External php application

Permalink
Hello all.

I wonder if anyone could point me in the right direction here, I'm very new to C5. In fact I came across it looking for a way to give html site owners an intuitive way of editing their own content.

As I've only been looking at the platform a couple of days I am not sure where to start with this current problem - a friend of mine purchased a php application that uses its own mysql database -http://bestimonials.backendlabs.com/docs/code/... and uses this on her html site with no problem.

I'd like for her to be able to edit the site, and think she'd love C5's interface and ease of use, but I am not sure how I would go about integrating this into C5, if I can at all?

Any help/pointers would be massively appreciated from this noob.

Cheers,

Al

1) Put the external application in a subdirectory of Concrete5
2) Log into C5 and go to the dashboard
3) Go to the "Single Pages" menu
4) Profit (-;

http://www.concrete5.org/documentation/developers/pages/single-page... - here's a link to what you can achieve by using single pages.
Additionally, you can simply create an iframe to the external application.

There are advanced ways to integrate it but from what I'm reading, a quick and dirty way would suffice.

One more thing.
I just realized you'd probably want to put this inside a normal page.
So you can style your Bestimonials in a minimal way and create a HTML block.
From there, you can just add an iframe inside it to display your stuff.
