Hi guys,

I have been using XOOPS for a couple of years now and found these forums very useful. I have just completed 2 projects that I would appreciate some constructive criticism on.

http://ChurchThatCares.org -This is a church with a very extensive members section. There are about 18 modules in here and it is updated daily. The calendar is a google calendar (actually 9 calendars merged) hacked to display the way i wanted. The theme is a very modified Kubrick Flexible (kavaxtreme). We have about 300 registered members on the site.

http://KreiterGeartech.com - this site is also a modified Kubrick Flexible theme that uses quite a bit of embedded flash. This site is much more static and has no members area. The news is really the only thing that is frequently updated.

http://xoops.mattregister.com - My test site. I kind of like my flash header. (that is really the only cool thing on there.

I am always looking to improve them. Let me know what you think.

Hi can you tell me what module you are using for your RSS feeds please.

Thanks
Kev

Very nice sites, both of them.

I've been dragging my feet for some time now on a personal project to hack that Kubrick theme. Now I'm a little discouraged since you made such a good work there --especially with chucrchthatcares.org.


My only observation is that maybe, only maybe, you use too much flash files. I think that the header is enough. But that's just me and my personal taste.


Overall, a very good work.

Congrats.

I am using RSS Fit from http://brandycoke.com. I have not found a way to integrate the wordpress feed into the main feed (you are supposed to have a main combined feed and then offer each feed individually; news, downloads, blog). I went iunto the RSS fit template and manually added the wordpress existing feed to make it show up on the same page.

Thanks for the feedback pepe. I took the flash news ticker off of the guest side so you only see it after you log in (wrapped it in an if statement).

The flash header is only visible on the front side, after you log in, it is replaced with a jpg version of the same header.
