In Building Websites With PHP-Nuke a book published in November 2005, Douglas Patterson has attempted to provide, in his words, A practical guide to creating and maintaining you own community website with PHP-Nuke.
It was brought to my attention by CodyG that my website was mentioned in the book :) so I contacted Doug and requested a copy of the book which he graciously gave me and in return I have agreed to read it and write a review. At first glance it does appear to be one of the better books written on the subject of PHP-Nuke. I will post my review here once I have completed it and submitted it to the publisher.
In addition to http://ravenphpscripts.com getting honorable mention for NukeSentinel™, Chatserv and http://nukeresources.com is mentioned, as well as http://www.karakas-online.de/EN-Book and a few others.
The book is very up to date as he uses v7.8 as his model. It does appear that this book is worth the reading for those needing a good book/tutorial on PHP-Nuke. It will help beginners as well as intermediate users, for sure.

Re: Building Websites With PHP-Nuke - New Book From PACKT (Score: 1) | | I'm looking forward to your review and as an intermediate user I'll be writing a review of my own. Building Websites with PHP-Nuke helped me, particularly with my attempts to build a custom theme. The theme section is step by step, hold your hand, development, from a nuke default theme to something completely different. It's the best theme tutorial I've seen. But with all that good stuff in the book, of course, there just had to be disappointment. If you only want a theme for the phpnuke side of life, and NOT the style for phpbb forums, then this section is for you. btw, while on his tour through Nuke I enjoyed the Douglas Paterson viewpoint, the way he gently talks of nukisms made me smile. |
