How does Deki CMS work and what can I do?
Deki CMS is a fairly basic system. Simply put Deki CMS hides all of the 'CMS' functionality from anonymous users. Therfore anyone who logs in will have full access to:
The site controls (My Page, Control Panel, Recent Changes, Tools, Help)
The page controls (Edit page, New Page, Restrict Access, Attach File, Move Page, Delete Page, Print Page, Table of Contents)
The CMS navigation (Hierarchical navigation defined by the CMS administrator)
I have been trying to activate the dekicms skin. I am using Deki v.8.08.1a. I unzipped the deki cms.zip to the skins folder (unzips directly to create a folder called dekicms).
In the (new) control panel, the dekicms skin preview shows up blank, and if I select it and try to apply the skin, the message says the skin is applied..however..viewing deki returns a 500 error…If i revert to the old control panel and select the cms and standard radio buttons visual appearance, I can see a preview fine..but applying the skin again returns an error…
PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in C:\Program Files\MindTouch\MindTouch Deki\web\skins\dekicms\dekicms.php on line 420
Guys, any chance of adding this to your deki express offering? It would make it such an awesome tool for giving parents, etc a website that they could update themselves...
Ok, so I decided to have a look at this skin. I've downloaded it (installed it), and then changed the Visual Preferences to use the skin.
However, in order to see what it looked like for users that weren't logged in -- I logged out after selecting it. And, I don't see any login option now.
So my question is -- how to do I log back into the site now?
I've got the same problem and all my troubleshooting hasn't worked so far. PHP Parse error: syntax error, unexpected $end in C:\Program Files\MindTouch\MindTouch\web\skins\dekicms\dekicms.php on line 420
I've actually figured out the problem. Certain web servers (in my case IIS) don't like <? as opposed to <?php you really should use <?php anyway. So if you go through and change the occurrences of <? to <?php it should work. Do not use search and replace for this, just do a find and check each instance of <? (which includes <?php) there are only 117 of them so it'll only take a couple minutes. I'd make the change myself and upload it, but I don't know how to commit stuff.
