StaticNuke is an extension for PHP Nuke. Its main goal is to provide an automated system to manage the static content of a PHP Nuke website. Content
Managers and Webmasters globally use content that does not get regularly updated. Fansites of any genre will have a lot of information that will remain the same.
Things like episode listings on TV Show sites, game specifications or system requirements on computer game sites and many more instances require a page to be
displayed that will more than likely never change more than once or twice in the whole life of the website. Getting such information included in PHP Nuke is not too
difficult, and there are several ways of doing it, but all of them require the creation of a module or block.
This is where StaticNuke steps in with a little automation. StaticNuke is designed to create a module for each category of information you might require on your
website. This way, the category will show up in the Modules, and can be treated and used exactly the same as any manually created module. StaticNuke takes this
one step further however, because each category can display any number of pages that you require. You can upload whatever you want to be displayed on a page
and then associate the Page to the Category in a very simple and user friendly way.
Basically, StaticNuke makes your static content be automated, so you can create your entire website from the PHP Nuke control panel, and only ever have to use
HTML to do it. You can use this system with no knowledge of PHP or how to make modules for PHP Nuke, it is all automated. The interface is simple and user
friendly, and its is very easy to use.
StaticNuke is also a 100% open source project, so whatever you download you can modify, use, and basically do whatever you want with. As long as you stick to
the GNU GPL with what you do, it is completely fine. As a courtesy, I have asked that all developments of these scripts dont ask for permission, but keep me
informed. You dont have to do this if you develop it further, but I would really love to know that what I am doing hereis not completely futile, and is of some use to
someone.
Support the Open Source community! Keep your projects free and open, and the world will work a lot smoother. The second release of StaticNuke. Updates
include...
Updates included:
1. Improved the formatting of the category creation / deletion process output. If something goes wrong then it should be easier to read if you hit stop before the page refreshes.
2. A check has been added to ensure that there are no spaces present in the category name - this is because the category name is used to create a module directory on your server and PHPNuke module directories cant contain spaces.
