vb with custom made cms built on vb

[Jordeh]

I bought vb last month and customized it a lot so that I could easily add content myself through the easy to use vb admin panel. Quickly it became to large to put in the admin panel so I made my own 'cms panel', a screenshot is attached!

The site is here: http://www.wutangcorp.com

Comments, suggestions, other feedback is welcome :D

great decision to make the change from phpBB to vB it feels alot better on that site now.

btw what's Warcloud doing with himself these days?

[Tony G]

Design is looking very good. I like your CP too. Very neat. :D

Not to shabby.... I like the menu.

And to everybody else, thanks for the comments!

love it great work

Nice site, but I hate it when I can not use my back button on my browser, why do people find the need use this feature

[Jordeh]

How come you can't use it? It should work on all pages cause I haven't messed with anything that could distort the function of the back button.

However, there's a flash redirect in an iframe (to see if the user has flash installed or not) on the first page, maybe thats why you can't use the back button if you only press once, I guess you need to click on it three times then.

Can why download this cms thing of you.

[Jordeh]

No sorry you can't. Even if I had it available for download it wouldn't be useful for your site since everything is pretty specific for this site only.

looks good!

I think it look sgreat but the file that it keeps wanting me to downlaod each time gets a little annoying. ;)

[Jordeh]

Huh, what file?

[Erwin]

Good job. I didn't get any weird file or back button problems. :)

Hmmm....I think I found your problem, it's between the keyboard and your chair. :p

[Boofo]

Here's the file name of what Flashget opens up and tries to dowbload every time I click on the link.

wtcspotlite.mp3

[Jordeh]

That's really weird since the mp3 is internally loaded by flash. Do you have the latest flash plugin installed? Well I guess you do since we also have flash detection on the site.

It might be that extra piece of software (Flashget) that's doing that on purpose. Haven't heard anyone else talking about this though.

[Jolten]

This is really nice... ever think of releasing it.. or selling it?

Flashget is my download manager. The flash must be triggering it somehow. It's no big deal. But I thought you should know about it in case you hear it from anyone else in the future. ;)

I know and there is no way to fix that either. I have tried. :(

ROFLOL...I know the feeling! ;)

Some more pictures of the content management panel :D

One screenshot of the discography, how to add an album or single etc. with all the options

Other one is a screenshot of an image I just uploaded (also through the cms) and now I'm creating a thumbnail of it (the yellow/transparent square is draggable). PHP and ImageMagick cut out the square from the original file to create the thumbnail :D

[Jordeh]

This is really nice... ever think of releasing it.. or selling it?I rather release small hacks, I'm not sure if I'll ever release this.

I don't think I could handle it all on my own, to give support to people that download it you know. Plus I think other people are already doing this right?

[Jolten]

I don't think I could handle it all on my own, to give support to people that download it you know.

That's a very valid point. Creating something and creating something, releasing it and then supporting it for even 20 users can be two very different things.

Unfortunately there are many off us out here than can fix, alter and ensure things run great, but we just can write the stuff from scratch.:)

[bob46802]

sorry, i think its way too dark. need more color. its not very functional.

[Anat]

I don't see the forums in the original link... don't see much of a site - just a link to another site...

The thumbnails of the cp look very impressive! I wish I knew how to do those things!
