new site live

Post by uptoeleven »

My latest site just went live. It's here: www.primevigilance.com

Once I have anonymised the template I intend to share it on here. It has sifr somewhat shoe-horned into it. One of the short-comings of sifr is that in using flash if you have CSS menus (and who doesn't these days) they hide behind the flash except on a mac (not tested in Linux - please let me know). A sifr module is on my to-do list then :) The other thing on my todo list is to fix and update the image map module and remove the hard-coded urls from the database ;)

Can I take this opportunity to recommend CMS Made Simple as a content management system - it is superb

ok template export didn't export properly - have tested the xml'ed version of this and it doesn't include a lot of the other bits and pieces that are in the template, so what I will do is produce a proper package to demonstrate which global content blocks and bits and pieces go where, and the swf, js and css code for the sifr and anything else that is needed. Consequently it's going to have to wait til I have less work on my plate :)

In the meantime, modules and bits on this site:

Mainly formbuilder for the contact pages. Minor modification to the standard form template to wrap it in a div with a green background. Otherwise pretty bog standard stuff I imagine - personally I hadn't used formbuilder before and was completely blown away but I imagine it's all pretty run-of-the-mill stuff  :)
A custom menu template which will be released when I have time
Sitepusher although I didn't get it working and did the migration by hand, which is fine. I think the reason that Sitepusher didn't work has a lot to do with my awful ISP, 1&1, which doesn't give meaningful errors or any kind of error trace that can be worked with, rather than any shortcoming in the CMSMS code. It's coming to something when you're paying through the nose for a dual opteron managed server and they don't give you access to your own error logs. Or let you use MySQL5. Very, very poor showing from 1&1, which is why I no longer use them for new clients.
