 |
|
| Hello! Since I'm planning on creating a little website, I have a need for a news script that DOESN'T use any kind of sql database. Can you recommend me any? Would be really cool if it would be freeware, please don't recommend cute news. ^_^ Thanks. |

Well not specifically a news script, but Limbo (http://www.limboportal.com/) runs off of text files instead of an SQL database and could easily be used as a news type CMS. I haven't used it myself but it would be worth a shot. It looks like it is also based around Mambo (uses the same templates and stuff).

Why would you want something to run of flatfiles when you have a database available? If you really do want it as a file you could use something with a sqlite database.

You don't know that he will have a database... I'm potentially facing a design project where I won't have access to a database, so if I want to store information it will have to be in flat files. Limbo looks like a good choice for a CMS in this case. I'm not sure how security works though, it seems you could just load something like http://somelimbosite.com/userlist.txt and have access to usernames and passwords (unless it stores such sensitive files below the public_html folder)

well, you could always use a php file that requires a password (get-var) for the file to return users/passes.

There is, the main version doesn't use a MySql database.
