Continous coding

getUP

First off, I'm not entirely sure if this is posted in the right area, but I cound't find another one.

About 2 years ago we started our own CMS from scratch with the idea to build our own websites on it - and sell it as an addon product to our webhosting services. In the meantime, our time has been limited and development has dropped more and more.

This is a pity, since the CMS is basically doing everything you can expect from a CMS.

What I would like to do is continue working on it (my time is currently limited - so is our main coder) and release it as open source software. Of course, some backing from a community or people who would like to give us a hand where possible are greatly appreciated.

My question is; who will be interested in participating?

To give you a short overview of what our system currently is capable of:

Our own template system; either MySQL or files - setting per template
Modular
WYSIWYG Editor (tinymce)
Highly adaptable to any website layout, (x)HTML/CSS
Basic SEO module available

This is just a small list. But basically all kind of websites can be supported.

What currently is lacking:

Documentation
Proper bugtracking
Planning
A new name maybe

So we'd need people who can help organizing as well as coders.

I understand that you guys want to see the code before you can say if you are interested yes or no, but please contact me for that. We do not want our name seen in public yet or giving out any details before things are certain.

Only serious replies please.

Thanks.

Make certain that you want the CMS to be open source, and then release the code so that others can critique and contribute.

Maybe the thread should be moved again to the appropriate forum.
Anyway, it's available for download at http://www.badaptive.com/release/ba-2.1.0.tar.gz.

Installing step by step:

Upload the files to your public_html folder
Make sure the 'write' folder and all it's contents are writable (chmod -R 777)
Go to http://www.yourdomain.com/admin/install.php and follow directions

You should be able to login by visiting http://www.yourdomain.com/admin/ with the following information:

Username: admin
Password: password

If there are certain things not working right please let me know.

I don't know, seems like it needs a little more to be "Open Source" 😃

License is incorrect. ERROR 501: Hostname failure. Please contact Sensson

That was after install and while trying to log into admin.

Also, I got quite a few errors during install.

thanks,

So true. Forgot about that.
Updated the original file - so new downloaders will not have that problem.

As for your installation, please replace your "admin/index.php" file with the one located on http://www.badaptive.com/release/ba-admin-index-2.1.0.tar.gz

Could you let me know what errors you received when installing?

Thanks for testing!
