To: LazyBadger

I can't read Mambo themes without  - they are unreadable in editor (but biggest part look nicer than most of XOOPS themes, IMHO)


Well I could read it and it's because the default theme are made without table by using DIV. I could make a table theme and it will still work on Mambo. There's some extension plugin for Dreamweaver for developing theme with the Mambo code (let say just like smarty code).

There's one thing I'm thinking about the theme in Mambo, the hideable block like Xoops. XOOPS can hide block if there is no content with the images assigned to it but in Mambo you can hide it but without the image around the block. It might have some hard code to do this and might be conflict.

Everything is true you guys said, but XOOPS doesn't have the extended blocks or multi blocks right?

Mambo has them by creating an area in the theme name is to "user5" or something else and you go into admin panel you input the "user5" id and you can have the option to insert the content your typed targeted to the "user5" block and the Mambo will detect any part of the theme with an id "user5" and it will place the content there.

I hope this is a good features if it built into Xoops, maybe you guys built this in the future version by adding this features to the admin panel in Xoops. or someone can make a module on this just like one of those module work with the menu by putting {link1} {link2} in the theme files and you go into the admin and input the text and the link.

Also I forgot to tell you something.

In Mambo you can have up to as many block part as you want in the theme files and set it up in the admin area to enable content flow in the block.

Xoops has like 5-6 blocks
Mambo has like unlimited blocks

Hello,

Any of you tried Mambo?

I heard some people don't like it because it's lack of modules, components and etc. But actually there's alot total of 700+ files for a Mambo CMS.

Mambo has a great features on contents but I really don't know the themes part yet, I wil have it check out out later.

I telling you this because XOOPS and Mambo has weakness and strongness.

Xoops has a highly customizable setting and Mambo has a good layout organized content.

Some how XOOPS CSS files is hard to setup and the themes XOOPS smarty code. XOOPS themes has too much coding but high details customization.

Mambo, (I don't know much yet) seen like simple, and the CSS file too. What I like about Mambo it's that the image manager inside the admin area are very good and easy upload and setup also the editor has a image insert features using {mosimage} for a image placeholder. If you check it out you will get what I'm saying. The image placeholder can align left, center, right with text and content fully wrap around the image without leaving space just like Microsoft Word.

I don't know witch is good but I always wish XOOPS could do better and I'm suggesting any developers XOOPS and Modules look and try the Mambo to see if any of you come up with an ideas.

Also Mambo has a stable nice administration control panel. Simple setup, maybe lack of flexibilities.
