DOLIBARR ERP & CRM custom directory for external modules.
This directory is dedicated to store external modules. To use it, just copy here the directory of the module into this directory.
Note: On linux or MAC systems, it is better to unzip/store the external module directory into a different place than this directory and just adding a symbolic link here to the htdocs directory of the module.
For example on Linux OS: Get the module from the command mkdir ~/git; cd ~/git git clone https://git.doliforge.org/p/newmodule/newmodule.git Then create the symbolic link ln -fs ~/git/newmodule/htdocs /path_to_dolibarr/htdocs/custom/newmodule
WARNING !!! You must also enable the custom directory into dolibarr conf/conf.php file by adding the following two lines, so dolibarr will also scan this directories to find external external modules:
$dolibarr_main_url_root_alt='/custom'; $dolibarr_main_document_root_alt='/path_to_dolibarr/htdocs/custom/';
(This is not enabled by default because enabling external module may slow down application)
