CuteNews: PHP-based Blog System - No MySQL

Recommended Posts

I don't know if you guys have heard about CuteNews, but I think it's an awesome blogging system.

 

If you don't know where to get it or how to set it up, here is a quick run-down.

 

Download the zip file (virus free) from http://www.mysharebox.com/dl.php?key=8276639.

 

1) Unzip the file.

2) Make a folder titled "cutenews".

3) Upload the contents of the cutenews folder into the one you've just created.

4) CHMOD the file index.php to 777.

5) CHMOD the folder "data" to 777.

6) Then CHMOD all the files and folders inside of "data" to 777.

7) Go to http://ww38.yoursite.com/cutenews/index.php to install it.

8) To show the entries on your page put this code:

<?PHP

include("cutenews/show_news.php");

?>

 

To show archives on your page put this code:

<?PHP

include("path/to/show_archives.php");

?>

9) Save your page as .php

 

PLEASE NOTE:

CORRECT:

include("cutenews/show_news.php)

 

INCORRECT:

include ("https://www.salesforce.com/products/platform/overview/)

 

Any questions, let me know. :unsure:

 

p.s. I would like to thank Lissa for helping me find this and set it up on my site. Much love.

A no mysql blogging system is definitely what people will really need. Because not only you have limited space but also limited number of database. For me such a blogging system is by no doubt the first preference :)

Does it store the data in text files or something? I'm curious how it works B) The reason is I've heard that using a database is quicker and more efficient than using flat files. Thanks for the information. This would definitely come in handy if Xisto didn't give a mysql database. :)

I use Cutenews for news management on my site.It is the best I have found for that kind of stuff and I highly recommend it.The only thing I don't like about it is that you can't make your own user levels, there are only the 4 it comes with.It is ok like that but for what I need to do, I need it uploaded a couple of times for different parts of the site.Cutenews makes news a whole lot easier for any site.

Problem with cutenews

CuteNews: PHP-based Blog System - No MySQL

 

I've downloaded & chmoded everything that needs to be done, but when I go to mysite.Com/cutenews it says "no input file specified". What did I do wrong?

I personally feel that storing data in a SQL database is easier to manage and more secure than storing data as a file in the webserver. Also, SQL databases have more advanced features that are not available if you are storing data in files.

I download and chmoded everything, and I go to the cutenews page, it says page not found. I tried 55 times, following all the tutorials there is, and the stupid thing still doesn't work! I hate CuteNews, I'm switching to wordpress. GO WORDPRESS!-reply by Laura
