Furniture & Decoration

Hey Guys n girls,

i would like to point you to a new site the onyro.com team has just finished. View a large selection of some of the worlds best design furniture, for the home, office, outdoors and lighting systems.

Its completely cms driven using a customised version of modx allowing the client to add as many subsections and categories to the product sections.

We hope you enjoy it and look forwards to constructive feedback.

Many thanks

Well, after waiting 30 seconds while the Flash intro was still loading, I gave up on it. Maybe a "skip intro" link?

I would agree the load is slow, even on my 15Mbit connection. With that said though ... what an impressive site. I’d love to learn more about how you integrated MODx with Flash ... could you share that with us? And the other pieces you customized?

That’s an impressive site. Nice use of flash and I too would love to learn more about how you achieved the seemingly dynamic flash/modX integration.
Cheers

Nice to see someone else has to still do full flash sites

I guess modx is easy to integrate as it can output xml. You could even template a wayfinder menu as as a xml tree for your menus.

modx is so flexible.

We agree it is kinda slow. But its a site based on high quality images (no sottwell its not an intro, what you didnt wait for is the images for the frontpage main categories, it has 27 of them, all presented with their image). It has about 2500 image / products inside. Now about the intergration, everything is outputed dynamically in xml, queries have been created as snippets to get the needed results, it uses a snippet / module based on imagemagick for the conversion and thumbnailing/caching of images. The good thing is that modx worksfine even with more than 3000 items in the tree.
Everything on this site, from the menu to the colors are controlled via modx.

Thats basically it.
Thank you for you feedback.
Alex.

Very cool Alex. Thanks for the info.

Nicely explained. Many thanks for taking the time to explain how flash can be driven by ModX. A most noteworthy method indeed!
