Accepting any ideas & help as always.

Enjoy :thumbup1:

Ahh, spence.
You posted the older version a while back.
This is a great improvement.
i'll get back to you with my feedback.

EDIT: Overall, its perfect for what my development team is looking for.
The versatility is amazing.
I can't really give you proper feedback until I properly use this and notice the mistakes when doing so.
I have high doubts of mistakes anyway.
Since this is opensource.. when is it released? or how can i get my hands on a copy?

Wow, great improvements!

But I believe you should work on a better looking style.

Yeh, i agree.
There are 2 styles, (other two are just flipped versions) and they aren't good.
But it does support custom themes, which is good.

nice work s-p-n

Now I have a serious question, what makes this CMS different from others. Such as PHP-Fusion, or even blogging CMS'?

PHP-Fusion has reputation. It comes with a forum, article builder, user platform, and can be updated by programmers who know PHP-Fusion.

WysGui is a fresh, new CMS. It utilizes a developer-friendly atmosphere, where any experienced developer can jump right in and start coding any language that complies with their web server through modules. It comes with a fair content managing system as well. Certain things are under development, such as a handy feature which will let you place content on multiple pages. As it stands, you can place a module or piece of content anywhere on a single page, or any one place on *all the pages. Already, the content managing attributes are stronger than most systems, yet I've only just begun.

What makes it different than other CMS'? You tell me.
Here's a few facts to get you started:

What Makes WysGui Better for the Advanced Developer?
- Create a web-site the way you want it! Design it from head-to-toe from the stylesheet to the template to each individual page!
- Easily add & manage your content & modules!
- Create an advanced module, page, or framework with ease inside your Admin Panel! Utilize EditorArea to write, manage, & debug your code!

I cringe every time I even call it a CMS, because I feel it's so much more.

Mind you, I make all of the WysGui features within WysGui itself, and I have since I first started & named it Smart Site.

Of course, a few times it broke because a doctor can't perform brain surgery on himself. When that happens, I use notepad++.
I can, however, create an independent page to work on the brain, but that's just too inconvenient.

Nice one s-p-n,,

Ideas:
-User system
-Menu at the very top?

Can be done.

What sort of things on the menu; nameless Admin Panel 16x16 icons? (names would overcrowd)

I can do that with the Icon_Map

I dont know why people like you would spam this thread, atleast put something useful in it.

Also, this is an awesome open source developer content system! Just because it looks basic, dosent mean it really is basic eh. Sorry for being a bit nieve when i posted before.

Cardell and I have little.. Non-redundant conversations.

I know what he meant by that post. Two words are worth so much more.

I'm sure he'll come back after trying it and tell us all how it works in action.

With that said,

The download is out,

WysGui 2's Unleashed
[Check first post for links]

s-p-n, WysGui is gettin even better!
Thank you so much, I might use this at the near future.
Good work, keep it up!

Very nice, but theres something with it, i think you should change the colors a bit!

anyways very nice!

i might play with it and make a ...nicer theme later


seems really nice, thanks. im adding some AJAX to the main menu and content loading.

i love the open-ness of the coding, its easy to integrate with pretty much anything.
