What you're looking for is a CMS (Content Management System). There are
a ton of free solutions out there, but if you want to stick with
ColdFusion, check out Mura (http://www.getmura.com/)

I have only created one very small application using Mach-II to see if
I can do it and that was several months ago. So I am not proficient at
this and I need to figure out if I can do a large project or not.
The church I attend would like to develop a new website. I created
something simple for them in Frontpage years ago but they would like
to expand and have part of the site open to the public and part of the
site for members only. I immediately thought of using Mach-II to do
this because of the drop in features for login use but I would have to
code the entire thing myself and only in the evenings after work. I
will not be getting paid for this.
Does anyone have a template out there that would give me a good
starting point?
I need to have a login.
Database storage (I can handle creating a database but until I find a
suitable hosting site I do not know what database will be available.)
They would like to be able to have a photo gallery
Post online version of their printed bulletins.
store and play MP3s of the sermons
An event Calendar
and possibly do DVD's but that would be a much later project.
I have to make this extremely user friendly because the staff at the
church have minor computer skills. I was thinking of having an
additional Admin login for them and then webpages with data entry
boxes that would store their messages in the database and then all the
main website pages would build their pages from those database tables.
That way all content would be easily modified without changing code.
I am mainly an Oracle PL/SQL developer by profession so I have limited
abilities other than my own training on web design.
So you can see why I am looking for a template to jumpstart this
project.
If this is not doable then the church will have to go to some site and
pay to have it designed and built which could be costly.
Thanks
