Octo - Content Management System

Using Octo for a new site

You can find a working example site in the Octo Skeleton project.

To get started:

• Clone: git clone git@github.com:Block8/Octo-Skeleton.git <your site name>
• Move into your new project directory: cd <your site name>
• If you want to try out the example site:
  • Create a database and import into it the content from octo-skeleton.sql
  • Modify siteconfig.php to point to that database
• If you want to create a new site:
  • Remove the .git folder and create as a new repo: rm -Rf .git && git init
  • Modify the siteconfig.php file as necessary for your project
  • Rename the Example namespace and modify the code within it for your project
