I want to develop an e-Learning system for one of my client. The main features are as follows:
1.students can register and log in using valid email id, password.
2.Logged on users can able to see only the PDFs files uploaded by the admin and can edit the document file uploaded by the admin.
3.Document/PDFs can be uploaded by admin under various category, which students can see contrariwise.
I just wanted to know is there any other open source free content management system to develop such system or i have to develop it through PHP and MYSQL (Because i know PHP-MYSQl). Is it better to develop through MOODLE??? Please suggest
Chandra,
There are a number of different pieces of software out there that potentially could be moulded into what you are describing.
Moodle will do most of what your asking, and wordpress with the correct plugins could also.
I'm sure drupal will have some plugins that could make this happen also.
I think what you really need to do is look at what your trying to achieve and what your budget ( both financial and time ) is.
If you require all the functionality you suggest and its not possible to get this from opensource, or off the shelf software, then you will need to build something bespoke.
If however, you are happy to settle with a couple of items missing, there is more than liekely something you can purchase or download that will meet your needs.

I'm planning to develop an online website audit tool using PHP and CURL like one on Woorank and want to make it available on my website so that people can check website audit report for multiple sites completely Free. In development of this tool, I need to crawl some sites like Alexa. I want to know is it permitted? If yes with rules, please let me know. Appreciate any kind of suggestions related to my concern.
Crawling websites is allowed. However, breaking websites is not in most countries. This means you should not interfere with the website. Just observe. By convention, you should also follow the robots.txt guidelines.
The specific laws differ per country. Keep in mind though that you cannot show the actual site you crawled because they owners have copyright. However, you can (in most countries) distribute the results of your audit.
You can follow these steps to begin with:
Register for Amazon Web Services (AWS).
Register for Alexa Web Information Service.
Read how to submit requests to this service on:
http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AlexaWebInfoService/latest/.
Of course, for steps 1 and 2, you will have to pay...
you can use siteliner.com to help to develope the website aduit tool. siteliner is a website to offering website report such as duplicate content internal page, brokern link and many more. you can also see the smallseotools.com. site aduti tools.

I need to code a small admib panel that should get and display statistics from remote servers. The main problem here is that I need to do that ASAP. So the main question here is: to use CMS or not? I'm almost sure that deploying something big like Joomla or Drupal will not be quick. Still, maybe there's something easier that matces the following conditions.
has implemented security stuff (secure login, sessions and etc);
has implemented user/groups/privileges mechanism;
has an abbility of adding users for Super Administrator.
UPD. framework instead of CMS will do as well.
Are you familiar with codeIgniter ? If yes then it is what you want.
Bonfire
It is a CMS with full time functionality of user/groups/privileges mechanism and many more.

We're looking for a LMS that we can use as the basis for a new product we're rolling out.
As it's principally a content based thing, we need to base everything on a LMS, but there's a few things we need:
As we're supporting tens - hundreds of users, we ideally need a multi-tenant LMS (single shared code base), that can support different designs per site
As we're selling in functionality, we need something that will let us deploy a new 'module' and switch it on/off on a per site basis
We prefer stuff that is open source (PHP)
Before I consider building something, is there anything out there that's any good?
Here are a few opensource LMS alternatives:
http://www.dotlrn.org/
http://www.efrontlearning.net/
http://www.dokeos.com/
http://www.sakaiproject.org/
http://atutor.ca/
You can also look at SCORM Cloud that takes away a lot of headaches for deploying content. All you need is a frontend like Wordpress or Joomla.
As a free open source lms I would suggest Moodle - http://www.moodle.org.
Among commercial e-learning solutions I tried, I'd choose JoomlaLMS - http://www.joomlalms.com - it also has an open sourced version and is easy to set up.

The site that I am working on creates user sites like (domain.com/user). We want to show the users some web traffic statistics relevant to their own site, like how many views from facebook, twitter etc. Can you guys please recommend a solution which we can integrate into our PHP/MySQL based system? Or is it better to build one inside the system ourselves using mangoDB or something similar?
Any pointers would be appreciated.
For preference, unless you are using SSL, I would recommend implementing the sites as user.example.com/ rather than domain.com/user - it's much easier to configure your webserver to write seeprate log files / most off the shelf web analytics packages will split a log file from multiple vhosts into reports per vhost.
There's lots of tools available off the shelf - piwik, awstats, webalizer, analog
Google analytics is amazingly good value compared to most commercial offerings.
If you need to persist with your current naming schema, then consider using a too which relies on page tagging rather than log analysis.
Or is it better to build one inside the system ourselves using mangoDB or something similar?
I'd suggest that's very much a last resort - if you can't find what you need, then I'd recommend forking one of the open source packages.

I am designing a full featured website that includes a blog on the homepage. I want it to be full featured, but I dont want to spend forever coding it. Is there any good blogging system that can be easily integrated with CodeIgniter?
Honestly I would separate CodeIgniter from the blog code. If you look at many websites that have a blog these days, they will often have the main application at www.example.com and then host their blog at blog.example.com, where they will have an installation of Wordpress (which I recommend, since you already have a php/mysql stack) or something similar. You can still make this work if you'd prefer to have it at example.com/blog but depending on your site you may have to do some modification of things like your .htaccess file, as well as your blog system theme if you want it to look like the rest of your site.
Expression Engine 2.0 is built on CodeIgniter, and made by the same company Ellis Labs. It's pretty decent, and will be very familiar to you if you're already familiar with CI.
If you plan on making a public blogging platform, you can not use Expression Engine due to licensing violation. see: http://expressionengine.com/sales_faq/article/myspace_blogservice/
For a free alternative, try http://pyrocms.com/ . I have been thinking about implementing myself as I wish to implement a blog on my current site.
