asp.net help
Hi guys
Normally i woud insert all text and images at design time. Im using visual web developer and c#.
My client wants me to just do the design with all the page links. "Home, about" and so on.
Once i upload the site to the web server he wants to login to the website and then click on the image to upload his own image to upload his own image as well as type in his own text. How can i go on about doing this. So all im doing is just the design with emtpy image boxes and empty text. He would the go to http://www.companyname.co.za login as admin and be able to enter everything he wants on his website over there.

Re: asp.net help
Text yes and a path to the image. I suppose you could just use the fileuploader control to always upload his image to /images/header.jpg, thereby replacing the old one, but eliminating the need to store it in a database. Will probably be more trouble in the end though.geraldhum wrote:so i just create a db and on page load i call from image and text from database

Re: asp.net help
Sounds to me like you need a CMS. Try dotnet nuke. Its free.

In terms of a CMS I would rather recommend Joomla. Much easier to set up than dotnetnuke.GreyWolf wrote:Sounds to me like you need a CMS. Try dotnet nuke. Its free.

I agree, but if he is looking for an asp.net solution, then dotnet nuke is the way to go.Bladerunner wrote:In terms of a CMS I would rather recommend Joomla. Much easier to set up than dotnetnuke.GreyWolf wrote:Sounds to me like you need a CMS. Try dotnet nuke. Its free.

Last time I used dotnetnuke (granted, 2 or so years ago), it was bloody complex.GreyWolf wrote:I agree, but if he is looking for an asp.net solution, then dotnet nuke is the way to go.Bladerunner wrote:In terms of a CMS I would rather recommend Joomla.

Not recommended for someone who is unsure of how to go about storing text and a custom image
