PHP Blog content management system, using a modular MVC framework with Smarty templates

hamletcms's Issues

Allow comments and published fields not saving

When creating / editing post the dropdown values are not saving

Contributor permission groups not showing on form

On create contributor group the permission group labels are not showing on the form, it's fine on the edit group page.

Finish off implementing database updates

Currently can run database changes on install/uninstall but need to be able to run when a module is updated (this is reffered to in the wiki: https://github.com/rbertram90/HamletCMS/wiki/Running-database-updates)

Default profile photo image

There should be a default image if a photo has not been uploaded

Autosave on cancelled new post

When a new post has been started pressing the cancel button does not delete the autosave so it will still appear as a draft when nothing should show.

Prevent comment spamming

Don't allow same user to comment more than (3?) times in a row on one post

Add latest release status on admin tools page

Fetch the latest version from GitHub to inform user of new releases

Create process for custom modules to include CSS/JS

Currently we have modules sitting outside of the public web root, hence any files that need serving to the browser is not possible to do so in the same folder.

Could possibly add a public folder which gets copied to the public directory on install?

User able to edit all posts without permission

User with only create and edit own posts permissions can edit any post

Load comments via. ajax & paginate

Currently loading all post comments in the initial page load which is not suitable if there were 100's of comments on a single post.

Date is not saving correctly when first creating a post

Create a new standard post and the default date is uses is not today

Allow custom domain to be assigned to blog

This feature has been lost from an old version as it was quickly hacked in place, need to be able to have a dns record pointing to /public/blogdata/ and display the blog correctly.

Adjustments need to be made to all front-end urls so that the root is / rather than /blogs/. The default.php that is automatically created will also need updating.

New logo

Have tried to design a logo but being more of a code monkey couldn't get it to my liking.

Cannot re-order menu items

The new menu system does not allow ordering of items - a must have

Fix user profile card on username hover

Hover over the usernames on cms dashboard / posts pages and get a horrible error

Approve all button for comments

If a blog is getting a lot of comments would be nice to be able to approve them all in one go

Allow login to blogs under custom domains

Currently users log into the main CMS but as there is no single sign on process in place (nor is this likely to happen) it would be nice to have a simple solution so users can authenticate under custom domains.

This would then allow users to leave comments on these blogs

User can delete file without permission

Users not in group with 'delete files' permission can still delete files

Suggestions for comments module from Bard!

Food for thought; a summary of output from Bard AI on how the comments module could be improved:

Here are a few suggestions on how the PostComments module of HamletCMS could be improved:

• Add a CAPTCHA field. This would help to prevent automated bots from posting comments.
• Add a character limit. This would help to prevent users from posting excessively long comments.
• Add a link filter. This would help to prevent users from posting links to malicious websites.
• Add a spam filter. This would help to automatically detect and remove spam comments.
• Allow users to upvote and downvote comments. This would help to promote high-quality comments and discourage low-quality comments.
• Allow users to reply to comments. This would help to create a more engaging discussion forum.
• Allow users to subscribe to comments. This would allow users to be notified when new comments are posted on a particular post.
• Allow users to export comments. This would allow users to save comments for offline viewing or analysis.

Improve the blog post editor

Currently the only editor is a single textarea that supports markdown - this has been done lots of times before. Would like to offer the ability to have multiple sections on the page - with column layout.

The seperate 'video post' and 'gallery post' types (which currently don't work either!) could be merged into the one type to rule them all.

Update password hashing algorithm

Need to stop using outdated md5 hashing before code can ever be used in production environment

Add module dependency checks on install/uninstall

There is currently a section documented in info.json for module dependencies but there is nothing implemented to actually check the dependencies are installed.

Fix loading icon on buttons that do not reload page

Currently if you click on a button which doesn't close the page and the loading icon stays

Installable themes

Have non-core themes that can be pulled in via. composer

Provide UI to connect with Disqus rather than comments database

The comments system that comes with Blog CMS is a bit simple, why re-invent the wheel?

Improve default blog templates

Default out-the-box blog templates are now looking dated, require some fresh designs
