Description : tool, written in PHP, to create weblogs and other dynamic websites
Pivot is a tool, written in PHP, to create weblogs and other dynamic
websites. Pivot is Free and easy to use.
Because you place the software on your webserver, you do not need any
tools on your own computer, but you can use all of Pivot's functionality
through your web browser. This way you can use your Pivot from wherever
you like, once you have it up and running.
Pivot requires no additional libraries to run, nor any databases like
MySql. This is because we want to make a tool that is useable by as many
people as possible.
Some of the features of Pivot are:
* Sophisticated Categories/Weblogs system, so you can maintain several
weblogs and publish your entries how you like;
* Template based. Fully adaptable to your wishes;
* Built in simple search tool.
* Keeps simple statistics of how your visitors came to your site;
* Easy to upload and include pictures with your log-entries;
* Allows for making thumbnails of uploaded images;
* Comment system that remembers your visitors (if they wish);
* Automagically creates RSS- and Atom-feeds;
* IP-blocking,to prevent certain people from leaving comments;
* Automagic Archiving by week or month, and/or by category;
* Optionally supports full wysiwyg editing of your posts (IE5.5+ on windows
and Mozilla 1.3+ / FB 0.6+ on all Platforms);
* Supports Textile, both in entries and in comments;
* No external databases are required, just plain PHP. This is to ensure
Pivot runs on as much servers as possible.
* Makes valid xhtml, when possible.
