Hi all,
Iv'e currently been working on some different CMS styles which may be usefull for those who do not wish to use the dynastycms or icedynasty layouts / theme's / style's ect.
Been trying out > Joomla, Drupal, CMSmadesimple, e107 and a few others.
Has anyone managed to find a CMS which actually fits nicely with the rose kind of genre, database setup is obviously done upon installation then changing the way the php's connect to your db is done later, I'm just looking for something which we could use which is
1. simpler and more user freindly then just bashing out some php code
and
2. offers more functionality i.e extension add ons, modules ect.
Currently we have access to Dynasty and Icedynasty but thats it! it stops there, you download the zip / rar archive and are expected to carry out the rest yourself ( theme changing,style editing,module making ect ect )
What I'd like to do is grab a few people and start working on a CMS for OSrose and the dev rev II for new servers / web dev's that wish to use a different CMS which not only offers more security ( sql wise ) but they can refer back to a single source rather than being directed / expected to search for hours on end to find a simple script.
Initially we'd have to come to a decision on which base CMS to start with, then move on to creating the base modules ect using some of the older elements but "improving" them.
For a team, I'd need people capable of understanding basic php,sql statements,db access and rights management, a designer, a frontend manager and backend manager, and maybe more.
The reason for doing a small project like this:
dev-osrose and its staff / members have given out so much information since it 1st started so lets show some appreciation to the community and new comers alike by getting together a team and making a CMS for those who do not have 1 already or simply want to upgrade to a much cleaner more user friendly CMS for there servers.
