I was able to find

XoopsInfo 2.14 at:
https://xoops.org/modules/repository/singlefile.php?cid=101&lid=1713

XoopsInfo 2.14 and Frameworks 1.22 at
https://xoops.org/modules/repository/viewcat.php?op=&cid=101

The Protector and the Backup module links were good. I haven't found Xoopseditors v1.10 yet.

I had difficulty installing Protector using the instructions at
https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=254269#forumpost254269

I think that what I've done is a close match to the explanation at
https://xoops.org/modules/newbb/viewtopic.php?post_id=252705#forumpost252705


I now have a trust path above the web site path. The trust path had nothing in it but the modules folder (with the protector module folder) from the xoops_trust_path (/xoops_root_path folder didn't exist in the download) in the protector download. And the protector folder under html\modules was copied to the XOOPS modules folder. I added a trust path definition to mainfile.php as described
define('XOOPS_TRUST_PATH', '/home/www/xxxxxxxxx');

But when I went to install the module, the first clue something was wrong was that the Protector module had a blank name (but had the version correct: 3.17). My second clue was when it said it "Unable to install . Error(s): Module already exists". My final verification that something is wrong that XOOPS Info shows protector module with a red light.


I've set the configs path to 777 (was 755), same behavior.

Where to start for effortless small-scale eCommerce?

Okay, here's my beginner's question: Where do I start?


Back in the Dark Ages, I built this web site (http://frenchdoll.tripod.com) for a client, along with a custom content managent system that I wrote myself in java. She abandoned the web page years ago because she was doing all her business on eBay.

Since then, a lot has changed. Nowadays, eBay is doing their darnedest to be an unviable option for sellers, and there's way better content management packages in OpenSource, and I'm no longer involved in web development. Froogle now requires built-in eCommerce.

That being the case, she'd like to resurrect her old web page. I'd like to grab an off-the-shelf solution and move on. Preferably something lightweight and fast. I've found that I can run sophisticated CMS on free hosts likehttp://www.100webspace.com. If she wants to enter product information into a database, and I want to do as little as possible, is this the package I should be looking at?

http://www.100webspace.com has a bunch of the features one would need for CMS and I can leave her with a completely free solution.

What's the difference between XOOPS and XOOPS Cube?
"Object-Oriented" ... sounds powerful ... sounds like work

TikiWiki

I could prolly just structure this as a wiki that only she could edit. If it has built-in eCommerce, great, but the old one didn't.

Importing foreign CMS modules?

I'm just wondering if phpNuke (and other CMS) modules can be seamlessly, easily, labouriously, or impossibly adapted for XOOPS.
