Well It has been almost 4-6 months since my last release(MapleVotingJS). Today I'm back to release my first ever CMS! This CMS is completely coded with precision. I implemented features I always wanted to code in this CMS. This is going to be my first ever CMS so I wanted to go with a bang. You will be surprised by this CMS. Everything is made from the ground up by myself. I put almost a month works into it debugging and testing features that are good to put in this CMS. THIS IS A DEVELOPMENT THREAD I'm currently working on some bugs and optimizing the coding and injections. I decided to do a development thread to show you the progress because this WILL be released.

Looks really good, keep it up.
What is the font used in the "MESSAGE" portion of the character info area?

 

[sunnyboy]

Why not change the name back to the original one? It was only changed to MapleByte for Dan.

 

[iAkira]

Lost the PSD so I altered the original design to my likings and came out better:3

 

[greenelfx]

Don't really like the main CMS design below the nav bar.
Features sound decent though.

 

[Evolized]

Well I like the logo, Nick did a nice job on it.

 

[Entourage]

Looks great, keep up with dev pls

 

[oxysoft]

[KenoRIK10]

Very nice! Keep it up. Looks very awesome especially the layout or the overall view of it.

 

[iAkira]

Alright so I decided to spice this CMS even more by adding a template System, The default design is the one above, and I'm going to create two other designs. I'm going to give you updates of the second design I'm currently creating and the 3rd design will be shown when I release this CMS.

Here's what I've come up with so far for my second design:

[iAkira]

Same, I'm in the process to work the rest of the layout but the background is something I really have to think hard on..

If you need any photos from JMS, you can ask me.

 

[DrServer]

Looks pretty nice, it has the basic stuff, i liked the idea of "Character Info", pretty nice design, and good luck :
I always liked your projects, i guess its gonna be a good release, and if you ever need a help, you can PM me

 

[Bizarre]

This is a lot better than the usual poop you see.

Also, I read "Fully blown CMS" as "Fully Blown Aids" for some odd reason.

 

[iAkira]

Lmfao^. Well this project will come to a halt for a week or so, I am currently caught up with some stuff. This doesn't mean development will stop and this will get closed down, When I say released I mean WILL be released. ;3

 

[Zaytrex]

Yay we finally get to see something awesome released
It's been a long long time since something like this has happened in the maple web dev.

 

[Dynamik]

I am not sure if you are aware of this. But after MapleByte closed, there is another server who used the very same CMS, since it was "passed on". This server would be MapleAeon. Are you sure they wouldn't get angry at you if you released it?

 

[iAkira]

Well Prabh the server's sponsor manage to get revision 5 when I was working with them when MapleAeon was being worked on then I split from them and went with Five to develop a v.97 when GMS was v.97 but I went ghost and so did five so the server opened for a month. Then 2 months ago I decided to revive this project to a CMS because of its potential. Like mentioned Prabh is using the revision 5 of this CMS but check all the work done since then..

Changelogs
-Added Opera support(latest)
-Almost completed the second design concept

 

[Leo The Fox]
