Ella CMS

Ella is opensource CMS based on Django framework, designed for flexibility.

It is composed from several modules:

Ella core is the main module which links the rest together. It defines architecture on which other modules are built but doesn't do anything really usefull all alone.
Ella core plugins are plugins that are shipped in one package together with Ella. There are articles and positions which we consider to be a basic toolbox for each Ella site.
Other Ella plugins are standalone applications (and therfore not shipped with the core) that provide some specific functionality using Ella's architecture. We can mention polls, galleries, quizes and many more.

Feature highlights:

Simple organization of content based on categories
Efficent implementation of the published content
In-build photo formating backend
Django-admin ready
Plugin system
Flexibile
Scalable
Extensible
Caching-friendly
Well tested
Proven in production environment

Django > 1.8

For use with django > 1.8 add few ella templatetags dependencies to builtins TEMPLATES setting, see example below

TEMPLATES = [
    {
        'BACKEND': 'django.template.backends.django.DjangoTemplates',
        'DIRS': [],
        'APP_DIRS': True,
        'OPTIONS': {
            'context_processors': [
                'django.template.context_processors.debug',
                'django.template.context_processors.request',
                'django.contrib.auth.context_processors.auth',
                'django.contrib.messages.context_processors.messages',
            ],
            'builtins': [
                'ella.core.templatetags.core',
                'ella.core.templatetags.related',
                'ella.core.templatetags.custom_urls_tags',
                'django.templatetags.i18n',
                'ella.photos.templatetags.photos',
            ],
        },
    },
]

Django < 1.7

For use with django < 1.7 use south >= 1.0.0 or set SOUTH_MIGRATION_MODULES setting for ella modules to south_migrations directory (south >= 1.0.0 looks to south_migrations directory by default).

If you need migrate your project from ella 2.x to ella 3.x use django < 1.7 and south, then migrate your project and then you can upgrade to django 1.7 or higher.

News

Currently, we released the 3.x version which features a major cleanup of the code a removal of unneeded dependencies.

More news are on the way as we are going to make a nicely-tailored admin specifically made for the need of news writers and editors.
