Per, in this case I want my "helper" to be able to change the content, i.e. the look and feel of the site. More authoring than admin, certainly not any fundamental config changes.
Okay. It's more about the skills of your helper then - it could be e.g. wordpress or joomla or some such, or it could be an integrated CMS a la CMS Made Simple.
And thus began the trip up and down the learning curve, as it ain't really all that simple, especially on &*^%! ubuntu. What a crippled p.o.s. They need something like Yast. But, I digress ...
I am stuck at the install step where I have to give the program installer my db username and pw which I assumed was what I used to create the db in the first place but obviously not.
Yes, userid+password is just a set of credentials to which you grant access (to the data). You can have any number of those, with different access rights.
Then I ran out of time again and will pick it up again during the week. It took a while to get to that step because of 3 different php versions installed in ubuntu and the one apache was using of course didn't have the required modules. That's all fixed but what a pain.
Three different php versions - yes, that has got to be confusing. I would just go with the latest, php 7.x.
I fear that I will get "simple cms" all installed and then find out it sucks. I keep hoping otherwise ...
I know a couple of people using it, they seem happy. There are many others though - processwire is another one I know of. I don't personally use a CMS, so I can't recommend one over another. -- Per Jessen, Zürich (6.6°C) http://www.hostsuisse.com/ - virtual servers, made in Switzerland. -- To unsubscribe, e-mail: opensuse+unsubscribe@opensuse.org To contact the owner, e-mail: opensuse+owner@opensuse.org
