Showcase: Vanilla CMS application

SheriffenSheriffen ✭
edited November 2010 in Vanilla 2.0 - 2.8
Hey!
I have since march this year been working on a small (but growing) community ( Jesus People - unfortunately in swedish) completely based on vanilla.

I have built my own support-kind of chat application but the application I mostly want to present is my CMS application

Here is some inpiration to all you coders out there:

Look & feel of the site, showing dynamic menu and usermenu

Showing the administration of the pages

The actual heart, the editor. Here you set parent pages, modules with asset and info, permission, urlcode etc etc
image

I have been considering releasing the CMS as a public application but as it is now it contains far too many site-specific details.

Please tell me what you think and I'd love to answer more questions and give more tips!

Don't forget visiting Jesus People to see what it looks like IRL!

ps. I love vanilla

    I'm sorry I haven't set up a test environment yet but I guess I could, but just not yet.
    I'll let you guys know when I do!

    I'd be very interested to test it! Not much of a programmer myself but I'd love to help out if I could.

    Hello,

    I'm amazed at the work you've done.
    I recently discovered vanilla (was searching for an alternative to classic forum software) and I have to say that I'm very excited with the beauty and ease of use.

    but your work seems to push vanilla to a full fledged cms.

    I'm looking forward to getting a grip on it, should you release it!
  • SheriffenSheriffen ✭
    I'll give you a demo soon but there is loads to fix if it's gonna be released for going with the default vanilla. It's customized for my specific needs. But I guess I've come a long way, something to build on.

    This would be an incredible addition to Vanilla!

    Thanks for all feedback! I havent been working on this project for a while but I will be looking into releasing this on github to get it going big time!

    It's a pretty decent codebase but I have to make some things dynamic that are very site-specific today. Hopefully I will get it going this week!

    Looking forward to it Sheriffen. You could even just put it up on github, and let us help clean it up.

    For all interrested: I will be releasing this application soon in the Addons area but until then you can check-out the project on https://github.com/JockeGustin/vanillacms
    It's under heavy development and is going through deep rebuilding.

    Please contact me if you want to help, it actually works pretty good and is a good core to build on!
