PostNuke

I created them because I have a client who is using postnuke as the CMS and I needed to have a bit more consistency with respect to the look/feel of the graphics.

Although I do have to admit I am going to design other sets that aren't as cartoonish/colorful so they fit an elegant interface. I'm also working on creating a better heirarchy with respect to the admin section as a work around until development gets around to addressing this topic.

Anyway....take a look and enjoy.

can anyone gie me an idea how this might be achieved? I guess changing the news module and adding a date to the mysql database would be a start but how much more would be involved ?

1) Final image should be no more than 5 k
2) All text should be readable, san serif fonts -
3) all entries should be supplied in both .psd, .jpg, and .gif formats
4) logos will be posted to an image gallery on a postnuke system yet to be determined. Most likely www.postnuke.com, graphics.postnuke.com, or testnuke.com as some initial neutral parties.
5) A vote script will determine the entries, please no duplicate votes.
6) The winning logo will be integrated into many postnuke systems. Please remember, the psd file should be included to facilitate ease of custom graphics that integrate with the theme.
7) submit as many as you like.
8) Images should be no larger than 89X95, this is the current size of the graphic displayed on postnuke.
9) Entries will be merited on readablity as well as graphic impact. All decisions are final by the postnuke core dev team
10) Contest shall run until 12/31/2001 . New logo posted 01/01/02

I plan to further add code to distinguish other things like Htdig, wget and anything else I can find. Why you ask....just for fun.

Check it out here.

The "edit homepage" option has also been removed, since I can't imagine anyone using it on my site, so this reduces the navigational clutter.
You can see this version of user.php at http://www.webreachforpeace.org; it's in the downloads section "other Post-Nuke downloads."

I'm not currently up on the CVS but I'd guess that Rogue will address these issues. It's easy enough if you know some php to edit these things out. The problem is that the people who have sites for "non-techies" who are likely to be intimidated by all the options are also likely to be "non-techies" themselves, and not know how to edit out those options which are really "techie" (like word count and number of views in sections, for example). It would be nice indeed if we had a central place for less-techy versions of things for newbies. Anyone wanting to post such "hacks" is welcome to do so at www.webreachforpeace.org; we've also got a "tech project page" which can function for such announcements, for the moment. But a more centralized place for non-techie PN newbies would certainly be a nice plus.

How to do it?
1) Start Internet Explorer.
2) Goto your site: e.g.: http://www.jan-mantkowski.de/index.php and save it as index.html.
3) Publish this index.html and the corresponding folder index_files at you website.
4) DONE.

What will happen?
The next time a guest visits your page index.html will we displayed instead of index.php. So the first page of your site is now search engine friendly.

What will you get?
- First page loads a lot faster.
- All links will work.
- Works with IE and Opera (Tested with IE 5.50 and Opera 5.12).
- Your site will be indexed by all search engines, not only Google, which is (as i know) the only search engine that indexes dynamic pages.

What will you loose?
- The first page is no longer dynamic.
- So content will not change.

Work arounds:
a) Remove date and time from saved index.html
( Have a look at http://www.jan-mantkowski.de and compare it with the original http://www.jan-mantkowski.de/index.php).
See? No time.
So a guest might not even notice that he is visiting a "outdated" page.

Have fun!
