[Help] Making a CMS

[Notorious]

I've designed what this CMS is going to look like etc. The thing is, I don't know anything about coding. Could someone be kind enough to help a 'Newbie' out?

Check W3Schools out. There you can learn all the essential languages needed to code a CMS. I used t be like you, until I went there.

To be honest, if you are learning PHP, w3schools won't help. You should go to php.net to learn everything about PHP.

 

[Notorious]

Alright, will do. Thank's for your support.

W3Schools is where I learned HTML and CSS, it's really good for those 2 places. And you simply HAVE to learn them first.

Alright, will do. Thank's for your support.

w3schools is good for learning HTML and a bit about AJAX snippets, but

You must be registered for see links

is best for learning more about PHP, agreed.
If you need any help, feel free to contact me via PM, or pretty much anyone else.
And, may I suggest using Dreamweaver and Eclipse for coding PHP and HTML, as they have "Preview" and "Design" options to see a rough draft of what your code will look like on the web.

I already got an overview on how the CMS is going to look like, I made a 'Template' on how it's going to be layed out.

Layout looks really unorganized and unprofessional, and looks like too much is going on in such a little box. My advice, try to go a little bit towards the simple design, but a simple that catches the everyday human being eye.

Agreed, make a much more... simple, yet organized design.

Here are my tips:

1) Never ask for Help on how to make a CMS
2) Check out the Manual on PHP.net
3) Always test stuff out before asking on how to do something.

I know PHP but not alot. I thought myself from downloading top notch CMS' and then I would examine them out.

Thank's for the feedback.

Along with what previous members have said about learning, another great learning curve is trial and error.
Also the design you have is too big for such a confined space, the username and password fields are too big, also the big sky blue container looks horrible, maybe give it some transparacy (if thats how you spell it) so you can see the background image more.

But other than that good luck with your project
