PHP-Nuke is a web based automated news publishing and content management system (a 'nuke') based on PHP and SQL. The system is fully controlled using a web-based user interface.
The system (up to version 7.5) has been released as free software under the GNU General Public License, but version 7.5 is now being charged for, at US $10 per copy. It requires a web server which supports the PHP extension (such as the Apache HTTP Server), as well as an SQL database (such as MySQL, mSQL, PostgreSQL, ODBC, Adabas, Sybase or Interbase).
Features of PHP-Nuke
The main aim of PHP-Nuke is to allow a webmaster to create a community-based portal (similar to that used by Slashdot), with an automated web site allowing users and editors to post news items (user-submitted news items are selected by editors). Users can comment on these articles using the comments system.
Modules may be added to the PHP-Nuke system, allowing the webmaster to add more features (such as an Internet forum or calendar) to their PHP-Nuke installation in addition to the core modules such as News, FAQ and Private Messaging. The whole system is maintained by administrators using the web-based admin section.
PHP-Nuke is able to support many languages, such as English, Portuguese and Thai. Its look and feel can also be customised (to an extent), using the Themes system, although some people have found it difficult to make the site look any different to the standard 2/3 column layout (as used by the program's official web site (http://www.phpnuke.org/)).
PHP-Nuke is now almost infamous for its security holes, as it is developed separately by many different people, and integration of everyone's code is a major problem. SQL injection is one of the most widely-known flaws in PHP-Nuke's security, although other methods of gaining access to the admin panel of a site running PHP-Nuke in under five minutes have been found. Security-conscious users of PHP-Nuke should consider switching over to a more stable and secure portal system, such as ocPortal.
