FEATURE: Account Page Enhancements

[lokki]

I'm very happy to see the cPanel access and server info on the accounts section!

I have a couple of small requests for ease of use:

1) Make the cPanel links on the accounts page open to "_blank". This will make it so we can stay in our management pane, but still work on the account's cPanel.

2) Include the server name and IP without having to 'dig' in another link (alternatively, just have the popup link under the 'Server' column, and include IP, server name, SMTP status, and maybe some other info like current PHP version).

That's it for now!

Ive updated it to open in a new window now as requested.

The reason for the dig is to keep the system quick. It slows the page down dramatically doing a dig. Its not bad at all , in fact you dont notice it for users with one account. For users with several accounts or even worse resellers with dozens or hundreds of accounts the page would seem hung while it does those digs.

I do like the idea of having it pull up an array of server data though instead of just being an ip dig.

Gotcha - didn't think about the 100s of accounts scenario!

So, any chance of maybe having a check box by each account so one could generate a query? I'm thinking about being able to group sites by machine or IP block (if that's even appropriate), or other server info. But the checkboxes would be a first pass at doing some sorting or manual selection to return a table of server info. Then, if someone does have 100s of accounts, they could select some or all, and be aware there'd be a delay.

Exporting to an Excel spreadsheet or new db table would be tasty...

Am I getting ahead of myself? :lol:

I was just thinking about the server info dig... how about displaying it by default on single account inquiries? Right now, it takes two clicks which results in an unstyled popup window. For single entries, it should be pretty quick to either display the server info.

Alternatively, have the individual account info pop up in a 'remote control' kind of window with the info displayed there, which would then communicate with the main window. Could lay some framework for a few nice features down the road.

All of those are good suggestions and I think could lead into some nice developments.
