Tutorial: Using Serendipity for a Small Business Website

Post by carl_galloway »

Hi everyone,

I've just written up a short tutorial for anyone who develops small (4 or 5 page) websites for small business and using Serendipity as the engine to allow the site owner to update their pages without knowing HTML or CSS.

The tutorial is very basic but might be useful to some of you.

Not bad! It wasn't quite clear if you're using entries to allow the owner to use the WYSIWYG editor, or if the site is set up using the static pages plugin. It looks like entries, considering the template.

How do you get the entries in multiple languages?

Just by using the multilingual plugin and creating the translated version of the entry. I originally wanted to use the static pages plugin but it has too many options whereas an entry is basically the editor and also allows me to add the meta desc plugin to give each page it's own title/desc etc.

Now that I've tried this method I'm actually starting to dislike the static pages plugin. I think actually it would be great if a switch could be added to the regular post editor to make an entry a post or static.
