Geeklog vs. PHPnuke: A Brief Review

I wouldn\'t recommend putting ALL the blocks and plugins in the basic install. Perhaps giving a menu of options on which ones you want to include in the download and then making them transparent to install like you recommended would be better. Over time, the number will grow and if you put them all in the intall you\'ll create the same bloated product like phpnuke.

Not if they aren't activated to begin with! Just include them (along with all the necessary changes to lib-common.php, lib-custom.php, lib-database.php, and/or config.php then add just one more initial story telling the new admin about their existence and where they can go to activate them. It'd still be the same clean install in the first place.

Ok, maybe not ALL of them... Just the most popular ones like the Weather block and the downloads plugin.

Geeklog vs. PHPnuke: A Brief Review

Authored by: richschmidt on Monday, December 09 2002 @ 01:53 pm EST

As a newbie myself, just trying to get my GeekLog site up and running, I would LOVE it if there was a distro available with many of the \"common\" plugins, etc, included. One reason I\'d like to power my site with GeekLog is because of the promise of being able to include things like the Weather deal, news headlines, Google search, etc. That fits what we\'re trying to create. The easier that would be for me to do, the better. :)

Peace,
Rich
