I used to use Etomite until I saw it’s MODX fork. I liked what I saw and I never looked back. I have produced some really great sites with MODX and I would thoroughly recommend it for any small to medium web site.

I cannot give MODX a big enough wrap.

So I was thinking after releasing my latest MODX site that I have never seen anyone offering high quality training for MODX users. There is a simple explanation for this (and almost every other CMS really):

every implementation is unique.

Any great product can become a dog if implemented poorly. This is the sad truth. So through my association with wwwtraining, I have encouraged the development of a MODX editor course:

Editing your MODX site, a course with features like:

  • creating and editing pages
  • editing values and parameters
  • simple tips to make your site run faster
  • how to enable MODX SEO features
  • creating users
  • and just about anything else MODX can do!

wwwtraining can customise training for you and even offer tips to improve a poor implementation if you want it.

BTW – I am also a big fan of Infoglue but that is my preferred Open Source CMS for enterprise grade clients. I have a number of government clients using it.
