PHP Nuke

Post by arfur »

I have installed [url]phpnuke.org[/url] onto one of the sites I manage. Chris has helped me have a play (then gave up :x , not really)

However I am determined to get it working :!:

The site I am working on is http://www.stalbansscouts.co.uk and the phpnuke version is http://www.stalbansscouts.co.uk/nuke.

The reason I want to change is it takes me ages to put stuff up then even longer to remember to take it down. With PHPNuke I can hopefully get it to do it itself and get others to post instead of me. I will only have to check it.

Anyway if anyone else has any knowledge of PHP Nuke I would love to know, so I can pick your brains :mrgreen:

No, you can do links to self created pages. It can have a phpBB board as an add on so registered users on the forum will be also registered n the webby with same user/pwd's

UPDATE

I gave up with PHP Nuke. I have however found a proggy called siteframe, which does what I want it to do although it is as graphically as good. You cant win them all ! On the scouta webby I have the content I wanted displayed just need to work out how to change the templates for the layout now.

The thing that annoys me with phpnuke etc., is that they are used alot in gaming clan websites, and no one has ever managed to make a design thats actually good, and somewhat different to everyone elses :arse:

My host has fantastico (installs open source stuff with a couple of clicks) and I have tried most of them. Siteframe has been the first one where I have been able to get it to do what I want and not something nearly close. But yes you can spot one a mile off.
