User FAQ
Do you have a user manual?
Yes we have the PLUME CMS Rough Guide. It is lacking a big Don't Panic! on the cover, but it can be usefull.
Why the paths?
The paths are used to access the articles and the categories of the site. For example if the category path is /my-category/ you can access it by default with the url yourwebsite.com/index.php?/my-category/ And if you add an article with the path my-article in this category, you will access it through yourwebsite.com/index.php?/my-category/my-article
Which path to chose for a category?
The path must start and end with a slash / the in the middle it is quite free as long as you do not put a space. When you add a new category, a javascript code will automatically propose you a path from the title of the category and the parent category.
Which path to chose for an article?
The path must not start or end with digits. Then try to use the keywords of your article in the path. For example if the title of your article is PLUME CMS installation with easyPHP you can put plume-cms-easyphp-installation. When you add an article a javascript code will automatically propose you a path from the title.
Why is not possible to put an article online even if I am Administrator ?
An article must contain at least one page. Save the article with the in edition status, a link to add a page will pop-up. When you have added the pages of your article, you can put it online.
When I install I have the choice between Western Europe languages and more, what is the real difference?
The only difference is the encoding used to save the data. When chosing only the Western Europe languages, the encoding of your website will be iso-8859-1, if you chose more the encoding will be utf-8. Using utf-8 gives the ability to display text in languages that are not using the latin alphabet like Arabic (ØªØµØ¨Ø Ø¹Ø§Ù?Ù?Ù?ا Ù?ع Ù?Ù?Ù?Ù?Ù?Ù?د). My personal website is using French, German and English so I do not need utf-8. This is really up to you.
