Explanation
FLATCMS is one of the most simple Content Management System (CMS) there is. With FLATCMS the owner of a website can easily edit the content. This doesn’t require any knowlegde about websites or HTML.
You can install FLATCMS in any existing website or just use a html template. You provide the HTML-files with some editable region tags. FLATCMS will then know which parts it’s allowed to edit. It doesn’t matter if you made the HTML-files yourself or if they’re made by software like Dreamweaver, Frontpage, Studio Webdesign, WebCreator etc.
As an Administrator you have your own login code. This allows you to easily change the configuration, like hiding certain folders, switch on/off buttons for various properties settings in the (WYSIWYG) Editor or changing the language and set the login code for a user.
Demo
Go to http://www.flatcms.nl to look at the demo (admin and explanations)
I also made a small demo with a one page bootstrap template and flatcms.
Go to http://bootstrap.flatcms.nl/ and look into the source how I added the editable regions.
Go to http://bootstrap.flatcms.nl/admin/ to log in and see how it looks like in the admin ( login admin – 1 ). I made this example in 10 minutes !
Another demo has been made with my facebook landings page. I added some custom blocks so the content will be filled with facebook data but the user can add some extra text in those blocks. See Custom Text header http://facebook.flatcms.nl/
From there you can click to see the admin ( login admin – 1 ).
Installation
It’s really easy to install FLATCMS.
- Just put some tags
<!-- InstanceBeginEditable name="one" --> and <!-- InstanceEndEditable -->
around the text areas in your website, so a user can edit these text parts.
- Upload the html files and the admin dir to your server.
- Go to http://www.yoursite.com/admin/ and an installation wizzard will be shown.
- Fill in the required fields like username and pass and you are ready to go.
FLATCMS will directly scan you website for files with these tags and allow a user to edit these regions.
Take a look at the install manual (included in the installation wizzard)
Demo
You can login here to see a demo of FLATCMS. Because this is a demo none of the changes will be saved. For the admin login you can use (name) admin – (pass) 1 or as user (name) user – (pass) 1
Addons
You can easily add some of my other plugins to the TinyMCE wysiwyg like my TinyMCE 4 plugin Youtube search and insert , TinyMCE 4 plugin Flickr image search and place or TinyMCE 4 plugin Picasa/Google plus images
Some comments
“Everything. The whole thing is absolutely brilliant. Thank you for producing such a good quality product. I hope you stick around to provide support for this product for many years to come.

“Beautiful work, one of the best purchases I have ever made here, I strongly recommend .” – vsdesigner
“Eight months after the purchase of this script. Every day I like. HTML and PHP to work, static and dynamic pages. It is much more flexible than any cms. With a little imagination it becomes a design position. You can adapt any modern responsive themes within minutes. For those who doubt, which can clearly be in munti-language, multi-themes, and what you want. Let your work directly on the server, upload images and change sizes. It is intuitive and easy. Clean and fast results, no database required for the script itself. It installs in 1 minute. The support is very good, support and improvement suggestions. A great script. A grateful purchaser. Five stars Excuse me for my bad english.” – cesar52
