How everything works: step-by-step instructions
Frequently Asked Questions
We install the current stable version of MODx Revolution (by default), based on PHP 8.x and MariaDB. The environment is optimized to work with MODx: necessary PHP modules (pdo, curl, mbstring, zip) are included, and Nginx or Apache web-server is selected depending on the configuration. For large-scale projects you can connect Redis or Memcached, install a separate database server or activate CDN. All this can be easily configured through the panel or by request to support.
Advantages and features of MODx
For example, here are the features of MODx in comparison with other systems:
- In MODx there is no binding to any template or structure - the developer himself determines how the site will look like and how it will function.
- You can divide HTML code into blocks and manage them centrally. This is especially convenient for large projects.
- Add your own fields to page templates - be it text, images, galleries or anything else.
- The system allows you to fine-tune access levels for different user groups: editors, administrators, clients.
- Snippets are small PHP scripts that can be called anywhere on the site. They give you a huge number of options for customization. At the same time, you don't have to go deep into the core of the system.
- Even if you are not a developer, it is convenient and clear to work with content in MODx. Everything is logically organized, you can edit pages, manage the structure of the site, add modules and extensions.
- MODx provides convenient tools for easy customization of titles, meta tags and site structure.
- With the help of API you can connect external systems, build REST-services, make integrations with CRM, ERP and other platforms.
