ribbonCMS was shut down ages ago. But you can say that this is the "spiritual successor" to the project.

As of version , you can manage navigation links.

It is in active development. The first release can be found here:
 
As of the latest commit in the branch, a new theme has been added which does not use AJAX. I have also tidied up models and controllers.
However, I have been forced to break airbnb because of Mongoose.

The branch will be merged with master within a week or so.

In the latest development update, I have added statistics as a core feature. It is not available in the production release yet as I still need to implement a way for admins to view it. However, if you do not want to use the stat feature, it can be disabled in the .env.


 
Arabesque has been updated in the branch, which adds statistics viewing in both pages and posts.

Change of background image. I have decided to make the theme a little darker this time.

The log in page is pretty much final. However, the rest is still a work in progress from the forms, to alerts to a lot more.

If you dislike this, don't worry as the classic theme can still be found in the .
 
The final result of the arabesque.

Added rounded corners in non-list entities and inner shadows to make the glass effect more genuine.

Long time no see! Not much over the past few months, but there are minor updates during March (2019.3.27) where I pushed an update to the stable branch for better support of plugin development. And in the master (development) branch right now (2019.5.9), I have started adding RSS support for the main blog feed. The RSS support will expand to authors and tags soon.

I have also removed the obnoxious background image (bar the login screen) on arabesque.
