    Posted by AndriyM posts: 3

    I would like to develop an organized and easily-updatable (by admin, but perhaps also publicly by users) information site. The main necessity is being able to classify, display, and search for "news" items by mulitple categories and sub-categories (fields) such as geographical location etc.

    The number of indentifying fields attached to each "article" would ideally be around 15 and some would be input (e.g. contact name, e-mail) whereas others would be selection (e.g. location, category/subcategory).

    Can this be done in Tiki without in-depth programming or database knowledge? I can do some basic work with PHP and MySQL, but not much more than that. I'd appreciate some advice.

    Thank you.

    Hi,

    Its pretty easy code to modify. Alternatively you might want to look into the services available at http://tikihost.net to help you modify the code for your own requirements.

    So are you saying that this project can be done with Tiki? Or that Tiki code is generally easy to modify?

    A small amount of easy code modifications to have with geographical categorisation. and some Template changes to match up.

    Tiki is more than capable of running such a system.

    Thanks for the quick reply and the clarification. I will have to install the system and play around with it a bit during the coming week.
