Your Best Questions About Website Content Management

Donald asks…

I need a website developed fast with an on-line content management solution suitable for a technophobe.?

The current site is at www.sagtalent.com. I need to be able to update the bio, resume and pictures. I will also need to add a voiceover audio clip. The site is currently hosted by Apollo Hosting, who has a proprietary solution that requires a monthly subscription. While the setup fee of $100 is okay, the $25/month cost is prohibitive. I don’t necesarily want to change hosting companies but am open to it. What favorable experiences have you had in the setting up a simple website like the aforementioned?
The current resume is in pdf format but that format is not a requirement. The current host server does support php.

Administrator answers:

The resume would be hard to update through a CMS since it is a PDF. The pictures and bio would be easy using PHP. If your hosting company supports PHP/SQL you could probably find someone to do it fairly inexpensively. I could probably help. I can be contacted by clicking my name.

Content Management Systems for basic streaming website?

I’m going to create a simple website that will allow me to stream my movies and music within my home network. I was wondering if there were any CMS out there that are especially effective for streaming. I’m looking for something on the simple side that will allow for customization as I progress.
Right, sorry I should have mentioned that earlier. I just want a CMS that will manage the site layout. I was simply wondering if there was anything special for a streaming site. Now that I think about it, I shouldn’t have mentioned streaming at all. Is there any CMS that any one prefers/suggests.
Requirements:
Simple at first with the ability to add customizations later
FREE, as mentioned, this is a simple home server project
Ability to create personal themes and layouts, I dont mind templates but I want to be able to have full customization of my website.
Also, this is on a debian text only server, I also need the ability to manage remotly, currently my server is managed using PUTTY

Administrator answers:

Hi James

a cms just do the programming side
the streaming should be done by a third party program that should be installed on that server such as ffserver or VLC

thank you

Donna asks…

what is the best open-source content management system to use for a minor hockey association website?

Administrator answers:

Open source cms: joomla, drupal. Both very popular and highly rated. Moderate to high learning curve.
Wordpress can also be used to build sites as a cms. It’s simpler and quicker to learn.

Maria asks…

Which content management system is better for a real estate website? joomla or wordpress?

Administrator answers:

Joomla would be better.

Betty asks…

Do you know any good commercial or Open Source Content Management System for a dentist’s website? Thanks.?

I want the patients to be able to login to their accounts, edit their details and view their appointments.
I know I’m asking too much but there must be a CMS or an extension with these functions.

Administrator answers:

Drupal is good. It is highly configurable and can be used for a variety of purposes. Basically you have control over lots of things in Drupal.

Joseph asks…

How to apply a content management system to a website made in Dreamweaver?

Hello,

I’ve recently put together a simple website (designed in photoshop/ sliced/ dreamweaver) for a local charity, but am unsure how to help them update their site and upload pictures themselves.

I’ve heard of content management systems but have no idea how they work, which one to go for or how to apply them to my designs. Does it have to be designed in a certain way, or built in to the original?

Any help would be much appreciated :)

xxx

Administrator answers:

I had been using both Joomla and Mambo CMS. If you had already designed it on dreamweaver it only needs some small tweaks on your code.. Put all your images in a single folder, all css files in a single folder then you have to create an XML file which lists down all your files with there respective location (images, CSS, HTML, PHP, etc)..

Whew! Too long to discuss… Just follow this link:

i want translate a c#.net portal website(content management system) like mambo or dotnetnuke.
i want be a free & open source too.tell me the best.
a general portal with usefull majols.i want to extend this portal mith myown majols.
mambo & joomla are cool,but they are php.
dotnet nuke are vb.net too.
i want a compelete portal in c#.net

Administrator answers:

You’d be better of buidling one for yourself. Mostly you don’t even need all the functions such system has and you can build it more to your own needs. Just try making a simple cms which manages your news, page content and newsletter or something and then make it so you can easyily add new modules, u probably will need to build the core of such system

Lisa asks…

David asks…

Holding email data on a content management system for a marketing website?

If i am using a content management system to run my website and decide to hold data in its database in order to run a password protected area, what if any data protection considerations do i need to take into account? The data held will be Email, First Name and Surname, and of course username and password.

Administrator answers:

Need more information. What country are you in? If in the US what state (39 states have specific privacy laws), what CMS are you using? What DB are you using? I’m guessing MySQL

Mandy asks…

how to create a content management system for a website?

I’m building a website that would need a content management system for articles and for uploaded photos under a user Admin, this is a dynamic website and no i don’t want to use joomla and drupal.

