Product Description
Mastering Mambo is a professional-level guide to Mambo's most powerful and useful features. You will develop powerful interactive sites that fit perfectly with your unique requirements.
The book covers the following topics in detail: - Create attractive custom layouts for Mambo - Build multilingual, internationalised sites - Open an online store for your Mambo site, complete with support for gift coupons, automatic invoicing, and more - Turn your site into a community with discussion forums - Discover more of the available Mambo extensions and how to use them - Optimize your site for performance, search engines, security, and accessibility - Develop your own components, modules and Mambots - Master DOCMAN, the document manager for Mambo, to turn your Mambo site into a dynamic repository of shared documents and files
Mastering Mambo is the book for anybody who has developed a Mambo web site, and wants to expand what their site can do and make the most of this powerful content management system. It is not a tutorial in the Mambo basics. Nor is it a comprehensive reference to Mambo's workings. Instead, it shows you how to employ Mambo's most powerful and useful features in your own site or intranet.
Reader ReviewsThis book is a very good and complete tutorial on advanced uses of the Mambo CMS and associated components. Alas, like any paper book about an open source product, it has a hard time keeping up with current developments. Still work the price of admission. Particularly useful topics include eCommerce (This add-in is now called "VirtueMart"), and Search Engine Optimization.
