Answered Webcomic template?

New Modx user here, and a somewhat-competent front-end dev person.

A year or so back, I remember seeing a Modx webcomic site. That is to say that a Modx user had constructed a site in Modx similar to a Webcomic plugin in Wordpress set-up.

I cannot for the life of me find any trace of this site. This is a hail mary to see if anyone might have any information on this site or its creator.

Thanks!

That may have been me; I was doing something along those lines for a client who changed his mind and did something else.

There was nothing special about it; I used Articles. Templates themselves are nothing, with MODx you can have any kind of template you want.

Thanks for the replay!

I would like to have some information on this site. Can you provide me some?

The WordPress plugin just provides the usual masthead with main menu, a block for displaying the comic image, menus for navigating the previous and next comics, some content, then commenting. With MODx this is very simply done in the same manner you would do any blog or news article page. Really, this is just a blog with a big image and some specialized menu options.

There are a number of fairly simple alternatives for this kind of thing. Now I prefer using MIGXdb and setting up the listing and commenting add-ons myself. A comics management system would be very little different from this tutorial for an events management system; instead of an event you'd just have a comic for each date. http://rtfm.modx.com/display/ADDON/MIGXdb.Manage+Events-Resources+in+a+CMP+with+help+of+MIGXdb
