用php和joomla创建一个门户

Question

I am new in php and joomla and for now, studying book " Sams Teach Yourself PHP in 24 hour ".

I want to create an portal with PHP (and Joomla ) that certain people with definite level of access can input data or use data...

Please tell me how should I do this? I must start from what and where?

Is reading PHP and be familiar with Joomla is enough?

Thanks in Advance...

Answer 1

知道PHP就足够了，而且我不了解Joomla的详细信息，但是我认为只有Joomla也可以单独完成这项工作，如果这样的话，这可能会减少工作量，具体取决于您希望门户网站的功能如何。

Answer 2

I don't think You need to study php. You better learn more about Joomla. There are many options to set priviledges and stuff.

Answer 3

Joomla allows different access levels, but you must decide whether they fit your users' needs yourself. I would advise checking this out prior to starting the project: http://help.joomla.org/content/view/228/153/1/1/

Answer 4

You can run and extend a Joomla site with no knowledge of PHP at all. Since your question isn't specific it is hard to give an exact answer, but I can point you in the right direction. Since you need access control levels, you definitely want to use Joomla 1.6. It has very good ACL that you can use to control every part of the site.

As for as a "portal" that really depends on your needs. Joomla has built in user registration as well as user submitted content, but it is rather limited in scope. If you are looking for a full blown community portal then you should take a look at JomSocial (will be 1.6 ready soon). More details on what your portal needs would be helpful though.
