Candlecms is the evolution of the propeller (engine) of the site DjaForest http://djaforest.com written  in PHP5 on the basis of Framework CodeIgniter 2.0.2 with a corrective of  module's routing. The database is made with MYSQL 5

CandleCMS ,for himsefl, takes advantage of the evolution of PHP5 and is completely compatible PHP 5.2 and greater. BYOOS solutions Open Source offers you this development and hopes  you 'll be consider  between its numerous users/developers to adopt this collaborative working platform.

For who is CandleCMS?

To everyone in need of WEB  publication and worried to be at the tip of the development. To the Internet users tired of the hacking of their security by techniques bound PHP4's deficiencies. To graphic designer who wish to integrate their  own Templates or themes.  

The continuous development is at top speed and I take advantage of this to thank the development team DevTeam CandleCMS who supply an exemplary work.

Caracteristics?

- Management of several instances of Candlecms on the same Database (due to the use of prefix)
- Module 's integrations
- templates 's integrations
- Multilanguage
- Authentification by email adress
- Tags 's Management
- Multimedias librairies … and many more to discover

         CandleCMS is a web application development (a toolkit) for people who build web sites using PHP. Its purpose is to enable you to develop projects much faster than you could if you were writing code from scratch, providing a rich library for tasks generally required, as well as a simple interface and logical structure for access to these libraries. Candlecms lets you creatively focus on your project by minimizing the amount of code to write for a given task.

       Any application that requires a little effort to learn. We have done our best to minimize the study by making the process as pleasant as possible.
The first step is to install Candlecms, then read all the sections of the Introduction section of the
table of contents.
      Then read the General section in the order. Each part is built on the former. More guides are coming to help you understand the basics. These manuals will talk about the controllers, views, and Helpers. They will show you how to manipulate controllers, views, models and helper in your development.

• Candlecms is free: Candlecms is under GNU / GPL license with open source. So you can use it but please, for more information read the License Agreement.
• Candlecms is light : The main system only requires a few libraries. This is in complete contrast to many CMS
  that require significantly more resources. Additional libraries are dynamically loaded on demand,
  based on your needs for a given process. Thus the basic system is very small.
• Candlecms is fast : Really fast! We challenge you to find another CMS with this level of performance.
• Candlecms uses M-V-C : Candlecms pattern uses the Model-View-Controller, which allows a clear separation between the presentation and processing logic. This is especially good for projects where designers
  work with your template files. We describe MVC in more detail in its own page.
• Candlecms is expandable : The system can be easily extended with your own libraries, helpers, or by class extensions.
• Candlecms does not require engine model : Although Candlecms includes a template that can be optionally used, you do not have to use a template.

     Any application requires a little effort to learn. We have done our best to minimize the study by making the process as pleasant as possible. Here we describe the steps for  CandleCMS installation depending of your operating system . We begin by specifying the necessary prerequisite for the installation and operation of CandleCMS on a server, then we will give the download process, and we will complete the installation procedure.
 

The minimum configuration of the server is:

• PHP version 5.0 or later (Apache 2.0).
• A database is required for most Web application programming. The server database is MySQL (5.0 or later).

In some cases you will need to reconfigure the routing of URLs. Follow the following
commands to do this (on Ubuntu):

• "sudo a2enmod rewrite" gives you a notice telling you if the module is activated.
• "sudo gedit / etc/apache2/sites-enabled/000-default" to open the file 000-default with admin rights. This file contains the routing configurations in the server.

In the "directory / var / www /" edit the line by allowOverride AllowOverride All. Record and save
the file.

• Restart the server with the command "sudo / etc/init.d/apache2 restart"

Also restart your browser and everything should work normally. If you work with Debian,
run the terminal dabord administrator before typing the above commands.
 

     Simply go to the home page Candlecms. You will find a link that allows you to download a
copy of the application.
 

    Note that Candlecms runs as well on Linux operating systems as on Windows. Candlecms is installed in five steps (after downloading the zip):

1. Unzip the archive.
2. Copy files from the archive Candlecms and files in your server found in "/ var / www" depending on whether one is on LINUX or "c: / wamp / www" if you are on windows.

 Then open a browser and type the address with your server. The following page is displayed:
You can switch between languages (French or English for publication) at any time during the installation process.
If you work with a Linux (Ubuntu, Debian ...) you must change the permissions of the file Candlecms. To do this, type the following commands in a terminal:

• Move to the server folder with "cd / var / www"
• Change the access rights of Candlecms with "sudo chmod-R 755. / Candlecms" (on Ubuntu) or "chmod-R 755. / Candlecms" working on a terminal manager with Debian
• Change the digital file by the owner of "sudo chown-R www-data. / Candlecms"
• Change the group name of the file with "sudo chgrp-R www-data. / Candlecms"

If you work with Debian, remove "sudo" before your order and start the device administrator to write. Note that / is the name of Candlecms Candlecms in "/ var / www".

1. Open your browser and type localhost as the URL you want to achieve. At this stage you should have the installer on the screen.

In step 1, you must specify the servername (localhost), the username (preferably create a new user for MYSQL Candlecms with the corresponding rights), the password for the username and  prefix tables (one you want) of the database. The advantage of having a prefix for the tables is the hability to manage multiple facilities Candlecms on the same database with prefixed tables differently.
In step 2, the installer verifies that your system meets the software requirements for using Candlecms. To recap the requirements are: PHP 5.0 (Apache 2.0) or higher and MySQL 5.0 or later.
In step 3, the installer informs you of the user permissions for files Candlecms. These permissions must be changed (if necessary with the controls described above).
In step 4, you must give a name to the database Candlecms use. Check the box "create database" and provide the requested information about the default user.
After all this you should see a message that confirms the success of the installation.

1.  After this, the installer presents you with two links: one to the home page of Candlecms and another to the back office. Just click on a link to enter Candlecms.

After installing, please delete the install file so that a person can ruin your installation of Candlecms.
