Any Before and After Examples?

[Mr101]

Hi everyone,

I was on another forum asking about website editing software for servers and was referred to WebsiteBaker.

Does anyone have some before and after examples?  I'd like to setup a client with an online editor without losing their current design.

thanks,

Rats - I never thought to save the before image! Hmm... wayback machine... yes! mostly at least.

The home page WB version is fairly similar to the prior version of this site (a hard to use hosted cms). 

Well, the layout is similar - I re-did the writing, logo, photo, buttons and is much better-looking overall.

Not a before and after picture but lifesites
www.farel.nl, www.corlaer.nl, www.corderius.nl and www.prisma-college.nl are NON wb
www.meerwegen.nl = wb

They are dutch websites, so if you can't read it...

Look at the source too, the source of wb is much better (especially around the menu)

Why www.meerwegen.nl in WB and not the rest?
Needed a much better way to enter jobvacancys (needed to delegate it)
Need an intranet (user/passwords etc - not yet implemeted)

The other sites are in another cms btw. Each school has its own webmaster and we need to keep the layout as uniform (besides the colours) as possible to maintain our identity

Adapting a site to WB seems pretty easy.
I'm going to do it to another site as soon as I get the time to sit down and do it.
Hmm. I should try and see just how fast I can get it up.

Anyway, look at:
http://projects.websitebaker.org/websitebaker2/wiki/Docs-EN-TemplateTutorial

and you'll see just how easy it is: basically take your original html/php, strip out hard-coded differences betweeen your pages (eg. the title, menus and contents), insert the WB variables, and you're done. If you want to be able to swap templates, search, etc, then it's not much more work.
