Good News

Simple blogging plugin for October CMS developed by LOVATA.

Overview

Good News is a simple and easy-to-use blogging plugin. It's provided free of charge and includes the following set of features:

• Managing posts
• Managing categories
• Adding categories list to the site navigation
• Adding latest posts block to the page
• Adding filtered category block to the page

Please note, the architecture of the plugin allows extending the existing methods, fields and other data without interfering with original source code!

The development of Good News plugin is guided by the similar philosophies of October CMS and Unix like operating systems, where the main focus is to create simple microarchitecture solutions that communicate with each other through smart APIs.

One one hand, this approach allows keeping performance, security, and functionality of the code to a high standard. On the other hand, it provides a clean and smooth back-end UI/UX that isn't over-bloated with the features.
