Entry Level Content Management System
Entry Level CMS features
Although Entry Level CMS is a simple PHP web application, it’s no wimp when it comes to what counts. Entry Level CMS has a clean, very easy to use interface, a login/logout system using $_SESSION COOKIES, ability to add users, TinyMCE textarea editor (http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/), the ability to toggle visibility of a category or page(s), the ability to change/rearrange categories or page(s), a contact form with CAPTCHA, honeypots and a security question to prevent WEBBOTS from inputting data and, of course, file uploading.
So, who is EL CMS for?
In a word, anybody. But, EL CMS is developed primarily for individuals or businesses who are accustom to creating HTML websites and are familiar with CSS (cascading style sheets), but also need an application with database utilization. And in addition, probably know nothing to very little of PHP—and almost certainly have zero interest in learning it.
PHP is not an easy server-side language to learn—in spite “PHP and MySQL for Dummies.” PHP is not just PHP. For a PHP application to “do anything substantial,” it requires a database. So, that means you have to know how to create and implement a database. But a database is not just a database. In order for a database to be effective, it requires tables to be setup properly and relationships between tables to be configured properly as well.
So, in essence, you need to know how-to-two-things…did I say that right? But with EL CMS, you design your static pages any way you want, and let the client or others login and keep the site’s changing info up-to-date.
