tristan Posted July 23, 2011 Share Posted July 23, 2011 Can you add a site builder like http://ecocms.com/1_5_Pro-Version.html? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cl58 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 This is up to our root admin, djbob, as he funds HelioHost. If he wants to pay for it, it could probably be installed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cl58 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 This support request is being escalated to our root admin. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jje Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 Couldn't you just use a CMS like Joomla or Drupal? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tristan Posted July 24, 2011 Author Share Posted July 24, 2011 I would prefer EcoCMS Pro. (Site Builder) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rvt Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 I don't understand why this is something that HelioHost has to buy/pay for. The free version (http://ecocms.com/1_4_Download-CMS-System-for-Free.html) you just download the ZIP file to your computer, extract it, and away you go. Presumably the paid version is the same way (although I didn't shell out money to find out). Look, here it is on Johnny with no money out of pocket from me or HelioHost: http://thh3.thehosthelpers.com/ecocms/. This took me 3 minutes. Why should HelioHost have to pay for your development suite? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cl58 Posted July 24, 2011 Share Posted July 24, 2011 This post was created with a link to SiteReptile which is very popular among web hosts, but has to be paid for (not by users). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The free version (http://ecocms.com/1_4_Download-CMS-System-for-Free.html) you just download the ZIP file to your computer, extract it, and away you go. The free version sucks. The add page button is pro only, and there is no templates feature.  This post was created with a link to SiteReptile which is very popular among web hosts, but has to be paid for (not by users). Yes, but I accidentally posted the wrong link. Sorry. Both would be fine though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashoat Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 Sorry, but I don't see why this is a compelling feature that we need to have. There are free alternatives. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brother Hassan Posted July 25, 2011 Share Posted July 25, 2011 I've used one of these ... They aren't worth it at all Try Wordpress ... Its simple & has a greater amount of plugins Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tjoene Posted July 26, 2011 Share Posted July 26, 2011 Or you can try a CMS (e.g. Joomla or Durpal) to build your site. There are plenty of free theme's out there for them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jje Posted July 27, 2011 Share Posted July 27, 2011 Yes, a CMS is much better than a site builder and less hassle (plus more controlling). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashoat Posted July 30, 2011 Share Posted July 30, 2011 I think we have a consensus against a paid site builder. Closing... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
