Hello, I just want to write two lines about a new cms powered by CodeIgniter that I wrote: Bancha.

Bancha is capable to manage any kind of project/website, specially when it have many different types of contents.
Bancha bases its power on some pillars that make it different from other CMS: It allows you to handle any type of content: pages, news, photo galleries, products, etc ... through XML schemas. In 10 minutes, you can configure a website to manage, list and view any kind of thing you want.

Bancha is made by a powerful team of Web Developers. You can contribute yourself, joining our team on GitHub! Did you discovered a bug? Fix it, or write us a message on the issue tracker!

The official website is http://getbancha.com and the documentation can be found here http://docs.getbancha.com

GitHub: https://github.com/squallstar/bancha

Some websites made with Bancha:
http://www.squallstar.it
http://getbancha.com
http://www.mint-sugar.com

See how easy is to query Bancha’s ORM:

Technical notes: The core is based on CI 2.1 but we extended it to be more, more powerful

Cheers,
Nicholas Valbusa

i just want to know if there is a module where we can manage users and roles. Because i want to develop a site with multi-user access. OK it’s a real-estate site with access for agencies that are can create their own lists of properties.

hello, Bancha features a full users-groups-roles module. In the demo that you tried I disabled the user/groups panel.

You can try it by yourself installing Bancha on your host

Cheers,

Ok great! thank you for the response i will try it today in localhost…

Looks great! really good work in there - design too is great. One fairly large flaw I could spot is that you are storing passwords in plaintext!

Thanks for your time!
I just opened a new issue about the password storing on the github tracker, you can view it here: https://github.com/squallstar/bancha/issues/90

I’m gonna fix it in the next days!

You ever think of using yaml as the schema language? - I’ve used xml a lot, but yaml reads much more clean?

I never used YAML so i decided to use XML schemes… I’m gonna look at it!

Btw the speed doesn’t change because xml files are cached as parsed and serialized multi-dimensional arrays.

Yeah just looking at it now - really nice system. I can see it being pretty powerful in building out sites.

Oh, I also decided to use XML because everyone that knows HTML can write XML without the needs to learn another data-container language so it’s “universal”!
