Description:

This Content Management System was the final group assignment for my PHP development course in the first semester of the Rich Media Post Graduate program. We had to create a website and use the content from the website for the community of Weston in Toronto. All this content had to be controlled through CMS backend.
  This password protected content manager allows users to create, edit and delete folders or sections for the site, create, edit and delete pages that go in those folders and create, edit and delete user profiles for the people using the CMS. It also includes a few modules such as a news article manager and photo gallery manager. These are displayed on the frontend through feature files that can easily be attached to any page the user creates and include all the functions specific the the module. New modules and features can easily be added to the CMS at any time.
  The frontend website basically reflects all the content that is in the database and builds an attractive design around it. Sarah Wong designed the look of the site, trying to create a warm and inviting atmosphere. There are few different templates that are used by the pages depending on what kind of page they are. The homepage uses a different template than the regular content pages. The contact page also uses a unique template.
I was completely responsible for the backend and frontend coding and I'm continuing to add new modules to the CMS. This project really solidified my understand of PHP and has made it one of my favourite technologies to work with along with Flash and ActionScript. It also gave me greater experience with creating and organizing complex databases that need to store large amount of varying kinds of information.
