Looking For A Website Template
-
We've got to do better at work, and I don't have the time or interest to write anything. We have a clever lady in the office who is willing to figure out how to use a decent web development tool set, but she has no interest in becoming a guru. Does someone know of a packaged solution that can handle a small website, dashboard, calendar, event schedule, etc, that a non-developer can maintain easily? It doesn't have to be free, but it does have to be easy.

You might find some usable samples on asp.net[^] - they have a number of ready to use websites that may contain some of what you are looking for.

Great idea, Mark. I'd forgotten that site, but back in the day when I was actually writing websites, I learned a bunch from www.asp.net!

We had Sharepoint on our server at one point; no idea where it went. But back then I never found anyone - even here - who had any idea what to do with it, what it was good for, or how to use it. But that's generally what I need, a Sharepoint portal that a non-techie can easily populate and maintain.

Also a good solution: fire up VS2012/2013 and create a new application and, voila, bootstrap all built in. Nice and easy. The you can change out the css to get the look you want from a variety of different sources like Bootswatch[^]. Very easy to do. :thumbsup:

The multi-phasic wrongness of your statement is offensive on so many levels, the entire space-time continuum is wretching.

I am forced to use Sharepiss and Bloatus Goatse on a daily basis, so I speak from experience.

When I need to get a website up and running quickly, I use Joomla[^] ...there are tons of plugins for it, free and paid, including calendars, e-commerce, social networking, photo gallery, etc etc...see here for available extensions: http://extensions.joomla.org/[^] If you need custom content you can use a Content Construction Kit (CCK) plugin like K2 or Seblod; lets you make custom article types. ...and there are tons of templates out there, free and paid...one of the best paid template places I've found is Rocket Theme[^] You need PHP and MySQL installed, which will also run fine under IIS, which is what I use for development, then usually deploy to a Linux box. Your users can edit articles via the 'front end' right on the page or through the 'back end' which is where all the settings as well as content, plugins, modules, etc are managed. There are users and roles and you can restrict content based on the user's role if you want. Good luck!

Did you ever see history portrayed as an old man with a wise brow and pulseless heart, waging all things in the balance of reason? Is not rather the genius of history like an eternal, imploring maiden, full of fire, with a burning heart and flaming soul, humanly warm and humanly beautiful? --Zachris Topelius Training a telescope on one’s own belly button will only reveal lint.
