How to Install Siteframe through Cpanel


Siteframe is a free content management system that was developed for community based websites. Siteframe allows a community group to share their pictures, stories, create blogs and enroll in certain activities. Users are not required to have any programming language to use Siteframe content management system.

You can change the default Siteframe template by editing the provided files. Once you have edited the file, you should save it. When you update it to a new version, all the changes you made in the template files will be overwritten. For example, you copy the index.tpl to myindex.tpl and make some changes to it. After that, you should add the index.tpl = myindex.tpl to the custom.inin file. The custom.ini must be located in the same directory of template.ini.

You can also integrate the FCK editor to your Siteframe site. To install the FCK editor on the Siteframe site, you should download it at fckeditor.net.  However, the FCK editor cannot work with comments in the Mozilla Firefox browser.

WidgEditor is another text editor that can be integrated into your Siteframe site. You can download widgEditor at themaininblue.com/experiment/widgEditor/. WidgEditor is not compatible with Internet Explorer. Many people pointed out that text entry is slow in Internet Explorer when using WidgEditor.
