Content Seed - Content Control

Are you a web site developer? Have you ever wanted to be able to get free of those small tasks that a client may have like changing the hours of the store or putting in new pictures? I have found the software made just for you. It is called Content Seed. The best way to describe this software is for you to go to my on line demo and have a look around yourself at Test Site and the user name / password is easy admin / admin. At least that is what I’ve got it set for currently.

Developed

Content Seed was first developed to help those of us that use Front Page to get away from the small tasks that a client will ask to be done after the job is over. It has been developed to work with other editors as well such as Go!Live, Dreamweaver, HomeSite just to name a few.

Cost

The price is unbelievably low so don’t waste any time in getting your developer’s license today for $249.95 but if you only want to use it on one domain you can buy the single user license for $49.95 but you better hurry. The popularity of this program is going to drive the price up.

Support

The support by the programmer is second to none. I had my site up and running in 20 minutes but it shouldn’t take more than 30 minutes for most people to get their site configured. If you don’t quite understand computers and how to set it up then I found that the programmer (Chris Leeds) to be very helpful.

PC Only

Currently it has only been developed to work best on a PC and in IE but I’m sure that with a little encouragement from the public that the programmer will add other browsers and OS platforms to his program.

Purchase

To purchase this wonderful program go to
Here to Purchase

A few of the requirements as stated on the web site

•Server Requirements
o PHP
o virtually any version
o Get the latest version here
o Permissions
o At worst there are three folders that need special permissions
o Often, the script itself can set the permissions and no intervention is required
o You can get started with just the "write" permission FrontPage will put on your content file
o Deployment will indicate which, if any, settings to change
o As soon as you publish your /generator subweb there are instructions to check these settings
________________________________________
• FrontPage Considerations
o In order to make FrontPage usage with this script totally painless we just don't tell FrontPage they're PHP pages!
o one quick fix will set a windows server to process the PHP code on htm/html pages (no need to change page extensions from .htm to .PHP)!
o by not letting FrontPage know about the PHP your FrontPage components will continue to function and everything works smooth as silk.
o It's not required to run the pages as .htm past the PHP engine but it's a much easier way to work.
o As with all things FrontPage, properly maintained and configured server extensions will go a long way in making your life easier.
o The ability to make a FrontPage subweb, is also a very helpful thing, but not absolutely required.
