Cloudron Forum

@vjvanjungg There are a lot of available apps in the like for WordPress. So, for a start one can build a membership site through WordPress. Quickly thinking of s2Member for example, which is among the most powerful that exist and FREE with GPL.

I agree 100% that looks like a killer CRM app that should have a lot of value to the offering!

Kudos mates!
Keep up!

Yeah, pretty cool and pretty good idea indeed.
Personally I can do screen videos, I've been doing this for years for tutorials and trainings etc., and I do commercial ones as well.

So, when you start posting about video tutorials you'd like to see I might get onto it.

Yeah, I too love this initiative very much.

And I agree cloudron has been a pretty inspiring project for me too and especially because of the two guys who we know upfront running it they're just amazingly incredible, it's never seen for me in career and it's been long enough, I wonder if they ever sleep loll but I know a bit of what is passion for information technology.

I too been in digital business for 30+y and before that in marketing intensively at many levels. Then I mixed everything, marketing and technology, with the event of the Internet taking the world by storm during the last 25 years, to practically become expert tactician in marketing technology. And for so, I tailor custom solutions for entrepreneurs, especially to help transforming, migrating, and integrating brick-and-mortars to digital business and there are still A LOT.

I was so passionated, the beginnings of this Internet was a very exciting moment for those involved plentily. We have seen so many opportunities exploding everywhere, that I decided that I wanted to learn everything I can about this (new) emerging technology that was about to network the world as I already believed so at the time.

And so I did, on a daily pace, I was already getting in full time from the beginning of 1998 and been doing a lot of research and reading and testing and developped and learned all the needed skills to do absolutely whatever I wanted to do online, for me or anyone else because I was so passionate I didn't have enough projects for myself to fullfil my needs to put all the knowledge up to work lol

For example, I wanted to host websites right from the beginning but I did not have a clue yet of how to do this, nor there was any cpanel or anything else in the like to make it as easy as possible, let alone technologies anywhere near the power of cloudron. Some scipting langages we use today did not even existed yet. So, I'd to become a sysops and started already to learn to install and manage Linux servers in the cloud (even though we were not using that term very much by then) and then became the need to build a web site, and then graphics, and to add more functionalities, and then you see the point...

That also means I'm in the FOSS since then as well but the main scripting language at the time was PERL and you could connect and manage database with mysql, and slowly that migrated to become mainly PHP as server scripting all while HTML, CSS, and JavaScript were getting just better and better. And as a searcher I've also observed the birth and growth to world domination of the GAFAM pack and all its repercussions on the citizens of the world as we all start to realize now (though not the IT guys ).
And its along my research for getting solutions for entrepreneurs to allow them get out of GAFAM by using FOSS and also stop "using" and paying all the needed SaaS with monthly fees, that add up month after month with every little tool needed to do busness online, and thus also loosing full control and privacy on data, that a few years back I stumled upon CLOURON !

Today, I can take and manage absolutely any kind of digital project because I've been doing so, many times for a long time. I've been working with many big names in today's digital marketing fields whom today own some very large and very well known SaaS packages sold for several years now. I've been more or less out of the active business, while maintaning several assets, for about 7-8 years because my half has been very sick though I'm getting back on a pace for two years now.

Now, I was getting up to speed at the same time this sanitary crisis came upon us but that's brought more opportunities for people like us because now it's like everyone is suddenly realising the need to be digital in many ways and for many reasons and I strongly believe cloudron could help us bring so many solutions for so many situations it's just mind boggling. So, if we can help each other interested in this busness to grab a bunch of this market and help them getting digital as easily and cost effectively as possible, I think we could all be profitable of taking advantage of this kind of cooperation.

Feel free to contact me about this at anytime.

Actually that would be much more than looking great or be much fun as chatbot marketing is among the fastest growing trends right now. That could add more to the benefits for sales of CR servers, which are starting to be quite noticeable already btw, to SMBs.

@marcusquinn said in Changes to WordPress apps:

We've just switch https://healthshop.net to run on Cloudron. 6,000 products, multilingual, multi-everything — and I know we still have a bunch more optimisations to go.

I'm impressed at how fast that loads, the front page, and how fast we can start seeing those products' thumnails coming in. swift...

That's great opti man Mind to share the box config this site's running on? Where physically in the world is the box located?

If ever anyone says WP & Woo can't scale, send them my way

Yeah, that I know for a long time

Honestly, must have tried every other WP hosting on the planet by now - and none of them are truly optimised or even transparent about what they consider optimisation beyond their caching plugin masquerades.

So much so...

Thanks bro.

And I'm pretty surprised that no one has ever suggested this before!
Check this out this is awesome and a must add to Cloudron imho, however it seems to be a quite easy app to install on a simple LAMP instance.

Totally FOSS - Free and Open Source Software, and powerful out of the box.
There also are available paid for plugins as addons, very much affordable.

@yusf said in Grocy - ERP Beyond your fridge:

I can see a benefit for using it in small-scale industrial kitchens or perhaps in community kitchens but other than that, ¯_(ツ)_/¯

From the website:

Waste less!

Except time that is

Mmm, as far as I can see Cloudron can absolutely address TWO clients categories, which are BUSINESSES and FAMILIES, think about it so that app would just be fantastic to add for that utility, and that said even for business for lists of supply needs etc. ...

@jdaviescoates said in Wordpress Multsite:

@nebulon I run a few WordPress multisites. I (and I think most people) prefer having the sub-sites at sub-domains, but it is also possible have them at sub-directories:

The sites in a network have different URLs. You can choose one of two ways for the URL to specify the site:
Each site has a different subdomain. For example: site1.example.com, site2.example.com.
Each site has a different path. For example: example.com/site1, example.com/site2

Quote from: https://wordpress.org/support/article/before-you-create-a-network/

In fact, it's more than possible, cloudron is running wordpress multisite pretty well with the sub-directories settings, I know for sure, because I do run one on my cloudron. I haven't tried with sub-domains but indeed, that should take a special twist from CR to run this since it is handling all subdomains internally.

ENiGMA½ is a modern BBS software with a nostalgic flair!
~ Project's Readme

This is a modern BBS (Bulletin Board System) Running in NodeJS. It's flat-file as far as I can tell. Essentially a blast from the past with the ability to do:

Wow, cool. This is how I started all on the ONLINE venture a few years before the Internet got public. Building and running BBSs among other things. "Renegade BBS Shareware Package". Anyone remember the Shareware model?

@Lonk said in Changes to WordPress apps:

There's only 3 caveats on Cloudron right now as it stands:

Yep, that is why I discussed about the above plugins and mentioned it was working prertty well at the time, Now that they are retired and GPL as well one can update and use them. And maybe just study them and see how ut was done so one can find the solution to adapt it to WP multisite on CLOUDRON.
