nanoCMS Community has closed its doors

Thu, 13 Oct 2011 07:36:24 +0000

The NanoCMS Community has closed its doors, after a lack of community activity in the forum for an extended period of time. Though each month there is still a reasonable amount of downloads of the core packages and related files. The forum will become read only and no new registrations will be allowed.

I would like to thank Kalyan and Zorchenhimer for their contributions, plus other numerous contributors to the nanoCMS Community over the years.

The forum and its resources will still be available for an unknown period of time, and perhaps one day the doors will open again, but the development and support has ceased from core contributors.

Please do not contact me for support, I will not respond to the messages.

Problems viewing pages on external server

Wed, 05 Oct 2011 04:55:19 +0000

Hi,

I have a problem viewing pages other then the home page when I upload my site to an external server.

Currently, I have a working site on my localhost using both wamp and xampp.

The site is in a subdirectory called nanocms - for testing. As I say all is well, however I tried uploading the site to my hosting provider and now all I get is the home page. When I try to access other pages I get 404 file not found errors and even 403 permission denied errors.

I've been beating my head on my desk trying to solve this issue. The .htaccess file is the common one used by nanocms and as it is in a subdirectory I use the Rewrite Base of /nanocms.

I've searched through the various config files etc with no luck. I can't even access the admin pages for back end admin.

Any ideas much appreciated.

Regards
Boony

Tinybrowser session

Thu, 11 Aug 2011 09:41:24 +0000

Hello!

I have question about security setting in tinybrowser.

There are some security configuration in config_tinybrowser.php.

// Session control and security check - to enable please uncomment
//if(isset($_GET['sessidpass'])) session_id($_GET['sessidpass']); // workaround for Flash session bug
//session_start();
//$tinybrowser['sessioncheck'] = 'auth_user'; //name of session variable to check

How can I enable this feature in nanocms?

Thanks!

metadata,tinybrowser,index.php,tweaks

Tue, 19 Jul 2011 00:19:02 +0000

Hi there.
I am testing nano cms comm. 7 on my local server.

I like the flatfile approach, but I may not be able to actually use nanocms, I'm still playing with it.

The metadata tweak, with the optional code to allow a different set of tags for every page is awesome! Oops, except that when I open the site without a page specified, the index.php file is opened and uses the slug,(content) for the home page, however the index.php does NOT have meta tags associated with it, so the tag values are empty. Of course if I specify opening the site with http://sitename/home, the tags DO have values, because I specified them. A search crawler might not notice that the home page has tag data, as it already looked at that page as index.php. Worrisome, and I am struggling to find a fix.

Next is tinybrowser, which comes up blank, I will be looking at the config files of that to see if I can fix that, not really a big deal.

After that, is that I do not use css, (I know, I know, I understand why they decided to use it, I just hate it, it's silly), and my template resides completely within html code in index.php. My static site uses several different template files that I add content to, by hand. The styles are the same in each template, however the code to make the links work into and out of the sites folders are different depending on what the files do. For instance I have a blog, and that uses a different link code than my stories and poems, and my calendar and forums and photo galleries each have unique code requirements to make them work properly as well.

I have used several SQL powered CMS variations, currently I use PHPFusion, before that I used FlexCMS, (I paid money for that upgrade to the pro version)
and of course before that I was handcoding and adding content by hand.

My current CMS uses such a convoluted template system, that I gave up trying to fix it so it looks and works like my original static site, so i use a supplied template that I hate.

FlexCMS uses obfuscation of code fragments to protect their code from being used by anyone that did not pay for it, and I did manage to get it working and looking very very close to my original static site, but now for security reasons I must upgrade to newest version, and of course, with the obfuscation, all my changes to make things work the way I want will be lost in the upgrade.

I have a serious interest in getting a simple flatfile CMS to behave in a sensible manner. :-)

I think, so far, that nanoCMS may actually have the codebase and hooks that will allow me to get exactly what I want from a CMS.

I really really don't like OOP code either, sorry scripters, I started with machine code in the 70s, I have never seen OOP code that was not more of a mess than procedural code, or that could not be written in procedural code that was much clearer to me.

My help question consists of whether anyone is competent, and interested enough to move this forward.

Thank you!!

tinymce 3.4.3.1 (WYSIWYG editor) - LGPL License + TinyBrowser (file manager) GPL

Tue, 28 Jun 2011 17:08:04 +0000

TinyMCE 3.4.3.1 - LGPL License
TinyMCE Author: http://tinymce.moxiecode.com/
TinyBrowser - GPL License Author: http://www.lunarvis.com
nanoCMS tweaker (module) maintainer: Andrew (not author of tinymce)
TinyBrowser Security Code Modification by: Tikakino

This version of TinyMCE is newer than the one bundled with nanoCMS Community 0.7 prep. It also contains tinyBrowser (with the nanoCMS security code additions). Only the tinyMCE has been upgraded in this tweaker, not tinyBrowser.

