Title: More Screen Castes Needed!
Post by: de-active on January 04, 2010, 05:05:14
Hi everyone,

Me with another thread! Elxis is great, but there is still a barrier for many non-CMS users who have not used say Joomlar or Drupal or are not webmasters or have a tehnical background in developing or programming, but want to use a CMS to cook up a quick website but Elxis doesn't seem to be the easiest thing to use! But all is not lost yet, Elxis is always developing so is it's forum, community, documentation (wiki ect) and support, to this end I came across two screen-caste one on how to install Elxis (Excellent! you can't go wrong with this one) and other one -not so great - on a quick overview of Elxis Administrator.

http://wiki.elxis.org/wiki/Screencasts

I would highly recommend you guys continue this great tasks of creating more screencastes for newbies to quickly get up and running even with a static website or more dynamic elements. Here are some suggestions



Basically make the embracing of Elxis easy for non-Elxis users so that more people adapt Elxis. Whoever did those screencastes, well done and keep up the good work!

Any input?

Kostas I want to create a screen cast for the Elxis shell pre-installer (http://www.elxis-downloads.com/com_downloads/patches/142.html), to show people how fast they can download and install Elxis with this tool (in less than 1 minute Elxis is up and running). But I have not the needed software or the time to do it. Can you also do that? There is a help article (https://www.elxis.org/guides/developers-guides/elxis-shell-pre-installer-how-to.html) but the video is much better and people should use the shell pre-installer as it is a great tool.
