Cutenews : It's not that blog manager

Cutenews is a PHP news manager created some years ago, and it feels so old today. Since 2005, I use this news manager for Pokémon Espace and I can tell you it is very poorly programmed ; deprecated HTML tags used, any respect for W3C standards, and so disgusting PHP system, including the very deprecated « register_globals » supported everywhere. So many security issues, so painfully hacks we always must write to do that or that thing, Cutenews has really any strength point today.

So, you might tell me "Why are you still using this news manager ?"... Simplicity, that's all ; I haven't got enough time to program a complete PHP news manager, and well, with all the changes I did into the code itself, it works without any particular problem.

Well, if you want to get your own news manager for your website, I'll recommend you to avoid Cutenews, except if you know well PHP and have a lot of time to work on. At the end, I think if I already knew how to make a news manager in 2005, I would have spent less time programming it than choosing Cutenews, as I unfortunately did.

Oh, I forgot again... Would you guess how this blog was made ? With Cutenews, obviously... and in two or three hours only... I suppose I got used to it... :p
