    Project mention: Website domain setup error | reddit.com/r/Wordpress | 2023-03-30

    So, I am new to all of this but through using namecheap and their c panel when I setup my wordpress.org site I somehow managed to do it as thisismywebsitename.com/dir the only problem with this is when you then go to that without the /dir nothing happens. When I change the website url in the manager to remove the /dir then I can't get anything to work.

    Project mention: Getting your first Software Development Job | dev.to | 2023-01-29

    To help illustrate my point, here's a short rendition of my personal career trajectory. I started out studying Marine Biology. Then taught ESL. Then worked in non-profits in Mexico and Central America. Then became really interested in building online businesses to related to the travel industry. So while living in a small jungle community in Honduras, I decided to teach myself how to make websites. I chose PHP as my first programming language to learn (with CSS and HTML) using the Joomla framework. Living in a small town, which just received dialup internet and lacked running water, I wasn't exactly in tech-hub. But I dedicated the hours and spent many long days (and nights) wrestling with the concepts of a CMS, learning CSS (for IE6 no less) and figuring out how to make a really ugly website. Then an amazing thing happened. Word got out in the town I was living in that I knew how to make websites, and suddenly owner of the internet cafe I had been living at for the past 4 weeks asked me to make them a website. So I did! Then they referred me to others in the town who needed websites and soon I had a side hustle that was allowing me to learn and earn at the same time.

  • Pico

    Project mention: How to Start Your Blog in 2023 | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-02-20

    I'm using https://picocms.org/.

    It is PHP based, works on a cheap limited web hoster.

    The concept is: Upload a markdown file plus associated media, and it does the rest for you.

    For customisation, you can use Twig and CSS, or a predefined theme (I didn't look into these, I wanted a custom appearance).

    For feeds there are plugins, for comments I use a "mail me at [email protected]" approach.

  • winter

    Free, open-source, self-hosted CMS platform based on the Laravel PHP Framework.

    Project mention: best php-based cms/tech choice | reddit.com/r/PHP | 2022-12-28

    Beside Symfony there is Laravel Framework , I will not go into deep difference between this frameworks as it really is just taste of what your team likes more (active record vs datamapper, facade/helpers vs dependency injection, blade vs twig, ...), as already mention above this kind of CMS make sense if Website is just one part of your application and you have to build more then just a simple digital business card / website. In Laravel world there are CMS like October CMS / Winter CMS, which target the same providing a CMS based on the Full Stack Larave framework and give you all features of that framework. Another already mention CMS in Laravel world is Statmatic.

    In a more business feature based CMS but still more like traditional CMS are Typo3 and Drupal, both have there usecase and sure a big community around them with a lot of modules and co. And both allow customization and building, installable plugins and themes. But modern version allow give more control from the system to the dev. We also should not forget of Typo3 called Neos CMS, which has its own way and Framework around it.

    Project mention: The Magic of Small Databases | news.ycombinator.com | 2023-01-28

    I see you decided on Wordpress, if you were going to use a CMS I think Drupal 7 would have been a good choice. Drupal has concept of entities and views. An entity as the name suggests is essentially a table and you can add all sorts of different fields to it. From simple text and number fields to images and fields that lookup other entities thus creating relationships between entities. Views is another construct that lets you choose how to display the entities. As a list of as a table a two possible views. Most of this can be done in Drupal 7 without writing code. I say Drupal 7 because you mentioned Wordpress. Drupal 8 and above is more of a developer framework and requires knowledge of Composer. Backdrop [0] is fork of Drupal 7.
