RE: [Phpwebsite-developers] myphpNuke

[Bob M. <web...@is...>]

Hi everyone, I have seen a post not to long ago about this portal and saw no
response from anyone...I would like to suggest everyone take a look at it
here http://www.kodewulf.za.net/index.php this portal has a new blocksystem
and here is the quote from the developers:
There are no left-, right-, admin- and mainblock in this system. For this
types of blocks exists only one in the new system. The Custom Block.
You can set every blocktype as an admin block.
You can set the displayorder for the blocks.
You set the side of the block. Left or right.
You set that the block is visible or not.
For the blocktypes other then the customblock you can input a new Title for
this block and add an addional content above or after the original content.

you can also weigh the blocks in a specific order...these guys did a nice
job IMHO...

i think it would make most sense this way. what id also like is to have a
possibility of having a user portal kind of approach. not user submitted
stuff (although they can) but user chosen content.. like choose a 'track'
you're interested in and get news, articles etc on that topic. what i am
thinking is choosing just one topic out of the options available... or if
one of the topics is gardening and the user has no interest on it.. he/she
can choose to ignore it completely. of course the admin could choose to
override this (maybe the main topic IS gardening).

anyway, i managed to accomplish a small victory Friday. phpwebsite will be
considered as the portal for my college. woohoo! what phpws does is enough
for now. im hoping the real deal will be functional when the testing is over
:)
