MageDB theming started
Hi,
I started theming MageDB with the following goals in mind:
- clearly vissible where you hold your mouse regarding file/category lists
- easy and intuitive interface
- easy to use
- easy for the eyes
- color variation but not to much
- Works in all major browsers + ie 6 and 7
NOTE: the “There are no…” text is there just for me to see how that looks. In this case both those lines should be gone.
And the result of that is this:
Things i still have to do in the layout:
- Improve the login/password/go fields
- minor css fixes
- Make a file view, download view… and everything else i can think of.
The rough lines are done now. Right now it’s all just a mather of fine tuning before i can start on the administration panel. And then, once that’s done, MageDB is finally ready to get an release candidate release! And i hope i’m at that point by the end of next week.
Btw. sorry for the ugly downscale of the image above. WordPress seems to be a bit broken on my site. If i can’t get it fixed fast i will probably reinstall it.
That’s it for now,
Mark.


Thank you! I would now go on this blog every day!
Thank you
good to know that at least one person is waiting for MageDB to get released ^_^ I think i will have a new update either today or tomorrow. right now working on the file view.
Hi MArc,
I am following this blog too.
MageDB hopefully will be a good replacement for paFileDB. My previous atempts to find an alternative that is under constant development often resulted in non-existent websites and outdated scripts. My testing of RW :: Download first was very promising, but theier website seems to be down now. Now I’m having an eye on PHCDownload, wich has lots and lots of really cool features. But I’m wondering if this script is under constant development, because theier forums are full of unanswered support requests…
Now I’m back here, hoping that your script could give my journy a happy end!
