Storyteller or Contenteller Questions

Hello Phillip.

I'm really digging the features and all the information on this site about your software, but I have a few of my own questions about it before I pick which suite to use.

1. I run a computer review site that uses RSS feeds to help me build that days reviews. Once the reviews are a week old, I archive them into their categories (ie: cases, video, audio, or etc). If I create a "Video Cards Channel" inside my News, will I be able to archive all my video card reviews to this channel alphabetically or is it just by date?

2. How many blocks can you display horizontally on the main page? One per day or one per news posting?

3. Based on my previous questions, which should I go with ST or CT? If I starting using the CT Preview 6, will I have to buy the final release? I'm trying to do my site on the cheap until I can get enough hits on it to start making a little money back. I don't know if I will have $99 come December for the final release.

Thanks and good work Phillip.

Zend/ioncube are PHP encoders. The current preview releases are encoded because of expire date. The release candidates as well the final release will no longer require Zend/ioncube after they are visible source.

Not familiar with Zend or Ioncube? What exactly are those?

The news is sorted by date. However, with a small modification it can be changed to alphabetically.

2. How many blocks can you display horizontally on the main page? One per day or one per news posting?

One per post and the new items can be also grouped by day.

3. Based on my previous questions, which should I go with ST or CT? If I starting using the CT Preview 6, will I have to buy the final release? I'm trying to do my site on the cheap until I can get enough hits on it to start making a little money back. I don't know if I will have $99 come December for the final release.

I would suggest Contentteller. Preview 6 can be upgraded later to both the paid commercial version and the free open source version.
