Gir CMS

Gir CMS aims to be as lightweight and easy as possible while still maintaining a certain amount of extensibility.

While HTML5 Boilerplate is the basis for the template the project is designed to be dynamic enough to (with a little effort) serve most text based formats. You are also able to code in any standards you want.

Requirements

• Apache 2.2+ w/mod_rewrite
• PHP 5.1+

Installation

1. Upload the files, make sure the cache directory and files/errors.log are writable.

2. Set up the files/config.php file.

3. Check/Change RewriteBase in the root .htaccess file.

4. Change or delete the favicon(s) in files/extras.

5. Change or delete the humans.txt and robots.txt in files/extras.

6. Go to the address you uploaded it to and it should now be working. Enjoy :)

nginx support

Although it hasn't been tested throughly Gir-CMS seems to work on nginx by adding the following lines to the nginx.conf file:

location / {
    root   html/files/;
    index  index.php;
    
    if (!-e $request_filename) {
        rewrite  ^/(.*)$ index.php?url=$1  last;
        break;
    }
}
