What sNews is
sNews...
is one of the world's lightest PHP and MySQL-based Content Management Systems available under the
Creative Commons Licence on the web.
Originally developed by Luka Cvrk, of Zagreb, Croatia, sNews is currently available in its latest version as
sNews 1.7. It includes several major changes over its predecessor (1.6).
sNews allows developers to build either a blog or news site, or both, in which content can be added, edited and deleted through a normal web browser without the need to know any coding. If you are comfortable using MS Word, then you will quickly become comfortable with the sNews Administration system. Each Admin panel is very simple and easy to understand.
It should be noted, however, that the core sNews engine is a relatively new project in terms of web application technology. Integration of other templates, modifications or add-ons requires a sound understanding of PHP and XHTML scripting languages. The good news is that sNews is perhaps the easiest of all CMSs to integrate with just about any HTML-based template.
A lot of new documentation... on how to install, use and modify sNews... is now available on the
Official sNews Help Center page. Mods and addons are constantly under development through a fast-growing community which meets daily almost 24 hours a day on
the sNews Forums, where you are most welcome to register and join in. You can find answers to most problems and questions you may encounter in getting sNews to run. You can also keep track of the ongoing development process and take advantage of modifications that add functionality to sNews.
sNews.ca is dedicated to promoting and enhancing the sNews CMS engine. We will feature templates for sNews, tips on how to install and use an sNews-powered site, along as well as useful modifications and add-ons that work with sNews. sNews.ca will always be a work in progress, and fellow sNews developers are encouraged to share their work here.
