request Help building a website

[Lightning-flickr 214]

Hello! I really need help building a website. I will be willing to pay for hosting ect. but I need it to be able to do a couple things.

1)host messaging between 2 people

2) Have offline and online notifications 

Those are the main 2 things I need really... But if I could get someone who's techy on this that'd be fantastic!

Oxwall is a free. Check it out. If you are wanting to code, then pay for PHPFox, if you don't care about coding, go with Oxwall.

I just looked at PHPFox but that was like $99. I that a one time payment thing or do I have to pay that monthly or yearly ect.?

Weebly is alright....Of course it depends on what you are doing/planning to do with it...

It is a one time fee, though $99 doesn't get you crap, we use the $300 version.

I'm currently using weebly but I need to do more with it. It almost needs to be like facebook, but not... If that makes any sense.

I DON'T HAVE BLOODY $300! Humm. I guess I could raise some money. The website I'm starting is for charity so I might be able to get money. Is your website up and running? I'd love to see if it has everything I need before I spend 300 bucks.

Our website is not a social networking site. We gutted the code and redid it as a video hosting site with social elements. There are tons of social networking sites that run on the PHPFox engine, I believe if you look around a bit you can find them, and PHPFox itself even has a demosite you can play with.

I see. I think I will need to get the $300 one for it to do everything I need it to. I noticed it said "includes 90 days of support." what does that mean? Also is the software easy to learn?

It depends on what you mean by easy to learn.

 

- If you use the block system, and a preset theme with little modification, yes.

- However, as ALL block based code, it is a pain to edit. It was hair ripping to redo the code.

 

The 90 days of support is very useful if you have a question.

I might have a problem then I only took one class about script in high school and I failed that anyway. God this is becoming a huge hassle /:

It all depends on what type of site you are trying to setup. You can do allot without coding anything with PHPFox. However, if you want a secure site, you need a coder.

So basically what I need is a site that is mainly information that only a couple of people can edit (Like equestria daily) but then also a messaging system and a thing that tells you when people are online.

Might want to look into wordpress and extend with a plugin.

Well, idk...ugh I did learn basic web coding in high school, I just really don't feel up to even attempting something like this! Why don't you just play around with some codes or something, in fact I think it would be great to try to build the website yourself, ugh...maybe me or someone on this forum could attempt to help possibly?

no one's going to make you a web page for free, I do commissions how ever and would be happy to if I were payed, however you could always you a website creator like Webs, but I don't recommended it, It's kind of limited.

It's fine. My friend built me a free thing for the moment but I'll get a real website after a while.
