Monoplane/CpMultiplane - simple PHP frontend, that uses cockpit as a library

Well,… I decided again, that the code base was ugly and I rewrote the whole thing.

The code base wasn’t intuitive, it was designed for very simple portfolio websites with a few pages and it didn’t really support multilingual setups.

If you used or use Monoplane and find bugs, I might fix them, but I will concentrate on CpMultiplane in the future. The code base is cleaner, it supports multilingual pages by default and it has much more features…

Most options from Monoplane will also work in CpMultiplane, but a lot of the config variables changed.

Some new features in CpMultiplane:

  • simple blog functionality
  • multilingual (optional) with language prefix, e. g.: example.com/en/my-page
  • 2 modes for structured content
    1. one collection per content type, e. g. a collection named pages and a collection named posts
    2. a single collection named pages - each entry has a type page or post
  • simple content preview while editing pages
  • a basic responsive theme with scss files
  • contact forms - fully functional without javascript

I have to update the docs some more and a demo is coming soon…
