Not happy with the rapid weaver blog. Any suggestions? What about typed?

Not a slide show but, I want the page to be able to hold some photos and they get bigger when you click them Like a grid of photos .

YOU BETTER BE working on that CMS BLOG!

I just released release candidate 2… https://weavers.space/s/cms-for-rapidweaver/wiki/page

I also want a blog where people can search the topics

My blog does this… Here is a page that I have been testing it on. Obviously, the styling is bare bones right now. But you can see the functionality. Home | My Website

Every blog post can have a slideshow, gallery or both… Home | My Website

I’ve gone with Armadillo, although Joe’s CMS is all singing and dancing it’s also $99 per domain. Armadillo is a one-off cost of $40 and can be used with as many domains as you like. Armadillo makes blogging with RW much better. It does support galleries and other file types.

I’ve also gone with Armadillo. Joe makes great products so his option may serve you better. The reason I chose Armadillo is because it offered key options I needed at a specific time (August 2015). Here’s my use situation:

  • I develop course websites (mainly)
  • As such I needed a way for each of my students to blog, and to contribute to their own dedicated web page, with their own login credentials
  • I wanted each student to see their posts/pages and only their posts/pages in the admin area
  • it need to offer markdown support
  • needed to offer super easy Disqus commenting support

I’m probably forgetting a few key factors. Some of the above features Joe’s CMS will have also (I believe), some features are probably unimportant to you … but some of the factors may be relevant to your consideration now or in the future.

Hi Scott, you’ve done a great job with your site. Congrats.

Just wondering which stack you used for your social links?? Very nice hover effects, I like the way they group around the centre icon. Was the website all done in RW?

Look forward to hearing from you.
Cheers

The stack that’s in use for the social links is Share It.

Neil is correct, that is shareit by joe Workman, yes entire site is RW.
Have since moved the block g from typed. Entire site is now controlled by TotalCMS
