我们该如何安装和设置一个极为强力的开源网页工具，XOOPS。当然，对于那些希望为公司运行一个强有力内容管理系统的人来说，这些基本的安装和设置还是远远不够的。记住了这一点，自然就会明白，只有展示出如何获得XOOPS，以及如何将其转化成一个强力的CMS才有意义。而这正是本文所要做的事情。

那么，就要谈到如何安装必要的模块，如何配置这些模块，如何使用这些模块，而相信你在看过本文后，你会发现XOOPS已乖乖的成为你的全新内容管理系统了。

模块，无处不在

我们要做的就是挑出和选择那些能建立一个非常通用CMS的模块。对CMS，我们将不会假定任何特别的应用。那么我们必须拥有的将是：

* 文本/文件管理工具（比如CVS）
* 日历
* 时间跟踪
* 项目管理
* 用户/用户群管理

Managing a XOOPS content management system

Takeaway: If you want to build a content management system, you don’t have to spend big bucks. Jack Wallen shows how to build an inexpensive yet powerful CMS for your Web site by using XOOPS.

Previously, I wrote about how to install and setup one of the most powerful open source Web tools, XOOPS. Of course the basic installation and setup will be of little good to those wanting to run powerful content management systems for a company. With that in mind it only makes sense to show how to take XOOPS and turn it into that powerful CMS. And that is exactly what we are going to do.

So from installing necessary modules, to configuring those modules, to using those modules, after this article, XOOPS will be purring along nicely as your new content management system.
Modules, modules everywhere

What we want to do is pick and choose the modules that will create a very versatile CMS. So we won’t assume any particular usage for the CMS. What we will want to have are:

* document/file management tools (such as CVS)
* calendaring
* time tracking
* project management
* user/group management

My first thought was that I was going to have to collect together an entire group of modules to piece together everything necessary to mold XOOPS into a well-rounded CMS. But the more I research the more I realize that modularizing a CMS could easily lead to a disconnected process. That of course may install a bit of a hurdle in creating a CMS with our tool. But it’s not impossible. Knowing this I will start from the bottom up and highlight the module/(s) that will serve as the foundation for the CMS.

The one module I have found most useful for creating a CMS is the AMS (Article Management System) module. At first it seems this module might be everything needed to create a solid CMS. But there are a few necessary tools missing. More on that later. The over-riding issue with this module is, even though it serves as an outstanding core for the CMS, it’s far from intuitive. Because of this, a good portion of this article will be dedicated to the explanation of this module.
