Django CMS is used by many people. Please explain your problem on the django-cms mailing list. I guess it can be solved 
easily.


The above tutorial suggests to use an own model with a 1:1 relation-ship to the 
page model. I use this pattern often if
I want to extend an app. It is developer friendly and you won't notice the fact 
that there is one more SQL query.

(Disclaimer: I'm one of the main developers of FeinCMS.)

The best place to ask questions about FeinCMS would be the
django-feincms mailing list. It's true that development isn't very
active this month (yet), a lot happened since the last release though.
You can see the breakdown here:

http://feincms-django-cms.readthedocs.org/en/next/releases/1.7.html

Development happens on the `next` branch in the github repository.
`master` normally does not get much activity since `master` tracks the
official maintenance branch (v1.6.x at the moment).


Thanks,
Matthias

I was hoping to replace PHP sites with some web2py CMS, but at the end
have decided to go with Django and deploy Mezzanine which is really in
a good shape.

Hi Sean,

I'm the lead developer of Mezzanine. I can't offer too much of a
comparison as I'm only very familiar with Mezzanine itself, but
extending Mezzanine's Page model is a foundational concept in
Mezzanine - one that it's specifically designed to do. Have a read
here for more info:

http://mezzanine.jupo.org/docs/content-architecture.html#creating-custom-content-types

If you have any further questions about Mezzanine, please hit up the
mailing list:

https://groups.google.com/group/mezzanine-users

Cheers,
Steve

Growlf,

Thanks for your input on this. Really appreciate it and I am sorry for
my delayed response - I completely missed your reply until today.

I agree with you on this. Seems a little foolish to attempt to
reinvent the wheel when there are plenty of options about.

I ended up ditching fiber pretty quickly due to lack of documentation
and ended up choosing FeinCMS, which has been great, although lacking
in some areas - either that or my knowledge/understanding of the docs
is lacking to the point where I am coming to a grinding halt with the
MPTT side of things.

Anyway, cheers again for your response.

Dave

Re: Anyone got experience of using django-fiber cms?

Actually, Django-CMS does have front-end editing, but it seems that
the latest edition is a bit wonky atm with regards to the interface
and the documentation on actually using it.  I think the developers
are moving towards a more stable MPTT solution, and this motion seems
to be the cause.

I have used both, and have found that while the user interface of
Django-Fiber is more eye-pleasing, it is lacking many of the features
that Django-CMS offers.  It also does not have the sizable plug-in
list for immediate additions of functionality of Django-CMS. Nor does
it seem to be as easily extended to include an existing Django app.
This last issue is a total deal breaker for me, at least.

I would suggest using Django-CMS and adding your fixes, plug-ins and
documentation to the project rather than home-rolling yet another
CMS.  Unless, that is, you have a pretty good idea of what you want
and it is definitely not something that can be added to an existing
system.  This would give you far more options and maintainability.
The Django-CMS guys are very active and responsive to outside input
and help, too.

Just my two-cents.

Anyone got experience of using django-fiber cms?

[Dave Sayer]

Hi,

I am currently deliberating over writing a bespoke CMS or using a
ready rolled one for a client. I have limited experience with
Python/Django beyond the standard admin interface and building a
pretty simple photo portfolio site.

I have tried django-cms and didn't like the functionality - didn't
seem very intuitive for a user with limited tech knowledge. So now, I
am looking at django-fiber but again, the backend admin seems a little
lacking in intuitiveness for the average joe user. I do, however, like
the fronend editing functionality. It just seems a little basic for my
needs and the documentation is pretty scant.

Does anyone have any experience of using fiber and have any example
sites running on this?

Cheers,

Dave

There are a number of CMS options for django.

You can find a nice comparison here:
http://djangopackages.com/grids/g/cms/

I've used Mezzanine and it's very good, but might not be the best for
a large newspaper site.

It all depends on your needs, so I'd probably try out a couple of the
CMS's on that list to figure which you like best and then customize it
from there to fit your needs.

Re: Is there any Open Source Django Newspaper CMS?

[shacker]

Django is used by a lot of newspaper / news sites, but they generally
use it to build the CMS that fits their exact needs. That's kind of
the point of using a framework like Django rather than a CMS like
Drupal - you don't suffer from the "opinions" of the CMS, and instead
use the tools provided (plus re-usable apps) to build a system that
fits your org perfectly.

That said, newspapers do have a lot of needs in common, and Ellington
has been the big commercial Django CMS tuned to that need. But the
Knight Foundation, who have sponsored innovation and advancement in
news publication for decades, have just awarded nearly a million
dollars to the Bay Citizen and the Texas Tribune (two big Django news
shops) to develop an open source Django-based CMS tuned to news needs:

http://www.niemanlab.org/2011/03/wordpress-for-news-orgs-knight-gives-bay-citizen-texas-tribune-975000-for-open-source-cms/

Until that's release, your best bet is to do what all news orgs using
Django do - use it to build the CMS you need.

Hello all, I am new to django.
I am heard about Django is comes from a Newspaper group, but never found a 
Newspaper CMS. (Not meant Django-CMS)
PHP has many Newspaper CMS like Joomla! and Drupal. If anyone tell me where 
can I find Open source CMS for Newspaper written in Django?

django page cms get_absolute_url return an empty strings andURL issues.

