How have you discovered Hotaru CMS?

I think am new to this cms.
I tell you it look good but how do you download it. I have tried from the forum but just a single file is coming.how do you get this.

i googled and i was looking for a social cms that does some good work like digg and here i am but i have not been able to download it yet

 

I too had taken a hard look at Pligg. Found some sweet reviews about Hotaru (also looked at Drigg and Social CMS) and decided on Hotaru.

Just installed it on http://cooking.edu.pl/

Nothing there now except the blank installation. Went very smooth and quick. So impressed.

Did have a question on the database prefix. It kind of threw me. My databases are prefixed with my username as in
xxxxxxxx_

So when I created a database "hotaru" it becomes xxxxxxxx_hotaru

I tried this prefix xxxxxxxx_hotaru and it did not work

I tried this prefix xxxxxxxx_ and it worked like a champ.

Still somewhat confused.

Great product so far!

Thanks

Ron

 

i found hotaru by searching "faves.com like bookmarking CMS" via google

 

i goggling and found hotaru

 

Hotaru is a great CMS.

A friend of my brother told me about told me about the benefits of hotaru.

 

I have been using pligg with not very desirable results. Then I read about Hotaru on some forums. I am very impressed with the design and functions. I have downloaded Hotaru, but I need help in installing it on my site. I couldn't do it following the docs and other install instructions myself. Not very tech-wise Can you suggest someone, please?

Best Regards

 

Maybe if you could tell us where are you having trouble, some people here could help you out. Is it setting up the database? or something else?

 

I was looking for a social bookmarking script and found Pligg. I spent some time viewing their forums, etc.. the smarty templates was a little disappointing but I was almost going to install it, I had already downloaded it but then accidentally I found Hotaru doing a search and changed my mind and installed it instead. You can check it at: http://www.voxr.com.br/

 

I'm pretty much the same. I found it after being so frustrated with Pligg and trying to find an alternative. Hotaru is almost perfect.

What's next though?

 

i Googled ''open source cms'' then i clicked the forst page opensourcecms.com, from there i discovered Hotaru CMS.

So far I like it, have to see if I get and use on my websites.

 

I have several sites with pligg, but I have problems with my hosting company because database was too large and made too much queries which made problems at my shared hosting account. After several tickets ( database access suspended - Please note this account was suspended because due to database usage and not CPU load. Our experience shows that the pligg script does not use database resource efficiently and would benefit from the ability to perform database caching but such an option does not exist for pligg to my knowledge), I've decided to find solution. I've googled problem and I found review at one forum ( I don't remember the name, sorry ) for your program and at this moment I'm transfer everything from my old pligg to Horatu. It's a little bit slow, but I hope that finally I've find solution for my problem.
When I'll finish I'll share my experience about this transfer with other people.

 

I'm running a website based on pligg... While I appreciate pligg and it's community, I wasn't too crazy about it. I started searching for alternatives and stumbled upon HotaruCMS. It's easy to understand and customize, good documentation, extremely flexible and truly modular. I couldn't be happier and I'm in the middle of moving my site from pligg to Hotaru. On a negative note, I hear few people mentioning it on being abandoned/dead... I hope it's not true and if it is, why is that happening? I'd appreciate you wonderful people's response...

 

google search

 

then after i also found a friend of mine on the forum

 

I googled for and alternative to tikiwiki and found pligg, but I was not convince. I finaly had a look back to the list of CMS software gallery displaid to Hostgator customers, and found Hotarus CMS There.

 

it was offered as a part of the hosting package oh hostgator.com

Good choice I see...

 

I own a web hosting company. I was browsing through Softaculous AutoInstaller I have configured on my server. I am going to be installing it on a dead site that I own to check it out.

 

I stumbled onto hotaru cms recently (from one list or the other listing various CMSs) .. It does look very very promising. However, have folks posting here observed that the project seems somewhat quiet, as in no longer being advanced ? .. Seems funding is the primary issue, as I read in another thread.

Can those of us posting here on how much better it is than pligg, drigg, reddit, etc .. put our monies where our mouths are .. and see how we can support this project so it does not die away? Just a thought ..

 

Exactly same
