A few thoughts on CMS

A few thoughts on CMS

05/28/09 | by cleaverb [mail] | Categories: All

Our Joomla experiment on cleaverb.info is over.The page is still there,
for now. The fatal flaw in many content management systems seems to
be having the left column for navigation. I did find one, named
WCMSphp that looks promising,but our .info host doesn't support it.
These systems are great for website management, but all I want is
an RSS file that updates itself when I add new pages . My filing
system works okay, I just keep forgetting to update the .xml file
that tells people something new was added...
I shall have to ask around for a solution that tells my server to
compile list of pages by date(new first), and writes the information
to an xml file. I don't know where to look; in Perl or maybe it's
a cron job. All anyone says on the subject is; if you update your site
manually, you will have to update the RSS feeds manually.
On the 'fun' side, I have been updating my computers Vector Linux .
Finally, it updated Firefox to version 3 ! Learned something new,
and without any help..!
On the Windows partition of my comp, I tried out the free FileZilla
FTP program. It works fantastic ! I always wanted to backup my site
locally, and the download feature truly amazes me. Much better than
the old system of : visit each page, 'save as' ...
