gffects Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Hey guys I want to build a big project website and my ability with html and css is good I understand javascript and some php and some mysql. Now big sites like youtube and facebook have their sites made by the user and it display specifically in certain positions on a page. I would like my site to be able to do the same thing by the user adding the content and it gets put in the correct places and I know I can't just build it in html and css or I would have to hand code everytime there would be a change. How to go about doing this for a website? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
falkencreative Posted July 15, 2012 Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 There are a couple ways you could approach this: -- Try to build something from scratch using a server side language (probably PHP, though there are others). It really depends on what sort of features/functionality you need, but this could be a time consuming/difficult. You might check out my PHP Login with OOP and MVC course (http://www.killersitesuniversity.com/courses/view/php_login_with_oop_and_mvc) as a place to get started, since I would assume you will need some sort of login/authorization system. -- You could also find an existing project that has nearly all of the functionality you need, and modify it to fit your needs. HotScripts has a lot of free/lowcost/commercial scripts for you to look at: http://www.hotscripts.com/category/scripts/php/scripts-programs/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gffects Posted July 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 Thanks Ben i'm going to go over my idea and note down what functions are needed, And I guess slowly figure out how to make them one at a time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gffects Posted July 15, 2012 Author Report Share Posted July 15, 2012 not too bother about time as I tend to do this over a year or 2 anyway and tbh I would want to know how to make this stuff anyway I don't see the point in using other peoples work.
