Describe TextpatternEvaluation here. to:
h1. Evaluation of the Textpattern CMS Back to EvalCMS ---- Evaluated version: gamma 1.18a (April 2004) :''Size'' OK : unzipped size [0.5MB], plug-in architecture [yes], coverage of items below [most]. :''Platform'' OK: structured PHP [yes], MySQL [yes] :''Install and setup'' OK: time to go operational [5min], web-based config [all], multiple sites in one CMS instance [yes] :''Plain text edit'' OK: wiki-like input [no], textile [yes] (textile native, same author ;-) :''WYSIWYG editing'' KO: wysiwyg [no], configurable [n/a] -- maybe could hack txp core. :''Generated HTML'' OK: valid XHTML [yes] (partly depends on template used). :''Templating'' OK: user control [variable-template], website section differentiation [yes], snippet templates [yes]. :''Domain-specific applications'' OK: mechanism for app inclusion [both]. :''User management'' OK: users and roles [roles], user groups with privileges [no]. :''Content structuring'' OK: hierarchical content [multilevel], hierarchical URL [complex-rewrite], hierarchical presentation [blog/tweaks]. :''Localization'' OK: L10N and I18N issues separate in implementation [yes]. :''Metadata'' OK: can set metadata [page], metadata supported [keywords] -- but see grumbles. :''URL features'' OK: link contents [id/titles] (can choose in setup), search-engine friendly URLs [tweaks] -- via .htaccess content type forcing. :''Archiving'' KO: supports archiving (rather than deleting) old content [no], content is versioned [no]. :''Statistics'' so-so: usage stats gathered [yes], can create polls [no]. :''Documentation'' so-so: templating manual [rough], programming manual [rough]. h4. Praises: * installation -- web wizard, up and running in 3 minutes * content structuring -- easy to understand, hierarchical categories, menu definition based on them: it's a snap! where is the catch? read the grumbles... * localisation -- easy, just edit lang file; however... * templating -- page/section templates defined within the CMS itself => easy to custom-develop; templates can include PHP code => easy to wrap current apps * plug-ins easy to develop and plug in ;-) h4. Grumbles: * localisation -- charsets seems conflicting: pages generated use UTF-8, but UTF-based lang file displays rubbish * templates -- difficult to export/share; would benefit from user params on forms, and txp: tags in stylesheet def. * ''content structuring'' -- hierarchical categories, but these can't be used to hierarchically structure the content presentation... so one must hack with sections, via name conventions to express hierarchy... * WYSIWYG editing -- I have not tried to put @@htmlarea@@ as the article editor, as it would mean changing @@txp@@ core. * applications -- very few plug-ins (at the time of writing) for common things (polls, mailing, calendars, events) |
