Arena CMS - progress

> View all blog entries

Published | 13.21, 8th of January 2009, by Jay Vincent | Technical

For about a month now, I've been developing a custom content management system, which I've have named 'Arena', and I thought I would share my progress.

In a nutshell, its a multi-user, multiple-permissions, multi-function, ajax-based content management system. It consists of various modules which behave independently of each other, so only relevant modules need be included at configuration. These modules are:

  1. Arena Access
    This module manages the users of the arena system and their permissions
  2. Asset Management
    Handles the upload and management of user-uploaded images, videos, audio and documents. Can also dynamically resize images.
  3. News
    This module manages the posting of news articles.
  4. Case Studies
    This module manages the posting and ordering of case studies.
  5. Pages
    The most in depth module, this manages the creation of, editing of and deleting of static pages, aswell as the structure of the website navigation.

I have other modules planned (like ecommerce and statistics modules) but for now, I think I've got enough to work on.

Arena's first deployment will be the re-launch of software company website, who's web editors are currently struggling to cope with the wordpress system installed. The relaunch will happen Spring 2009.
