Site Message

Hi and welcome to Ode (pronounced oh-dee). Glad you stopped by.

Important: Ode is very new.

In the coming weeks I intend to post a lot of information to this site, and of course the complete project (including a set of sample themes and documentation) will be available for you to download.

Please do check back or subscribe to this site's feed if you're interested.

Simple upgrades

Upgrading Ode involves replacing a single file. Because configuration details are kept out of the script itself (and your content, themes, and addins are unaffected by an upgrade) all that's required is replacing the current version of the script with the new one.

Simple Configuration

There is a single configuration file. A default config file is available for download (and included in the bundles and XAMPP packages). All of the configuration options are well documented and include sample settings to help resolve any ambiguity in the description of what these options do and how they should be set.

What's more, you won't find dozens or hundreds of options. Expect to spend no more than 5 - 10 minutes configuring Ode, the majority of it reading through the descriptions of the various settings. That time will save you potentially many hours trying to resolve problems due to misconfiguration.
