Hey guys,

Due to compatibility issues between various extensions installed here, the HTMLFormatter extension, which would enable you to not have to enter HTML markup to format your posts, is not working.

Till a viable solution is found, please use HTML markup to format your posts. I apologize for the temporary inconvenience. In the meantime, use the opportunity to learn HTML without a WYSIWYG ;)

Do you have a style guide?

admin — Fri, 04 Apr 2008 09:09:46 -0600

A fellow WOA member shared this with me and I figured you all will benefit from it as well:

What is a Content Management System, or CMS?

OmniPotens — Thu, 25 Dec 2008 08:09:53 -0700

At the risk of stating the obvious, it could be said that a content management system is quite simply - a system that manages content.

However, it is precisely the obviousness of what a CMS is and does, that has created a degree of confusion amongst 'would be' purchases of such a system. Wrapped up in a seemingly harmless statement is enough ambiguity to enable all kinds of products to masquerade as content management solutions.

To fully understand what it is a CMS does, we have to first define a) what it is we are referring to when we talk about content b) what it is we understand under its management and c) what do we mean by a system. At the risk of sounding 'obvious', only when you know what content it is you want to manage can you 'filter' (and I mean filter) through the myriad of options that are available - and not be 'bamboozled' by sales speak into taking the wrong product.

What is Content?

Content is in essence, any type or 'unit' of digital information. It can be text, images, graphics, video, sound, documents, records etc - or in other words - anything that is likely to be managed in an electronic format.

What is Content Management?

Content Management is effectively the management of the content described above, by combining rules, process and/or workflows in such a way that its electronic storage is deemed to be 'managed' rather than 'un-managed'.

What is the CM System?

The system itself is definable as a tool or combination or tools that facilitate the efficient and effective production of the desired 'output' using the managed content.

To combine all three, we can say;
A CMS is a tool that enables a variety of (centralised) technical and (de-centralised) non technical staff to create, edit, manage and finally publish (in a number of formats) a variety of content (such as text, graphics, video, documents etc), whilst being constrained by a centralised set of rules, process and workflows that ensure coherent, validated electronic content.

(See you next time... Merry Christmas!)

Module forms

Wilky — Tue, 01 Dec 2009 11:28:44 -0700

Hi all,
I must create a contact module, for a site, a little particular: the site propose services that are bumigned to professionals chosen by the site administrator.
It would have to work this way: the customer write on a site and an email arrive to the administrator; he decides which professional bumign the work to ( and send him the contact).
From that moment the professional and customer comunicates only by the site and on the site must stay the archive of the emails
that they exchange (visible to the administrator).
What I would like is that the professional and the customer comunicate only by the mail to the site, no need to use username and pbumword: it must be the site that manages coded mailboxes that are bumigned to them but they don't have to be in contact in others ways and don't have to ask anything else to the customer.
Does anyone of you know if there is a cms or script already ready or similar to this that I can modifiy?
Thank you for your suggestions

How does your site look in various browsers?

admin — Tue, 08 Apr 2008 11:23:19 -0600

Have you ever pondered on the above question but don't want to go through the hbumle of downloading every browser known to man and/or frequently have to update to the latest browsers?

Look no more. Turn your browsers to http://www.browsershots.org/ and check off the browsers you want to test your site in. The site then offers you screenshots of what you site looks like in the browsers you checked off.

Pretty amazing, isn' it? ;)
