GXC CMS is an open source CMS written on Yii Framework. It has been developed since July 2011 by Tuan Nguyen (http://www.nganhtuan.com) and Tri Nguyen (http://www.tringuyen.me) from GxcSolutions (Non-profit organization - http://www.gxcsolutions.com). This CMS can help you to make not only a newspaper specifc website ( Workflow Transfer, History tracking,...) but also a basic social network.

You can check the demo at : http://www.gxccms.com

The CMS is now version 1.0. It has all the features for a basic CMS. If you love PHP and Yii, feel free to join us to make this CMS better.

This CMS uses existed extensions/modules :

Rights : http://www.yiiframework.com/extension/rights/ Translate : http://www.yiiframework.com/extension/translate Settings : http://www.yiiframework.com/extension/settings

Some current features of it:

  • Multiple languages ( Content, Categories, Pages,...)
  • Multiple Content types ( Easily define new content type like : article, event....like wordpress posts custom fields but maybe better )
  • User Management ( Thanks to Rights module )
  • Workflow handle ( Who can create an article, publish or cancel it, transfer to others to review )
  • **Multiple layouts support **( Hm,...I should call this theme, learn more with the page management below )
  • Pages management : The site can create pages. Ya, a page can have different layouts that are defined abone. In each layout, we can add blocks in slots. The Blocks are ( for example : HTML Block, Content list Block, Menu Block,,...). A new block can be developed easily for backend handle and frontend appearance.

Missing and going to develope features :

  • Resource management ( In our old version, we already have this but we don't satisfy so we decided to re-work on it ). This is for upload files to different storages ( to current web folder, Amazon S3,...)
  • Newsletter
  • Caching management ( Re-work)
  • **Ip and visits statistics ** .....
