View Full Version : Best way to automate News updates?


mantra

I have a page where I will be posting all of my news for the week. This page will need to be updated on a weekly basis. I would like to do this through some Content Management System. Something simple.

I've looked on Hotscripts.com and have found nothing so simple. I've seen some that have comment systems, etc, but they don't allow html. I don't need a comment system.

What I need is this:

Option to upload an image to the left of the article. And a place where I can type the article with html support.

That's it, nothing else. This is not a complicated script.

Anyone seen something like this? Can someone create something like this in php for me? If so, how much ?

Thanks

I've found most pre-made CMS aren't that great so I built me own for www.ramprage.com

I have an admin area where I can add articles to the site selected by category and so on. Right now I'm making it so certain members can actually post on the site as well :D

Actually, I see that you have a list of news, then when you click, it goes to that news article.

I just want my news to appear on one page, one after the other. Maybe separated by a horizontal line or something.

Sorry, I should have included that link as well. I just was blantaly pimping a site and wanted to show how nice Coranto is. That is the correct place to download. A google will reveal some other places to help you out as well:

A very very large forum can be found here as well:

Needless to say, Coranto rules me.
