Releace of my own Umbraco based webpage.
August 31, 2010 Leave a comment
For little bit more then the past month time I’ve been working on designing and developing my own webpage. For this task I’ve chosen Umbraco CMS engine, beacouse of it’s similarities with Sitecore, but allso because it is free to use. I’ve was pleasantly surprised on the helpfulness of the Umbraco community, and i like to contribute my knowledge to further Umbraco development by posting articles about it on my blog.
To differ my self from all the other mass-produced templated webpages outhere, I’ve designed and implemented my own look and feed for my webpage.
The main idea behind this webpage is to make a content driven webpage not a blog. I’ve written an article about how this webpage came to being and i am going to write further articles in the future on how i did it. More about the nuts and bolts of it all. (c: So sign up for an RSS feed, so you can keep up.
here are some highlights of the implementation.
- youtube integration
- Custom developed tag based article system
- Lucene index search results
- Tag and Related articles lists.
- Umbraco based contact form(creates nodes in umbraco, so i can see a feed of all new items when logged in)
If you have any comment’s pleas tell me i wood like to hear your opinion.
