#GravCMS #Grav #CMS #OpenSource

Fresh preview of Helios Open Reader – a free, open-source plugin that transforms the Grav Premium Helios theme into a web-first publishing platform for open textbooks, guides, and structured content.

Simpler than developer tools, more flexible than hosted services. Your content, your server, your terms.

Still in preview, official release coming soon!

#GravCMS #OpenPublishing #Markdown

If you are running a #WordPress site and are looking for options to get your content out and served elsewhere, I've written a WordPress #plugin that exports content to #GravCMS.

The newest build of the plugin generates a GravCMS plugin so you'll be able to use whatever Grav theme you'd like!

Posts export as #markdown pages
Other content includes media, taxonomy, categories, site metadata, users, and roles.

If you use #AdvancedCustomFields , those transfer too!

I'm resurrecting my plugin wp2grav [1], which helps an admin export #wordpress content for use in a #GravCMS site.

Currently working:

• Post content
• User roles
• Users
• Uploaded content

Please submit issues to the repo, and I'll try to get to them as soon as I can.

Vor ein paar Wochen hat ein Kunde ein Online-Kondolenzbuch beauftragt. Es musste bis zum Abend fertig sein. Das hab ich dank meiner Boilerplates für #gravCMS geschafft. Es wurde rege genutzt.

Damit in so einer Situation niemand lange überlegen oder herumfrickeln muss, haben wir es glattgezogen und als Open Source veröffentlicht:

Migrated from another instance to this one, so here's a new #introduction
👋 :

I thought I wanted to become a professional #pilot when I was a teenager. I earned my private pilot's license when I was 17. Going the professional route didn't pan out, thus the handle of "DefectiveWings".

I started off working as an #electricalEngineer when I graduated from college, then did a career shift to IT helpdesk in 2009. Moved to desktop support, systems, and then over to web programming.

I currently work at a small tech company in charge of/ responsible for all things IT and security/audit related (I joined this mastodon so I could follow #infosec information easier). I love #automation, with #saltstack being the tool of choice for #linux and #pdq for #windows at $DAYJOB.

I enjoy #php, #GravCMS, and #Drupal7.

I've been a #gamer almost my entire life. If you ever played any of the Descent series, I'll insta-follow you :)

I hope to get swap funny IT stories with you and maybe learn a thing or two from y'all.
