Did you find what you needed with Joomla, or did you go with another system?
Just curious, and good luck with your search!

Hi -

If you are looking for a student information system, you may want to take a look at Centre. It is open-source, php/postgresql. http://www.miller-group.net/index.php

Centre is not Joomla-based, though their business web site is running Joomla.

Hi ya'll -

I began a promising - though aborted for other reasons - project of this type using the components:

Fireboard
http://extensions.joomla.org/component/ ... Itemid,35/

and

Community Builder
http://extensions.joomla.org/component/ ... Itemid,35/

Can I just duplicate the content and database and then just change the settings in the config file? Yes. Dupe everything & modify configuration file.  I am doing this in moving a Joomla site to new server. Essentially same thing.  From there you can edit and modify for your new site. Than...

Antioch University Santa Barbara - http://www.antiochsb.edu now runs on Joomla.

Perhaps take a look at JACLPlus or other Group Access component?  update edit: I had read comments on JACLPlus and was scared away by the comments, and the web site requiring log in, and the extensive modification to the core that would be done.  I may revisit this in future if written pol...

My main question what is the best solution for setting up the user levels for people entering information.  Each person needs to only have access to their own stuff or the content/section/categories that they are assigned to.  I have looked at Community Builder, but I am not sure it is th...

Joomla is being used at departmental and club levels in universities across US.  A google search of "joomla site:.edu" shows these Joomla powered sites among many others: Princeton University Molecular Biology Department Computer Support Site m Global Information Internship Program is an innova...

We just recently went live with Antioch University Los Angeles: http://www.antiochla.edu    Joomla 1.0.12

will be using Joomla for other sites as well.

Gare - I just stumbled across this module and it looks like what you are looking for: m I have not installed it, but based on the description, it will allow you to limit access. The review posted on i did warn that there are modifications made to core files and to make sure the site is backed up pr...

yes...  that argument makes sense, at least on one level, and I suppose if your organization is really big, it is a necessity.  Joomla! will not have that capability until 1.6. I know many disagree with me, and for that reason I agree we need to add this functionality into Joomla!, but at...

You can tell who edited an article last by opening the article up in the back end.  At the bottom of the publishing tab you will see where it says (for example): Last Modified  Wednesday, 07 July 2004 23:10 Administrator Thanks! Very nice! In back-end: Content Items Manager > Content Item...

Thanks for your reply! Yes - we are looking at creating some 'business rules' - rules and business processes written out on paper for employees to follow - about who edits which section. But if someone WERE to edit content they were not supposed to, how would you even know who had made the illicit e...

Hi -

I am interested in how many people distribute the responsibility for maintaining their Joomla site's content. 

ie, How do you enforce the business rule that a specific editor can only edit a specific section of content?

thanks.

Hi - I also am looking for enhanced Access Control ability. A warning If you are considering the JACLPlus component.  Please read the reviews of that component. m I am working on several Joomla sites whose content will initially be managed by 1 or a few people. Later would like to delegate cont...

Hi - If this helps, SHTML refers to a type of HTML, whereas Joomla would provide a complete content management system that would render HTML, and allow you or others to create content without editing HTML. from m Server Side Includes or SSI is an easy server-side scripting language used almost exclu...

For example, I'm including a component that'll allow an alumnae database as well as an ACL-based component that'll allow them to update only their respective areas and nothing else.  Hi - how did your alumae database and ACL-based components mentioned above work out for you?  Which partic...
