Hi all.

I wonder if anyone of you can point me to any solutions for making a corp website, like Wordpress or Joomla plugin/template. I used to run my old corp website only with only a phpBB forum and the killboard. I wonder if there anything new or more "pro". Everything i find via google is out-dated.


Thx in advance

There is definitely an opening in the market for a relatively simple solution.

You have a few options already if you are comfortable running a server for it and getting it set up. If you want one that runs on a normal web hosting service, then it's pretty much just the phpbb3 plugin (adds voice comms stuff to what you had already)

The project you linked looks cool. It will be competing with a couple of Python based systems, but may have a significant perceived advantage if it's written in php in such a way as to not need specialised hosting.

I'm in the early planning stages of a new project myself. The idea is to provide a fully hosted service, with CMS, forums, kb and TS/mumble management (need to provide own voice server). It will be able to be set up in a few minutes, require almost no technical knowledge, use SSO and eliminate the need for members to use API keys to authenticate. Can be set up to work for a corp, an alliance, a coalition or some arbitrary grouping of players (anyone can register, subject to approval).

I'll charge ISK per month (I'm providing the hosting for it, after all)

I'm not sure how much interest I'd get, but I think there must be quite a lot of groups out there who want to have a decent set of web services, but don't have anyone who wants to try and set up something like BRAVE Core.

Thank you for the compliment ! Indeed, this is why PHP was chosen for ECC : allow a quick and easy installation on a "simple" web hosting service.
