Adding 3rd Party Content

Whilst the IPS4 product provides most of the functionality that you will need, there may be niche items that you would like to add to your site. This means there are times you will want to add 3rd party content, created by external developers, to your site.

Applications will generally add new areas to your site, while plugins will tend more to add to existing areas on your site.

Warning

3rd Party applications and plugins are not supported by IPS and are used at your own risk.

 

Uploading 3rd Party Items

 

Applications

To add a 3rd party application you have downloded, you will need to visit "System>Site Features>Applications" in your admin CP. From here you will be able to select the install button to install a new application.
