I don't even understand what a CMS is, let alone know if it's the right way to go.

Yeah, we need one. I will either sufficiently strip one down to our needs or make one myself sometime.

Those sites used professional coders and designers. They just used the system of Drupal, not the real deal.

It's either find a theme, or make a shitty CMS.

Don't worry. I only understand the basics myself, and I'm one of the people trying to get this sort of thing done.

Sadly, because I know jack shit, all I can really do is whine until the other Admins do something.

Knowing what it is is all fine, but that's not very helpful for this discussion, particularly in deciding whether or not to implement one.

Empty the entire site, use Joomla!, reinstall SMF, or use the backup or some shit, and wrap SMF for a fancy look.

I've actually made a swifty small CMS by myself. It's got pretty much everything but a commenting system for the news posts.

If we can get you and Snorkel to combine your efforts, we can probably make a really nice, concise CMS. Too bad he's not here right now.

I'll post a link to mine tomorrow once I fix a few things. Right now I only have a CSS changer though, not a complete theme setup.

But all our CMS's look like blogs, and JMV's looking for a god damn The Onion or CNN-style layout.

Kt, Joomla! sucks because

1. fucking huge files, and lots of them
2. unorganized and shitty
3. Themes suck
4. we don't need a login system which is 70% of the whole cms
5. sucks without a crapload of mods

Bassir, I might be able to make a whole theme changer but mysql is a bitch.

No, I just want something that looks like a site that doesn't suck.  How often do you trust info from a blog other than the ones owned by Weblogs Inc?

because it was obvious. That's why we got rid of it before.

No, not really, I never was EVER told that, I never found any sort of free host that used anything more than HTML or some shit, and Everyone who uses SMF seems to think it's good with Joomla! I never got told any of that, ever, never heard a word.

Okay, no more going on. I didn't know Joomla was huge and cumbersome, and isn't a good choice. It would have helped if I wasn't so blind to other blindness and shit.

Man, maybe I need to go back on Dextroamphetamine.

So Ricky, is your CMS just a basic one right now, without really looking very nice, or what?
Title: Re: the thread where jmv and kaz whine about not having a cms
Post by: Ricky on December 13, 2007, 07:24:13 PM
Right now it's fully themed by the syle of the ZetaBoards default theme (don't ask - i find it beautiful) with a CSS changer to make it compatible wth other ZB themes.

Tomorrow I will have a few hours to work on it. After that, I'll post a link in the internal board explaining some php/mysql stuff with Bassir, how to make a theme for it, and how to use the ACP.

Also, I'm using varibles nstead of functions. In english, a big problem. I can swith though.

Same here. For me, browsing in the original way doesn't take that long to load, but I prefer WAP2 because it's 5 seconds faster.

Edit the WAP template and make a box around posts.



Sure enough, when I have a list ready to work on my CMS, my hosting's down.
