Universal Housekeeping [WORKS FOR ALL CMSs]

[JakeyDaddyo]

There's a lot of CMSs which don't offer a housekeeping, which creates a problem for a lot of hotel owners. I am currently in development of a housekeeping which would work for ALL CMSs. The basic principle is if you're missing a MYSQL table, it finds a table with similar columns to the one you don't have, and asks if you'd like to select that one. If you do select that one, and the rows are different, you can change the name of the specified column to fit your column's name, all by entering text in a textbox and pressing enter.

Currently i'm working on the installer

It's far from being done, and most of the install is going to get re-styled later

Sounds cool but from a user's point of view i'd rather

download your housekeeping -> start the installation process -> select what emulator i'm using

instead of looking through my tables trying to get column names correct.

All cms's use the emulators db anyways so there would only be a couple of different structures your system would have to support. Comet, Plus, Arcturus and maybe Phoenix. that should cover like 95% of your target audience. Then you could have the choose column name part as an alternative or even after that step.

Up until news articles, custom features or more advanced CMS's. Heroic, HabboAPI, (maybe?) Chocolatey all have additional custom tables to manage those things.

Also it isn't exactly universal when it would not work for Node based CMS's without requiring users to go through huge steps to add a LAMP stack onto their stuff. Great idea for Rev and Brain though, although both have hk's you can use
