AW: [opencms-dev] OpenCMS for a menu in a static web site?

[Ulrich Rueth]

Hi Ekkehard,

I can definitely recommend OpenCms even for such a task. My own private
homepage is also a purely static one, using the HTML export feature. I use a
menu three levels deeps at most and also have only one to two dozens of
pages. A feature I extensively use is the new OpenCms6 xml content. I just
create a new article and it is automatically integrated into the web site.
Of course, it needs a bit of time to get into OpenCms, so if you have 2 days
to do this job, I wouldn't even start. But with about 1 to 2 weeks your site
should be up and running. If you don't use the xml-content features, even
faster (1 week maximum) - given that you are a skilled JSP and HTML
programmer.

Hope this helps.

Regards
Ulrich

Betreff: [opencms-dev] OpenCMS for a menu in a static web site?


Hello,

I'm looking for a solution to have a "menu" with two or three levels in a
web site consisting of static HTML pages only (i.e., the server serves HTML
pages only, no PHP, CGI, Tomcat). I know that OpenCMS can do this for me;
but would you think it is overkill? I played around with it a month or two
ago but had to let it be due to time constraints; would you advise me to
start again with OpenCMS, or rather look for another solution? I do not need
any of the other features (it is a very small site consisting of maybe one
or two dozen pages; just barely too many to put a "menu" into each of the
HTML pages manually).

Thanks in advance,
Ekkehard
