For valuable work on creation of sites you need a good comfortable editor necessarily. There are many requiring paid products for this purpose, but we would like to select free of charge very functional and at the same time of simple in the use editor - Codelobster PHP Edition .
Let us consider some important possibilities and advantages of this program:
OOOGUI is a dynamic CMS that lets you define your data structure (objects, relations between objects, queries on objects), and lets you create public and private HTML pages to view and modify your contents. All through a WYSIWYG interface.
OOOGUI is multilingual, manages role based permissions, and generates for you PHP and SMARTY code that you can customize on your needs.
Implementation and modification to data model, wich is one of the most time consuming and frustrating part in the lifecycle of a project, becomes a very fast process because no code has to be written nor compiled, and the CMS CRUD is automatically generated and updated, at each modification to the data model.
Also queries used in frontend are created with a WYSIWYG interface. You can create as many queries you need on the fly, and associate each one to a template for query results visualization. There is also an interface to create and modify structure layout of each web page.
Software is multilingual, with as many languages you need, and adding/removing languages is an immediate task wich can be performed in any phase of the project development. There are also views to easily find missing translations for each multilingual element.
Fuzzle CMS (http://fuzzle-cms.com) is a promising Flash CMS developed by a group of Russian programmers. The system is claimed to be an extra easy way for creating Flash websites thanks to visual content management. Note, Fuzzle’s website is also made with this CMS.
Advantages of Flash and HTML in one system
A content management system (CMS) is a set of tools that lets you create and maintain your website's content without knowing anything about programming. Fuzzle is a CMS for creating and managing Flash web sites that differs from regular HTML sites mainly by their presentational abilities: Flash technology allows incorporating complex animations and reach multimedia content. However, Flash sites are considered to have such disadvantages as longer time of development (therefore more cost), harder updating, bad search engines ranking. Fuzzle is breaking these stereotypes!
WYSIWYG site maintenance and other Fuzzle features
At the moment a stable version 3.6 of Fuzzle CMS is issued. It has the following main features:
multilinguality;
simple management (convenient visual editing is based on blocks placement );
design integration from a draft within 5 minutes (Flash knowledge is not required);
SEO support (HTML version auto generation, DeepLinking support);
continuously replenished Widget Store availability;
availability of a simple open API for external developers.
While Flash CMS is probably the best way to create a fancy, multi-functional website, there is always a chance to improve the user experience in website management. With exactly this purpose in mind FlashMint has released Mint Editor – a new offline content management software to edit and customize FlashMint XML templates at ease.
Although you wouldn't expect an application with the version number of 2.3.1.5 to contain anything but bug fixes, in the world of mojoPortal almost every release contains new features for the CMS. mojoPortal 2.3.1.5 is no different with a number of changes centered around rich text editors (WYSIWYG). TinyMCE has replaced FCKeditor as mojoPortal's primary text editor.
Tiny MCE Editor Rises To The Top
For a long time now the FCKeditor has been the best editor available out of the box in mojoPortal. It was the only one with the ability to browse and upload images and files, it was the only one with integration for our Content Template System and Content Style System, and it was the only one with a spelling checker. Not anymore! I had not upgraded the Tiny MCE editor in a long time, I had tried to once and it broke and I was busy so I reverted to the working version. But recently we've been having some issues with FCKeditor so I decided to give the Tiny MCE upgrade another try.
Joe Audette, mojoPortal developer, writes that FCKeditor fans shouldn't feel like they're being left behind. mojoPortal also supports the CKEditor. The makers of FCKeditor realizing that the code base for their RTE was more than six years old and needing improvements began CKEditor as its replacement. CKEditor focuses on features such as accessibility and performance improvements that weren't quite there for FCKeditor.
Besides changes for TinyMCE and CKEditor, mojoPortal 2.3.1.5 also includes these enhancements:
New Permissions Tab in site settings
NeatUpload 1.3.18 upgrade
The DOCTYPE changed to Html 5 for included skins
The default 90 days allowed to comment on a new post post can be changed
Removed Site Office
New translations include Hebrew and Polish. The German translation has been updated.

Raphael Mudge sent us an email on his latest project, After the Deadline.
I'm a computer scientist working to fill a gap in current CMS feature sets. It isn't a new social or wireless feature. I'm working to bring spelling, style, and grammar checking to web applications. The technology is available for WordPress and the Open Source TinyMCE editor.
After the Deadline is an exciting plugin that adds a much needed feature often missing in most CMS rich text editors. After the Deadline currently supports plugins for TinyMCE and Wordpress. Some additional bullet points behind the plugin include:
I've been using the contributed Drupal module WYSIWYG API since last Fall. Although the module is open source and free (offered under the GPL), I feel like I got it for a steal at $30 USD.
One of the most frequent criticisms by new users of Drupal has been that the content management system doesn't include a rich text editor (WYSIWYG) in its core. Historically, the core developers have opted to include an RTE option through contributed modules. While the use of non-core Drupal modules for implementing WYSIWYG in Drupal is fine, the development pace, availability, and implementation of a particular RTE module (FCKEditor, TinyMCE, etc) has often varied when major versions of Drupal are released.
The Wysiwyg API attempts to improve the implementation and consistency of RTE's in Drupal. The module is capable of supporting any kind of client-side editor as long as there are support files available to integrate the external library with Wysiwyg API. Editors currently supported by the module include FCKeditor 2.6, jWYSIWYG 0.5, markItUp 1.1.5, NicEdit 0.9.0, TinyMCE 3, TinyMCE 2, and Whizzywig 55 (download).
Up to this point much of the work has been done by Daniel F. Kudwien (known as "sun" in the Drupal community). Since Daniel has invested a huge number of hours on this project he has asked users of the module to voluntarily contribute to the project financially. For someone like me who is not a developer, nor has a lot of free time, giving financially is way of showing appreciation for the open source products you use. Even the smallest financial support can help the community and future development of the software.
If you're not comfortable with donating to an indivudual developer in your open source project, if available, you should consider taking membership in the project's association or foundation. For instance, this week I'll be renewing my membership in the Drupal Association. Many of these open source groups such as the Drupal Association use the membership revenue to support the maintenance and growth of the infrastructure that Drupal.org runs on, as well as to produce various conferences and workshops around the planet.
A couple years ago we decided to use MediaWiki for a wiki implementation at work. Wikipedia uses MediaWiki for their wiki application so we felt it was the right choice for our needs. One concern my team had was that MediaWiki didn't come with a rich text editor (no WYSIWYG).
While a number of us may be fine with using wikitext or HTML to edit our wiki pages, I believe the majority in any organization prefers to edit their pages with a friendly user interface similar to that found on their word processor. At the time, we tried a number of solutions but found neither the suggested TinyMCE or FCKeditor implementation integrated that well with mediaWiki. So for our project we settled with wikEd, an editor that still required users to work with wiki syntax but surprising a very good tool for most users.
During a lunch conversation last week with Deane Barker of Gadgetopia and Blend Interactive, I mentioned my frustrations with MediaWiki not having available a good WYSIWYG solution. Deane suggested that I look at a more recent implementation of MediaWiki plus FCKeditor. This project is being supported by the developers of FCKeditor themselves.
"Amazing numbers! After only 6 months of the announcement of our first million downloads, another half a million can now be added to that incredible milestone. Yes, one and a half million downloads [of FCKeditor]!"
