Open Dental Forum

Would it be possible for you guys to write a simple tutorial explaining how to make a simple hello world plugin?
How to integrate with external programs?

I would like to extend Open Dental but am very confused.

Thank you.

Twilio allows you to set up VOIP or advanced telephony services using HTTP. By far the best option out there. You just need to find a developer to set this up for you once and tailor it to your practice needs.

Highly recommended, check them out

There are several notable services that allow you to send these types of emails:

Metro and Windows 8 sucks. Sticking with Windows 7. Microsoft messed up on this one big time.

Not sure what your progress is on the the Windows app but I was thinking of getting an Open Dental app ready just in time for BlackBerry 10 launch.
I am writing native code C/C++ business logic.

One word: BlackBerry 10. Launching January 30, 2013. 140-2 Security Certified. BES 10 BYOD management. Security perimeter with BlackBerry Balance - separate on device threads, one for personal, the other for work. It's the only device on the market that's actually HIPAA compliant. Android = Malware ...

I am having issues getting the Example Plugin working. If you have something working, I would love to see the code. The docs are lacking.

Thanks.

I had issues using Tortoise, SVN. For those of you who use GitHub, or any git distributed version control, I have posted source of the plugin example so you can easily clone it to your machines. You can use git or https (zip, or tarball). Versioning begins at rev 8320. Run git clone on git://github....

Obviously I don't want to just close the office if I can help it but realistically how much down time can I expect to experience before we are a functioning dental office again? Would you find a site like Lynda.com for Open Dental Software useful? I am working on something like this. There needs to...

My skillset includes html5, css3, js, jquery, php, mysql, bbdev, mongodb, github etc. Figured Out I needed to Install Apache Linux, then call my php script just like in web app dev I will need to spend some time looking at the db architecture to create the queries I n...

1. I am stuck. Not sure what Mysql Connector to use, what it is... Any suggestions Jordan?
2 .Also, how do you sync with another server. I don't need to sync everything, just the schedule?

Thanks! Still need to get this working.

Hi! I need to extract the daily schedule from Open Dental. Looks like you can do the following query from Reports ->User Query: select * from appointment I need to create a batch(bat) script with this command. Is there a way I can query data from open dental outside of the program? Trying to use the...

I would like to customize the look layout of the Statement (Under Accounts->Statement). I am upgrading a practice and integrating various systems. I need the Statement that gets printed to the patients to be consistent. Is there a way I can create my own page design? Can I control how the data is di...

Best of luck to you Jordan and the entire Open Dental Team! Not sure about what this means to HIPAA etc.

Have you thought about putting the project on GitHub (github.com) and Open Sourcing the development to those interested? I would be willing to contribute my html5/js skills in your effort.

Hi! I'm new. My plan is to automate some things inside open dental so that I can deploy my solution to a few sole practitioner practices that could benefit. Goals: 1. Batch/Bash tasks to synchronize practice schedule with third-party solution such as Google Calendar/BlackBerry Calendar 2. Automatic...
