πŸ‘€ Software Overview πŸŽ‰

pH7 Dating CMS is a scalable social community CMS based on a powerful modular OOP and server-side rendering architecture, using the MVC architecture (Model-View-Controller).

It is designed with the KISS principle in mind, and the whole source code can be read and understood in minutes. For better flexibility, the software uses PDO (PHP Data Objects) abstraction which allows the choice of the database. The principle of development is DRY (Don't Repeat Yourself) aimed at reducing repetition of information of all kinds (no duplicate code) and YAGNI principle to avoid unused code/not needed functionality in the software.

This Free and Open Source Social Dating Site Builder aims to be low resource-intensive, powerful, stable and secure.

Based on pH7Framework, a framework written specifically for this project, the CMS also comes with 40 system modules ready to be used.

To summarize, pH7Builder gives you the perfect ingredients to create the best online dating service or social networking website on the World Wide Web!

  • Operating System Linux/Unix (Red Hat, CentOS, Debian, FreeBSD, Mandrake, Mac OS, etc.), Windows.

  • Web Server Apache with mod_php or with PHP in CGI, FastCGI mode (nginx, LiteSpeed and IIS should also work. You might have to change some pieces of code and change the URL rewriting to make it work).

  • Specific Requirement Server has to be connected to Internet.

  • Minimum Web Space 2.0 GB

πŸ›  Installation

  • Git Repository:

πŸ— Nginx Configuration

In order to get pH7Builder working on nginx server, you need to add some custom nginx configuration.

Create /etc/nginx/ph7builder.conf and add the following:

location / {
    try_files $uri $uri/ /index.php?$args;
    index index.php;
}

Please note that the above code is the strict minimum and obviously you can add more rules by comparing with the main Apache .htaccess file.

Finally, in your nginx server configuration, you will have to include ph7builder.conf file to complete the configuration like below:

In file, e.g., /etc/nginx/sites-enabled/yoursite.conf for Ubuntu and other OS based on Debian or /etc/nginx/conf.d/yoursite.conf for CentOS and other OS based on Red Hat.

server {
    # Port number. In most cases, 80 for HTTP and 443 for HTTPS
    listen 80;

    server_name www.yoursite.com;
    root /var/www/ph7builder_public_root;
    index index.php;
    client_max_body_size 50M;

    error_log /var/log/nginx/yoursite.error.log;
    access_log /var/log/nginx/yoursite.access.log;

    # Include ph7builder.conf. You can also directly add the "location" rule instead of including the conf file
    include /etc/nginx/ph7builder.conf;
}

For more information, please refer to the nginx documentation.
