What Is FlatPress?

Posted on January 2007 at about 5:00 PM by hwa

I remember that few years back, where people just get to know PHP, and CGI was still ruling the internet, back at that time many web application was using a very special kind of primitive database, called flat-file database.

A flat-file database is a kind of database that is made from text, mean that you can open and see what is inside the database by using any text editor, there’s no complicated SQL command or whatever, just a simple text file, and all your data are stored into this text file. Well, basically that’s the idea.

But of course there’s a drawback with flat-file, a major one is flat-file database is extremely slow.

So what is FlatPress? FlatPress is a version of WordPress that doesn’t require any MySQL database, it use flat-file database to store data. This could be very useful if you are looking for an economic web hosting plan, or you can even find a free web hosting to host your WordPress as long as it support PHP.

According to NoWhereMan, the FlatPress developer, only the simplest plugin will work with FlatPress, however Akismet and some simple theme will still work with FlatPress.

My Own Content Management System

Posted on December 2006 at about 9:54 PM by hwa

Been rushing assignment for the pass few days, at least for a week, it was terrible. 🙁 During the time my daily schedule was totally messed up, other than sleep, eat and of course bath, i got no time to do other thing, not even shit!! 😆

Anyway my assignment is developing a simple CMS (Content Management System) by using PHP and MySQL as database, the program is simple though, nothing fancy there, the user can post entries from their admin panel and there is a comment system.

I think i will continue develop this piece of software, because before i found WordPress, i always wanted to create my very own CMS software, because back at that time CMS like Drupal, Mambo and many others are too advance and heavy for me, all i want is a CMS that is for blogging purpose, so i found WordPress. 🙂

However for now all i want to do is take a good rest, today i slept until 7pm OMG!! 😯 And i had stop touching WoW for like five days already. 😥
