Need advice - collecting plug-in | Forum

Hello Oxwall webmasters, 


We are currently developing a historical site in Gettysburg, Pennsylvania, where users will upload historical material. We are migration from our old website(powered by Omeka-S) to a new one powered by Oxwall. We need a Collecting plug-in that allows our visitors to upload their historical contributions. For example, if they were uploading information about Abraham Lincoln, they would include rare historical details about his life and a uniquely preserved photo of him. 


Is there such collecting capability in Oxwall? If not, could you recommend an alternative solution?

Oxwall is definitely capable of this!

You'll probably want to hire a developer to produce a private plugin for you...

Hello ViXiV Technologies, 


Thank you for your feedback-very helpful Since we are new to Oxwall, we have a few follow up questions:


1) Unlike other CMS providers, we do not see much support here. In other words, we don't see an active Oxwall admin/support team responding to people's queries. It looks like members like you help newly joined members. Is there a way to get in touch with the admins?


2) In terms of hiring a developer, can we hire developers on this forum? If not, could you point us in the right direction?

He begench, 


Unfortunately admins are not available as you wish.  We are all volunteers here as this is an open source project.   


Also you could help yourself in gathering facts if you stuck with one post on the subject, making several posts just makes things cazy with bits of info everythere :)   


If you have specific questions we would be glad to try to help you figure out what you need.
