Question

I’m working on a simple custom “cms” – this is for a school that needs an easy to manage website for students to edit etc. Therefore I’m not using wordpress and other pre-built cms systems.

I’m about a few weeks into the project and I’ve got the system set up – however it’s getting messy and bulky. Can someone help me understand how to set up a modular design to my system.

So far I have:

Upload system (Uploads into directories based on file type)
Page loader (Loads set pages into the framework)
User Mang. (Authorises access to systems and pages)

All I really need is an idea how to set this all up and maybe a demo – if someone can supply me with this info that would be great. Otherwise I’ll just keep looking.

Cheers, Keiran
