gautrek Posted September 7, 2009 Share Posted September 7, 2009 I am in the process of designing a website for a group of online folks.Now i am ok doing most things but what i am after is a way of having an area where registered people can upload info like files of workshop manuals and other techie stuff like that.I have got a gallery for photos and would like something similar for files No i am not sure if a database is right for this or if there is something else around (which is free) which i could use. As i am not sure what i am looking for its made it very hard to find what i want. Any one got any ideas? A nice and simple one would be good as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you go with joomla, I suggest google for most of your learning resources. There are a ton of free information that will get you on your feet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gautrek Posted September 11, 2009 Author Share Posted September 11, 2009 my mate who is up on these CMS progs has agreed to help me get me over the hump.But we have decided a Wiki type approach would probably be th best approach.Is there a wiki type prog that lets you upload files as well as write stuff? It for zips of workshop manuals and the like. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