[tricks...@googlemail.com]

I am having issues with get_absolute_url in my django templates when
using django page cms. It returns an empty string and does not link to
my required page.

I have the following Models, URLs templates and views

Models

class Body(models.Model):
...
url = models.SlugField(unique=True, help_text='---')

urls

(r'^news/', include('news.urls_news')),..

url(r'^/(?P[\w\-]+)/$', 'news_view', name='news_view'),

View

def news_view(request, url):
new = get_object_or_404(Body, url=url)
return render_to_response('news/view.html', {
'news': news
}, context_instance=RequestContext(request))

Template

   {{ news.title }}

the following code in my template returns the string I desire however
this does to direct to my html page

   {{ news.title }}

I know my everything links to the correct files because I have other
views that work correctly. Could somebody please point me in the
correct direction as to why get_absolute_url is not working correctly
and why {{ news.url }} does not direct to the correct page. I am sure
it has something to do with my urls.py however I am not certain.
Please bear with me I am new to django. All help is greatly
appreciated.

Hmmm  the developer of django-page-cms does not use buildout, so I tried
a buildout with django-page-cms as source and it behaved differently.
I still needed project_root/media/ and subdirs, but it started finding
templates.

Thanks for the hints.

How does buildout determine paths needed? (for django-page-cms)

[John Griessen]

I made a buildout with the config below that didn't work right and
found it needed to have some extra paths added.

Here is the extra path I needed:

  '/home/john/buildout/eggs/django_page_cms-1.1.3-py2.6.egg',
  
'/home/john/buildout/eggs/django_page_cms-1.1.3-py2.6.egg/pages/templates/pages',

pages was being found to not have the contents wanted.  Is having a dir pages
and pages/templates/pages a naming problem for buildout?  If a search
is being done for * in pages, it might stop short when the top level pages is 
found.

Hints, suggestions how to resolve this appreciated.
Meanwhile, every time I run buildout, I'll need to copy an paste that extra

although I am a django fanatic, in this case I would point you to Plone - as 
long as you do not want extensive customisation, plone fits your requirements 
out of the box. I left Plone as I found it is not suitable for non CMS use - 
as a CMS it has no peer.

Have a look at django-cms [1], it should be able to do what you need. 
And if there's some extra functionality you need it's very easy to 
program it.

Hi Gonzalo 

 I have a lot experience with CMS Plone on server Zope, which are written in 
Python like Django.
I believe, this CMS can fullfill all of requirements, you mentioned.
So if you like programming with python, this would be perhaps a good choice.

I have little experience with CMSs myself, where I work we face some of
the requirements you mention and we pretty much build what would be
specialized CMSs using Django and opensource Django apps.

I can suggest you take a look at these links:

There's a couple of them available on code.google.com and elsewhere on
the net. But most of the time you use the framework to build a custom
CMS so instead of finding CMSs you will find applications.  That is
the general pattern, people release apps and a CMS is just a django
project using a specific set of installed apps, some custom and some
maintained elsewhere.

One interesting "CMS" I ran into lately is Pinax,
http://pinax.hotcluboffrance.com/ .

You can't download many of those, at least in polished form, though
you can write any of them. You also can say the same about any web
framework: Turbogears, Pylons, Rails, Catalyst... You'll probably want
object-level permissions, and using the Django branch for that would
be helpful for all. But Django (and Turbogears, Pylons, Rails,
Catalyst...) are not like Joomla and Drupal- the former make it easier
to write web apps, the latter are web apps.

Re: Using django for CMS stuff

[[EMAIL PROTECTED]]

I'm going to respectfully disagree with Kenneth. Django CAN be just
the thing, even if you're not a programmer. The things you can
accomplish just with generic views are mind-boggling.

I'm not much of a programmer (as is evident by many of my posts here)
but I chose Django over an off-the-shelf CMS because none of the off-
the-shelf systems would do what I wanted, how I wanted. Not even
close. For my purposes, I always found like I was shoving a square peg
in a round hole. I also found the admin sections to be almost-
universally clunky, and the output code to be horrible.

Anyway, I managed to muddle through. Some things, like a blog or news
aggregator, are trivially easy to build in Django. Other things, like
e-commerce, are going to be more difficult. Many things have already
been built and are available for your use.

Figure out what YOU need. If an off-the-shelf system meets them, that
may be the way to go. If you feel like you're fighting with the tool,
you probably need better tools. Django is like a big Snap-On truck
just for you.

if you want a readymade cms with all those goodies ready to go - then  
django will not suit. In django, to a greater or lesser extent, you  
have to either roll your own or modify code written by others (if  
they allow). So and end user of a CMS (ie a non-programmer who is  
setting up his own CMS) would be happier with something like plone  
(or mambo, jumbo etc). Django is meant for programmers who would like  
to have a finely tuned, customised site to offer  to the enduser.

Django is very good for CMS like apps. I develop Diamanda Wiki and
MyghtyBoard forum (www.rkblog.rk.edu.pl) and each app has it's own
folder for code/templates and can be rather easily used in other
projects :)

Using django for CMS stuff

[walterbyrd]

CMSes like joomla and drupal have a rich assortment of plugins/modules/
extensions for stuff like: blogs, forums, galleries, news aggregators,
ecommerce, document management, and so on.

How difficult would it be to get that sort of functionallity from
dango?
