Free Content Management System (CMS)

free cms content management system - easy install

Pulse is a great CMS designed to easily define blocks of your website that can be edited online using a web interface. Simply copy the Pulse folder into a directory on your website and you’re done with installation, no need for databases or complicated installation procedures. Then it’s a matter of logging in via the web and you can edit all those blocks on your site that you have defined as editable. Great for creating sites that can be edited or update later on by anyone, with no need for them to have any technical know-how. Update to the pro version for multiple photo galleries, integrated blogs and more.

Use Any Font on Your Website

Use non standard fonts on website

Well, not any font, but any of the fonts in the Google Font Directory. By embedding a small bit of code you can use non standard fonts on your web site and unlike many SIRF methods that render an image in place of the text, this text is searchable and you can even select it and copy and paste it, unlike an image. Using CSS you can also style it in many ways including such fanciness as adding drop shadows.

With over 1200 bug fixes (they had that many?) and new features, Wordpress 3.o looks to be a nice upgrade. Perhaps the most exciting new feature is that you can run an unlimited number of blogs from one Worpdress Instalation (well they say 10 Million, so maybe there is a limit).

New Wordpress Update

You can now add custom backgrounds, headers and Custom menus (Which you can re-organize by dragging and dropping) to your WordPress Blog all without editing your theme file. You can even place these custom menus and sub-menus in a sidebar widget.

They’ve also added the ability to create custom post types such as a products, Contacts, Newsletters etc.

as well as; Taxonomies (groupings of posts or links; “Link Category” is an example of a taxonomy)

There is a Bulk updater, for among other things, updating multiple plugins at once
