Has anyone re-skinned ISPConfig and created a new frontend and used the API for the backend

    Technically should be able to do it adding your own security. Was hoping to see an example of a different front end
    Any url's would be appreciated. Thanks.

    What prompted this was I was working on an issue for a customer whose ISP was using cpanel, but the interface was totally user friendly and not the standard cpanel so they must have been using cpanel api

    In theory it is possible. But maybe it would be better to improve the ISPConfig UI and share your thoughts/improvements with the community, instead of writing a new panel :)

    there was a user on here @smartyscripts, who made some very nice looking themes for ispconfig 3.1
    not sure if they'll work unchanged on 3.2, but they do show what can be achieved.
    unfortunately he disappeared from this site just over a year ago, and the links to download the themes from his site don't work.
    some of us who had downloaded some of them managed to upload the zip files back to the thread for a few of them though.

    I would also like to pay to have a theme made that resembles cPanel 3x ("classic").
    @webguyz, (or others) would you like to go 50/50 on funding this theme?
    Developers, please private message me a quote for the project if interested or email: bryantjones(at)Gmail.com

    Any sketches of how it should look like?
    And keep in mind that it has to be updated when there are changes to the ISPConfig default theme ;)

    Will the theme usually break when an update for ispconfig comes out?
    If you were interested in making the theme, how much would you charge?
    Attached below is cPanel x3 which can also be viewed by putting "cPanel x3" into Google

    The version file has to be updated at least. Any necessary changes have to be done.

    Creating a custom theme will take quite some time, and some of the menus I see in your screenshot will take even more work.
    I'll send you a email to discuss it - but please note this is a private service and it's in no way affliated with HowToForge or ISPConfig itself.

    Maybe take a poll to see how many others would be interested before investing any time.
