HI, I am working a lot to create a simple CMS system based on RadiantCMS.
As a goal I want to create a database (cached) based, configurable system, where has:
Pages
Blocks (custom and distributed)
Customized templates
Blog system
Auth & permissions
So everything would be customized by using 'blocks' which is peaces of code that can be stored at database or in normal python modules, then it will be cashed (in the same wordpress & magento does)
Another thing I have is db based menu & a custom administraton dashboard.
Templates will be created using web2py template language or jquery templates depending on the block_type.
I used Skeleton as layout base, JQuery template for blocks, plugin_PowerGrid, plugin_PowerModal, plugin_ckeditor and only two controllers + a lot of conditional models (using the new cool subfolders feature in models).
It has mobile adapted themes.
All forms are automatic processed via ajax (but it is configurable) and validation is server or client side.
I Called it web2py SimplrCMS (because it is very un-anbitious and really simple), intent to be used by any kind of users (even non-programmers)
I already have real website running, and I am testing it
The backend are developed using PowerGrid and Crud.
this is under development and I am including more generalization and a sample template (the actual is not mine, it belongs to a client).
I am here requesting your feedback about it, and I want to know who are interested in a very simple, lightweight, FOSS Content Management System for web2py?
I hope to release it soon on
labs.blouweb.com (my problem now is to write documentation, I am with no time for it, and I am bad with words in English :) )
But I will release only when documentation were complete, because I see users running in troubles with other codes I released without documentation :) (sorry...)
See some Screenshots of the backend (very simple).
Main dashboard (pages, blocks e custom menus)
Pages Content administration
COntent editor:
Wide and with image uploads (provided by ckeditor plugin)
Menu admin
automatic ajax forms
BLOG SYSTEM (built on top of PowerGrid)
In place blog admin/editor
Mobile adapted layout - Skeleton media queries
Just want to know what do you thing about? can someone contribute? suggestions?
Thanks.
