What Types Of Websites Can Vivvo Be Used For

[KrazySlick]

I have been looking over the Vivvo CMS Script and i have a few questions before i decided weather or not this will work for me or not.

What i would like to know is will Vivvo work for a recipe website and if so are there resources available to make it work for a recipe site or would i have to hire a programmer to be able to use it as a recipe website where users can login submit there own recipes, comment recipes and also be able to rate recipes, print recipes as well as email recipes?


Also another question i have is would Vivvo work for an Automobile community website? I currently have one running on vBulletin. Are there many resources available to license holders to make this script work with any type of website?

Hi there, thanks for joining our community and evaluating Vivvo :)

I know for one recipe website powered by Vivvo that friend of mine runs - http://matwebb.se/

Now, you probably won't be able to have a good recipe website out-of-the-box (that is, composed just using available widgets/plugins from our Resource Center). You'll probably need an integrator that can tailor this a bit to be really good. Vivvo has plenty of available resources that will cut down this work to a minimum. Rating/commenting/voting is a standard option, Submit Story plug-in will let your community submit a recipe, but I guess you'll also want some enhancements that can be easily done. Matwebb.se is done out-of-the-box, but if I were to do a recipe website, I'd surely use custom fields to add i.e. preparation time and skill needed to make a dish. This way you can easily drill down the search only to recipes with <30mins of prep. time and with no skill needed to make (like boiling an egg :)) Just a thought...

Let me know if you make this live, I'm a fan of cooking myself :)

Same applies for Automobile website. Using custom fields feature you can easily expand article body and add fields needed for cars, etc.
