After nearly spending a year trying many different things, I finally got the website's template management script working just the way I want it.
The entire template management script is something I wrote myself in PHP using InnoDB tables in MySQL and some text files to cache templates that are used most often.
I spent the most time developing this script designing the database structure and even a little more time making the conditional template work as it should.
Next, I am going to work on connecting the user database from GIDForums™ to this site so members can use their GIDForums™ data to login here and at every other new site that I will build.
I am so excited.... :)
