bridging two worlds…
What is flashpress?
flashpress is a theme framework that allows you
to manage a full flash site using WordPress as the CMS!
Why build flashpress?
The use of the WordPress CMS in Flash overcomes many obstacles involved with maintaining and updating a Flash site.
Let’s face it, it’s expensive and timely working in Flash!
Some Benefits1. Client side management for Flash content/media
2. Easy blogging in Flash
3. A simple way to add a Database to Flash
4. Plus all the other benefits of WordPress!
The flashpress architecture
How does it all Work?
Because flashpress is a theme framework all we need to do is copy the fp php files to our themes directory. Then we need to copy the Flash theme/class directory to the root of our WP install.
The flashpress architecture
WP root
• wp-admin
• wp-content
• wp-includes
• flash
• *.php
wp-content \ themes \ themename
• images
• flashpress.class.php
• fp-add-comment.php
• fp-posts.php
• fp-search.php
• *.php/css
The Flash files
When developing a Flash site your require 2 essential directories, deploy which contains the final output and source which contains all working files, libraries, utils, etc…
deploy
• *.swf
• AC_RunActiveContent.js
• index.html
• fullscreen.html
source
• *.fla
• *.as
• com and other custom packages (pv3, tweener, utils, etc…)
Enough talk!
Where we are?
There’s still a lot of work to do!
