I was trying to find some possible solutions to manage one administration panel for multi domains, but didn't find anything relevant.
Does anybody know if it is possible in Joomla 3.x? And if yes could somebody provide any possible solution, especially not commercial one?
Many thanks !
Use a Joomla extension that provides multi sites feature.

I prefer this Joomla multi sites extension by the way:

For security purposes id like to hide all references to the CakePHP framework that I have used to build my site. Can anyone offer any help on the best way to go about this pls? so far Google hasn't yielded any useful results.
The real, non-sarcastic answer is:
There's absolutely no reason to hide the fact that your app was built in CakePHP - for security purposes, or any other purposes. Just don't worry about it.
For debug mode 2 (which you must have for a production site) as far as i have seen only cookie has a mention of cakephp which you can remove simply using
Configure::write('Session.cookie', YourCustomCookieName);
I have a web application built using CakePHP framework and now I am in the process of internationalizing it. I started with the base set-up as outlined in the below article -
http://puskin.in/blog/2010/08/cakephp-manage-multiple-language-in-application/
and also add little bit of customization based on my previous question -
CakePHP: Internationalizing Web Application
To completely internationalize my web app, I would need to translate my drop-down/look-up content as well, like - categories, favorites, countries, bucket list etc.
What is the best way to design my tables and CakePHP samples? Can someone explain with a simple example and classes? Links or articles?
Lets say we have something like -
A user can create multiple posts, and each post has a category [science article, match article] etc in the drop-down and same we need to internationalize drop-down as well.
Two hints:
Read the manual of cakephp.
Look into the code of a available application (maybe croogo)
My open source project is translated.
It call CandyCane. A port of Redmine into CakePHP.
I also imported translation files from Redmine, so CandyCane supports numbers of languages from the beginning.

I've been asked to look in to creating and online database for sorting flash banners. So its kind of like a big resource library where our client can log on search and browser for old/existing banner creatives.
Does anyone have any recommendations on what I should do/look in to. CMS Framesworks etc.
I'm pretty sure I could use Wordpress for this job via custom post types etc. But I think there's probably a better solution out there. Drupal? Joomla? Expression Engine? Or would it be better to just create a basic cms from scratch.
Features needed:
Kick arse search functionality (am guessing the client will likely try to search for creative by year, month, campaign, banner type.
Smart navigation
Sharing is convenient
Must be able to demo working demos of expanding banners as well as non-expanding
CMS so new ads can be easily added to the library.
Thanks in advance for you knowledgeable insights :P
cheers
Although basic Joomla has own extension for this purpose, here:
http://extensions.joomla.org/extensions/ads-a-affiliates/banner-management , you have got a whole set of advanced extensions which do the job for you in Joomla. Read opinions and choose your favourite
We're planning for a multi language website, Any idea/tricks how can we achieve the same?
Are there some ready made components/plug-ins available in CakePHP like in open source technologies?
Kindly let me know.
Thanks !
CakePHP comes with its own i18n and l11n functions. They work well for my projects and if you don't have any other requirements they should be fine for you too. Have a look at the CakePHP book for more.
I was trying develop a website with Cakephp and Joomla... But lately I've been founding a lot of barriers that create difficulties implementing things that would have been a lot easier if I only developped using one of the components.
So, in your point of view (as someone with more experience than me), is it worth to integrate CakePhp with a CMS?
If yes, what do you think its the best and easier CMS to integrate with?
Or use Croogo (http://croogo.org/)
A CakePHP CMS. I like Croogo's implementation more than Wildflower and the admin UI looks a bit similar to Wordpress.
From my point of view i wouldn't try. I think there would be a lot of crossover functionality and a lot of conflict. Either use Cake and write a CMS and the other elements you want or pick a CMS and develop the other elements you want as add-ins/plugins.
Joomla, Drupal, Xaraya, Expression-engine etc are all extensible so pick the one that is the best fit and has the ability to be extended or maybe already has plugins you require.
Another option would be to use Joomla as the CMS and Cake for the other element you want, keep them as separate entities but skin then identically and make the navigation seamless. In this case about the only thing you would need to integrate would be state.
There are some out there already that are on Cake from the ground up. Wildflower for example

I have a cakephp site that is running wordpress in it's public_html/blog folder and it is doing great.
They are basically two separate sites, with two separate backend but it is fairly easy to create a model for the wordpress database if you want to pull in any data (eg. posts, pages, comments) and use it in the cakephp site.
As far a integrating the two I don't think it is a good idea if it needs to be a seamless experience for the backend users, most frontend users won't notice the difference because you can use the same style sheet and images.
If you want any more about my experiences with the combination let me know!
Cakeui is a rip of Croogo. Infinitas CMS could be what you're looking for if you want a full blown application or check this site for a list of good CakePHP Cms
As the developer of Croogo, I will be biased and recommend you to check it out at http://croogo.org. It comes with a web based installer too and you should be up and running in minutes.
Another CakePHP based CMS is Infinitas which has more features (including shopping cart). Both are based on the latest version of the framework (1.3 at the moment) and are actively developed.
I wrote a lot of CMS type apps with Cake and was thinking along the same lines. I've tried Joomla, Drupal and Wordpress but still had a dirty feeling in my mouth that I was failing by using Cake just for the sake of it or vice versa.
The most important common denominator, in my experience, is the back-end. It is re-used most often, but gets the least input.
Now I have built my own CMS with CakePHP. The intention is to 'opensource' it, but it's not quite ready yet.
I don't think it is worth the headache trying to combine, then maintain Cake and a 3rd party CMS. Save your best modules and components and build your own. The blog tutorial will give you a good head start and you can cherrypick what you like from other sources, rewriting it to suit your ideals. The benefit is you will then know the CMS inside out and have it working just the way you want. You'll learn a lot along the way as well.
