I want to develop a website which is partially an ecommerce website . Partially e-commerce because there is no selling of the producs or any payment gateway to be done .
But there should be a display of all the images ,User registration etc ,just like any other site . As specified iam not supposed to use any CMS . I would like to know if it is feasible to have such a customised website by not using any CMS . Because there are around 150 high quality images to be displayed on the website .
Any sort of advice would be highly helpfull and appreciated.
Yes this shouldn’t be a problem. Depends if you wish for your site to be static or not? You could easily create a site that can do what you are asking. If you are familiar with Php and Mysqli you shouldn’t have a problem.
This is how I would tackle your problem:
1- Create a simple $_SESSION login script (Allowing you Admin to gain access, this will have its own table)
2- Use a Mysqli database table to hold all records of your uploaded images.
3- Write a Php class to handle Logging in and user management (Change Password etc…) and a second class handling CRUD in regards to site Imagery. The Class should/will move images into a stated directory, and will also update the database table effectively.
4- Use write a function for getting all images and set a limit (for example LIMIT 20)
5- Then use Php to paginate your results within your HTML. Create a second function which will retrieve the next 20 results, from the last ones displayed.
I believe this to be the easiest way to do what you want to do.