TinyMCE 3_4_3_1 and TinyBrowser.zip (Size: 954.39 KB / Downloads: 206)

Installation:

Step 1
Please remove any older versions of tinymce from the data\tweaks\ directory. i.e. the tinymce folder and the tinymce.php file.

Step 2
Please don't upload the folder "TinyMCE 3_4_3_1 and TinyBrowser", but its contents to the data\tweaks\ directory.

The structure should look like data\tweaks\tinymce\ once uploaded with a tinymce.php file sitting in data\tweaks\

Step 3
Log into your nanoCMS admin panel and activate if tinyMCE wasn't already activated.

sblog tweak

Tue, 28 Jun 2011 16:48:12 +0000

I added the simple blog tweak (sblog.php) to tweaker directory. also added the folder sblog (that came with the package) into tweaker directory. changed the permissions properly. (recurse into subdirectories).

the tweak was activated. went to interface; added a blog page. ok, page created; back to admin blog interface, added a new post; I get:
slug load error : slug cannot be loaded

Can anybody help me? There were no instructions in the package, so maybe I am missing something like a setting somewhere? Thanks in advance to anyone who can help me.

Much has been written about the metadata tweak, and I've read and tried it all, but it still is creating the following in all the pages:

does anybody have a fix for this? i'm so frustated! (thanks for letting me vent)

cannot get the guestbook tweak to work; no error messages in error log, just does nothing. any suggestions? (I can certainly pay a modest amount for answers.) Thanks ahead of time! btw, followed all directions; even at one point created the directory and file myself; perms ok.

MCE Code is breaking my pages

Fri, 27 May 2011 12:22:03 +0000

I have been searching for an answer to this since I installed Nano, last month. I have everything working the way I want it, using PHP pages that have already been built using Dreamweaver.

The huge issue is that Nano inserts an 'MCE_" or "MCE:" as a prefix to any href source, script, etc. Essentially this has broken every page that my client has tried to modify. Forcing me to restore the backups, overwriting all of my clients recent changes. How can I disable Nano from writing any additional data other than content changes?

Why does this happen anyway? These pages will never validate, let alone work on many browsers.

Support for ISO 8859-1 Charset

Tue, 24 May 2011 20:20:30 +0000

I was surprised that this hasn't been covered at all on this forum, but does NanoCMS support ISO Charsets? I changed all references of UTF-8 to ISO 8859-1 in the config but my clients pages are converted to UTF-8 upon saving. In fact, I would be more comfortable if Nano didn't touch my head at all and just dealt with content. Is there a fix for this?

Thanks!

Unable to See Any Page Other Than home.php

Fri, 13 May 2011 17:09:18 +0000

Hi there,

My goal is to allow my client to edit simple PHP content pages on an existing web page.

Pardon my ignorance, I have been searching the reaches of the web for the last 2 hours, trying to find a solution to this simple problem. NanoCMS seems like the perfect solution for what I need to do but I have hit a snag.

The layout, header and footer, need not be touched, only the content. All content pages are located alongside the layout (index.php) and CSS (style.css) in the server root.

I need to set the pages directory to the root of my server, where all php content files are located. I have tried changing this setting in both config.php and setting.php but have had no luck.

My setting.php looks like this, I have tried dabbling with the config.php also but I'm assuming this is mostly for the operating files of NanoCMS, and not content. Am I doing something wrong?

Code:

$NanoCMS['nanocms_files_dir'] = 'data/';

$NanoCMS['tweaks_dir'] = 'tweaks/';

$NanoCMS['pages_dir'] = '../';

$NanoCMS['areas_dir'] = '../';

$NanoCMS['admin_design_base'] = 'admin-design/';

$NanoCMS['nanocms_base'] = dirname($_SERVER['REQUEST_URI']);

Thanks in advance for your support, and for an excellent CMS product!

The original nanoCMS.in forum is back!

Wed, 17 Nov 2010 17:45:43 +0000

The original nanoCMS.in forum is back from the ashes!

Kalyan the creator of the nanoCMS package has been fantastic and provided me with the original forum. Showing his commitment to the nanoCMS package and community. Plus showing what a great chap he is.

The old forum will act as a great reference to learn, download and aid your nanoCMS experience. Whilst this forum is for the active community and discussion.

Perhaps one day it will be merged with this forum, but for now the old forum has its new home here: http://www.nanocms.co.uk/legacyforum/

Thank you Kalyan.

Content areas + TinyMCE?

Wed, 10 Nov 2010 18:35:06 +0000

Hi,
I ask for the possibility to edit content areas with TinyMCE?

older pagesdata.txt format

Wed, 20 Oct 2010 01:34:26 +0000

I have a few sites that I use NanoCMS on and have had no issues for almost 2 years. Recently one of my sites is having a problem that I can't figure out. All the pages show up in the correct Categories in Pages & Options, however for example http://www.mysite.com/ doesn't point to http://www.mysite.com/home like it used to. I think my pagesdata.txt file is out of whack but I have no idea how to "decode" it to see if I can manually fix the problem.

Is there a link where I can review info on pagesdata.txt?

I did some searches and they all came up with some vulnerability which must for a different version as mine doesn't store the password in this file.
