I am looking for a CMS / Media Management System to distribute content to several terminal or kiosk systems.
_ Individual trees for each individual station
_ Content integration into defined templates, there’s no need for a brilliant online represenation…
_ multiple languages
_ As a supplement it would be useful if the individual pages or media elements could be extended with individual xml properties (tween parameters, autostart, loop, etc)
_3 Export a tree to navigation xml, text xml and content elements
_4 trigger the distribution of the content to the machines on the local network
(control extern pc via net use, copy files via rsync…)
We’ve done a few things with Typo3, but Typoscript and the intransparent framework of Typo3 gets on my nerves!
Maybe someone has a tip for a flexible and extensible CMS to start with. php based would be nice.
we have an inhouse cms for exhibits based on http://activeadmin.info/
, is easily installed with http://railsinstaller.org/ and can be extended with whatever you like. we do our text to texture stuff with this, basically our language backend.
uses sqlite
runs as service in background
can output xml
is fast as hell
does use almost no resources
to connect to it, i made a plugin in v4 which works according to our database structure…basically just some xml fishing
i would like to reopen this discussion because a lot has changed in vvvv since this has been posted and i still have no idea how to handle a lot of content. :D
The question is what CMS would be best to work with VVVV and how do you use it?
Since there are new HTML Texture Nodes based on Chromium i was wondering if it would be possible to use Wordpress as a CMS but also to Layout the Content with Wordpress Themes.
It would be great to be able to create menues in wordpress, get a tree with all absolut html liks with styled content / Videos / Audio in Chromium to display in VVVV. Basically a way to remove all Layout and Content&structure work from VVVV.
I have no experience working with SQL Nodes. Any Hints on what i would need to read up and especially experience on working with different CMS’s would be great.
The Key idea here would be to make it easier for users to create interactive displays with interchangeable content. In the end it would be nice to be able to create Menue designs in VVVV that would instantly work with (if possible) wordpress.
The main reason im asking for wordpress is the amount of themes / Plugins it offers and that its easy understandable for authors.
Would this all be possible and easier with a different (free) cms?
Got it working with wordpress, have not figured out how the read out wp_menue but can read, sort by Cathegory open with direct url via html renderer/texture.
This right here helped me to figure out the basics:
So if I get this right, Using Drupal and SqLite would have the main advantage that it wont need a Server Process? Or are there key features like better support for media files.
I still like the idea of creating content layout in wordpress since its so easy.
