portal q: is there a method to let people make a 'personal page?'

i’m leaning towards using modx for a yap. (heh) is there a method to let people make a ’personal page?’

Oh no! YAPS-begone!

In all fairness, though, a portal is made of pages of content, which MODx does a great job of managing.

arphaus,

I was thinking about this as well. One way I could see it would be use NewsManager (and newsmanager,newsediter,newspublisher).

When a user wants to create a first page, a folder is created for him. If he has already created a first page, he just adds to it. Then could you use some template variables to allow for different skins and other options for his pages? This is how I had thought about doing it.

@rthrash: ha - wouldn’t you be one of the peeps at fault for making ModX so good at managing pages even if i can’t figure out the personal page action, i def think ModX would be the way to go. and then there’d be another YAPS coming your way!

@chuck: i’ve only been delving in ModX for a couple of weeks, and really only built a site in the last week so i am definitely still a noob. does what you suggest require any php? (i’m still waiting on a book from the library ) i will look further into NewsManager in the next few days and try to get a handle on it and what you are suggesting.
