History
RavenNuke CMS began in November, 2005, as a distribution of PHP-Nuke that included the Nuke Patched security
improvements and fixes from NukeFixes.com, the NukeSentinel security add-on from NukeScripts.net, and other
pre-installed add-ons. [2] [3] The initial drivers of RavenNuke were the lack of support provided by the author of
PHP-Nuke and the implementation of fees to gain access to the latest versions of PHP-Nuke. [4]
The March, 2007, release of RavenNuke 2.10.00 included over 10,000 changes, fixes, tweaks, and add-ons and
marked RavenNuke CMS' introduction as a fork. [5]
Features
RavenNuke includes the basic Content Management / Portal functionality of PHP-Nuke but without the recognized
and unfixed security concerns of the code upon which it is based. [6] [7] RavenNuke also includes advanced user
management, extensive group access permissions, an event calendar, advanced newsletter, the ability generate feeds
in RSS and ATOM formats for most content types at multiple levels, the ability to display RSS and ATOM feeds,
customizable error document handling, site / legal documents, support for friendly URLs, improved email handling,
integrated light box and tool tip functions, and 17 W3C-compliant themes. An extensive security system
(NukeSentinel) [8] is built in for additional protection.
RavenNuke allows webmasters to create a dynamic community-based portal, with automated content, allowing users
and editors to post a wide variety of data such as news articles, forum posts, reviews, polls/surveys, and calendar
events. It allows webmasters to automatically generate and override HEAD section tags (title, description and
keywords) used by search engines, send HTML newsletters, and track site usage. RavenNuke is compatible with all
modern browsers and generates XHTML 1.0 Transitional and CSS 2.1 compliant pages. Additional third party
