CMS Made Simple Forums

It appears that there are actually two distinct components to the cms that are not properly combined.  On the one hand the directory structure and various files of the cms, and on the other hand it is the MySQL database it uses. I am confused about the interaction between them.  Does anyone have any...

Ok, I did re-install over the existing with the latest version, but nothing got better. The interesting thing I noticed was that the program assumes a new install.  During the installation routine, it seems to require new things, fails to explain what it means and what it needs entered in the blanks...

Yes, it might.  But I can't help wondering what it is I'm trying to accomplish.  Since I don't have a standard to compare to, I don't thing we can know everything is right until we are able to compare. It is one thing to get the info back into the list, and another to use it, and yet another to know...

I suggest a section of the documentation, or just of the web site in general,...

Many thanks, Mark.  Everything is just great! And it looks good, too. I must say that I believe that I have tried every single CMS offered on the Fantastico menu, as well as checking out so many others, and CMSMadeSimple is by far the best at the outset.  It is also quite easy to install by one's se...

Thanks for the very promising CMS.  I look forward to trying it out. Right now I need a little clarification before I go further in my install procedure.  In this case, as in anything having to do with computers, we do need to be precise. What exactly should the directory structure look like once th...
