| website control panel |
 |
|
Well folks finally decided on my final year project for my computer science degree, going to do a website control panel application whereby people can manage their sites files via the web without ssh or ftp skills / resources.
I'm looking for peoples ideas on the features which I could include:
I'm doing it in php so features has to be 'php compatible' as such.
So far I'm going to have all the file manipulation / information things like create, delete,rename, check and change permissions - stuff like that..
I will also like to include privaleages whereby the overall owner of the site can allow certain users to do certain things.
Stats - using php text processing ability to read the servers log file and then use this info to build a small but useful web stats facility.
automatic creation of navigation graphics in png or jpg (as far as I'm aware gif can't be done) using GD.
I want to have other features too but I don't want them to be tied to the server, I want them to work just wherever the php files are uploaded to so I think that would rule out certain email, dns features that one see's in 'cpanel' or dreamhosts.com panel for example.. maybe I'm wrong on that one though.
I may try and include a limited page editor too.
I'm totally new to php but learning it for my project will be the challenge I need. I got a book in the store yesterday called 'Beginning PHP' by six blokes, looks good but I wonder if anyone has this book themselves.
Anyway give us your thoughts on this project and on features which can be done in php for a site control panel.
