Hi

I’m supprised there are no instructions on how to install the software on joomla. Anyone done this and can provide some basic instructions.

Thanks

Hi,

This is really easy to do :)

if you get onto your server, and find your joomla installation

1) navigate to “/your joomla install/templates/your active template/” 2) edit the index.php file with your favorite text editor 3) find the tags 4) Paste the code to your mint code:

    <script src="/mint/?js" type="text/javascript"></script>"

hi, while this solution will work, there may be pages in joomla you dont want canvassed. if you do the above it will appear on every page no matter what. to install on joomla with the ability to have it appear where you want, download one of the custom code modules from joomla.org. add the script tag to the module and add a position to the template above the end head tag. then publish that module to that position in whichever page you choose.

If there is more interest i could develop a module specific to mint. hmmm…

When you say “find the tags”, what are you referring to?

“find the tags” refers to finding the tag which the Mint code is recommended to be placed within ;)

I don’t use Joomla so I wouldn’t know for sure, but find the tags probably means finding the </head> tag and pasting <script src="/mint/?js" type="text/javascript"></script> before it, so that it looks something like

<script src="/mint/?js" type="text/javascript"></script>
</head>

However, what Minnie Mouse says above is true. If you don’t want something to be tracked by Mint, you’ll have to find another solution.
