Welcome to the September 2012 issue of WOX (World of XOOPS) Newsletter (see here previous versions).
A small celebration: this is the 50th issue of our WOX Newsletter!
We have closed September on a positive note - on Sept. 29, 2012 we had the opportunity to present XOOPS at the CodeWorks PHP Conference in Cincinnati.
Two months ago we've announced that the cross-marketing agreement with our host has not be renewed, and therefore we need $100/month to pay for our dedicated server. Also last month the community came through! Within the first week we had the required donations for October! THANK YOU SO MUCH to everybody who donated money (see the list below)!
Please donate TODAY for future months!
Work continues XOOPS 2.6.0. You can learn about XOOPS 2.6.0 Alpha 1 here. See the Roadmap for XOOPS 2.6 by ForMuss and Mage.
You can discuss it in the thread, and let us know what you like and what you don't like. You can follow the development on XOOPS SVN, or you can subscribe to our SVN mailing list to receive updates.
Recent Highlights:
- XOOPS Innovation Award - for people who create something very unique and innovative for XOOPS. This time the award goes to Martin Logan (playsome) from UK for his work on the Whitlawburn Community Resource Centre website.

Amazon EC2 and Elastic Load Balancing with XOOPS (whitepaper)
Amazon EC2 and Elastic Load Balancing with XOOPS
Whitepaper by Simon Roberts (of Sydney) - wishcraft

Contribution Notices
I would like to thank the following people and organisations for their assistance with the Amazon ec2 and subset of systems, without their institutive understanding and association with Amazon this technical whitepaper would not exist.

Preface
This whitepaper is to describe the process involved in defining Amazon's EC2 with Elastic Load Balancing with the XOOPS Portal System. It is designed to be used with XOOPS 2.5 or later, and the associate files are provided as per GNU licensing of the source. ELB or Elastic Load Balancing within Amazon's EC2 cloud, is the process, where an ELB service will start up as per requirement instances of a website image supporting your website.
When ELB is in place, the Amazon cloud will start up and direct traffic to multiple instances of your website as per the traffic requirement of the site. This all depends on what sort of instances you are using and its capabilities. All the files provided have been tested and are designed to be used with Amazons Ubuntu services.
This sort of service will be required with a site that has a heavy traffic requirement that a single VPS or Private server cannot cope with and when you need multiple services. Why would you use Amazon to do this, well I will quote Peter from ICE Systems on this that ELB services until Amazon made them available where finitely unaffordable and out of reach of even the most durable business intake. As the costs of installing and hosting the services manually where just unjustifiable for most businesses.
This white paper will concentrate on the XOOPS system itself and preparing the CMS/Portal system for the Amazon EC2 environment with ELB in place, some of the systems it describe you will either have to research or employ someone like ICE systems to deploy for you as they contain information which may vary between installations and environment as well as being outside the scope of the documents description.
Anything which is unique to the system this was designed on due to intellectual property rights have been omitted there will be notation in the document as designed or put in generalised terms of reference for use in your own systems.

I would like to thank for the establishment of the EC2 cloud in this instance, Peter Barganski from ICE System for his ability to navigate and configure the Amazon cloud. ICE System's is a reseller and Amazon Partner and have provided me with quick and fast responsive and adaptive environment needed for the Lunchalot.com system we are designing.

Secondly I would like to thank my employer, lunchalot.com (contact@lunchalot.com) for so quickly choosing XOOPS as the framework to move their existing web infrastructure over to and in particular Richard the CEO enthusiasm for moving the Proof-of-concept web infrastructure into XOOPS and the team for all their hours testing.

Whitlawburn Community Resource Centre v3 powered by XOOPS
The website of Whitlawburn Community Resource Centre was launched in 2010 as a way let people in our local community know about events and services. Naturally we chose the worlds best CMS, Xoops.
Now we are proud to launch version 3 of our website, still powered by xoops but utilising new web technologies such as html 5, css3 and responsive design.
The new site features a custom built theme based on the xoops default theme and uses html 5 boilerplate as the html template for the theme. The site also uses many great xoops modules including article, xcgal, extcal, weblog and qpages/rmcommon.
Pretty much most the module templates where redesigned, alot of template code which we did not need to use was taken out and we had to rewrite templates which used mostly table layouts so that our responsive design would work.
the main xcgal templates now use divs instead of tables as do some of the extcal templates particularly for week list view and month list view, etc.
I think this really shows the power of xoops and how much xoops can be customised thanks to it's use of smarty templates.
you can check out version 3 of the website here: http://www.whitlawburncrc.org.uk, take a look on a desktop and a smartphone.
Let me know what you think.
