Creating dynamic websites

From Tactic Wiki

Import a Website Template

  • This is the fastest way to get a website ready to publish.
  • Click on "Import website".
  • Choose your template or upload a template from on a template market place or provided by your web agency.
  • To add your first page, you can start a page from scratch or import an existing website/template that you can modify later.

Add the Content of a Page/Container

  • Including a container into a parent container allows to move some content (text or html)of a page into a sub-page.
  • So you can include it on several pages.
  • Changing the content of the subpage will be propagated on any page that include the sub-page. It is similar to using the "Templates" with Mediawiki or using the #include in C++.
  • To include the content of a sub-page/sub-container into another one, just add this where you want to have the sub-content included.

Add Dynamic Content into a Page

  • One of the most interesting feature of Tactic CMS is that you can include dynamic content by adding PHP code, anywhere on your web site.
  • Only restricted people do this because they need the permission "Add dynamic content" to be allowed to do that.
  • Adding dynamic content is as easy as developing in PHP.

Deploy or Publish Your Website

  • To make your website live, you can click on the link "Deploy/Text my website".
  • A popup will show you instructions to setup the web server, like Apache, so you can make your website live on the Internet.
  • When a website is lived, it is not necessary to have Tactic application live, but the database must still remain started.