News: (id, articles, content) add, delete, edit
Photo: (id, photo, description) add, delete, edit

i really need help on this been trying to look for a good tutorial but i can’t get a grasp of it…

Administrator answers:

This is a huge project. You would need a very strong grasp of HTML / CSS / JavaScript as well as a server side language like PHP and a database like MySQL / SQLite / PostgreSQL.

Unless you have strong skills in all those things, then you should just use Joomla or Drupal.

Why not use something that is free, thoroughly tested and stable – like this website?

Nancy asks…

How to become a R.E.P for PMI without having 1yr. management training exp. as given in the website? ?

Hi All,

We want to be a Registered Education Provider (R.E.P) for PMI, USA. As mentioned at PMI website – http://www.pmi.org/CareerDevelopment/Pages/Become-a-Registered-Education-Provider.aspx

the top criteria are:

- Show organizational maturity and be a legal organization that has offered project management training for at least one year
- Provide evidence of quality product design, delivery and content
- Show that course content is consistent with PMI global standards or offers differing or new concepts that are clearly indicated as such in marketing and instructional materials
- Properly award PDUs for course completion
- Offer proper R.E.P. marketing representation

We are planning to start off and hence do not meet the first criteria. We can present all other needed material as required by PMI.

Could you please inform:

- If individuals can come up and request for being REP by presenting their Bios, experience in Project Management and providing various trainings related to management in their earlier organization in their individual roles/responsibilities
- If there is any other way you can be associated with a current R.E.P and launch your own program
- If you can associated with any other organization which provides management training and launch your program via them.
- If any other route.

Your help and guidance on this aspect is highly appreciated.

Administrator answers:

Hi,

I am myself a PMP Trainer and I am pursuing the PMI R.E.P. Status. Unfortunately, I must tell you that there is no way around the rules that the PMI has set up. You have to follow the rules in order to become a PMI R.E.P.

What I am doing in the meantime is twofold:
1.) build partnerships with companies that are PMI R.E.Ps and they have agreed to include some of my trainings
2.) offer category 4 PDU courses. These courses/PDUs are just as valid as category 3 PDUs.

Until next time,
Cornelius Fichtner, PMP

Sharon asks…

I want to learn about developing Content Management Systems CMS, can someone point me in the right direction?

I am interested in designing a website that has very specific functionality and an easy to deal with back-end. I have used Joomla in the past, but am interested in making something professional. Should I start from scratch. Is there an industry standard that most professional online services use or do they re-invent the wheel and start from nothing?
But if I did start from scratch, where is a good tutorial. And is there a professional CMS that is better than Joomla and the other open source ones, even if it costs a little money?

Administrator answers:

I’d say use an existing open source package and customize it. Starting from scratch is much more work.

Off the top of my head:
- Joombla (which you noted)
- PostNuke
- PHPNuke
- dot net nuke

Mandy asks…

First time web designer, PLEASE HELP?

I plan on buying Adobe cs4 Web Premium to build my first website. Will I still need a Content Management Service (CMS)?
My website will be mid-range in size with blog posts, user accounts, and plenty of information. Please help!

Administrator answers:

It depends. CMS are not required only if there is a maintenance contract so u can do all the updates using ur tools.

If they – ur clients- want to update web content and change images and stuff then u must provide them a CMS, wich is pretty easy to program once u know some PHP/SQL coding skills

GOOD LUCK!!

Susan asks…

Can you charge money for using a service you don’t own?

Are you allowed to charge money to create a website for someone using a website content management system like Intuit? I don’t own the content management system, but I want to charge for my management of it.

Administrator answers:

Absolutely no problem at all.

Charles asks…

Web Developers: Please Help!?

I plan on buying Adobe cs4 Web Premium to build my first website. Will I still need a Content Management Service (CMS)?
My website will be mid-range in size with blog posts, user accounts, and plenty of information. Please help!

Administrator answers:

It sounds as though this site will be quite the undertaking. CS4 will only help you in designing the graphics and general layout of your site. However, you will most likely need to know PHP, database, and more to do this. I know because a lot of websites have logins, blogs, and such that it would seem relatively simple to do because it’s been done so much. But it’s really rather quite complex stuff. This is why I would strongly suggest you look into hiring a web development professional. This is not a “first website” sort of project. I would just take CS4 and learn to create simple pages and forget the blogs, logins, and such as it’s all way too complicated for a first time designer. Trust me, if this is the first website you have ever designed, the basics will be more than enough to keep you busy in terms of learning.

I would seriously take the time to learn XHTML, CSS, and Javascript first as they’re the basics. I’ve included some links below that you may want to look at.
