Installation

  1. Download Fields - Terms of Service from the RicheyWeb download page.  
    • This page will remain unlinked, as the link may change in the future.  Visit http://www.richeyweb.com and use the search feature - search for "Fields - Terms of Service".
  2. In Joomla /administrator, go to the "Extensions" menu, the "Manage" sub-menu, and the "Install" sub-menu.
  3. Select the "Upload Package File" tab
  4. Press the "Choose File" button to browse your system and locate the plugin file you downloaded

At this point, the extension is installed but not enabled.  You can find the plugin by going to the Extensions menu and selecting "Plugins".  When in the plugin manager, search for "Fields - Terms of Service".  

 

Configuration

  1.  Create a custom user field
  2. Give it a name that reflects the terms you wish to present to your users
  3. Link the Terms Article to the article containing the terms you wish your users to accept.
  4. After saving the field, re-open it and allow "Public" to "Edit Custom Field Value"

Why is this software free?

I’m ditching the freemium game and giving this software to the Joomla crowd for free. It’s a nod to “Jumla”—Swahili for “all together”—because fragmentation sucks, and I’d rather focus on innovation and paid gigs. Use it, build with it, and if you need custom work, I’m super into that.

Will You Make X for WordPress?

No. WordPress accounted for over 96% of the websites infected with malware in 2022, and 99.4% of all security vulnerabilities were found in themes and plugins in 2021. I have personally witnessed a WordPress site hack destroy a company. I won't touch that CMS with a 10-foot pole.
