the following software via DreamAccount:
- Xaraya
- YaBBSE
- Ticket/Chat Systems
- Email List Management Software
- LDAP
- And more!
