Title: konakartadmin as cms
Post by: andrea.castelli on February 28, 2011, 11:11:11 am
Hi guys,
I'm developing a shop like the konakart demo as a website, but not based on a real CMS. But I would like to offer to the admin user the possibility to change for example an image (the header), a text (promotions title) and a downloadable file (disclaimer in pdf).

What can I develop to do this? I don't want to integrate a CMS (at this moment).

I read this:
http://www.konakart.com/docs/AddingCustomFuncAdminApp.html

Other ideas?

Thank you.
Best regards.

Andrea

If you can fit all of your data into configuration variables then that could be the way to go since you can define your own and automatically they will appear in the Admin app and can be read from the store-front app.

If you can't. then I think it makes sense to develop your own small application that saves this type of data in your own db tables and to integrate the maintenance UI into a custom panel of the KK Admin App so that you can let the Admin App look after the security aspect of your app.  On the store-front side you will have to provide a service to read your data so that the store front can configure itself based on this data.
