I have some unused domains sitting around so I'll install it on one of them and let you know my thoughts. I'm always interested in testing CMSs. Let me know if you want feedback on any specific features. mary smiffy

I have a completely changed content manager, external links can be embedded in the navigation menus, support for non english letters in titles etc, bug fixes and lots of other stuff too. I released as BETA due to extensive changes needed to implement new features, but this should be more stable than v0.1RC. In addition there is also more themes available and the first in page addon embedding a contact form with the click of a button into page content, with all settigns controlled by the settings manager. There is lots happening, so don't forget to stop by, I would love to know your thoughts and my weaknesses so I may improve on the project. thanks smiffy6969 Hi Mary,

Currently it is a database forum, but when I have the time to port a flat file forum to razorcms, I will be switching as it fits with the flat file structure i'm developing. Check out the V0.2 BETA out in the next week or so, it has massive improvements, and adds the ability to add external links to catagories plus a compeltely new content management area. Just have a fwe loose ends to tie up and lots of testing. smiffy6969 Allready in place, has been from the start.

I will definitely give it a try! I haven't checked in on nanocms recently so I don't know if Kalyan is still working on it. One suggestion I have for you is to start a user forum on your website http://www.razorcms.co.uk so people can discuss the cms and report bugs. It would be a great feedback tool. thanks again! smiffy, thanks for the comment, razorcms certainly looks interesting. I will definitely give it a try!

It is a completely new system utilising a few bits of nanoCMS, some re-written bits of nano, a whole lot of new code and whole new structure. I have a very small userbase and am looking for testers for bug squishing etc, I currently have several themes, fckeditor, sef url, meta for each page, ftp mode, multiple info/news areas per page, media manager for pages, list is growing daily. take a look www.razorcms.co.uk Kalyan, if you are interested in any of my new code you only have to ask. I have tried contacting you but you don't reply, no worries though if your not interested. smiffy6969 I have a flat file cms called razorCMS it came from a fork of nanoCMS called uCMS that i made, but then got completely re-written, I would love for people to give it a go.

I understand what you mean about wanting to keep it small, simple, but powerful. I know there are some issues that I've run into trying to create a site that has many pages, like wishing I could create a page template that I would just copy and paste the content and my ads into, and also getting more content areas where I want them has been a challenge. So maybe these are things to work on. I have a few more ideas brewing and will be posting them here on my blog and will let you know. NanoCMS is definitely powerful and excellent for a flat-file CMS, so thank you for your work in making it happen! mary Kalyan,

Its just i wanna, keep the core to the simplest..and focus more on extensibility.. so that it would be powerful inspite of being smalest... Mostly i receive ideas on how to add more features, but i rarely receive any ideas to keep it simple, small, but most powerful... NanoCMS is here to stay… :D
