Open Source Yii CMS - GXC CMS

This looks good. I will research it a bit. Thank you!

A bug:

project/common/storages/LocalStorage.php

line 53:

$filename=str_repeat(" ","-",$filename)

=>

$filename=str_replace(" ","-",$filename)

Thank you Bigxu! ^^

I saw, in the menu type has a" term". But when I create a term link, it points to the homepage , where is the term page, excuse me? how to create page of special term?

@bigxu:

Can you post a screenshot for your question?

i mean:

i create a item of menu (a link) of type: ‘Link to a term page’.

after finished. i found it link to home page,note a list content of terml

In MenuBlock file from common/front_blocks/menu/MenuBlock.

Function for render Menu Link

Line 106

function buildLink($item)

You can implement to make link to Term page work.

Thank you very much. i very like this cms. i will study and use it.

for my best regards

why you Move getContentList function to GxcHelpers class ?

During my development for some freelance projects, I found that I need to create a content list and then I need to render it in some other Block beside the ListView Block. That’s why I move that function to GxcHelpers to make things clear.

about menu block, have you consider use cmenu widget in yii?

Is "assign a page to a menu item" an "under development" feature ?

@saegeek:

In Backend, Menu zone, you can add page to a menu item.

I created a page and a menu item

Then i assigned my page to this new menu item (there is no selectlist to select newly created pages :( )

Then i created a menu block but i can’t see it in the frontend :(

you can skip this step (beinstall/run) and follow the instructions below

Step 1: import db to phpmyadmin (…common\data\data.sql)

2: Replace some default attributes in table gxc_user: (default admin/123456)

password (function md5) 123456sdad12313ssgdpahcxrwwqas (123456.USER_SALT)

salt : sdad12313ssgdpahcxrwwqas

3: Replace some default attributes in gxc_settings (option)

Done. Go back and login!!!

This CMS is a bit complex to handle (too many customizations, like drupal)

why you had not made it more static but simple to use (like PHPNuke or Nuked Klan) ?

What is a "term" and what is a "taxonomy" ?

"menus" and "pages" are not enough ?

@saegeek:

Term and taxonomy - you can learn about them on Google. It’s really simple and easy to use.

“menus” and “pages” are not enough ? - I don’t understand what you mean here. Please describe it

Hi all, I am fairly new to YII framework and wondering if someone could answer a few questions regarding this project…

I know someone asked earlier what Term and taxonomy is, but upon using Google, I was still unsure what they are. Could someone briefly explain and/or point me to site that has information about it so I understand better?

[edit] ************

For anyone also new to these words (term and taxonomy) here is the definitions as I understand them.

term - is a category for which content can be a member of. For example, a posting called “Amazon’s NON-charitable side” could be placed in a term (category) called “Corporate News”

taxonomy - is a grouping of 1 or more terms (categories). For our example of the term "Corporate News" could be placed in the taxonomy "News".

So, these two words really just represent a way to categorize content. So, building of the example, we could have a structure like this:

News

Corporate News

---- Amazon’s NON-charitable side [article]

---- Some other article

Economic News

---- Where did our money go?

anyway, hope that helps anyone that may have the same questions that I did. Supposedly, these words are used in WordPress, but I have not really used that CMS to be familiar.

[end edit] ********

Second question is: Is it possible to install any other YII-based module into this CMS for use? Would it be fairly easy? For example, I’d really like to implement a site-wide search… Is this possible?

Final question: When YII 2 is released, will this project have to be completely rewritten in order to support the new framework?

Thanks for any help, and I really like this project thus far! Keep up the great work!

Very impressed, keep up the good work!

@ryn:

I use some modules in the cms: rights, translate,… In my cms. So it is possible to use yii-based module.

For yii 2.0, i will do my best to rewrite it. ^^
